I don't Believe Real would agree to giving us Ødegaard in exchange for Pogba, but we would be mad not to ask

Nah, I’m good for now :drool:

Edit: although, while I have your attention. Do you know if the Astana match will be on Sumo next week? I can’t find anything.
It's on Sumo and hopefully one of the tv channels as well. I don't have Sumo.

He doesn't care for out NT. Like at all.
I know a few like that. I don’t get how someone can be into club football and not even take a passing interest in their own NT, but whatever ;P

Watch some of them flip when we begin another Norwegian golden age.

I'm trying to turn him around and could do with some help. Tbh I haven't been the most engaged either and have been watching with one eye, but it's a lot more fun if we get half decent again.

The nationalteam under the current coach is a complete mismatch.

For the first time we have players available that can actually control the ball, yet we have a manager that prefers football like it was played 20 years ago. That being said, there are few, if any, Norwegian managers that have a style that would suit a generation of technical able footballers.

Lagerbeck is old so give him a break. And I have no idea who could replace him and do a better job. How are RBK playing of late?

Completely agree. Obviously Odegaard is a huge talent and probably more renowned for being at Madrid etc. but Sander Berge, Erling Haaland, Kristoffer Ajer, Birger Meling (love this guy) et al. Bright future, hopefully they'll all blood in together for the 2022 World Cup.
First half CL hat trick tonight. Baller.

This one and Haland represent a good generation of Norwegian players coming in. I told before it was too soon to write him off based on a 15/16 year old not being good enough for Real Madrid, ridiculous was to think with 18/19 years old he would be a starter for them.

My god. He’s created 3 chances and a magnificent assist in 18 minutes.

And works very hard as well. He’s pressing like no one else on the pitch.

Every single one who wrote him (or any 15 year old kid) off should be put in a user group that is universally ignored.
