There are, after all, only so many managers around.

You're having affair with Mrs McKenna 😲

and they'll be digging the foundations for the new fan zone soon

Yep, I'm expecting it to be very cordial. Journos will ask their questions and...maybe RDZ will say "it's already been stated in yesterday's press release"...as if 🤦🏼‍♂️. But I do expect it to be ok. I think both sides are happy with the last two years, and also how it's ended. No problemo.

Definitely. Enrico and RDZ work very well together, although sometimes RDZ still went off on a tangent to answer. It grates with me too (2004, 2006, 1973... that'll be Milner 🤣) drives me nuts!

It's all sounding very mafia-like

you forgot... Enrico translates for Roberto...or for PB... depending on the dynamic. I'll miss Enrico actually 😉

Good point re Lallana

We could sell the flag to RDZ...or his new club if it's announced soon.

Oh, I see what you mean!! None of those threads for a few weeks then 😂

The timing is great. Closure for the season, closure for RDZ, closure for the fans. Big credit to TB and PBOBE for not faffing about 👍

Well, we won't have any more of those threads unless the new guy is also young and very good 😂

The king is dead! ........ Long live the king!

Exactly this...or, possibly, RDZ thought the club would change the way it worked after getting us to 6th and into Europe. I dunno.

Yes, understood - in which case I wish the west would give Ukraine the weaponry to actively push back the Russians. I appreciate that may not happen across the whole front line, but if Ukraine were in the ascendancy in many areas we might well see Russia propose peace discussions, as their gains...

Yes, anything would have to be done 'with immediate effect', no pre-announcements from NATO that 'we are working on the possibility of...blah di blah...'. Organise in secret, then do it.

and their chances of a decent career elsewhere, in time, are good I'd imagine.

I wonder if NATO would ever drop that entry requirement of peaceful borders,🤔. Maybe "Ukraine can join...and if Russia doesn't stop the aggression within 6 months then NATO will attack". Hmm ... it's clear I'm not destined for a diplomacy career.

Wow, they're cutting out the middle man (i.e. us!) - that'll save them 18 months, and 50 mill...possibly, or not.

Excellent piece from Kallas - she is very good and correct to call out the European countries that don't see a bigger risk if Ukraine loses. Feeling like a European army and agreement is needed, a subset of NATO if you like, but one that can act unilaterally without US approval if needed. I...
