Although GM did not see how badly CB had hurt himself, he has played against him enough that he should have known that Bradley is just not the sort of player to exaggerate injury. It’s clear that he is a shy young man incapable of histrionics. Martinelli judged him by his own lower standards.

And when we did manage to fire dangerous balls across the box, no-one anticipated them. Just expecting the inevitable recycling, I guess.

I get that good teams don’t want to just aimlessly cross into the box but you have to mix it up and keep the defence guessing. All these triangles (left side particularly) to just end up going back and across the other side to repeat is ridiculous.

Slide a yard to the right to block a cross but don’t slide directly into his legs!

I break out in hives every time Konate has the ball at his feet and there’s an opponent within 15 yards.

Certainly seems that way. Unless the substitution was a reaction to him picking up a yellow…

Great to see him play like this but can it translate to the blood and thunder of the PL?

Yeah, surprised VAR didn’t review that. (Or did they?)

Saw that last night. He was so genuine. “Come on man, of course I want yours in return.” Good guy.

Any plans to ever return to the traditional route from City Hall? I have participated in the shorter route and it’s over in a heartbeat!

Salah knows, like we all do, that his agent is negotiating with the club. He’s just trying to get the club to cede a little to placate the fans that are riled up at the prospect of Mo walking away. He is selfish enough to not consider the timing in relation to the upcoming games.

After Michael O’Neill’s young guns clinched automatic promotion to Nations League B, is it time for your biennial cursory 10-second mention of the Northern Ireland team, Max?
