Oof, good luck Slavia Prague

Napoli Genk and Salzburg, will take that

The only thing I know about Genk, is that they used to be called KFC Winterslag.

I want them to win the whole tournament

Bermuda has a club called "Flanagan's Onions F.C". Nearly as good as Guam's "Quality Distributors".

Not bad CL league schedule this. Would rather not be playing City or Spuds same week as CL fixtures but at least the PL fixtures are at home

 

[Badgers]

City have a tougher looking November which is pleasing.



Away in Italy on Wednesday. It should be a stroll (like their whole group) for City but they WANT that CL trophy badly. Flying back on Thursday for a couple of days before heading to Fortress Anfield on Saturday for a 3pm kick off.

In other rankings

Top 100 highest earning 'sports people' has a fair few footballers (only two F1 drivers as an aside) but only one LFC player coming in 98th.

Behind..

Pogba in 44th
Sánchez in 53rd
Ozil in 57th
Bale in 89th

Not that money matters but it is interesting to see talent vs reward and happiness.

There’s no chance in hell that’ll be a 3pm Saturday kick off (although it would be great if it was). Those games aren’t televised and this one will definitely be on tv. I’m guessing they’ll move it to a Sunday 4pm game.

Mildly getting obsessed with our socks this season. Clearly a number of players don’t like the two toned ness of them. Number of them seem to have the green either taped up or something or much lower down and then others high and proud. It’s rather distracting.

mane to score first.

Is there radio coverage of this?

Good game good game.

Bit concerned there with Mane the way he reacted getting subbed. Don’t think he was happy with Salah glory hunting and not passing. Maybe they don’t get on well after all?

Still 13 in a row record breakers! Ynwa.

 

[Badgers]

I would be more concered if Mané did not have that level of passion.

Salah, Mané and Firmino are all hunting records. Regardless it was a 3-0 win against a tough PL side

Napoli will be a very nasty occasion, mark my words.

Napoli will be a very nasty occasion, mark my words.

Yup would be a huge bonus to start the CL group campaign with an away win at Napoli.

Early kick off home to Newcastle on the 14/09 then all remaining September games are away.

17/09 Napoli - CL
22/09 Chelsea - PL
25/09 MK Don's - EFL
28/09 Sheff Utd - PL

Burnley vs Liverpool MOTD

 

[Badgers]

Mane's streak of playing 50 games at Anfield without losing is a longer streak than any other player has achieved on any other ground in Premier League history (W40 D10).

Mane sets remarkable Liverpool record with bit of Southampton help

Do I have it right that the front three will all be resting/training over the international break? Fabinho too?

Good to give Allison and Keita a bit more time to mend too

That is the good news. The bad news is that the international break is shit and nobody really cares.

 

[Badgers]

Lionel Messi will be allowed to leave Barcelona on a free transfer next summer, should the 32-year-old Argentina forward desire, owing to a clause in his contract.

Wages might be a bit too cheeky

 

[Steel Icarus]

Why would he go anywhere else? I wouldn't. I don't think I'd even particularly want a 33 year old Messi
