He is, but Arteta and Zidane had not managed anyone else before Arsenal and Madrid, yet they were both given a chance. Maybe we should do the same, especially if there is no other obvious candidate.

Watched the first episode of Masters of the Air. It's a promising start. Doesn't match Band of Brothers yet, but it's only the first episode. It has potential.

If things properly kick off then I'll happily sign up for the Women's Auxilliary Balloon Corps.

Was going to happen one day. He's been a wonderful chapter of our history. Hopefully the Xabi Alonso (manager) chapter will be as fondly remembered.

Xabi Alonso dislikes this thread.

He did ok. I think people forget he's only 20, which is credit to him.

He's really very good. Seems confident too. Could have a top class right back on our hands here.

Very sad. Biden will look the other way. Trump will support it. The rest of the world will do nothing except talk.

Gnasher in missing point of post shocka.

I'll help you out. The difference is you being a cunt on the other thread.

They aren't trying to beat the Houthies; they are trying to stop the attacks. And the attacks will stop. Whether it's because the attackers are all dead or because they are all rich remains to be seen.

Yeah, but their defence spending is a mere 50 billion annually and they don't have aircraft carriers, stealth bombers, B-52's, cruise missiles, drone swarms, submarines..... Plus the US isn't trying to defeat the Houthies - it's trying to stop them attacking ships. Edit: In the end, the US will probably just give the Iranian's another bag of cash and everything will be done.

I don't know much, but I do know capitalism protects itself. The Red Sea is a major transit route, so if they don't stop then the US will bomb the fuck out of them till they do. I might be wrong, but I'd bet on the country that spends over $750 billion on defence annually.

He's gone full Gnasher. Reminds me of this fella.

And now you're doubling down. Proof that you're just a russian stooge. But we all knew that anyway.

Doesn't matter what they say. The report clearly states a failure by the US to keep an inventory of the items. You took that information and used it to imply the Ukrainians stole the weapons to sell on the black market. So the real question is, why did you choose to do that?

https://edition.cnn.com/2024/01/11/politics/pentagon-tracking-weapons-ukraine-report/index.html And here is the report itself. https://media.defense.gov/2024/Jan/11/2003374323/-1/-1/1/DODIG-2024-043-EEMU_REDACTED SECURE.PDF

The Americans not keeping an inventory does not equate to the weapons disappearing into thin air. It just means they can't track them, probably because they have given more than they are declaring. Your implication the Ukrainians have stolen them to sell on the Black Market is pure Russian propaganda.

Are you saying they are cheese eating surrender monkeys? Very harsh.

She'll no doubt be in a gulag now

What a dick.

Reacher Season 2 - like prodding a painful tooth: Makes you wince but you can't stop doing it.

Shills. Easiest job in the world Great fun. Not so much fun when you or your family are doing the fighting though.

Neither are the Russian numbers.
