  1. A Dutch family friend (who's an utter bell pipe) went as far to say he was the greatest player he's seen come through the Ajax academy. This was about 5 years ago and stuck in my mind. I bumped into him last week and literally refused to talk about him. That's good enough for me.

    The 2030 World Cup will be held across six countries in three continents, Fifa has confirmed.

    Spain, Portugal and Morocco have been named as the co-hosts, with the opening three matches taking place in Uruguay, Argentina and Paraguay.

    The opening matches in South America are to mark the World Cup's centenary as it will be 100 years since the inaugural tournament in Montevideo.

    The decision is set to be ratified at a Fifa congress next year.

    Fifa also confirmed only bids from countries from the Asian Football Confederation and the Oceania Football Confederation will be considered for the 2034 finals.

    Following that decision, Saudi Arabia announced it would be bidding to host the tournament in 2034 for the first time.


    This has had some negative responses but Saudi pretty much thought they had this nailed on. The next two world cups will be fucking ace.

    It's unacceptable that offside gets brushed off, we've lost titles by one point, I'm fucking sick of it. Its not a sport anymore.


    Made the same point to my dad. It’s not sport anymore. It’s bad enough that absolutely fuck all is happening with the 115 charges.

     

    I went and sat outside the house after the ‘offside’ could see myself turning into Michael Douglas in falling down.

    He's played there a few times, mainly when he first got here and was struggling. Maybe he can excel there, but he'll have a big job trying to shift Diaz.


    I don’t remember him ever playing on the left? Not saying I’m doubting you Dave but the majority of the pods are you, Paul & Jules talking about how you only remember stuff from 1998.

    Also if Diaz plays like he did on Sunday, Adrian might get a run out at LW.

    Greatest? Easily. Best? Possibly not (although not certainly so). We need to make a distinction between the two. Best is purely about talent for me, but greatness is about overall contribution to the club with everything in the mix (talent, trophies, longevity, character, etc). 
     

     

    These are off the top of my head, in no order except the first on each list:
     

    Greatest 5: Kenny, Rushie, Mo, Souness, Stevie

     

     Best 5: Suarez, Digger, Stevie, Kenny, Fowler. 


    I’d also add

     

    Greatest: Salah

    Best: Mane

     

    Sadio not even had a sniff yet.
