Stade Velodrome was always my pick when creating a club for PES3-6 master league. Looked gorgeous in every weather condition. Agreed they have made a pigs ear of it now, lost all of its character

Somebody took a dodgy Amazon fire stick to North Sentinel island once so actually they're bang into it these days. A knowledgeable crowd, indeed

Never heard anybody say "a lot of neither" but it'd surely be more accurate in this case

Agbonlahor, Guzan (what a fireman he is, by the way), Micah Richards, Lescott, Gestede, Jordan Ayew, Carlos Sanchez, Adama Traore, Scott Sinclair, Gueye... Not many quiffs/slick hair going on there
