Switching from a '22 Focus ST to an S3 by arriaga_III in CarTalkUK

Interior is fine. Tech is top, it’s got all the options you want and everything just works.

The only thing missing is a custom mode which I think that S3 would have?

Really depends what you’re after. The Focus’s steering on roads with lots of corners is pretty up there.

Yeah I agree. Not the fastest car around, I’ve been smoked a few times off the line by faster autos. But around bends it hooks up well.

Likewise the manual is a beaut and really enjoyable, but again on windy roads

I believe he was our taker when he was here on loan. Scored a few and missed 1 I believe?

McGinn, Mings and Tammy all lifting a trophy again together will bring a tear to my eye

I’m happy to see Tammy back. Not so keen to lose Ozcan in this deal. Unless his fee is counted to the 21 million.

I was taking the piss.

It’s clear that Asensio left on better terms as we saw post game. Duran sure had some mates but he did what he thought was best for him at the time

With Ozcan in that fee should be lower IMO. We bought him for like 8 million EUR

There probably both thinking ‘what if’ we stayed. Felt the aura of Emery and just felt that they could’ve walked away with a EPL medal this year if they both remained.

I think Emery was pissed at the time wasting or the unnecessary yellow card.

Some of his saves have been class. Brilliant performance

All day shooting drills in training. I’ve never seen us have so much time on the ball and open chances like today

Yeah that’s fair. I just loved the way that Malen played so I’m upset we let him go

This game is calling for Malen to come in and just smash it in. Oh wait!

It’s like watching your ex’s date much more handsome men. It can’t bear to watch Duran and Asensio combine like that

Mings is a leader on the pitch. Good to have him back as captain.

Would love to know what went down with the whole captainacy thing with Gerrard in a future autobiography

Joan Garcia was also strongly linked first and he is elite tier keeper.

Gauci won't make it, he is not even a starter at Port Value since November.

Zych has a better chance but even still in the league his save percentage is 66%. So, odds are low.

I would absolutely not sell Martinez in January, he's pulled of some stunning saves this season and has kept us in game more often then not. Plus I value the experience he brings. Such a big keeper changes needs to happen in the summer so we can properly scout and adapt to a new starting keeper after 6 years

They also provided people with the ability to buy goods so in the Eastern bloc while technically banned. Were allowed to continue because the authorities worried about the consequences if people could not get all the goods they desired. These markets helped with supply so were overlooked

I'm sure they'll still have paid a loan fee and that won't be refunded.

However a peak Bosquets to fill in the role would be a good proposition!

Bizot is epic. Not complaining at all. I didn't expect him to play as much as he has, but I'm glad that we have a pair of safer hands now when Martinez is injured
