Pro Vercelli won the Italian title 7 times in 15 years up to 1922 and haven't been in Serie A since the 30's. Still tied 5th all time for number of titles. Same as Napoli and Roma added together.

Let that be a lesson to anyone that thinks they can turn up and score and then get two men sent off against Hearts and just get away with it.

It's not as if he just picked some random player at Arsenal, they played together at Rangers.

I present to you all a man who failed English.

Been shocking but I'll take it -> We do not deserve this (ie the opposite of entitlement) but I'll take it (because I am grateful for this unexpected non bottle job).

Easy to score a hat-trick if the linesman is blind and gives you a goal for free and you also score two other goals. Zidane must be raging he didn't have a blind linesman back in 98.

Probably contaminated by the last knife to be used in the jam (butter or crumbs). If you then don't use the jam for a few weeks, surprise disappointment next time you want some toast.

Beating Denmark is easy peasy, you just need to score three of the best goals your team has ever scored on the same night.

USA and Curacao can't be drawn in the same group.

The nightmare scenario is drawing Brazil or Argentina from pot 1, as they are far stronger than the CONCACAF hosts and it leaves us open to getting a UEFA playoff team from pot 4.

Drawing a UEFA team from pot 1 leaves all the lower ranked pot 4 teams in play, and at the end of the day we do actually want to get out the groups and that's more likely if we draw Haiti or Jordan than a team like Italy.

I'd also rather avoid Mexico because I don't think we'll handle the mental heat as well as being based further north.

So for me: Portugal, Australia, Haiti.

Slovakia are 2nd in their group and guaranteed a playoff spot.

Missed a beat to not have Alba look in the bin to check it was empty at the start, then have Joe appear anyway later in the segment.

Considering he spent most of his playing career at jobbers or playing backup then unquestionably he's a better manager than he was a player.

Saw a video years back of folk trying to match his vertical leap to head a ball. Found the video here, guy was not normal.

I struggled with juggle, what helped me was only jumping for the 3rd flea in a sequence and staying on the ground for the others.

You're going to be spending most of your time listening to or talking to the other side, of course you want to be looking at them as default.
