Love that. I actually signed up to the site after reading your pre/post match musings for years. Always look forward  to them. 3 in a week? Brilliant stuff.

Good read and I love the quote from the Wham fan. Speaking of Romelu Lukaku I was listening to Paul Lambert on TS this morning and he said he knew things were going downhill at Villa when he tried to sign Lukaku and De Bruyne from Chelsea and got the knock back.

Yup a good read as ever.

Have a missed Felix playing up at all? He seems to have been moved from pillar to post and hasn't caused problems.
