I wouldn't boil a kettle with fish in it. Apart from the horrific animal welfare concerns it would make your tea stink.

You've never had Caribbean fish tea? It's delicious, just what you need when the evening'a cooling down from 30C.

Let's hope Lepzig do them up like a kipper on the fee.

I would love him here but I feel he's behind us now and we should be looking for the next Timo

From Burnley for example:

Subs: Torres, Chambers, Zaniolo, Durán, Dendoncker, Marschall, Iroegbunam, Proctor

I imagine two-goals-in-his-last-few matches Zaniolo.

Yes, precisely that.

This is the Emery that was quite happy to see the back of Danny Ings 12 months ago without worrying too much about replacing him.

I just don't see a young player 'acting up' and being indulged with game time under this manager, I don't buy it at all.

He spent a few weeks on the naughty step anyway. Emery was far from impressed with him when he came on v Chelsea. But he is back getting minutes again now. In saying all that, he was hooked at half time twice in Europe already this season and if Watkins got injured we would be screwed. Worth a start at Boro to see how he goes.
