Not particularly, it's just a phrase that's used when someone wears it in a photo whether it's Pau, Bouba, Unai, Pep, Dua Lipa or Keir Starmer.

THe reference to getting the badge in is about youngster wannabe hoolies who make sure they're showing the Stone Island badge when photographed, what with it having become a sort of hooligan uniform these days.

Shame*. I used to have a lovely Stone Island jacket 1995.


* specifically, shame I am 3 times as large these days.

Iconic brand. Emery also likes to get the badge in. Class.

No, Ross, Barren or Dobbin in the pictures from training.  Playing rush back goalie on Saturday too.

Kamara even do some running. Might be Dendoncker there to prepare himself for playing some until Kamara will be back.

I'm sure that they said Kamara would return in September. And then as time went on we all started saying later and later, until it sounded like he was trapped in that 2D glass thing from Superman II.

So hopefully September is still on the cards and we can all watch our favourite Boub again.

It was good to see Bouba Kamara hadn't lost the bulk in his thigh muscle as Tyrone Mings did but Mings' injury must have been far more serious.

March for improved toilet facilities and getting served a pint at halftime, Buendia doesn't need us comrades.
