      Btw I will try to get the threads up but I won’t be watching games probably so apologies if they don’t happen, I’ll try my best to get to ratings at night as well but no promises.

    I’d read about Suarez needing painkillers to play the average league match in Brazil. He’s just joined Inter Miami. The money’s great I guess.

      I don’t think it’d be all that uncommon for any player in the second half of their career to need painkillers to get through a game

    Anyone else worried that Arsenal haven’t spoken out against the Super League?

      I am. A disappointment really because it’s easy to just put out a statement, this seems like we are probably still in on it. But legally there isn’t a way for us to break with EPL per the Parliament. Remember, the ruling is for the EU only.

          Look, Barca or La Liga in general really need to sell their overseas tv rights for more now that there’s more streaming services available. ESPN is definitely lowballing them if NBC had to pay billions for EPL while La Liga fees were a couple of millions. I love the ESPN+ app and it’s functionality but their coverage is so barebones it’s ass.

          That’s what this is all about. Money. Like just run your own damn league better and get income elsewhere.

    Just realised there’s a significant chance that Villa goes top and stays there for this matchweek.
