My bad what ? Breath? False teeth? Hairdo? Can you re-post that in English please. ?

Looks to be a good pacy player with an eye for a pass. Oxford fans say he is injury prone and inconsistent. Let's see.

That bad ?

Let's see how he goes next year. 3 years will be wasted money if he relegates us again.

It's obvious Tony is holding fire with his tens of millions transfer kitty to watch the talent on view in the World Cup and make his move after the end of the tournament. From what I have seen so far, the Portuguese No 7 shows promise and the Uruguay No 9 could be useful in the Championship.

Focusing on a key player and relating him to England's non-chances is equally boring

Leave off. Salah playing is good for him after his bad injury and good for the tournament. England won't win it or probably even get to the last 8 and are perfectly capable of cocking it up through sheer ineptitude - with or without Salah playing

Hoban was a very good player in his short time with us. Emnes and Gallagher had their moments too.

?

Ronaldo is one of those players who make football a "beautiful" game. It's just something in the way he moves. The best player in the world and has been for some time.

Are you deranged ?

.... and Mexico will have had it 3 (yes 3) times since we hosted it in 1966. Anyone except England is Fifa's motto. I'm resigned to the fact it'll never be here again in my lifetime

How can you make a judgment on the PNE players if "you don't know much about them" ? Nonsensical. Nothing negative except we've re-signed 2 old codgers who are likely to struggle next year.

The England football team were visiting children at a Russian orphanage today. "It was heartbreaking to see their sad faces with no hope," said Vladimir aged 6.

I've made a point of watching City alot this season (because they're so easy on the eye) and Sterling's been the best player on alot of occasions and the catalyst for much of their best play. Players have been feeding off him, not the other way round. He does miss chances but scores (and creates) many too. He would probably be my first pick for an England XI. I'd have Vardy and Kane up front. It's just a pity that Shelvey, the best passer of a ball in the Premier League - who has the eye and ability to hit an early pass for Vardy's runs, isn't in the squad. A mistake by Southgate in my view.

Why ? Sterling has been outstanding for City this past season. His game has developed and matured and he's twice the player who pulled on an England shirt in the last tournament. And he's scoring goals. Rashford has promise but he's very raw.

Lake was seen as a big star; Gary Shaw was another whose dazzling career fizzled out because of injury. Lots of other unfulfilled talent from the past - Duncan Mackenzie, Alan Hudson, Bowles, Worthington, Currie. Fantastic players, better than anything we have now. In the present era, Ross Barkley is in danger of losing what should have been. Excellent player - but does he want it ?

Embarrassing. Even chasing 371, England's batters got themselves into good positions several times only to lose their wickets to poor shots. Coupled with the Test defeats though it all points to continuing failure in all types of the game. Time for Bayliss to depart.

Howard Gayle and David Thompson, discarded by Liverpool, were excellent players for Rovers. John Bailey was a Liverpudlian too, and Mike Newell. All brilliant for us.

Agree with this. Jason Lowe is a Rolls-Royce of a player at his level. For all the criticism of Lowe, he has had a very good career in the Championship, the second tier of the game. Most players cannot say that.

What does Dack want from his career ? If he buckles down and plays well again next season Premier League clubs will be knocking on our door. If he messes around off the field and doesn't look after his body in a professional manner he won't get anywhere. It's all down to him. Don Revie at Leeds insisted his great young players when they were coming through such Bremner, Hunter etc married early. Not sure if he'd get away with that these days but he knew the value of stability in players' lives.

No money to spend, club in crisis, turmoil off the field, ageing squad, fans up in arms, morale low. Perfect for Sam.

King wasn't good enough for Rovers at the time. The potential was there, obviously, but he was raw and inconsistent and didn't warrant being picked ahead of those two. His skills and his game needed time to mature at another club and Bournemouth was the perfect place for him.

Speaking from experience, training harder as you get older is not the solution and is more likely to lead to injury. In order to sustain a playing career at any level it is important to train better, avoiding the hard, heavy stuff that just makes you legs feel like lead, and concentrating more on quality of training. A good diet is vital too; you don;t get away with eating badly in your 30s like you did when you were 21. Lots of rest too, not always easy when you have a young family. Kenny Dalglish's daughter said her dad's routine after a morning's training would be to go bed in afternoon.

I remember returning for pre-season training when I was 28. All of sudden, my legs had lost their "spring" and although the speed as a winger was still there, taking on full backs and getting past defenders was so much more difficult. I changed my game in my late 20s and early 30s, moved inside more as a No 10, and enjoyed it alot more (and scored more goals). I also learnt how to play with my back to goal. Conway still plays as an out-and-out winger at 32-33, which is hard, although Ribery at Bayern is playing better than ever at 35 and has lost none of his pace. He was the best player on the field against Real Madrid in the CL semis. I don't know how he does it to be honest.
