Gattuso has been appointed AC Milan manager, surely this will be even more disastrous?
It'll be interesting to say the least. His last stint was with AC Pisa, completely different club and level of talent at his disposal now but if his previous performance is anything to go by Milan fans will be wishing for Montella to return soon. His team was so unbelievably defensive he makes Mourinho look like Zdenek, his team was last placed in Serie B with the worst attack and best defence in the league

If it doesn't get better for them, they might be switching owners yet again after the Chinese owner had to borrow a huge sum from Elliot to buy the club.ย

Excuse me what?? The A-League is having a Star Wars round of matches. I like the Var Var Binks tweet. Apart from that it's rather naff.
So much cringe

There is a lot to say about determination when tally up how much a limited player like him won. What i'm curious to know is how much he has mellowed with age/experience.
I really wouldn't say for sure that the Russia group isn't rigged. ๐
You are actually assuming that they will get out of their group? hardly a foregone conclusion
England's group is so easy my goodness.
Tough draw for all the Asian teams
Forsterย
Walker Stones Cahill Bertrand
Dier Wilshere
Sterling Alli Rashford/Welbz
Kane
I reckon that team can get out the group quite easily, but we'll get done in the knock out stages.ย
Wouldn't count any game as easy at a World Cup, especially not for us. Despite Tunisia and Panama not sounding like the toughest games on paper I expect we'll still be going into the Belgium game needing a result to get through. I would have almost preferred more of a nightmare sounding group. Always find I enjoy watching the games more once England are out as I no longer care about who is playing who and it feels more relaxed.
I'm quite pleased with our group. We will lose to France but can beat Peru and give Denmark a run for their money. Also France usually start slowly don't they?

Think between Kane and Sterling we've got enough talent to put the likes of Panama away. Belgium will be tricky though.ย
Pity NZ didn't get past Peru seeing that draw. NZ-Australia at the football World Cup would have been pretty cool.
Except then the draw would've been different
๐ True. I just saw it as Peru were in that slot, but I suppose they'd have been in a different pot so couldn't have had that draw.
Cr7 wins bdor5. Messi should be winning the next. Amazing how nobody else comes close to these two, consistent high output all through.
