It is more likely to be your regular tonsillitis but there is a chance it is COVID-19.

Don't stress yourself as long as you are not feeling sick. Your housemate will definitely be tested for COVID as soon as he/she gets to the hospital and we are getting results in hours now.

No need to worry until it is time to worry.

OGS first choice and was the only CB on his list to Woodward a few months back. They thought he was unavailable when he signed a new contract, but after hearing what Villareal and Monaco is asking, they have made contact with Leipzig to get updated on his situation.

And I honestly don’t trust this upamecano or whatever. Just that the amount quoted isn’t too high. Na bailly dey cause all these nonsense. If only he could stay fit?

Oh good to know you are around. Just checking on you boss.

How do you think ole can effectively use Van de beek?

I have not paid attention to that. We will talk about this later.

What do you guys think about Messi coming to EPL? If he joins Man City, the league automatically becomes theirs. Don't you think so?

It's funny how we bought both Bruno and VDB for a combined £72m + Bruno's Balloon dor add on. But would have gotten maddison and Grealish for a combined £160m. That's madness, the gulf in class is very huge for half the price.

We have Maguire, Shaw, Henderson, Rashford, Greenwood, AwB that's half the team as potential confirmed starters who are English already. Mctomminay, James and Williams is British, Pogba and TFM are home grown. Not to talk of Perriera, Lingard, Smalling, Jones who btw are still our player. We have academy players coming up too. So we are Overflowing with English/British/Home grown players already.

Please I think we should suspend signing any English player till further notice. I dont want to hear Longstaff, Buendia, Rice, Cantwell, Mings, etc from Ole's mouth again, except if he wants thunder to fire him. Imagine if we had sign Dele Alli and Eric Dier, when the English media were pushing us, we would have been looking at how to offload more big wage deadwoods

Except for exceptional talented like Sancho.

Sancho actually wants to join United [Romano], but BVB played their game well on him, to ensure they get good money off him. They offered a new contract with good wages, just enough to persuade him not to mind staying one more season.

If United don’t get Sancho this summer, I highly doubt that they’ll ever get him, because if he keeps performing well, it’ll be an auction ground next summer, definitely hitting €150m.

I have been praying silently for Messi to remain in Barca or go to PSG or somewhere else. If that guy enter EPL. The league is as good as done and dusted. Messi can comfortably give you extra 25-30 points on his own. Make opponents to resign to defeat even before the game kickoff and create an absolute fear factor on any team he joins. If Messi joins City. That's it.

Ok my bad. But I dont need any overrated English/ British player. Especially those limited average Joes Giggs is throwing at us, so we can develop his national team for him.
The difference makers that Klopp signed were Salah, Mane, Allison, Fabinho, Robertson and VVD. Plus the emergence of TAA. Only Robbo and TAA are British, and there are unexpected success. That English project that Ole was pursuing is certainly bound to fail

Pep + Messi + KDB is a very lethal combination.

Messi won’t miss those chances Sterling squanders every time.

What if he tails off starting from this season. Dele Alli was unplayable few seasons ago, beasting Juventus, Madrid and co. He even did his own in the EPL. Sancho was good in the Bundesliga yes, but the 2 full seasons he was in the UCL, he did not particularly set the world alight. Mbappe and Haaland who are rated as his level hit the ground running at the get go in the UCL. TAA, Upamecano, De ligt and Alphonso if you are talking of defender. You can make a case for his age though.
Except he reaches Absolute Mbappe level, I dont see any club paying Dortmund €150m for Sancho. Clubs are now very careful to pay that huge money for youngsters who are not confirmed superstars. Especially with what happened to Dembele and Joao Felix. Especially when this 100m Euros guy Chelsea is bringing flops.

With the level of talent Sancho has, for a 20yr old, I find it hard seeing a possibility of him tailing off. At this point, only a poor lifestyle can hinder him, and judging from his interviews so far, I highly doubt if he lives such lifestyle. Also, he hasn’t shown any signs of being injury-prone.

Unpopular take:

I think these days it's popular to parrot anti-english rhetoric with little basis.

Someone said he doesn't want English players except the "exceptionally talented ones".

For feck sakes, we don't want players from any nationality except the talented ones.

As for me, I don't care about the color of your passport because if you good, you good.

E no consign me if you hail from Kensington or Kuala Lumpur.

Dembele nko, Joao Felix nko? I know you will wave it away, but bring Dele stats from his first seasons at spurs, that of Sancho is not better and that was in the EPL oo. And Dele scores important goals against the biggest teams. Chelsea, United, City, Juventus, Madrid, Arsenal etc. Sancho doesn't.

I am not saying Sancho will not reach the highest level, but there is absolutely nothing to suggest that he will be a CERTAIN superstar. So far I haven't seen him take a really big game by the scruff of the neck. I have watched him in England national team, he did not clearly stand out from Rashford and Sterling. Mind you, I am not knocking him, but let's not get too much ahead of ourselves

Add Beckham too but from your list only Rooney, Smith, Keane and Ferdinand were signed apart from smith those are all generational talents. Rooney for example already beasted Euros before we signed him. The rest were academy graduates, I am not against academy graduate, neither am I against signing English players, but making it a priority is wrong

You add Messi to that Man City team and they win the next 2 titles easily. It won't be funny.
It is not just about the player but also the team he is joining and the manager of that team. It would be a marriage made in unfair heaven.

Sancho had better stats than Dele Alli's best season AND he was younger. Dele had 25 goal contributions in the season he turned 21 and Sancho had 33 goal contributions in the season he turned.

In addition Dele Alli was never a real youth prodigy unlike Sancho that was always the best out of his age mates from around the age of 15....and this is a out of a really talented group of youngsters that won the under 17 world cup for England.

Also it is a bit unfair to compare him to Rashford and Sterling who are much older. Sterling in particular is over 5 yrs older. Sancho is a talented player but he is not Messi or Neymar.

Finally, apart from Messi and Ronaldo scoring goals nothing is certain in football. However you can't fail to act just because you are afraid you won't succeed.
