Not England but Brandon Barker, remember him, has scored for Hibs. Was only wondering the other week what had happened to him

Pogba gets hauled off after an hour after doing the square root of fuck all. Commentators wondering if he was carrying a knock. No he wasn't. He was shit.

You know the irony? It was many years ago but it was actually Mourinho who coined the term 'park the bus' when he said it was a phrase used in Portugal. He was complaining of a team doing it against Chelsea when he was manager there. No one in England had ever heard of the phrase before but it quickly became a common quote. All these years later, he's manager of Manchester United and he's becoming known for mass bus parking himself.

*edit* After some quick googling, my hunch was correct and he actually used the phrase way back in 2004 after a match against Tottenham as Chelsea manager.

"Tottenham might as well have put the team bus in front of their goal," Mourinho said. "Sometimes when you are a big club, a very small club comes to your stadium. Tottenham got a point they shouldn't."

"As we say in Portugal, they brought the bus and they left the bus in front of the goal."

"I would have been frustrated if I had been a supporter who paid £50 to watch this game because Spurs came to defend."

"I'm really frustrated because there was only one team looking to win, they only came not to concede - it's not fair for the football we played."

*2nd edit* Here's the BBC link to the game I'm referring to: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/teams/c/chelsea/3665180.stm

I wonder what Sanchez is thinking tonight, or is he comforted by his big fat pay deal with the SCUM and couldn't care less about the rubbish being played by his new Club ??

Don't forget he is living his dream of playing for the SCUM.

That and the £400k he is trousering each and every week for the next four and a half years.

I think he's still dining out on last Friday's media portrail of him as the second coming of the Messiah after winning the universe cup against the giants that are Yeovil Town...
