Peoples views on abortion will be their own and that’s fine, but you are a backwards cunt if you purposely decide to ban abortions and force women who want or need them into back ally jobs. If a woman isn’t free to do what she wants with her own body, be that an abortion, then she simply isn’t free. Mental stuff.

If you have a big problem with “Muslim grooming gangs” but you don’t carry the same energy for other grooming gangs or individuals then I don’t think it’s victims of child abuse that you really care about.

Watch Bazunu for Ireland, he’s become a national treasure in a short period. So much pressure on a young kid and he handles it so well.

Ever since Edu and Arteta solely took over the transfer business at Arsenal the direction the club has gone in has been really healthy, by the end of this window they could have a squad that will be filled with players with big growth but also major sell on value in the coming years. Considering Arsenal are leaving the period of Lacazette, Aubameyang, Ozil, Willian, Luiz etc the squad is moving in a really healthy direction.

I know we talk about playing a more progressive team and we talk about Southgate’s limitations, but I do also wonder if we’re currently a match made even if there are what if moments. Players like Sancho, Grealish and Foden are all the sorts we’d like to see in our team but being honest you have to evaluate the midfield options before making that kind of choice. Our current midfield 2 is Kalvin Phillips and Declan Rice, we may add a Henderson for more combativeness or a Mount for more possession but really this isn’t a midfield that is going to be dictating tempo and constantly playing passes through the lines. It’s going to be high wing backs and Phillips/Rice’s distance passing to switch sides to a less congested area of the pitch. Harry Kane is so instrumental to how we play because he is someone that can drop deep, drag a defender and pass through the lines. Because of that you need speed on the wings and so that’s going to Sterling and then one of Foden, Grealish, Saka and Sancho. Maybe Foden plays attacking mid instead of Mount, but ultimately I don’t think we can afford to have a midfield that isn’t industrious at all times. Once you remove the Phillips/Rice partnership, or Henderson instead of Rice, and start chucking Bellingham and Mount in it falls apart. I think Phillips can play at the base of a tempo controlling team, but Rice would need someone better than Phillips behind him and better than Mount ahead of him to fit into that. The key aspects to this team that can’t change are defensive solidity in our centre backs, Phillips/Rice partnership, aggressive wing backs who can defend too, and a Kane/Sterling partnership. Everything outside of that is up to debate, which in fairness, isn’t a lot. If we ever move away from the back 5 I don't know but one thing I'm fairly certain this England team needs is an industrious midfield because I would say our midfielders in Phillips, Rice, Henderson, Bellingham and Mount all have in common is that none of them are dictate the tempo, break through the lines with a slick pass from deep type midfielder and all of them have varying levels of defensive nous. And that dictates how the rest of the team plays as Foden just isn't an attacking for England. Sterling/Grealish - Kane - Sterling/Foden/Saka Mount/Bellingham - Rice/Henderson/Bellingham Phillips/Henderson Chilwell/Shaw/Trippier - Maguire/Tomori - Stones - Walker/James/TAA Pickford That imo is as attacking as this current England team will get or should get during the next tournament.

Too many syllables

This thread is off-topic to all the topics that exist. No Southampton topic so Saints fit in the Off-Topic. However I will accept that I’m wrong and argumentative so a window has now opened for alternative name suggestions. If a suitable name is not given within the window then this topic shall remain the Off-Topic and modernity will take over.

You have no evidence to support this claim

Strong fuck off vibes

To save opening too many topics… Saints have signed Gavin Bazunu and Armel Bella-Kotchap so far this window, definitely going for a younger approach with sell on value. I think under Rasmus Ankersen’s leadership they will have a stronger season this season than people may expect.

No just funny

You’re such a mute ignore dumb button

So Arsenal have signed Vieira and are pushing on to sign Gabriel Jesus, Youri Tielemans and Lisandro Martinez. Really trying to get good business business done early to avoid what happened last season.

Yeah ofc, just meant I had to get the Piccadilly Line home and it was like getting out of bed with a supermodel and getting into bed with Dot Cotton

I went on the new Elizabeth Line for the first time yesterday and Jesus Christ does it put a lot of trains on the tube to shame. The architecture is really nice, small details all really thought out and the train itself is quick, air conditioned and fairly comfortable. I really like that they’ve moved away from using metal/plastic as decorative pieces and used what looks like concrete panelling instead. If you travel on the 2012 upgrades they do look a bit dated. A video I watched online prior for anyone who’s interested in it

It’s mad that there are a lot of people that don’t completely agree with this sentiment

Bazunu has been nothing short of brilliant for the national team, hopefully he can push on now. Seeing as he’s just been playing in League 1 I’d imagine he’ll come in as a #2, but his performances at international level would suggest he’ll be looking to get first team minutes.

I will never comprehend how bad Union players can be at catching and passing the ball. Blues were terrible and even when they scored a try you could tell they weren’t getting back into it

The Blues finally making this final a bit interesting
