    Speculation The hysterical and annoying, but traditional, totally unfounded summer 2021 rumours thread

    I've not rated Tarkowski whenever I've seen him. Not rubbish but nothing great either. Maybe that's what we want in a backup player but not at whatever last season's price was.... £40M?? Nah, less than half that maybe... but wtf do I know about prices? Pick a number.

    The race for the Top 4

    Is it for the PL to hand out punishment though? Is it the PL rules that have been broken? In fact, whose rules have been broken? UEFA's? As morally, ethically or whatever-else-ally we all rightly think of the 'big 6' actions, there might not be a great that can actually be done about it...

    Champions League 20/21

    Oh, and I read an article during the week that said Mahrez was a "big game player". Perhaps Pep should have told him that the CL Final was a big game.

    Happy for Kanté. That's it. Other than pondering red card rules; Swansea lad slips and gets one, Rudiger's body check only gets a yellow.

    I wouldn't phrase it quite like that myself but I nonetheless agree.

    It could also be the way he plays, trying to roll players. He can be very good on the ball, in close possession. Manages to wriggle away, find room. Something Perez, for instance, tries but doesn't sucede at. By way of comparison, watch Youri - he rarely lets himself be caught in possession...

    You put a strong case, I'd not really considered it like that. There certainly is a case for saying that there was a failure to recognise what was at stake, 'irresponsible' seems like too weak a word.

    I do too. Aim high with the acceptance that you might not get there. You might not get there but the chances are higher if you at least aim to and give it a shot.
