Terrific Messi interview by @GuillemBalague (with English subtitles). Even in just 5 minutes, you learn a lot from Messi himself. Shows how much it helps to have a prior relationship with the interviewer. https://t.co/WzzRWCWz0b

I'm sure neither side yesterday really wanted to see that Super League game go to ET. What is essentially an exhibition, 3 days before league play starts, and you have to play an extra 30 minutes....in August.SexualChocolate said:
Super League is done. The Super Cup puts Champions League winner vs Europa League winner.
Premier League starts this weekend. If you are a Liverpool fan or just a fan of the PL, London Bridge pub is a great spot to catch a game. It is home to the LFC supporters and we regularly get a full house when they play especially when it's a big game. Come out and enjoy! It's a great time.

Disagree - this is terrible. But that's only because I'm an Arsenal supporter and they are apparently now terrible. I should have picked wiser when I picked a club about 7 or 8 years ago, but it was nice picking someone that was consistently in Top 4. I may be a curse...Packchem91 said:

LOL, yeah. While my kids have definite favorite teams, I've kind of waffled around on an absolute favorite. The one thing I have consistently agreed upon, is a least favorite -- and that is City. Not a huge Chelsea fan, because they are like the Yankees, but they are sure fun to watch right now, and of course have to pull for Pulisic.statefan91 said:Disagree - this is terrible.

I love Grealish, but hard to pull for City.
I'm more inclined to pull for a great story -- like Leicester / Vardy when it made its incredible run, or even Leeds and now Brentford getting shots to return to glory.
Frankly, the whole notion of relegation / promotion makes watching the lesser teams so much fun.

My Spurs beat the most expensive EPL line up in history yesterday. City's starting 11 cost 550 mil+ and their bench pushes 350 mil, making them the first team in EPL history to top the 1 billion mark.
Suck it, oil club.
And they may still take on Kane!mrcpack17 said:

We'll see - if I'm Levy, Kane's price tag just went up even more after yesterday though. Very obvious now that City needs a goal scorer.SexualChocolate said:mrcpack17 said:

Hope you can keep Kane bc City really needs a CF.

As for keeping him, I'm not sure what the best move is. It seems Kane is set on leaving - is it worth keeping a player who has one foot out the door? If City offer 130+, I think Levy would be foolish not to take it as Kane's value likely won't get any higher than it is right now. I've been a Spurs fan since the Dempsey days so I don't throw out selling Kane lightly. I remember the thrashings the top sides constantly dished out on us. Kane has been tremendous for the club and is largely responsible for the success we've had in terms of club growth and success, despite silverware constantly eluding us.
It will certainly be the start of a new era if Spurs ultimately sell but folks thought we were doomed when we sold Bale to Madrid and Spurs are 10x the club now than they were then.
