Precisely the same issue in the response to the great hunger in Ireland. And it cost millions of lives. (Hence Lord John Russell). Admittedly,...

Still think Lytton starving 15m Indians - 2.5x the Holocaust total - is worse. And all because of an obsession with laissez faire economics.

What on earth were they moaning about at the end? Very funny game :-)

The UN is a complete irrelevance. It's dead. As for the rest of it. It depends what you mean by security, I suppose.

I'm not sure he believes anything.

The thing with Trump is that what he says and how he behaves is far worse than what he actually does. For example, Nixon committed treason by...

I disagree. I sadly think he actually believes it.

Well, Adolf wasn't exactly HH the Dalai Lama, was he? And Edward Robert Bulwer-Lytton, later 1st Earl of Lytton, was Viceroy of India during the...

Sometimes i think he says this stuff purely to annoy people and cause trouble. The world just has to ride it out for a few years.

I was about to say the very same thing. Though WES is right about Trump. For a draft dodger to tell the families of the 457 British squaddies who...

Yes, there has. Many times. Although few of them wore their vileness with such pride.

Of course, Wes. Ive never seen you put that much thought into anything:-) And I wouldn't call it beautiful. A little wordy and contrived.

I take it you are not a fan..... :-) But not all bar-stool drunks are ignorant. I find that offensive....

Nicely done. And stop calling me a ****ing lefty! :-)

Very good. But Freddie vs B is the right side's history.

I was being playful... If i was going Corbyn on you I would tell you to get on the right side of history... :-) I assume you have at some point...

Now, now, P, don't get all lefty definitions. Nouns and adjectives. A legend can be a myth. Legendary talent and mythical talent are not the...

Imagine if B had Bergy playing defence splitting passes into the box so he was 1-on-1 from 15 yards with the ball on his left foot.....

I can answer that easily. You said the invincible season. That was 03/04 :-) If you want 2004/5, here you go: 14 goals, 11 assists. Eclipsed by...

And here come the caveats...... assist data below, by the way. But I guess you will say that Saka's are inflated by the excellence of his...

In all competitions... Freddie 2001/2- 17 goals, 5 assists Freddie 2003/4- 10 goals, 9 assists Saka 20212- 12 goals, 7 assists Saka...

And even based on performances solely between the ages of 18-24, Saka outperforms Ljungberg's spell with arsenal in goals (57 to 46) on precisely the...

He needs to be playing more of his football infield. Too often he is receiving the ball out on the line. And his decisions could be more...

As opposed to the longstanding awards voted for by the players or the football writers? Do you know why Freddie won that award and not the other...

Well it hasn't been officially denied. Never believe any rumour until it has been officially denied :-)

We dont have another player like Martinelli. You get the feeling that he has another level in there and if he finds it he will be unstoppable.

Ahem..... Dennis. At Chelsea. Brilliant ball to Vieira. Gets lost under the weight of a hundred brilliant passes. That man was just a genius.....

So do I. Last player I saw make a pass like that with the outside of his right boot was Merse.

No. Van Nistelrooy won the PFA award. Pires won the football writers' award. Those are the two prestigious awards. Freddie won some award I've never...
