Now in my late fifties I can feel death creeping up on me i. I reckon I've got a maximum of 20 years left.
I'm never going to see us win the league again, am I? :cry:

Also, we now have an Eddie who has the faith of the manager, his team mates and fans, doesn't feel under pressure to score if he gets a rare chance and was a better all round player than both Laca and Auba when he got his run last season.
I think he's looked good when he's come on. Played well for the team mid-week.
Do wish Marquinhos would change his Christian name to Gabby, though. 3 Gabby Ms and 1 Gabby Jesus.
Feeling deviant, I watched the highlights of his U21 debut. Had a hand in all 3 goals - won a pen, scored one and made one with a pretty decent pass with the outside of his foot. Ganpati willing, he can make the same impression in the first team as Gabby Winger did. {That header from Saka's cross. The cross that made me claim Saka would be wasted on the right. Gotta admit, I know my football.}
So Auba, Laca, Pépé has become Jesus, Eddie and Vieira with Marquinhos as a bonus. That'll do me. ESR said Vieira was the best player in the Euro U23s or whatever it was.
