Anyone else absolutely delighted the international break is over or is it just us Irish fans? 🤣🤣🤣

Who was your favourite player of all time? I have many and the obvious choices come from the club you support. I could say Gerrard but thinking back I absolutely loved watching Robert 'The Divine Ponytail' Baggio. Such a silky player who beat players with ease and could finish as good as any.

Absolutely shell shocked by this heartbreaking news 😞 Heard this while at work and couldn't believe it. Apparently he was heading back to Liverpool via car/ferry based on his doctor advice as he had lung surgery and not allowed to travel by plane.

I'll start this one off with Mbappe! I think this is a done deal for Real but lots of reports today about Liverpool which I would absolutely love but do not believe for a second. Where do you guys see him ending up? Also some big free agents available in the summer Pogba, Rudiger, Kessie, Dembele and potentially even the best 36 year old player out there James Milner. ?

The new Villa away shirt looks amazing 👀

Anyone been watching any matches so far? Managed to watch Croatia v Spain, felt Croatia was really poor even they have decent in past tournaments! Gutted for Albania against Italy! They played really well and wouldn't surprise me if they do well. Really hope England will win the Euros 🫡😎

What a season, to finish on 96 points and not go up automatic is just unbelievable in itself, but credit to Ipswich and Plymouth for keeping going and not faltering. But lets talk about the play-offs, infact not just the play-offs, lets talk about last night. Liverpool fans will have fond memories of that Origi goal against Barcelona after being behind in the first leg. Man City fans will have fond memories of that Aguero moment. Man Utd the Champions League final of 99. Me and my fellow Wednesday fans, we've had our moments. That Sheridan goal in the Rumblows cup final in 1990, that Waddle goal vs Sheff Utd in the 93. But last night. Let me tell…

it’s not too late to tune in, brilliant games and results! video recaps of yesterday’s games: https://livetv752.me/es/video/20240122/

I'm a big Liverpool fan and also support a local team to me in Dublin called Shelbourne. Some are obvious like @Johno being an Arsenal fan ?, hopefully it's a better game tomorrow mate, but who do the rest of you guys support?

What do all these (big) clubs have in common?

Is nobody watching it? Since England is in the final 🤣

Who's heard of this mad concept? The club in question Fortuna Dussledorf. Zealand goes into great depth about it here. Would this work at other clubs? Why does it not surprise me that it's in Germany? What are your thoughts on this?

Has anyone done these before? I've currently had 3 with a fourth on the way. Avai from Brazil. Honduras from 19/20 Almirante Brown FC of Argentina Fourth will be the next FM save
