The Amorim Affair. A Sporting Fan Speaks.

--:--
Throw out the running order Man Utd are looking for a new manager.

Erik gave his goodbye Hags and next lady for a shave is a lovely little Portuguese man that made this shows' resident lovely Portuguese man believe again.

Paulo makes a last ditch attempt at convincing United to “give it Ruud” to help save his beloved Sporting from going back to the doldrums.

What can United expect from Ruben?

We talk his management style.
His tactics.
And how he needs to deal with Rio.

We also take a moment to talk about the Galactico tantrum. Fergie said never trust Real Madrid and while we were calling them big, classless children - we haven't once mentioned how a literal child told the Bernabéu to sit down.

The Devil's greatest trick and all that.

Flashy tricks will never beat a tucked in shirt. It's the law of life.

When we weren’t hitting refresh on Fabrizio Romano's Twitter feed we took some time to watch the Amazon documentary series, Game 7 - specifically the episode about the 2006 Western Conference semifinals between the Dallas Mavericks and the San Antonio Spurs, two Texas rivals with rich histories.

It has NBA prejudices about European players, the most boring, best team in NBA history and Mark Cuban.

We don't know if that's a good or a bad thing.

The most Beckham, Beckham has ever been.

Sunglasses, boots, Gianni Infantino. Is there anything in the world that Beckham can't make look better? OK the last one might be a stretch even for him. United are a club haunted by the ghosts of nostalgia. The pale and sickly appearance of Paul Scholes. The incessant and uncanny shrieking…

Billion with a B

Thomas Tuchel is England's Fußballmeister, and the Brexiteers are not happy—unless it brings them a World Cup. At least he won't be showing up on the Old Trafford touchline anytime soon. Which is lucky for him, as King Eric (Cantona) is flinging bags of sh*t around after INEOS took away…

Khethile Khethile

An international break gives us pause to spend time with our significant others - and Paulo and Senzo find one another very significant. We start the show with ‘’5-a-side’’, 5 things each from the world of football we find worth talking about. Arne Slot is disappointingly anti-Moyes but is time…
