With a fractured eye socket apparently.

And I'd say out of the 3 only Luton had a reasonable excuse.

Pretty insane what they're doing this season. They're not only unbeaten in the league but they're also unbeaten in Europe and in the cup where they have a final coming against second division Kaiserslautern. If they manage to go the whole season unbeaten and win the Bundesliga, Europa League and DF...

Well, that was a good call.

I'm probably in a minority but I'd be perfectly happy Southgate dropping Pickford. Gives him less opportunity to get injured playing in games i don't care about and gives him more time to rest and prepare for the ones I do. Nah, I'm not having that.

Literally nothing in it and those lines aren’t reliable.

We were sold the lie that more accuracy is always better. It sounds so true except it isn't.

Once you start drawing lines, you've fucked it.

One thing I will say though is that as infuriating and frustrating it is to have lengthy good and bad runs, objectively it's better than a win-one-lose-one setup.

12 clean sheets out of 35 games.

I know that's not all down to him but it's fucking amazing.

Meanwhile mad shout Saturday continues on the Beeb with one fan saying Dyche should replace Southgate after the Euros.

And it's so rare to see a good one these days.

They certainly run a lot, you've got to give them that.

Ngl, I haven't watched any non-Everton football for a while, is it always this shite?
