It would be great for a world cup to be at a nice place to visit and not some hosed up hell hole like Saudi Arabi or The United States of America.

Been looking at some balloon door stats because I'm a cool and interesting person and Lionel has more balloons than any *country* other than Argentina (which just has his eight) which feels a bit silly really

Maradona was never eligible really quote:Prior to 2007, the award was generally known as the continental European Footballer of the Year award in English language and much international media. Even after 2007, it was usually identified with and referred to by that name because of its origin as a European award, until it was merged with FIFA's World Player award cementing its new worldwide claim. Liberia's George Weah, the only African recipient, became the first non-European to win the award in 1995, the year that rules of eligibility were changed. Ronaldo of Brazil became the first South American winner two years later.

And if you want to look farther afield, the FIFA World Player of the Year award only came into existence in 1991 and only ever had one Argentine winner - Messi in 2009, the year before it merged with the Ballon d'Or. Batistuta came 3rd in 1999 but he's the only other Argentine who ever made the top three.

Ballon D'or did create a new retrospective award called Le nouveau palmarès which was about trying to give award to South American players that would have won it had they been eligible. They didn't retract the original winners, but issued these awards as a kind of recognition they would have won if they were allowed to Pele would have won 7, Maradona 2, kempes, romario and garrincha 1 each. So Brazil would have had 14 to Argetina's 11. In Brazil no one really cared about Ballon d'or until the merger.

Southgate sticking to the players he knows and trusts and winding up the right people for two meaningless games against minnows is good enough for me.

Reece James looked at how many people were coming back from international breaks dead and said no thanks I'd rather not play these two meaningless matches when I'm recovering from an injury and England already qualified, and Southgate responded by threatening not to pick him for the Euros because he's clearly not committed to the team

Maddison is apparently now out with a injury till start of next year. Could see Eze coming instead of him since he is now back from injury and was called up few months ago.
