Sevilla 3 Real Madrid 0 at half time. A strange night in La Liga.

As expected was nothing in that sending off.

Spain 0 England 3 at half time. England's last away win in Spain came in 1987.

Suppose it's  coming home again then?

In fairness they were very good particularly in the 1st half, although unsurprisingly Sky did lose the run of themselves a bit post match.

El Clasico on today, it doesn't feel the same with no Ronaldo and Messi playing.

Barcelona top after a 5-1 win. The champions of Europe Real Madrid way down in 9th place.

Was it as good as the Turin game?
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

Missed it, when is the next game?

Dortmund v Bayern was a cracker, Sancho looks like a real talent. Won't be long out in Germany.

Illustrates the problems that young english talent have in the PL at the big clubs to get an opportunity. At Man City for example, Sancho/Foden i think will both be stars in future years but if you are behind the likes of David Silva/KDB  in the pecking order how are you ever going to get a chance? Sancho had to  leave and Foden is getting limited game time.

You'd have to be as good as Messi, Ronaldo, Rooney or Mbappe were at 18 to be getting in the City starting team, thinking about it Ronaldo at 18 wouldn't have been good enough.

Even if City loaned Foden out I don't think he'd start in any other premier league team just yet. He's too small, this time next year will be different.

I've seen so many top class English youngsters aged 17/18/19 that I'd consider very special; There going to have another Golden generation with Gomes & Greenwood at United, Foden, Sancho, Gibbs-White, Reiss Nelson, Sessegnon & Hudson-Odoi.  That England team that won the u17 world cup is the best youth team I've ever seen.

Greenwood is progressing very quickly at United, he's just turned 17. In terms of how good Giggs was at 17 I don't think he's too far off that.
