You can't be a real country unless you have a beer and an airline. It helps if you have some kind of a football team, or some nuclear weapons, but at the very least you need a beer.

I would leave this to you, but... you know....track record and all that.

I liked Mangler, but that's way more Fernando than Mangala. I was thinking Duma, but it might be too vague a reference.

Pretty odd comment.

I doubt he either scored that own goal or gave away that penalty because of people on here raving about him.

A shocker by all accounts. But we still won so no real harm done and it'll toughen him up a bit.

He was just to eager to get to every ball that came anywhere near him. It worked against chelsea and it went against him v hull.

I wouldn't worry at all, he just needs to use gis head as well as his legs and sometimes let the play move because the ball is not going into a danger area.

Both fuckups were bad decisions, but he's going to be absolutely top notch if he just calms down a bit.

He's got the perfect teacher beside him.

Any decent goalie would have stopped that header . this old fella is not good enough.

As for the penalty. The ref couldn't wait to give it .
