@Millitant0 No it's not Havertz. Merino would back up Havertz and, as we've seen he'd do fine. Arteta wouldn't play Gyokeres.
There isn't a single dependency player. We are thinnest at the moment, purely due to injuries, not squad building, in defence.
@duncback@billycarpy I love Havertz but you can argue the toss about him sure. Incredible skill but, finding a position for him in the modern game has been his challenge.
Timber??? He's like, just obviously extremley elite. Could walk into any team on earth and play anywhere along the back line.
@NondescriptRed@LeftieStats@CatRedFront Because fundementally, the neo-libs won. Offshoring worked. The critical mass of people that could constituite a viable working-class political powerbase to exercise power no longer exists. 1-0 Thatcherites.
You want socialism in the U.K it's a differerent ball game now.
@masaccio60 Tubeless is fine. Genuine benefits, some drawbacks, faster and more enjoyable to ride on than tubs on the vast majority of surfaces.
It's hookless which is dangerous. Should absolutely be banned. Total scam.
@namethatworks2@AndyAitcheson About 5% of the population died so, about the same as in WW1.
It was a high intensity society wide catastrophe that echoed down the generations.
It wasn't as bad as the 30 Years War. But the 30 years war was the apocalypse, so it's not a helpful comparison.
@AdrianRamsay Pathetic stuff Adrian. Couldn't bring yourself to more than retweet the news of our first ever parliamentary by-election win, no actual words from you on our first northern MP and you know as well as anyone the policies haven't changed and aren't set by the leader.
@scottjwillis These days it might feel odd because British cultural impact worldwide is totally insignificant to US culture. But the term stuck out here well before that flipped so, that's what we call you.
@scottjwillis Cultural context again! It is odd to an actual American to think of all Americans as Yanks, it has a different meanings in your culture.
Worldwide it's what the Brits called you, and they were culturally more significant that the US for the first 130+ years of US existance.
@tomhfh Just do trains. Like Switzerland. Except, it will be way easier to build back our train network because we don't live in the sodding Alps.
Or like China, or France, or Spain, or Japan.
We invented the best way to get around, it's still trains.
