Chop Souey is my favourite pundit.
And I like Roy Keane too.
Like me, they’re both cut from granite.

That would be some midfield trio, the game would be won before a ball is kicked. Souness, keane and smallman.
alistair Yup. Throw Danny Murphy, Michael Owen and Jimmy Floyd in there too.
I actually think Michael Owen gets a lot of unfair stick and is one of the better pundits around.
His voice is dull enough to send most people to sleep, but his actual analysis is often legit unparalleled. I don’t recall hearing any other pundit being so precise when dissecting shooting technique and what players do well and not so well when presented with a scoring chance. He sounds like he’d make an excellent coach (not manager) as well if he could be bothered.
TBF, Souey, Keane and Neville would probably be the ideal three for Super Sunday but that’s at least one too many men, not to mention they’re all white
bosstrabs a lot of that particular clip is stating the obvious, but he still gives extra details such as the point of pressing often being to herd the opposition into areas where they might lose the ball, rather than over-committing in trying to make a tackle then getting easily bypassed.
He’s definitely one of the few who seems to really understand what he’s talking about and often gives bits of additional insight you don’t get elsewhere.
Fuck me. Has this entire thread turned into a gigantic fishing expedition?

AKA the ‘Canadian Tuxedo’?
More Canada nonsense. Ignore as much as you feel necessary…
Canada has been without a fully national professional footy league since the early 1980s. We’ve had a few semi-pro things come and go, along with individual teams based in US leagues like the PDL, USL and MLS, but the Canadian Premier League is the first league that’s from coast to coast and fully Canadian run and based. Incidentally, the last time we qualified for the World Cup was when we had a professional league in Canada. The first Canadian Premier League season began in 2018.
Each team has to have at least 6 Canadian starters. They can only have a maximum of 7 foreign players out of the 23 man roster. 3 of the Canadians have to be under the age of 21 and play at least 1,500 minutes.
They started out with 7 clubs in 2018 and have already expanded to Ottawa (who’s co-owned by Atletico Madrid) and three more to come shortly in Sasketchewan, Windsor (Ontario - Richie Hawtin’s hometown) and Vancouver, BC. They’re also looking to expand beyond with a team based in my hometown of Kitchener-Waterloo, which would be nice to have an actual hometown club to put support behind instead of having to to to Hamilton (45 minutes) or Toronto (an hour away).
A women’s league with sister clubs is scheduled to launch in the next five years.
The quality of the football is meh, but it’s still a new league and is meant more as a developmental path for players. This is a rather good documentary about the first year.
