OK, first off I have to say that that's a great story and I enjoyed its plausibility very much - it was real to me and spoke to me as a reader.

But, I have to draw you up on one point and it's a minor one, I admit. Far be it from me to criticise you as an author or your 'process' as I believe you creative types refer to it as, but can I ask:

If Kane's been kidnapped by Russian gangsters, why have they let him out to go and eat pie and mash allowing Harry and Sandra to recapture him?

I know, I know, I'm being nitpicky. I'm just a reader, you're the author. There's no doubt a meaning behind it and I can't see it. Apologies.
On reflection there are too many people called Harry in this story. I had to cut a whole chapter about Harry Winks finding himself on a 6 month well building project in Guatemala. I might swap Redknapp outside a pie and mash shop for David Ginola outside a hairdressers in the final edit.

Before we celebrate too hard, remember this group of players have now thrown both Poch and Jose under the bus...
At least we have couple of youngsters that are ready to take the next step now, like Tanganga, Sessegnon, Skipp and some new players like Rodon, Hojbjerg, Bergwijn (hopefully does better with next coach), Reguilon and others that weren't a part of that group.

Stephen Warnock on Sky:

“...other than Kane and Son, probably only Sissoko gets into the other top 4 sides. Sissoko has been held back massively by Jose Mourinho”

Wow.

What is he on about? I've liked Sissoko for attitude and when he had his period of being good he offered a lot, despite a shocking touch. But to say that is rediculous. He is not good enough for top 10 let alone top 4.

hopefully this is not forgotten and we clear out some of the weak players and those with crap attitudes, quite a task. While we are at it Levy needs to have a good hard look in the mirror, not a pretty sight.

all excuses for these players are now over - don't want to hear anyone defending them moving forward. You cant hide behind a third manager.

PP not paying out on this until the start of the 21/22 season. Why? Because he might get the job back before then. How fuckin Spursy would that be :LOL:

I like the use of tropic messaging, I must admit. It strikes me as redolent of Kandinsky's use of abstract forms to convey the deep uncertainty and spiritual power of the human soul. To that end, I think a scene involving Danielle Lloyd might be in order, possibly with Jamie O'Hara as the wizened traveller returning to his lost love - a commentary on modern society's descent into the too-much-too-soon rentier milieu.

Wow.
Everything that’s happened this morning and this is the thing that’s tipped me over the edge :ROFLMAO:

I need a minute to process this, fuck me.

Mourinho wanted Levy to sell Kane to rebuild and Levy said fuck off we're going to the Super League, and went and got Ryan Mason?
