I've never forgiven Peter Schmeichel for failing to call his son Michael.

Yep, Kasper kept the score respectable. One his day, he's a decent shot stopper.
A spirited and energetic performance from Leicester but the difference in class is easy to see. I can't see us splashing the cash to bridge the gap so I suspect we're starting to see the decline of Leicester. I'm not (overly) worried about this season (though you can never underestimate our ability to fold, as will probably be witnessed n Sunday) but next season might prove a little more testing.
Still, we've got a superb, state-of-the-art the art training ground and a swanky new stadium on the horizon so we might well appeal to some wealthy investment group. King Power could be thinking of cashing out soon as their own business isn't as strong as it once was.

Hoping we can lift the World Club Cup tomorrow although Palmeiras are no slouches.
Be nice as this pot eluded us last time round.
Would bring us up to 23 major trophies this millennium.
I think the only English teams to have succeeded to date have been MUFC & LFC?
Apparently the competition is a much bigger deal around the rest of Europe, South America etc. I wonder why?

Surprised that the Rooney 'studs' admission dropped out of the News so rapidly.

I think basic shithousery never really stays on the radar for long does it, when the person has a long track record of nuclear level shithousery. This is the guy who cheated on his wife and kids with a prostitute, boffed a granny, drove his car drunk, got arrested and charged with public intoxication and swearing, all sorts. He's hardly in the Arsene Wenger mould of managers.
It'd be big news if say, Pele admitted to using sharpened studs, or if say, Chris Packham admitted that he likes shooting garden birds with a blunderbuss, but let's face it, this "admission" is pretty much par for the Wayne Rooney course and surprises the public not one jot.

He's got a book out I think?
Just standard publicity garnering. Maybe not even true, makes a good story though.

I did find it strange that the 'victim' John Terry (no Saint himself) responded to Rooney's Tweet with a laughing/tears emoji.
Which, tbh, I've never really understood the meaning of.
But then I'm an old git and don't really get emojis and memes etc. anyway.

I'm a Leicester City supporter but I cannot wait for Newcastle to start spending BIG and give some serious opposition to Chelski, and Man City.

Spending big does not guarantee success any more, there are now several clubs who can do the same and only a limited number of players around who can make a real difference. When Chelsea got their Russian

I do not think there are " several clubs who can do the same " I think Chelski and Man City plus Man Utd and probably to be joined by Newcastle are in a spending league all of their own (does this count as several ? ) Sure Spurs, Arsenal, Liverpool, Everton and others have wealthy owners but on a different level to the aforementioned.
