That's a good call. And probably much better than Henderson.
Never thought about him at all, but he'd fit the bill very well.

Interesting suggestion. Rafa Benitez likes him, which is recommendation enough for me. He does have a tendency to get more bookings than goals though.

Shelvey is the closest England have to Pirlo. He's seriously screwed the nut in the last year too. Not including him in England's squad was probably Southgate's biggest mistake.

I'll actually be cheering for Scottish football on Friday! Aberdeen play Burnley.https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/44921895. I see now why you compared the 2 the other week. I didn't know till yesterday that they were playing each other. It's a pity that one will go out at this stage and not make the group stages,seeing as some right crap teams form obscure places will. They could've seeded the teams a bit better wouldn't you say?

More crap and obscure than Burnley? Crikey!
I know they've got historic pedigree, but it's over 50 years since Burnley last played in Europe. The seeding is probably based on more recent form.
I hope they do well, though - I like Sean Dyche.
I vaguely remember Aberdeen being a regular European side for a few seasons in the early 80s. That beetroot-faced bloke who used to manage them at the time was quite good... wonder what ever became of him?
I've just had a look through the fixtures to see who else is in the mix. Much faded glory to be seen... Steaua Bucharest! Now they really were a very good side once upon a time - and not nearly as long ago as Burnley.

Maybe it's because i live 10 miles away from 'Dingle land',which subjects me to constant propaganda about how big they supposedly are,now that they consider themselves an established Premiership club.
Their fans mocked Blackburn Rovers for ,losing to Trelleborgs in the mid 1990's in their European Cup/Champions League campaign. I hope the Dingles get a good pasting,but in a way i'd like them to get through against Aberdeen then get pasted by some crap Cypriot team or similar,providing that is if there's another preliminary round after this one.

I wonder if Dukla Prague are in there?
They finished 11th in the Czech league last season.

It should be a good game, but Aberdeen have just sold their best forward to Salford City which will blunt their attack somewhat. I don't blame him for leaving, McInnes was fannying about trying to turn him into a winger and it wasn't working.

Salford City?! In the words of a famous milk advert, "who are dey"?
Seriously?
Accrington's chairman isn't a fan...

Without looking it up i think Stanley's chairman accused Salford of buying promotion. Something which rattled the Mancs cage,especially arch Manc Neville.
