I couldn’t care less about the Caribou Cup.

I used to like it when it was early in Wenger’s tenure and he’d put a bunch of kids out and we’d smash a few teams before going out in the semis or whatever.

But as a trophy, who cares?

1. I agree. I couldnt pick that trophy out of a lineup.

2. Teams that dont win much else.

That being said Liverpool are fielding a squad comprised of a 'whos-who of whoever.'

I mean it's definitely hard to take a trophy seriously when it changes names every three years and was once named after one of the poorest beers around.

Loving terrible Beer is like a British rite of passage and considered an honourable tradition though.

"I want to drink....but this stuff is miserable....but it must be done!"

"We shall drink it to the end! We shall drink it in France, we shall drink it on the seas and oceans, we shall drink it with growing confidence and growing strength!"

Its like the Plucky Brit of Beer.

Could you imagine the Tim Horton's Stanley Cup being handed out every year?

I don't wanna know what mileage they would have gotten off the Penguins (or anyone) winning back to backs.

Especially if they filled it with hot coffee before handing it to the players.

Irons.



And West Ham's Twitter is going crazy about a save made by Fabianski when he isn't even in goal.

Lol BBC Sport posted an update on the United game, and it begs the obvious question: How is it every picture of Phil Jones has some kind of trademark Phil Jones face?

fun fact, there's a Phil Jones face for every stage of Brexit. This is where things are at the moment, in case you're wondering:

2 - 0 Oxford.

Well, it was fun to mock Tottenham for less than a day.

This has got to be a record, but due to power outages there are 28 minutes of added time between Burton and Bournemouth.
