Everton v Liverpool looks like a tasty match to trade!

U/O’s look inviting

Do you find women's and U23 matches worthwhile trading? I've only been trading football for a year odd and never traded them, but only because there's usually first-tier football on, even if it is Bolivia or Paraguay.

Some of them

the thing I find if trading U23s is higher rate of a number of late goals (or that's what I perceive)
I personally put it down to that they're giving 125% at the start of the match to try and impress (youthful exuberance) and therefore there becomes a lot of tired legs on the pitch.

100% agree with your observation. That's why we usually see very high odds at extra time of youth games

Everton fans were jeering their own players last match, I could see Rafa Benitez getting sacked if they lose to Liverpool tonight. Shame the sack market only has a few hundred matched.

I really thought Rafa would do well, he's finally at a club that is allowed to spend some money, but apparently they have bigger problems at the club.

I always thought Rafa was overrated to be honest.

Perhaps. But then look at his contemporaries. Fergie, Wenger, Ancelotti and Mourhino. Any success in that context is worthy of respect.
Champions of Europe. But he is surely going to suffer the drag of being ex-liverpool manager every time Everton fall short.
And I have to admit it ain't going well so far for him with the Toffee's. And to ensure there is no red v blue gloating here, I really want Rafa to succeed.
As I've said before, the perfect end of season league table for me would be: Tranmere; Liverpool and Everton.

I think his biggest achievement was back to back La Liga's with Valencia. Obviously Champions Lge with Liverpool is the biggest trophy on his CV but what's he done since? A Europa Lge with Chelsea as interim manager isn't much to show in 16 years considering he's managed Inter, Napoli and the biggest club in the world in Real Madrid.

If you've got a medical emergency, don't dial 999 and wait an hour for an ambulance. Go to a football match and get immediate medical attention.

(I hope he's okay!)

Watford and Chelsea players have left the pitch after 12 minutes while a fan receives treatment.

A fan has had a heart attack and is receiving CPR. Apologies for making a joke out of it.

It's curious how this seems to have happened so often recently.

It's surprising it doesn't happen frequently with 50,000 fans in a stadium or getting onto a million in stadiums on a Saturday afternoon.

Players refusing to leave the dressing room until they have definitive news of the patient.
