      Don't let that bother you though. Haaland is always a good C choice.

        No one's begging for help here mate. We all just try to discuss and share ideas here. And it's completely fine to have a little banter sometimes. Don't be a sore loser, it's festive season.

    'In the last part of the [Palace] game [on Tuesday], he felt something and could not carry on. So, he's out.'
