Re: Who do we want in round 4?

Something like 20 United players will be away at the World Cup At least 14 off the top of my head - although it is late so forgive me if any of these might be wrong - I had to look up to see whether Lindelof and Sweden were going Ronaldo / Fernandes / Dalot Maguire / Rashford / Shaw Varane / Martin...

Good point if aimed straight.

No side from Cardiff has ever won the Welsh Premier. Inter Cardiff were runners up 4 times, but they were really Sully, so more Penarth than Cardiff.

Re: Union Berlin

Been some eventful few years for Union. Promoted to the Bundesliga in 2019 for the first time. Qualified for the Conference League last season, were drawn against Ajax today. And top of the Bundesliga with a budget dwarfing the teams around them. For so long Berlin's been a sleeping giant. Mad fact...
