Not really read anything particularly, but much like with United, he was heralded as the perfect replacement for Sky with the deep pockets to fund continued success.

It's more an observation that in the 5 years as Ineos, despite the budget being there, they've gone backwards and more or less abandoned the ethos that made them a great team in the first place. They've completely lost their identity. Maybe the riders aren't there but the whole mentality was to build a team capable of propelling the team leader to titles.

3rd sending off, will that be a 4 game ban now?

Gary O’Neill also being really shown up as not a very good manager.

One was rescinded (cos it was absolute bollox) and the other was against Porto (soft af).

So no!

Are you allowed to do this? I genuinely don't know if it's a foul

1 game ban so misses Newcastle along with Ugarte who is also suspended and the injured Mount.

Insightful comment from Amorim after the game: “It's so tough to win games in this league with 11 men. With 10 men, it's more difficult. We have to focus on that”.
