People who watch English football do not do well with those who believe their own hype; at least until they prove themselves.

The Saints came back from 31-13 to win 34-31 against a good Redskins team.

Judge Mkhitaryan and Lukaku upon Pogba’s return, they have an excuse for poor form
In the fantastic book The Numbers Game, authors Chris Anderson and David Sally argue the point that owners of football clubs can spend all the money in the world on the best superstar striker, but if said club’s weak link in the team keeps giving the ball away, that striker won’t get enough chances to make a seismic impact.
