Indeed. I got a pair of these wanky glasses myself after hearing about them a couple of years ago and they did make a difference at the time, so much so that I ending up falling asleep in them and snapping them in half.

Yeah the iPhone has the setting now too and it's coming to Windows 10 soon. Apparently the energy efficient bulbs are much worse for you than the old incandescents.

Nice, are the bulbs expensive? I assume they are super cheap to run?

At the bottom of the scale bulbs are relatively cheap but there are a few Chinese duds floating about too so you have to be a little wary. They're super cheap to run and will last you years without having to be changed.

I began by preferring Dier, because he was pretty good in that position last season, but Wanyama has been impressive, so for me right now it's 50/50 ... I'd be happy with either than position.

But I think the question mostly won't arise, because my feeling is that Poch has been sold - especially when the required players are all fit and available - on playing with a back 3 of Dier-Alderweireld-Vertongen, with Walker and Rose as wingbacks.

“The role Louis gave me at Old Trafford was unique. It was extraordinary that he gave me so much responsibility. He gave me his complete trust."

“At United, I was doing the training sessions for the selected first team before games. I was fully in charge.

“I was doing all the pre-match team talks, and I did the post-match talk with the team and individual players.”

“Louis gave me the opportunity to develop myself at the top level and lead in so many ways.

“Why do I rate Van Gaal? Because he’s a man who can judge if you have quality or not.

"We had a great rapport when we worked together for the Dutch FA when Louis was national coach and I was coach of the Under-21 side.

“From there, Louis decided to take me to United. I consider that a major compliment, because Van Gaal was someone who had made his mark in the world of international football.”
