Lots of oil drilling potential, I think.
Other than them being close to Argentina mainland i don't see the logic in their claim. Falklands were already a British outpost when Argentina was founded as a country

It’s 100% that, my now retired uncle worked for Gulf Offshore, he spent most of the 90s and early 00s travelling back and forth to the Falklands working six weeks on six weeks off.

Barca cannot sell him unless they get a replacement striker

It's a bit more complicated than that. I particularly like the bit where we abandoned the islands for 59 years during which time our only claim to sovereignty was that we had left behind a flag and a plaque claiming it.

It was a Spanish overseas territory that Britain inhabited on the sly and then asserted ownership. Spain were contested this British claim to the island and Argentina once they separated from Spain inherited their claim.

It’s rather flippant but I like to say that if the Hispanic majority Argentines hand the land mass now known as Argentina back to the indigenous peoples then they can come and live in the Falklands

I think that's a fair valuation but I just can't see who's going to buy him that could afford him

Romero & Richie for Torres?!!
I can’t think of a less-Barca style player than our Richie

I never said he was the only dirty player in the Premier League. Players like Van Dijk and Gabriel might get away with murder at times, but that doesn't mean Romero is being treated unfairly. If anything, it just highlights the lack of consistency. I'd even argue the players I mentioned get more favourable treatment because they play for bigger clubs.
Romero has built a reputation as a dirty player over several years because he regularly makes reckless, unnecessary challenges. Just think back to his tackle on Richarlison when he was at Everton—the ball was already going out of play, but Romero still couldn't resist the opportunity to clean out a Brazilian.

I said I support their right to want to claim it.
The other problem being he often wouldn't be around for such games because he's suspended or injured like he was so often.
You know, like for the end of season relegation scrap for the last 6 games where he was missing and we got 11 points - a far greater return than we had been getting with him in the side....

Let's have it right, Thatcher wanted another term in power, and a fabricated war victory made her look good. We picked a fight we knew we could win, against a country who had no come back.

That injury wasn’t a muscle strain or anything like that, it was caused by an opponent and you can’t put that on him.
But when you need reliability I agree he is not your guy.
As far as the points argument goes, that was about RDZ more than any player. You never know we could have got more points with him in the side.
