The chimp “ruining bounce ups”

Did anyone notice in our game on Sat.
One of theirs lay on the ball covering it with his legs basically obstructing the Liverpool player TAA from playing it.
Saturday. The ref shits his kecks, blows the whistle and gives an uncontested bounce up to the Saints player.

Just double-checking my Squires-ness, Vardiola morphs into Mark Hughes? Kidd is treating Aguero to a display of Fredo?

Yeah. I thought at first Hughes was emerging from Pink Floyd’s The Division Bell, but that’s surely not the reference there?

It's a scene from Total Recall - but I don't get the relevance of sneaking into the City changing room, apart from the facial recognition stuff from ADFC (or if the guy underneath the Bald Fraud head is supposed to be Hughes)

Think Squires does a good job at mixing obvious visual gags with the occasional more in-depth, Easter-eggy things...

Yeah, I think it's supposed to be Mark Hughes, sneaking back as City manager.

I saw a thread on Twitter saying a similar thing and quite a few Italian fans were saying he's immature which is why they weren't too bothered about keeping him at Juve.

Is the mention of a pogba obsession a similar implication there too? If so, that one seems like a miss too, given how overhyped pogba is by so many clueless pundits.
