One normal day of BBC Get Involves, that's all I ask for...

What do you mean Steve? I'm not following here.

Overripe bananas are mushy. Is Harry Kane mushy?

Overripe bananas are also ideal for elite level Banana Bread. Is that what you're referring to, Steve?

Is Kane a past his use by banana that could be salvaged with the right ingredients around him?

Is that what you mean, Steve? Steve?

For O'Neill, the potential World Cup implications aren't at the forefront of his mind and promotion is his immediate focus.

"We want to progress and get to the next level of the Nations League.

"We're a little bit unsure of what if affects down the line in terms of World Cup qualification and play-offs.

"I don't think anyone really knows how that sits until the whole Nations League has played out."

O'Neill added that it is still "out of our control" and he doesn't want his side to get "bogged down" in permutations.

"The most important thing for us is to finish strongly in the group.

"We want to make sure in these two games that we take the maximum points that we can."

It is no secret that the Nations League has not been Northern Ireland's favourite competition.

But their fortunes in the Nations League are beginning to turn around, with three wins in their last six matches and they sit top of Group C3 with two games remaining.

Michael O'Neill is developing a young Northern Ireland team that has bags of potential.

Promotion to League B feels like the next natural step for NI, but it could also creak open a back door into the World Cup in 2026.

Northern Ireland are in action on Friday, against Belarus in the Nations League.

And there could be a lot riding on the result.

Tottenham Hotspur

Just had another look at our Gossip page and Jack Grealish is being linked with a move to Tottenham.

It's not out of the question. And Tottenham would suit a Grealish-type player.

Loads of ideas, but knowing you lot it's going to turn into "If the England men's team was a fruit bowl, what fruit would each player be".

Any chat on your favourite international football memories are always welcome.

We'll be hearing from Morgan Rogers soon who said David Beckham's free-kick against Greece is his stand-out.

There's always fan oversized luggage and general travel shenanigan stories to talk about. I am still wondering, by the way...

Oh, and it's world kindness day today. Any tales of footballers behaving like an absolute saint off the pitch would be grand.

You lot are always the best thing about our lives.

Your contributions are informative and very often hilarious.

The last two live texts I've done you've turned the Get Involves into "What pudding would Tottenham be?" and "Your poems to sum up Manchester United".

Who knows where today will go, the floor is yours. What oddities will we end up talking about?

An intriguing line from the Gossip page this morning.

A double defensive swoop.

I wonder what's the strangest football-related item that's ever gone through oversized luggage.

BBC 5 Live Breakfast

Football journalist Flo Lloyd Hughes on BBC Radio 5 Live Breakfast: "Manchester City's win was an important win and there were also a lot of changes in Gareth Taylor’s team. Probably their best of the season.

"Hammarby did pretty well against a team that has a much bigger budget and world class international players.

"The fanbase, I think it’s growing. Teams in Europe have that traditionally in their clubs anyway.

"I read a story about one of their fans paying £100 in order to get the excess baggage to get his huge drum over from Sweden."

There's also this story doing the rounds on Thomas Tuchel's late arrival to the England fold the reason behind a flurry of player withdrawals, according to some clubs.

Let's stick with the Papers. A lot of them have focused on Premier League referee David Coote’s alleged expletive-laden insults about Liverpool and their former manager Jurgen Klopp.

Here's everything you need to know.

See this story yesterday? Bruno Fernandes helped out a passenger who had taken ill on a flight to Portugal.

Another assist for the Manchester United midfielder.

Manchester City didn't have it all their own way last night.

They started brightly on a cold evening at Joie Stadium, but they struggled to find a way into the opposition's box as the visitors worked tirelessly off the ball.

"They outnumber us in terms of size but the girls handled it really well," said City boss Gareth Taylor.

"We were just a bit off in our final action, decent crosses, a little bit reactive and a little bit late. We just needed to speed up on being in the end of that."

Did anyone expect Arsenal to start the season this strong?

And what more does Renee Slegers need to do to shake off that "interim" tag and get the job full-time?

Arsenal maintained their stellar run of form under interim boss Renee Slegers by beating Juventus in the Women's Champions League.

Frida Maanum, Stina Blackstenius, Mariona Caldentey and Caitlin Foord all scored to ensure Arsenal are now unbeaten in five matches since Slegers took over following Jonas Eidevall's resignation.

The win means Arsenal stay second in Group C after three games, three points ahead of their third-placed Italian opponents and three points behind leaders Bayern Munich.

When Emily says "raucous travelling fanbase" she wasn't joking.

Hammarby's supporters are some of the most dedicated in the women's game.

Tifos, ultras, huge choreographies - they go hard.

Here's a great feature we wrote yesterday. The perfect morning read.

Manchester City continued their 100% start in the Women's Champions League with a hard-fought 2-0 win over Hammarby.

After a frustrating first half in which the hard-working visitors limited City's chances, Gareth Taylor's side finally broke the deadlock when Laura Blindkilde Brown swept home less than two minutes after the restart.

Hammarby threatened late on with Ayaka Yamashita called to action, a superb fingertip save keeping out a fierce strike from substitute Thea Sorbo.

The Swedish side, cheered on by a raucous travelling fanbase, had their hopes crushed when Aoba Fujino's diving header nestled into the back of the net with 10 minutes remaining.

The win leaves Manchester City top of Group D with nine points from their opening three group stage fixtures.
