Yeah he's certainly trying, trying the patience of Chelsea supporters worldwide!

How was the sending off in anyway a controversial moment?
The best part of this game has been Andy Madley's mic quite often making him look like a quite plausible A-dolf Hitler. Other than that, substandard soccer from all except Cole Palmer.
Martin Keown has also given the worst co-commentary of the 21st century. Bring back Lawro.
Chelsea should play some sort of diamond. Palmer's really good in that 10 role, but Caicedo and Gallgher are much better as '8s' than 'double 6s' or whatever you call them in this system. Get Waff's man anchoring the whole lot and trade as much of the attacking dross as possible for Osimhen to play up alongside Jackson.
3 at the back is still annoyingly the formation that suits the whole team. Every centre back Chelsea have is suited to playing the ‘wife’ centre back role. Chilwell is obviously only useful when making late runs and not being in the build up at the back. All the wingers at the club are dreadful so playing as narrow ‘10s’ also makes a whole lot of sense with Palmer and Chukwuemeka doing that until Nkunku comes back for a couple games.
Regardless, the team looks much better without Sterling but you just know he will start the first game back.
I never like 3 at the back, particularly not if you want to be a top team, it's too defensive.
Brighton, whilst not a top team, got so much better when they shifted consistently away from the extra defensive player and started taking risks. You just need two decent centre-halves who can run.
Lmaoooo
Looking like a decent weekend in the league for United.
I see Goe Jomez is preferred at RB to Bradley. Considering they've Rashford and Hojlund, you assume the former is wide left.
Considering you've no tracking back from Rashford or Fernandes, the absence of Casemiro could be big. Hopefully we don't turn out another inexplicable performance like we did at Anfield.
Lee Dixon is so shit.
McSauce :cool:
McSasssssssss :drool:
Another inexplicable performance underway. Pull the finger out lads.
Mainoo is quality.
Mainoo on the half turn :drool:
I still don't think things like that should be offside. The feet he needs to run with were behind.
Someone needs to organise an Arsenal legends game then bomb the stadium so terrestrial TV can be finally rid of pathetic co-commentators. It was ear-bleeding stuff listening to Keown earlier but Dixon is pushing him already.
Onana is not very good at saving things.
Is their a reply or straight to ET? Quansah :drool:
Yeassss
Salah tried his best to miss that.
Was that the only place the 'keeper could palm that to?
Poppadom wrists for sure
Yanited! Mentality monstrosities. More fight in a group of autists than this sack of shit.
Can we get a VAR for that pls cause that rat-faced captain cunt was down on the ground so you'd imagine he would have been fouled.
We've got Szobo, Quansah, Endo like some international Abercrombie & Fitch exhibition and they've got king ratface and his incest offspring :D
They've done the same thing they did against City. Started well, flying about, gassed themselves out and then lost it.
Even if United play well, they’ve still got Onana in net who’s always susceptible to conceding. It’s funny how bad he is. Also there’s not a chance on earth he’s 6’3” like wiki says, even measuring to the top of his hair.
They should just pre-record the punditry for United games, or show the same one every week.
How you picking on Onana, you tory cunt, he's been their best player for the last few months ffs. Their quarter of Bruno, McTominay, Rashford and Garnacho are where the criticism should be aimed at. The attitude and work-rate (or just intelligence in McTominay's case) is comical.
Aye as much as it pains me to agree, Taz is bang on re:Onana.
Stating the obvious I know, but there seems to be a modicum of disbelief at them losing here, so I will anyway. They're just an above average Premier League team these days, who don't really stand much of a chance against sides like Liverpool and City.
Bruno should go for that, bad refereeing. Out of control, should be a second yellow.
FA Cup they seem to give a lot of leeway on everything / not apply the laws of the game.
Fernandes and Garnacho need to grow up.. spend the whole game crying and whining. Just play the fucking game.
Yellow for Gomez but no yellow for Fernandes for the same tackle.
20 mins of Antony-ball. We've deserved it :drool:
This will end 4 or 5.
Commentator speculating as to Liverpool's strength in the second half of matches, don't open that door matey, you don't want to go there.
The way the Liverpool players are all sprinting there :D
Joke
Glorious timing as Sir Dave Brailsford comes on screen, he can see what United are missing.
A thunderous finish.
Taz ball :drool:
I didn’t think even Taz had the power to make that happen.
