It was so good watching the line of twats seething on the bench at the end of that Madrid game.

I'd missed this. Never knew Drogheda was in Yorkshire.
Watching Rolando Aarons' Verona take on Roma. Just seen the most brainless red card for years from Pellegrini (Roma). Violent too. Verona had a counter attack, 2 on 2 but still in their own half and Roma defenders comfortably covering, then Pellegrini runs from behind and sends his studs down the calf of the Verona player. Bizarre. Twenty five to go with Roma 1-0 up.
Also it's about time somebody on here drooled over Izquierdo's goal. I'm warming to him - goals like that, a pet pig, and a Super Mario laugh: the complete player.
It's always nice when Sky give Graeme Souness the opportunity to crack his knuckles and lay into Newcastle/North East football, but I feel he could go a lot further and just call them a nothing club with too big a stadium giving them delusions of size.
Sunderland have a MASSIVE stadium as well, which will be awkward in League One, and frankly so do Middlesbrough. Is football and postal voting all they have up there? Although I saw the nation's first drive-thru Greggs will soon be opening in the region.
That defending was amazing.
Pretty much every Palace player going for it and missing.
Kenedy and Diame
Diame has been so so bad all season, fuck knows what has happened but he's now the best player we've ever had.
Footballers just have too many tattoos now and this game is a great example. What has Zaha put on his neck and why?
I have great respect for those who retain clean skin.
It's even worse than you might realise as Newcastle have about 4 players in the 11 who are covered in them but have them hidden under long sleeves.
Boruc has a cracker:
I think it's just being paid stupid amounts of money but not having a clue what to waste it on. You see a few more tattoos in general society now than you used to, but in pro football it seems to be illegal not to be covered in them.
Jason Cummings has managed to incorporate his tattoos into his goal celebration. He has a grotesque comic book Joker mouth with 'SMILE!' beside it on his hand and when he scores he runs off covering his face with it. Just smile with your own mouth you fucking twonk.
Darlow is shit
Just bet on Palace -0.25, it's a rape at the moment.
He's clearly a good athlete but Yedlin doesn't appear to have even a modicum of footballing ability.
Then on the other side you have Dummett who is not an athlete and not very good at football either. Better defender than Yedlin though.
Sub Darlow off for fucks sake.
I'm almost certain a look into his history would reveal that Yedlin came to football late after he didn't quite make the cut as a sprinter.
EDIT - Nope. Started playing at four and has been in organised systems since eleven. How can you do something for twenty years and still be that bad at it?
Our biggest problem is going into games like this with 10 men. Gayle was listed in the starting 11 but he must have had a better offer.
This game is like a dramatic reconstruction of an epileptic fit, as I suppose is apt for when these two clubs meet.
45 mins of pure pressing.
Both are going to be tired in the last 10 mins. Should be DRAMA.
For someone who is smashing the season and scoring goals for fun, Salah's decision making remains utterly atrocious. If he got that sorted he'd be the best player in the world.
Waaaaaay what a wanker.
But then he wouldn’t be at Anfield.
He’s improved, used to miss so many chances.
Getting a bit scary this, hopefully we get through and take more control again.
He didn’t even call for that penalty and tried to play on - why’s he been booked?
Neville with Torres cum voice lite there.
2018 Tony Yeboah, that.
Alli is such a gyppo
WHAT A HIT SON but yet more shite from the lazy coward Oxlade-Chamberlain to let him have it.
Just dont chuck it. The draw isn't horrific.
That penalty was fucking horrific
That was a disgraceful penalty.
Exactly why VAR is needed. Offside and he dived.
I see he's getting in practice for potential penalties in the summer.
Why didn't Karius go off? Clear red, he'd have scored otherwise.
Yeah they decided a few years back it shouldnt be a sending off and a penalty in cases like that.
Have only seen the incident once, but it looked like a clear penalty to me.
This last 5 minutes is a great demonstration of why Tottenham Hotspur haven't won the league for 57 years and will never win it again.
Dear God that's a beautiful call.
Get this linesman promoted.
I'll even take the Liverpool win if Harry Kane misses again.
