Weekend Football: the Liverpool derby and the Pep-Mou Classic

[Adamski]

Widely seen as a decent player :D

Arsenal will win that trophy easily, so the league doesn't even matter. Well done Arsene, four more years.

2 wins away from home all season. 56% of our away goals have been scored against Everton.

I said this about United at the same time last year and the same lines of denial came out. 'Ooh, the defence.' 'Ooh, Roma'. 'Ooh, fixture congestion'. Absolutely pissed it. Arsenal will be the same.

That's a great draw for Celtic, though I reckon 2-0 at home followed by a 4-0 tonking away is distinctly possible.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Bobby Manc now in charge there I see.

Other than him, the era of getting fancy forrin managers seems to have ended in favour of Soviet blocks of wood. Ska-Khabarovsk looks like a fruity away day too.

I'm pretty sure they introduced a law about hiring foreigners means paying a luxury tax of some sort.

It's nice that Lukaku's roasting hot start has calmed a bit so I don't look as much of a berk for saying before the season that his concrete first touch would do for him at United. Morata comfortably the better player.

[Spoonsky]

PSG and Madrid will be fun, and I'm happy whoever loses. What I really want is for Barcelona to knock Neymar and his goon squad out though.

Watching Liverpool in a Champions League knockout game :drool:

The only thing better(?) than being right about it is Football365 never mentioning him in their conclusions/match reports because they have spent the past four years calling everyone who doubted him a racist.

Wanting Barcelona to win :sick:

Bakayoko to break Messi’s legs in half.

[Jimmy Floyd]

To do that he'd have to get within ten yards of him.

[Disco]

He lives in America, it makes about as much sense as wanting Liverpool to win.

[Giggles]

Speaking of which, Porto have form for being dirty fuckers so is there any good candidate in there to maim Salah?

[niko_cee]

It'll be a bit late on for that really, when are these played, late February?

Just seen Everton's penalty 'incident'. Fucking lol at that. Lovren is obviously a serial asshat, and Klopp's wandered into 'facht' territory with some of the shit afterwards, but that is never a penalty. I was expecting a proper hand in the back job, or at least an extended arm.

[Kikó]

He shouldn't let it bounce in the first instance.

[Giggles]

Should be a Monday game every week because there's absolutely fuck all on telly.
