Jonny Evans time :drool:
What a block that was.
No idea what the keeper was doing.
Leicester aren't winning the league.Quote:

They will. Leeds aren’t going to go win another 8 in a row. Suppose Friday night will confirm that or notQuote:

It's genuinely beyond belief how poor we are at controlling a game after taking a lead.
Seems the Bochum fans have restocked their tennis ball supplies at half time.
:D
Wouldn’t surprise me if Luton equalise before a late Man Utd winner here
This ref is woeful.
United haven't been good enough to get super-keepered by some nobody like this since about 2011. 'Sir Jim' working his magic already.
Dodgy Liverpool decision in the cup final all over itQuote:

Two reds in consecutive games for Upamecano. Quite the form.
Kane going there and blowing up a previously unstoppable trophy machine is even funnier than Poch bringing his own brand of Spursyness to PSG and managing to lose the league to fucking Lille of all teams.
In fairness, Bayern have been just as bad (if not worse) for a couple of seasons now, there just wasn't a Leverkusen there to take advantage of the situation.
Dortmund had the title in the bag on the final day last year. Then they bottled it.
There's obviously just been a certain je ne sais quoi missing though to tip the good ship Munchen.
Neverkusen as the arch protagonists a significant concern though.
Saw the random Harry Styles at Kenilworth Road story and though, ah, fair play, is he a Luton fan, and it turned out no, he's a United fan. Just the worst.
Chris Coleman announcement imminent, not too unhappy with that.
I thought you were getting Carsley?
They couldn't afford him according to reports. In fairness the FAI are broke and he's working for the biggest association in the world.
Carsley apparently thinking he's going to get the big job once Sir Gareth tanks another tournament is even more depressing than the thought of Phillips, Maguire, Henderson and all of the other idiots Southgate continues to pick tanking said tournament.
Not watched a second of Jokensliga but xPTS suggests Leverkusen may crumble once that first defeat comes.
He'd be insane to leave that regardless of the contract, plus the FAI thought it would be a good idea to tell any candidates that they'd be sticking their oar in on a backroom team.Quote:

One of my favourite traditional posts, next England manager odds update:
Potter 8/1
Howe 9/1
Carsley 9/1
Guardiola 11/1 (why do they put this in? Like when Wenger was third favourite for 20 years)
Cooper 14/1
Gerrard 14/1
Klopp 16/1 (as above)
Wiegman 16/1 (can you imagine?)
Mourinho, Tuchel, Pochettino, Carrick, Lampard, Rodgers, Rooney 20/1
Holland, Nagelsmann 25/1
Mancini, Martinez, Deschamps, Amorim, Rangnick, Allegri, Hasselbaink, Zidane, Parker, Wenger 33/1 (there he is!)
Dyche, Ancelotti, Herdman 40/1
Then below that you have joke candidates, Roy Hodgson sneaking in at 66/1 surely decent value. Think Dyche is a bit hard done by to be longer than JFH.
Gerrard at 14's is the biggest joke there.
On the latest Rio Ferdinand podcast thing Jose Mourinho claims that the job was his in 2008 but he turned it down. He also called Rio's co-host fat and buried him forever.
FFP going that badly? lol
£20 million for some centrist dad? Just load up the FM database and sort by potential ability. Must be about thirty quid on Steam.
I do sometimes wonder if labour law just doesn't apply to football.
The problem is if someone tests it in court they will likely win but then the whole house of cards making them all rich falls down if players can just give notice at any time then leave for free.
Not sure that's quite the case, really.
Presumably Ashworth was happy to sign this contract with the extended gardening leave/compensation clauses whenever he wandered out on his last employer after having his head turned. Was that Brighton or the FA?
Quite funny how many of Brighton's highly prized former staff might end up on gardening leave/being paid not to work. Makes you think.
It's a contract and works both ways. Hence why Graham Potter probably has a gold house.
Everton v Palace might just be the most toxic fixture in football atm. Get the popcorn in.
Maybe the greatest piece of punditry I've ever seen.
Just say "Jobs for the boys" Graeme, you'll sound like less of a twat.
Christine Lampard stands on the Giant's Causeway, skirt blowing in the wind, hand shielding her vision from the cold February sun as she gazes far out to sea.
"What do you see, darling?"
"I see footballers, Frank. Glasgow Rangers footballers."
Saša Kalajdžic (that big bloke wolves signed before doing his ACL) has ruptured his Achilles for the 3rd time in 5 years. Pack it up son
Rumours that Salah is injured again. If it's true and Nunez's is an issue then I think that's it pretty much fucked it because it's two games a week now for pretty much ever starting on Wednesday.
Smoke and mirrors. They’ll all start on Sunday.
Really didn't need to waste 5 mins looking into bs rumours in a panic. Sort yourself out.
We're linked with a player from Sporting Lisbon for 45 million euros. Then I have a look and see he played for Coventry. Then I saw Coventry sold him for something like 25 million. How'd they find this guy? That must be their total transfer intake for a decade.
If it's Gyokeres then he came from Brighton.
And he is shit hot.
As if Sporting would sell him for less than £40m. Another £25m on top of that maybe
We were always being linked with him when he was at Coventry, especially as he scored 3 as they did the double over us. Wish we'd bit the bullet this summer with the knowledge that Mitro was off to the desert.
