    Yeah, but marginal gains are meant to make a difference. I refuse to believe the ball thing does. They don't get it any further out from the goal line, or closer to the goal than they could legally as they always do it at the midpoint. It's psychological shite at best.

    Soccer players are thick as mince though so they probably don't realise.

    That's a special effort from Leicester. Three of the worst penalties you are ever likely to see (outside of Raheem's effort).

    Maddinson in particular televised which way he was going so clearly even I knew where he was going, then he dribbles it that way to boot.

    lol I just noticed River lost their world semi-final to Al-Forty Lashes. Without looking, I predict that nerd football twitter will be in floods of tears over that.

    Burton into the pot semis as well, wouldn't mind us drawing and losing to them.

    Not enough micro-steps.

    Fuck knows what a long-haired Turkish centre-half was doing with a double stutter. Mate, just put your foot through it. You're a centre-half, that's what you're meant to do.

    Gundogan's was poor as well, but the 'keeper botched it.

    Keep dreaming Jimmy, City will get Burton.

    Your final line is correct. If being outside the quadrant is considered an advantage (because otherwise why would you have the quadrant) why would you try to be inside it?

    I agree it's a pretty weird choice, but he'll probably do fine in the same way I'd do fine as Man Utd on Football Manager.

    The Napoli owner,

    “Sarri was against all, put the posters on the street, then managed to be loved even by the most extreme fans,” he told Corriere dello Mezzogiorno.


    “He is an individualist, one who worked on the fields and on the ground, in the middle of the stones and suffered because he was exonerated after six games.


    “Then he had the ride from C to A and when we lost 4-2 against him, I thought he was the right one.


    ”Sarri seemed a mild person, I discovered that he was too dissatisfied with his past. For a communist, basing everything on money god led to a syndrome of unbearability. I told him, ‘But who do we buy?’, And he said he did not want to know anything about it. I found him out of sight, his wife could not come to the stands.”

    Even when translated into English, Italian is just a load of gibberish.

    I was reading online that whenever there is a push on rainbow laces/armbands etc. He is nowhere to be seen. Not sure how true that is though.

    I didn't check back beyond the last two years but he has definitely missed the last two rainbow laces games with unexplained short-term 'illness', or maybe it was a back tweak this year.

    Is it really that mental to think a devout Muslim might avoid supporting gays?

    Considering he was out with an 'illness' once after being out in Berlin at his mates birthday in a gay bar not long before a match. Yeah kind of.

    It also doesn't explain the other countless examples of him being 'ill' when the campaigns not going on. Safer to just assume he's a homophobe because he's a bloody muzza though.

    Has been Lingard since he started appearing at the end of that JD Sports ad which exclusively features mixed race people. No black, no white, just mixed race. They must perform unbelievable feats on quant marketing surveys of 18-30 consumers.

    Sancho on one of those runs where absolutely everything goes in.



    I'm on the Sancho train but that should never get to the keeper let alone past him.

    I checked the fixtures and City in the second half still have to go away to pretty much every team below 6th. They seem to have played them all at the murder stadium already.

    To this day it's hilarious how much of a moral journey Arsenal fans go on when they play teams like Burnley and Stoke. The Brexit vote hasn't helped either.

    Thats a lovely finish from Schlupp, however knowing how bad he is I cant help but think it was a cross.

    Edit: Holy fucking shit Andros Townsend.
