    That's a bullshit decision, but it would be interesting to know if VAR would overturn it. There is fractional contact, after all.

    Clipping leg stump I think. You can stay with your on field decision Marais, you're on screen now.

    How is this working in countries where they have it already?

    He's killed so many attacks as well by just running into a defender. He's utterly hopeless.

    Not even being able to beat Arsenal will set Ole Gunnar Binman's job application back about three months.

    I think Fred has been alright. Marcus Rashford has killed more attacks than anyone, and the less said about his mate the better.

    Yeah, it's a bit of a worry if they start cooling off on him.

    What the fuck is wrong with fans at the moment though?

    Frustrating game but Lukaku failed to take any chances which cost us. Move on.

    Rashford had a couple of moments though (the pass to Lukaku).

    Probably all still pissed from midweek.

    How do Arsenal not have another domestic game until April? How do you end up playing 27 games a week in December/January and now have 3 weeks off?

    I like the March international break. One of the signs that winter is about to fuck off to the dustbin of history where it belongs (the Masters is the victory parade).

    We had rain, snow, hail, gale force winds, complete stillness, and very pleasantly warm sunshine over the course of about four hours yesterday.

    Well he needs something to do until Ole decides to give up the United job, I suppose.

    An astronomical amount of money, probably.

    I suppose it can't get much worse for Real, so Zidane doesn't have THAT much to lose going there anymore. And no pressure to achieve anything until next season really.

    It's worked out quite nicely for him. Whether or not he actually knew the team needed breaking up last year, they will be chucking loads of money around this summer so happy days.

    We'll drop 6 more points for Arselol and give Ole the job after that.

    You can put us down for goalless draws against West Ham, Burnley and Watford.

    We'll draw Watford, outright lose to Wolves, beat West Ham, draw at Goodison, draw City at home, beat Chelsea to keep us mathematically in it when all hope will be lost, only to win our remaining fixtures and come up a point short.

    Arsenal managing to turn a win yesterday into a seethe about Jesse Lingard suggests a complete collapse is imminent.

    Meanwhile, the race for the bottom:

    Newcastle: Bournemouth (a), Arsenal (a), Crystal Palace (h), Leicester (a), Southampton (h), Brighton (a), Liverpool (h), Fulham (a)
    Southampton: Watford (a) Brighton (a), Liverpool (h), Wolves (h), Newcastle (a), Bournemouth (h), West Ham (a), Huddersfield (h)
    Burnley: Leicester (h), Wolves (h), Bournemouth (a), Cardiff (h), Chelsea (a), Man City (h), Everton (a), Arsenal (h)
    Cardiff: Brighton (a), Chelsea (h), Man City (a), Burnley (a), Liverpool (h), Fulham (a), Crystal Palace (h), Man Utd (a)

    I'll not add Brighton the mix because I think Cardiff's run-in is glorious.

    It is.

    There's a fair bit of foreshortening or whatever it is called in that image though.

    Or, you know, you just make the pitch a bit smaller.

    It's not like anyone takes a corner from within the quadrant anyway.

    I'm not gonna lie I didn't give it much thought beyond "lol what the fuck why do you BUILD a stadium like this" but i guess you could just make the pitch smaller but then why do it like that to begin with idk

    i have many questions that don't necessarily need answers

    You can't make the pitch smaller. All pitches must be standard size unless the stadium was built per-standardization.

    Not gonna act like I knew that I just assumed you could from when they used to ask me in Football Manager what size I wanted the pitch for each season lmfao

    Sorry.

    Edit: Though I thought it had to be within certain dimensions I just assumed they had room to shrink lol

    There's definitely bigger and smaller pitches in the Premier League.
