    Yeah, you'd think whoever else was presenting/producing when he said that would have been on him fairly quickly to 'clarify' what he meant, so presumably those people hate him and just let his media career quietly slide down the shitter. What a div.

    Son's red card count in the past year would have gone from 3 to 0 if we had had these VAR judges at our games

    I thought this because, it being a podcast and all meant it went through an editing process but looking at how local that production is, I doubt the kid putting it together even listened while editing.

    Was it Taylor who gave a foul against Chelsea when the Spurs 'keeper karate kicked someone? Booking Willian for that was laughable. A foul as clear as day.

    This game is definitely in the so bad it's good bracket.

    I was wondering why Chelsea went and bought Ziyech the other day (thinking they had quite a few attacking midgets) but now I get it.

    I love how Pedro slows to a standstill every time he gets the ball, patiently waiting for the galloping Azpilicueta to slowly overlap for a terrible left footed cross.

    Fair play to Martial - didn't think he had that in him.

    Batshuayi is fucking tragic. Would score 40 in the Championship but just not good enough for serious football.

    Bossed it in Germany . . .

    Every time you see that Maguire one it becomes more inexplicable how he stayed on the pitch.

    Lampard being anti-Giroud is proof that he's a bad manager.

    Just checked and it seems the only trophy Lampard won after Giroud joined the league was a Europa League Trophy. Man is jealous of big Oliviers trophy cabinet.

    Fred pushes Azpilicueta as much as he then pushes Williams there. VAR's having a bit of a shocker tonight.

    That's a terrible decision. A clear push from Fred led to Azpilicueta doing that.

    I'm not watching the game but I'm glad 'physical contact in football hasn't made sense for years' viewpoint is coming to the fore.

    Two hands into Williams and a snide offside. What's the issue?

    VAR still crap but at least it was quickly crap.

    Azpilicueta only put his hands out to "stop himself falling into Williams".

    "I studs firsted him in the balls to stop him from falling over. If anything, it was for his own safety."

    I know he can't admit to it otherwise the charge is in the post but really? Do you think they have a PFA lawyer on hand for those sorts of situations?

    They let a lot of them in apparently. 1 in every 8 they face (or maybe 11), which seems mental either way.

    1 in 120 for Liverpool.

    Somehow about Liverpool...

    I haven’t been around here for a while, but I’d like to register my (rather vanilla, I suppose) view that Andreas Pereira is likely the least gifted United player I’ve seen in years.

    Was checking something and found out that United have conceded the second least goals from 'Open Play' and the (joint)third most goals from set pieces. Get Tony Pulis in and you lot are golden.

    The average is 1 in 14 so it's not that wild. They're actually the 9th worst team at conceding from set plays (I can't find specifically corners). Villa have conceded almost double.

    While looking for the stuff above I also came across a 'Goals against according to minutes' table which is quite amusing just to look at Villa. They're tight for the first fifteen minutes of games, get distracted and fall apart but regroup for injury time, and then repeat that for the second half.

    Meanwhile Wolves concede a quarter of all their goals in the first fifteen minutes and barely let one past them in the second half.

    That sort of thing adds weight to the good set-up shit players argument.

    Although United is a hard game for us because they are perfectly suited to playing against us, and although the officiating was an Ovrebo-level farce, this is the point where our shite squad is catching up with us a bit. We have done the season the wrong way round as if we'd been 8th all year and were now storming through then everyone would be really positive, even though we'll end up on the same points total we were always going to.

    4th still could be achieved because none of the others are much better and we burgled a few results early.

    This is me, I started looking up what our next 8 games were and building points tables going into the international break.

    In other circles this is what gave rise to the phenomenon sometimes referred to as 'the graph'.
