    McGoldrick scored? Is it a cup game or something?

    Either a couple of 25+ yard screamers or he got lost and ended up in the box.

    Good to see one of our strikers doing something though. Long/Obafemi/Parrott/etc are all muck and can’t get a game.

    Could United and Leicester potentially fix a draw on the last day of the season to clinch third and fourth?

    Even with everything else, West Ham being safe is the saddest development this season.

    If Chelsea win their last 3 I think they’ll get top four regardless of the result but they’ll not win at Anfield so they’re fucked.

    When's the last time a proper English shithouse club did well in Europe? I always get giddy at the thought of Bolton and co. making their way there but they never tend to stick around. There has to have been one since Boro and Fulham.

    There are no qualifiers for English teams, they got rid of that a few years ago now. All straight into the groups.

    Well, then. I guess the fix is in. @Giggles I don't really count Leicester a proper shithouse club, though. Like, they're legitimately ran like a team with skilful players. Same could be said for Wolves.

    Yeah, and Wolves or United could qualify by winning the UEFA Cup as well.

    Atalanta have taken a 1-0 lead vs Juventus in Turin. They will be 6 points behind Juve with 6 games left if stays like this.

    This should be stopped on humane grounds. In this era of no fans, the two managers should be able to agree to finish up early.

    Those Juventus penalties are ridiculous.

    Not surprising in the slightest of course.

    I mean I get why he was sacked but at this stage I can't see how there's an objective argument to thinking he'd be doing a worse job than the incumbent.

    The boys in the studio made a great point, Frank saw that he got it wrong at HT at 2-0 down and made the double change and changed up the system.

    65 minute BBC produced look back at the life and times of Alan Hansen with Ludovico Einaudi backing track to give it that emotional depth. I wonder if I'll be as fucking done with life to tune in for "Mo Salah: Egyptian King" in 2055.

    That first Juventus penalty is a joke. The rules don't say you have to put your arms behind your back, and de Roon keeps them in a very natural position. Very harsh.

    Some effort by Villa to get out of this but lookin at Watford's fixtures, it's a possibility. Least get it to final day cause I'm fast losing interest.

    Post lockdown yeah. Arteta has an obsession with having a left footed CB so when Marri got injured in the Man City match swapped it to have Kola as a CB.

    As I say, it's literally to have a left footed CB.

    Bellerin absolutely rinsed two Spurs players there. Looks like hes finally starting to recover from the ACL.

    Not if that CB is Sead Kolasinac.

    Lacazette has added so much power to his shot over the break. Seen a few of these in the training videos.

    What is the point of Nicolas Pepe. Yeah, Arjen Robben made an entire career of cutting in and shooting but Pepe doesn't ever get the ball into that position.
