    Feb football: The window wheezes shut

    I suppose it's fitting that a season like this has a transfer window like that, really. I didn't have Sky Sports on yesterday but I assume even Jim White was struggling to get a hard-on over Liverpool browsing the lower leagues for defenders. And I could have lived without learning that Ian Wright, a player of my youth, has a grandson old enough to play professional football.

    I did chuckle at this though: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/55905232

    Anyway, you know the drill. It is a new month and an assortment of football will be played across various tournaments. I suppose the return of European football may be exciting, if that's your sort of thing? United will just be getting lolled out by Real Sociedad / lolling past Real Sociedad with a crap performance and questionable penalty (delete as applicable) anyway so I can't pretend I'm especially looking forward to that.

    New thread and me slagging off Partey will never be found again.

    Saka just hit the post after a beautiful through ball from Partey after less than a minute.

    AVB's career is worth one of those 'banter era' threads you see on twitter. On that note, here's an excellent one about York City:

    Not scoring in that first 20 has me putting money on a Wolves 1-0 win.

    I almost want to root for Sheffield Utd but West Brom will probably grind out a useless draw.

    The Arsenal set-piece coach is having a laugh. We were really good at corners a couple years ago and the teams pretty much the same.

    Looking at the table, York have five games in hand. That's going be a mad fixture jam.

    I'm not sure how that's a penalty? And how do we get a red card for it as well?

    Got to feel this would be the bell well and truly tolling for Sheffield Utd if they don't turn this one around.

    Also they probably need to brush up the no red card/penalty rule to cover situations where the foul/contact is clearly not an intentional super foul (where the double punishment should be applied).

    Why didn't Edwards do the right thing and give Sheff Utd £5m and the carcass of Joe Gomez for Chris Basham. Fucking immense footballer. Sheff Utd winner incoming and it's going to be so sweet against that Brexit cunt.

    Sharp just as he was about to be taken off. THEY'RE FUCKING DOING THIS.

    Man Utd without Pogba would a be given loss here if Southampton weren't playing regens.

    Thats a belting read. Also reminded me of Adriano Moke. I went to high school with him. I remembered seeing his name at the Glenn Hoddle academy thing they did.

    The answer to that is Koscielny.

    Thinking about it, the bottom two are going to have to take 24 points from their remaining games to be in with a sniff of staying up, which means winning half of them, which probably isn't going to happen.

    Fulham a few defeats in games in hand away from being in the same position.

    The ultimate insult, when you're under the cosh enough that Ole makes multiple substitutions before the 92nd minute.

    To be fair given his usual levels of effort Martial may have actually just fallen asleep there having tried to break into a run.
