    He'd obviously massively improve anyone he joined, but I'm not sure anyone has the gold to fuel the train, as you put it, least of all Liverpool and their transfer committee moneyball wankery.

    I don't really see how anyone is going to pay Ł150m(?) when Mbappe's kicking around on a 1 year contract and Haaland will be available for (relative) peanuts next summer.

    Just seen that we've been absolute dogshit all year and could technically be within 2-3 points of Liverpool, Chelsea and Leciester by the end of the season.

    I bet there aren't many players who could have scored that. What a player.

    I don't think Bruno Fernandes touched that. He obviously gets so many goal contributions that they assumed he did, like when divers don't get definite penalties because of their reputations.

    Not that it matters, we're down, we're shit and we will lose this regardless, but how the fuck does VAR miss that? Cavani is about 2-3 yards offside.

    Actually looking forward to next season where games can simply be ruined by shit refereeing, not shit refereeing followed up by inadequate VAR reviewing it.

    I would have left ages ago. The stewards will be on a right power trip not letting people out all at once.

    Probably should have won it. Fans were deathly silent, like they were bored to be there. Weird game.

    Ridiculous season - won away at Liverpool, Everton and Leicester, drew away with Spurs, Arsenal and United, and yet we are 10 points adrift and relegated with 3 games to go.

    Home and away is meaningless in the no-fan zeitgeist.

    It's really hard to get your head around that though, having spent however many years looking at tricky away fixtures etc.

    True, but I'd have been shocked if we'd managed those results against those teams at home. Just a weird season where we performed fairly well as underdogs, and generally shit the bed when faced with teams in the lower half.

    How’s Mike Dean given a free kick rather than a penalty there?

    Yep, the amount of false joy across these last two games for Chelsea.

    This has been really enjoyable - fans make all the fucking difference don’t they?

    Jorginho being Chelsea's top scorer in the Premiership with 7, all penalties, is criminal.

    City don't need to be after Kane. They need some no nonsense defenders to sort out Brighton running riot on them.

    Sir Alex Ferguson sounds as Scottish as he did in the nineties in this Gary Neville interview. He doesn't live there, so his brain must be damaged.

    Werner will probably score about 30 goals next season. The nicest, slightly retarded, footballer you’ll ever see

    Dias' propensity to go to ground in search of the block was fully shown up by Trossard there. The VVD (RIP) comparisons aren't going to age well when he's loaned out to Sean Dyche's Spurs.

    I've just seen the excellent statistic that Jorginho is Chelsea's top league scorer and that all 7 are penalties.

    Just watch every pass closely and then note the difference in its pace and how it automatically initiates progressive movement from its recipient compared to Gini's turgid rolls behind every target or any mere mortal frankly.
