    I think I've still got a few in hand on him when it comes to that sort of thing.

    The initial pass by Aboubakar was far too late.

    VAR also took far too long to deal with it.

    I thought he was onside on the pass but Aboubakar was offside when the guy took the shot, which I think is why it took VAR centuries but they eventually got it right, as did the linesman.

    I'm just tuning in. What were the penalty decisions like? I see they were awarded to the host nation after they went a goal down.

    Both absolute 10/10 stone wallers, but it's definitely something to look out for. There will be a lot of VAR penalties in this event.

    That's 3-1 if Aboubakar passes there.

    All the second stringers looked absolutely terrible, the first team stars not much better. The silver lining is surely we will sign some midfielders ASAP.

    Roy Keane's punditry is so lol. 'They didn't turn up here and say: we're Arsenal Football Club'. No wonder that lot all failed as managers.

    This game is much like Turkmenistan v India would be at a similar stage, the difference between the two is about 4 nations can win the Asian Cup whereas about 12 can win this.

    Asian Cup - 17 Tournaments, 9 unique winners.
    BLM Justice Cup - 32 Tournaments, 14 unique winners.

    Stick to wanking over the goalkeepers' kits.

    The standards in ‘better or on par with you’ compare despite them winning absolutely nothing and Arsenal winning 2 Cups kind of proves my point. Clubs at its lowest ebb since the 1980s and still more successful.

    Doing some pretty creative accounting there to count Israel and lean on randomers winning it 40 years ago. Last 6 Afcons, 6 different winners, 10 finalists.

    I just find it fascinating how riled up you get about me putting a couple of posts in indicating my enjoyment of a particular game. Proper tears rolling down cheeks stuff.

    If anything it seemed like the opposite. Killed any momentum we might have had. Like when teams play kids in a cup match and then lose a bunch of the spin.

    3 of the last 4 AC winners (including the last 2) were first-time winners. Not a single one in the last 4 AFCONs. Telling.

    I was watching the game and posting about it as well. I tickle some balls and next thing I know you're blasting out full racism so potent it had Giggles PM-ing Phonics.

    The Pongo (now in an old people's home retweeting SNP propaganda between injections) used to give me the same stuff when I posted about Afcons getting on for 15 years ago, there's obviously something about me enjoying it that people find frustrating.

    Once again, what do you think was our thinking? That we might be able to delay it enough to have Salah, Mane and Keita back for the 2nd leg? That Nat Phillips and Harvey Elliot might be back? That we'd be well rested for Shrewsbury and instead be in worse shape for Palace away?

    Covid has conveniently ceased to be an issue during FA Cup weekend. And we have Wigan's owner claiming we should extend the season to allow them to catch up.

    James Milner is somehow not in his 60's. I've just had to accept that I don't understand time.

    I played cricket against Milner when we were 16 so I've always been right with his age, but I thought Grabban was getting on when he played for us in the Championship which must be four years ago now.

    The "he doesn't look anything like you" line (said to Ian) got a lol.

    I don't think he was joking either.
