    That might be the shittest line a commentator has ever said.
    Matterface's "SCENES! ABSOLUTE SCENES!" remains the worst thing any commentator has ever done.

    Jesus, just seen the Euro draw. The only saving grace is that we haven't played Serbia in forever (at least as far as I can remember) and playing them first up in Gelsenkirchen has a real 'Battle of...' feel to it.

    Group B is quite good.

    Garnacho is a good little player but is a right cheating cunt. Always rolling around feigning injuries.

    'Fletch' is such a bad commentator, and I don't mean he annoys me or I don't like him, he's technically bad. Waffling on about irrelevant shite at the wrong times and just not eloquent enough for the job.

    On a positive note, if one of Miley and Mainoo can develop into a scurrier / get the work done then that's England's midfield behind Bellingham sorted for the next 15 years. The former in particular seems to have an amazing instinct for a percentage ball, which is how the game is now played.

    Yep. Their whole entire line up is beyond dog shit. The majority of them struggle to string a sentence together

    Miley looks an incredible talent, especially with that physique.

    Another humiliation on xG and Alisson is gonna be fit for the Anfield visit

    This should be about 5-0, a completely one-sided thrashing. The only question is whether United will burgle 1 or 3 points in stoppage time.

    Rashford's hour here should probably see him training with the reserves until March. Not interested whatsoever in the team. Not sure if he doesn't fancy it because it's cold or what, but you could watch the apathy dripping off him.

    I had never heard of Sofyan Amrabat before the World Cup, and had United not signed him I don't think I ever would have again.

    Egghead is a fucking travesty and United need to rid themselves of him before they end up with more Ajax outcasts like Chuba Akpom.

    He just completely forgot that Nick Pope was subbed off.

    No urgency or pressing of any kind until about the 3rd minute of added time.
    No real identity or sense of a plan beyond grinding games out either.

    Which is forgiveable on its own, but the reason he did so was because he had pre-written a stat about Newcastle's lack of substitutions recently and just HAD to read it out when there was a sub. A proper commentator wouldn't have got themselves into that position.

    EtH really is awful but also probably as good as they'll get at the moment. It's hard to not feel sorry for Man United fans at this point.

    In fairness to Sir Twat Busby I'm not sure there are many coaches who could make the bunch of overpaid whining tossers who make up the Man U squad into an exciting team. They need to completely tear it down and start again, but under the glazers just haven't been willing to do so. Maybe Bradley Wiggins or whoever is now in charge will get it done.

    Rashford and Martial are absolute jokes. Starting with both and Fernandes is basically like having 8.5 defensively. Easy for Newcastle (who weren't even particularly good).

    Thus Chelsea/Brighton game really should have a ridiculous amount of goals. Both teams don’t have any fit full backs (or available to play) outside of Joel Veltman who might have to play centre half

    Stoke away for Brighton and the 6th Premier League opponent in 7 years for Liverpool.

    Absolute write-off of an FA Cup draw.

    Unlike most seasons I can see Chelsea's massive bloated squad coming into its own at this time of year, especially as most squads seem to be collapsing completely.
