    This is the first time I've seen Mainoo interviewed, you can tell he's the real thing. How long will it take Gareth to adapt, three years?

    How come I can't find an official (Sky, whoever else) highlights package of today's Scottish match on YouTube half a day after the event? Even Super League gets highlights out within hours now, but these plebs can't seem to manage it.

    Chelsea’s defending and goalkeeping is something else. Have they had a clean sheet in 2024?

    Bloody hell, Pochettino is absolutely clueless. That’ll be him done in football once he’s eventually sacked in the summer

    That bloke Romero must be the most overrated player in the history of football. If he wasn't an Argie and have the hard men defending aura around him, he'd be playing for Runcorn. Just completely rash in everything he does and costs them dearly time after time after time.

    I see Chris Wood has scored again, while Darwin continues to miss sitters.

    Chelsea could be 6th in a game or two. Not bad considering waff thinks Poch is a bin man.

    The league is utter shite. West Ham and Man Utd fans have been calling for their manager to be sacked all year and they’ve been in 6th and 7th all year round

    Yep. Considering the amount of money in the league it’s the absolute pits. It seems every team sets up to play to THE DATA but it appears that data is gleaned from the top 2-3 teams so when you have inferior footballers trying the same shit they’re just sabotaging themselves at every turn.

    Dropping points to two of the worst sides in recent memory in back to back weekends. Doing a good job though is old Pochettino.

    Not even an attacker on the pitch

    I spent months last year telling you they should have stuck with Potter, yet you wanted him out with the relentless aggression of a data-driven press. It's your fault.

    VAR checked Bruno Guimaeres decking Jorghinho in the back of the head off the ball and said it was fine so feigning injury is fair play too.

    A manager who can set a team up to create more than 0.5XG against a defence who have conceded 80+ goals for starters

    He’s brilliant. Finish gave me flashbacks to Federico Macheda making me cry as a 12 year old.

    United home and away, Arsenal at home, City home all games we should be winning with better finishing. Moop.

    4.4 plays 0.8 on xG. Christ knows what the stats on the other games have been but to not beat United once in three attempts given how the games have gone is a bit mind (or league) bottling.

    Should still be fine unless City win out.

    On the league is shite front, I don't think that's the case, it's just that the league has, broadly, adopted modern pepball football which makes most non-exceptional teams look hopeless much of the time. Not many decent low blocks out there anymore, which suits Arsenal's defensively solid and wait for the other team to make a mistake approach.

    I think Peps first two title winning teams would steamroll the three teams at the top of the table this year. All of them have flaws it’s just who has the least.

    Mainoo reminds me of Jack Wilshere when he first turned up the more i see him play. Will he stay away from the nose sugar or whatever the the youth use these days to get their groove on.

    It's cocaine more than ever, insane how much they do now and how rife it is. I know a few younger lads who do it and they happily admit they pull birds and then have the old drug droop so nothing happens, just blows my mind: why waste all the effort trying to pull if you know you're not going to be able to do the deed anyway?

    I blame TikTok.

    Three to five times the price of ket in the north west, generally. Although I suppose it doesn’t make you piss blood, so worth the extra.

    You have to be a very committed space cadet to end up doing yourself any harm from ket, whereas coke can make your heart stop beating.

    Very peculiar, this stability, in a free market with no regulation and far higher associated risks. If only the corporate world had the same level of integrity and honesty as Pablo and Co.

    The inflation has come that the stuff now is absolutely stepped on and cut with a load more shit. Purity has dropped massively. Guess you could call it shrinkflation.

    No, I'm pretty sure purity has actually improved over recent years. These mans know they operate a crucial service for their fellow peers, give them suits and a seat at the roundtable though and watch their humanity dissipate like the rest of them.

    Aye, it's a right mush. If Everton had their points back they'd only get to 14th.

    Everton were doing reasonably well before the first points deduction, so they could easily seethe the next thirty years away blaming it for wrecking their form if this second round does it.

    I mean, they've at least got another year of point deductions given how their financials are fucked.
