Pussyhole higuain isnt part of the penalty five.
Remember about 2 years ago when England didn't get any teams past the quarters and it was pronounced that English football was dead?
So
Chelsea always have their defenders taking penalties in shoot outs. Pedro would have missed, but what’s Higuain’s excuse
Chelsea v Arsenal in Baku, an Arsenal fan I know was looking at travel options including a flight to Tbilisi and a 13 hour train from there, or a flight to Turkmenistan and a 17 hour ferry back across the Caspian Sea.
Please no. I've always been one of those 'you can't remove politics from sport' people but I think Theresa May invoking Liverpools 'togetherness and fight back in Europe' followed up by people with #FBPE in their display name tweeting "JURGEN KLOPP IS AN IMMIGRANT" changed my mind.
Shame all that time learning how it works won't matter anymore.

Officials from the domestic leagues were shown the proposal for restructured European competitions this week. The new tournaments would, starting in 2024, allow the top 21 teams in a 32-team Champions League to qualify automatically for the next season’s event, effectively guaranteeing them annual participation and tens of millions of dollars more in broadcasting revenue than their domestic rivals. Those rivals would most likely be unable to match the rich clubs’ spending power, and would find it prohibitively difficult to play their way into the Champions League on the field.
Liverpool got us chucked out of Europe indefinitely, so they're better than Theresa May.
Lol 3rd and Europa Cup winners. Sarri.
Arsenal will win unless Hazard plans on going out in style. He’s been a bit shit recently.

Is that an official gooner press release? It's almost like they want to keep numbers down.
Yeah it's from the supporters liason team.
I had no idea that Markle was mixed race.
News to me too.
I also didn't know until I heard Danny Baker had been sacked.
This clip doing the rounds of Geoff Boycott slating Man Utd and the management live on MUTV, as the corporate fluff presenter shits his pants, is quality. Do they not know who he is?
Is he a United fan??
Also that story put me onto this:

Sanchez's paycut.
That makes the downturn in form even more bizarre.
Speaking of Azerbaijan, I saw the Euro 2020 calendar today, and which absolute idiot gave that the go-ahead?
Looks like Mkhitaryan won't be going due to them being at war with Armenia or whatever. Just an excellent choice of venue.
These shouldn't be picked til the finals are set.
UEFA are saying the reason that the clubs got so few tickets is because Baku airport couldn't handle more tourists than that. And it's been confirmed that UEFA can't ensure our 200 grand a week midfielder won't be arrested upon arriving in the country.
Excellent choice for a final, presumably they expected an Azerbaijani team to make it to the final to lighten the travel load.
As soon as I think I've mastered the requisite amount of cognitive dissonance to enjoy football within the corrupt world of the Premier League, UEFA and FIFA, something else comes along to annoy me again. I almost want it to go full EUROPEAN SUPER LEAGUE just so I can finally sack it off, and get well into Belgian arthouse cinema or postmodern literature or something.
United apparently signing Daniel James from Swansea. Any Swansea fans, he any good?
It's a sop to the fans - YOUTH, PACE, WINGERS - before wasting loads of money on better-known whoppers.
