    i guess the rumours of being distracted by off the field stuff were true, it's hard to be a top class premier league player while also writing a sitcom

    Ally McCoist and Glenn Hoddle co-comms on the two games tonight, the two best in the business. Both just ooze love for football from every pore.

    A lot of it sounds like seethe resulting from the (entirely fairly awarded) Arsenal goal.

    100% serious. He keeps on putting a fake Irish accent on too. It’s a bit racist if you ask me.

    There is a singing section in the Stretford end which is probably where the mike is picking up the sound.

    If Tavares lets that drop to Martinelli it’s 3-2.

    In other news, Lazio were losing 3-1 at home against Udinese at half time, made it 4-3 and conceded an equaliser in the 99th minute, in a game with three red cards.

    He looks offside but he should still be burying that.

    Every time I see Jessie Lingard his facial features have shrunk by a further 5% and retreated closer to the centre of his face.

    Saka has no goalscoring instinct whatsoever. Two clear chances gone begging because he’s mooching around waiting for the ball to come out to him.

    The Amazon coverage is pretty fucking great, apart from the delay. All football should be broadcast on staggered 45 minute interval kick offs.

    It's weird as a United fan having someone in charge who sounds like they have a plan and know what they are talking about.

    I'm not sure anyone was claiming it was a "scoop", but given it would be a change of the initial plan I think it would qualify as news.

    I love the idea of a manager sitting in a press conference saying something out loud, and the reddit weasels spending the next five hours exchanging coded messages about which tier of journalist have reported and whether it's true, having not actually listened themselves.

    Manchester United's managerial hiring policy suggests that isn't necessarily an important factor.

    Just noticed that there are three 2pm kick offs in the Premier League on Sunday and none are televised. That's going to be a shitstorm.

    Gateshead look an alright side to watch. Play fairly nice while whilst having potential bomb scares by playing it back to the keeper a lot. Adam Campbell looks a haunted man. Charlton should win this but there's chances in it for us. We've not really got a hold of Jaiyesimi.

    Jorginho has done well in the last week for two of the conceded goals

    No idea why Mendy doesn’t just kick the ball after his initial touch though.

    He has been a seething mess in this game ever since he didn't get that foul and got done for handball picking it up afterwards. Mendy needs to be told not to fucking take a touch ever again. He's not 'good with his feet', he's a fucking goalkeeper. All goalkeepers are worse with their feet than all outfield players.
