    I don’t even think Ramsdale is all that but he’s miles clear of this gimp

    Barkley has looked the best midfielder by a mile tonight which is some effort when you're sharing the field with
    Bergkamp's regen, £250m Future England Captain and some poor German donkey.

    David Raya has made a grand total of 1 save that my nan couldn't in 6 months. Get the fuck in the bin.

    Arsenal will still win but not a chance they’re winning the league. Full strength side conceding 3 to these plumbers is some effort. Tough couple of games coming up so hopefully that finishes them off.

    Might be recency bias creeping in but there seems to be a ridiculous amount of goals in the PL this season. Prime Barclays.

    Go to Spain and Italy and struggle to see more than 2 goals in games.

    Indeed there is. I keep a spreadsheet to identify games where overs/unders and BTTS are most likely.

    Unders is often League One, Italy and some Spain/France (second levels) normally.

    Overs is usually League Two (lots of games), Germany and indeed more recently, The Barclays.

    I thought it was funny on the Monday Night Club last night where they had Dan Burn talking about footballers just being footballers now, in a narrative where positions are clearly a bit passé and everyone now is firstly a 'good footballer' and secondly a whatever [midfielder, right back etc] as if, in the past, there has been some sort of hard cap on 'good footballers' and all of the other positions who aren't centre forwards or midfielders have just been filled with tall people and some mug off the street to fill in at left back.

    Have the Women GB dreams been Digrace of Gijon'd by Les Belgiques throwing a few in late against Holland? Trust the Scotch to not even be able to roll over properly.

    Ben White got a stupid shitty haircut/dye job and we lost and it was gone by the next time we played so he's a good egg.

    Kiwior left back probably a factor. Still Raya not good enough and they should have obliterated them. Taz will enjoy it, I think Odegaard was pretty weak in the middle tonight. I'm not expecting Vieira levels but he seemed notably worse than usual when it came to physical battles.

    Odegaard? Fantastic at the end yes but he was caught in posession a few times and the Barkley goal was a direct result of him getting disposessed then going down like he was crocked.

    I mean the goal was a direct result of the guy whos role is to block shots on goal jumping out of the way.

    Yes but maybe Barkley isn't stood there in space with his cock out if the albino tracks back rather than looks for a foul. The fact he never seemed to appear again on camera at the time I thought they were going to say he was injured and going off.

    Just reading the BBC puff piece of Szoboszlai and this caught my attention:

    Szoboszlai is ahead of everyone since [1980s and 1990s star] Lajos Detari
    Absolute legend on CM2.

    The Nazi really needs to stop thinking the Hairy Hungarian is dispensable. Every time he gets subbed off usually leads to a fucking tragic downturn in performance.

    I think he's suffered for being Hungary captain. Over the last international break he got zero rest and he's looked knackered since he got back.

    My man did a shot of palinka in the last international break to celebrate their qualification. Last time I did that shit I took about 6 months to fully recover. Regardless, I don't ever want to see the likes of Luis Fucking Diaz remain on a pitch ahead of him.

    Never seen a more obvious Man Utd win. Dressing room lost. Rashford being hounded out. Hojlund with no PL goal.

    Get your money on Rashford/Hojlund both scoring on the break.

    Reece James on the bench.

    Garnacho and Hojlund running down the Chelsea right side is going to be a massacre on the break. Got to be one of the slowest defences in the league that back 4.

    Yeah, I suppose if he's still not getting a sniff he's probably just there as some sort of toyboy for the favela rats but one more Kelleher performance like last game and you never know.

    You mean the guy who ran into the back of him, whilst also trying to foul his man?

    Bit of a slippery slope if defenders are allowed to run full tilt into the backs of attacking players and claim a foul.

    lol at Van Dijk now VAR symboling though.
