United are back
Can't wait until City get relegated and we get those points back. We'll be back up in the top eight in no time
Lol well done
Utd really do stink of utter shit all over
First half of napoli vs juve has been great. End to end stuff. Napoli lead 1-0. Juve should have scored 3.
Pedri injured again
Playing 78 games as an 18 year old in 2021 probably wasn’t smart
Bit late to the party here, but he is right - Law 8 details why it was different earlier in the game.

"The ball is dropped for the defending team goalkeeper in their penalty area if, when play was stopped:
- the ball was in the penalty area or
- the last touch of the ball was in the penalty area"
Hence why Sels received the drop ball, and why Kelleher shouldn't have.
A propos of nothing, as Chelsea posted his birthday on twitter I went to re-read the career of Paul Canoville, a notable figure in the club's history for having been our first black player in the 80s and received racist abuse. It's also well known that he had various drug addictions and health problems after retirement, though these days appears to be on the straight and narrow. However this aspect of his life I was reading for the first time and almost couldn't believe it:
'A self-confessed womaniser' yeah just a bit.A self-confessed womaniser, he has fathered eleven children through ten different women. His children are: Natalie (born 1979 to Christine), Derry (born May 1982 to Maureen), Dwayne, Lorreen (born April 1985 to Marsha), Germelle (born April 1985 to Valerie Cyrus), Jahmal (born January 1991), Pierre (born 26 December 1986 to Maria), Udine (born January 1988 to Joyce), Nickel (born 23 February 1988 to Suzy), Paris (born 13 September 1992 to Tracey), Tye Paul (born 20 December 1995, also to Tracey), and Caysey (born 3 November 1995 to Sonia). He met most of the women through the London rave and acid house party scene. Tye, died in infancy in 1995 from a heart defect.
Man did it right. Would you really want to settle down and be with the same one person forever if you had more disposable income than you knew what to do with?
I'm a twit
This was the 80s, they weren't paid much and he spent it all on crack anyway.

What a fanny. That is peak football.
Paul Tierney has made a bad decision resulting in giving Liverpool a goal so he's been punished by *checks notes* doing VAR for Arsenal v Brentford...
I don’t get this drop ball controversy. Konate got booted in the head.
I'm a twit
Forest had the ball when he whistled it dead. THE RULES say they should be given the ball back in an uncontested drop ball. He didn't do that and gave it Kelleher.
Imagine even being the slightest bit interested in refereeing discourse. Anyone who so much as knows a referee by name is a proper nonce.
really it should have been a free kick for the foul on Konate though?
I'm a twit
Fans of club think one thing and others think the opposite. Shocking. Has anyone ever changed anyone's mind?
The fury over it seems to be that of bias towards us, when in reality he's just a shite referee.
This arrogance is tempting fate but Sky Sports going 'John Fleck is being honored hear tonight, hopefully that's the inspiration Sheffield need'. is proper desperation.
You could put your reserves out and still beat this shite 4-0.
They have no place in this league.
I think the fury is that it's less bias towards Liverpool but instead that Klopp singled him out for slagging off multiple times and then getting a decision when you need it.
At home we did exactly that and scored 5. If we don't win it's unalive time.
Sadly for the MIGHTY BLADES, you need either a team of tough physical types, or to go the other way and have a great tactical idea(like the wide CBs that worked great for them a few years back) to stay up. Their team just falls into that no mans land in the middle where it's all just average.
Wait... this keeper they've put in. His name surely isn't pronounced Garbage?
This Sheff Utd team would be mid table in the Championship. They’ve regressed so much in 12 months. Arsenal ought to hit double figures here.
Sheffield United are so bad that Arsenal should be 2-0 up in 4 minutes.
How do this Sheffield United team have more points than that Derby team? They are garbage.
This is genuinely disgraceful.
We said these three teams came for the parachute payments and nothing more. If you're not putting your club's financial future in jeopardy by signing 20 BLMs, get the fuck out of my sight, you utter gammons.
Don’t think I’ve ever seen a tactical sub that early.
Luton are at least giving a shit.
These Arsenal corner routines are getting fucking ridiculous.
Looks like city won’t win if it comes down to GD this time around. Actually quite important if Arsenal press on and try get another 4 or 5
Does seem strange that this is what qualifies as 'getting a decision'.
Is that photo of Konate being booted in the head photoshopped or something? Or AI generated, as I believe is the parlance of the time. I thought he just got bumped by Kelleher.
Sheffield United and Burnley proving there needs to be an ID/guestlist style policy of some sort before being admitted into the Premier League Club.
Arsenal have been on fire this year though, shame they're not the ones playing City next week. Something will have gone wrong by the end of the month.
Still managed to embarrass themselves in Europe during this period. Arsenal Football Club.
I think Arsenals GD has gone up about +30 in the past 3/4 weeks alone. Since that winter break they've scored bucket loads.
This made me check the GD and Man Utd, Jesus Christ...
We've scored 9 less goals in our last 6 games than United have this season.
We looked dead before that Dubai trip, I can't rule out Arteta using his Pep connections to get the boys on a full HGH cycle.
As has been stated he’s just a dogshit referee. But, if that decision wins us the league then it will ‘even itself out’ with the one from Spurs a couple of seasons ago when he should have sent Kane off but didn’t and then sent Robertson off for basically the same tackle.
He’s got his fair share of things wrong in our games but I genuinely don’t think it’s any worse one way or the other he’s just a diabolically bad referee.
Arsenal's best chance of winning the league is hanging in there whilst everyone focuses on City and Liverpool and they can carry on somewhat under the radar, so they probably need a Liverpool win next week otherwise they'll become the headline act and it will all go to bits.
I suspect one will fall away(likely the loser of next weeks game).
The big test for Arsenal is the City away game. Even top Liverpool could very rarely go there and get any kind of result. Had they been able to do so Klopps league tally would be 3+. I fully expect a City win in both games mind you.
City barely win at Anfield though. They’ll need to give up this stupid John Stones role if they want to not get molested on the break
If we were at anything close to full strength I’d fancy us. But realistically the bench is going to be very thin and that will make the difference.
Guardiola always does himself over away to us by trying to be a smartass. He always tries a thing he's not done before to try and catch us out and it just doesn't work.
We're not fucking taking Arsenal for serious, are we?
The De Zerbi to Chelsea links are so funny. They must have paid Brighton Neymar amounts of transfer fees by now.
We're not fucking taking Arsenal for serious, are we?
So, believe it or not.... FIFA actually had a good idea. The FIFA Series 2024 pits smaller nations from each confederation against each other, allowing teams who never get to play against other the opportunity to do so. It is proper random, but actually really cool.
Obviously, FIFA then ruined it by hosting 2 groups in Saudi Arabia... which will ensure attendances in the lower hundreds. And, because it's FIFA each team only plays 2 other teams, not 3.
The Groups:
