    I have you right with Messi anyway. Physically he's nothing special.

    Spurs should sack Mourinho and get him in. Let's see who's the biggest myth once and for all.

    Yeah, I mean he was 'the next big thing' before he left Portugal wasn't he? He may have been a whiney little batch (a trait he has not outgrown) but he's one of very few to have achieved what was expected of him.

    As soon as I had context I remembered but just referencing it like that I had no clue. That was back in the Chel$ki/Man Yoo days.

    They've just had a full match replay of the original Liverpool 4-3 Newcastle match on sky sports something, holy fuck what a game that was. Shame it gave rise to the evil empire. Tragedy Newcastle never won the league that year.

    In my mind I always had it earlier in the year than April, but there were still a fair few games to go.

    Liverpool followed it up by losing 1-0 to Coventry. Oh, those were the days.

    Probably got turned over by Wimbledon as the season wound down as well, no doubt.

    From what I remember, I felt it went when Graham Fenton turned us over. And when Ian Woan levelled against us.

    That 97/98 season was magic for that reason. I think we were something like 12 points behind with single digit amount of games left. I tried to confirm it on wiki and couldn't find it but I did find that the bookies paid out on United winning the league that year two months early

    Looks like 11 points at the beginning of March. United had 9 to play. Arsenal 12

    This must be where I picked up the habit of assuming any game in hand = 3 points.

    Michail Antonio is such an enigma of a player. He’s awful but his physical attributes make seasoned players look like under 23’s. People bang on about Traore but Antonio’s the real one.

    Yep, if it wasn't for injuries he'd be a seasoned international and how I'd love to see him absolutely fuck up soft foreign cunts on the international stage.

    Amazon have the option to remove the fake crowd noise (maybe Sky do too, I don’t have it) and it makes it completely unwatchable.

    People keep saying he’s ‘adaptable’ because he can play right back or striker, he plays exactly the same way in both positions.

    Curtis Jones and Neco Williams starting.

    Seems to fancy Jones as one of his midfield 3 rather than a 10, so this is a good experiment.

    I did toy with the idea of captaincy and probably should have gone with it given I have 160 points to make on the jammy cunt above me but I expect similiar output from Salah now.

    Imagine having to track Andy Robertson all game.

    Pope needs to take over from little arms immediately.

    Nah, Pickford's better at playing his defence into trouble.

    This game has a very end of term feel to it.

    On another day could have been 5-1. The one Salah chance he should be burying is the one that comes right at the end. A shame but nothing to lose sleep over.

    He’s managed to make a save at least but it still led to a goal. He’ll be playing for Mallorca in a few years.

    Werner will run riot in the Europa
