    I'm completely wrong in fairness. I was thinking of the bloke from West Ham. Diangana.

    Properly shit performance. Martial is a waste of time, Rashford is playing like Trashford.

    Wolves turn it up in the second half. Neto and his left foot slide was a great goal. I suspect Liverpool will be watching him as it's their style to take the best players from the mid-table teams.

    Just clocked that we go above the poverty fortress into 4th with a point vs whoever we are playing tomorrow. The league should give up.

    I couldn’t see that happening. For all their madness they’re the most loyal supporters you’d find anywhere.

    Italy's top 6 hasn't looked like that for a very long time. Hopefully it goes the distance. Milan and Juve both losing this weekend as well

    Edit: Top 7. Atalanta have snuck back in.

    I looked it up expecting something class like Chievo and Sampdoria in the top 3 and was left disappointed.

    Watching this slow passing around the back with no crowd shit is so demoralising. Just can't bring myself to care about any of the wins while still getting annoyed at the losses.

    This is how this team is, if the other team scores first we're fucked but otherwise we're a problem.

    Saka is ridiculous. Someones going to absolutely blow through his ankles at some point and they should face prison time when they do.

    I thought during our 1-0 against Arsenal we were squeezing out one last win against a side close to pulling it together for a while. They're not perfect, but basically looked a starting Odegaard and Aubameyang short of being a decent side. Don't think we'd win if that game was played tomorrow.

    Funnily enough, Sergio Conceiçăo, now manager of Porto, chucked on his son in the 77th minute of their game yesterday at 2-1 down.

    They made it 2-2, the son then won a penalty that was missed in the 86th min and then assisted a goal in injury time that was disallowed due to the most bollocks of handballs.



    You's almost feel bad if the father wasn't one of the most gigantic cunts in the sport.

    They're not bad but as a collective but they're just not individually talented enough to drag 3 points out of a match that's not going their way/they don't deserve. Then you lose a few matches that could go either way and that's the difference between 4th and 10th.

    That's a ridiculous assist from Smith-Rowe. Not having that as a miskick.

    There can't be many footballer's in the business at the moment who are more integral to their team's overall performance than Kalvin Phillips is at Leeds. We're absolutely fucking useless without him. Nobody else in the squad can even come close to filling the role. God forbid he ever leaves.

    Don't be ridiculous Jim. We have plenty of defenders in the youth team who we can promote and play there out of position instead.

    I'm just basing it off his consistent touchline behaviour. He must have the highest number of yellow and red cards for any manager. I'd probably love him if he was my manager, had a nice run-in with City/Guardiola/Bernardo Silva earlier in season too.

    Souness saying 'leeds are unlucky because the big decisions went against them' is an absolutely mental takeaway from the game.

    It's so annoying that we're close enough to 4th that I want Arsenal to win but we're far enough off it that I wouldn't mind us not trying and finishing outside the Europa places.

    The oddest "He's how old?" in football I've stumbled across for a while: Jean Michael Seri, once hyped as the heir to Xavi, is 29 years old. He went to Fulham when he was 27. I wonder why he was talked up so much when 25/26? Seems a bit like saying Solly March is going to be the next Ryan Giggs.

    If he really was Xavi then he could plausibly peak between 27 and 33 or so.

    Alas he was in fact Jean Michael Seri.

    From what I've seen of Klopp over the years I reckon asking him if he wants time off would offend him, though he does need it.

    I don't care who you are, knowing your mum is dying back home and being told you can't see her before she dies, or go an attend her funeral afterwards, would fuck you up.

    If the FA can’t even consistently spell offside, they probably can’t be consistent with the rules either.

    Board decision init. To be fair, Mendy was at fault last week and Kepa has been alright in the cup. Reece James should be starting every game - if he’s sticking with the five at the back then he should be playing right sided centre half as he’s an upgrade on Azpilicueta in every department. Would actually suit him pretty well since he’d be able to play through the midfield like he did for Wigan a lot.

    Presumably it was a board decision to panic buy Mendy a few months ago as well?

    They're both average.

    Just seen our line-up. Bruce bloody loves to revert to type against the big clubs. Carroll should've started this.



    Man, I'd love to see a full 90 played in that.

    I thought Tuchel was some sort of attacking wizard of a coach. A skinnier Sarri on this evidence.
