    and apart from the goal the Blades shape and organisation has been good
    Igniting the imaginations in a thousand back gardens all across the land.

    There really are some absolutely brutal teams in the league this year.

    Everton might be wise to try and take that point deduction asap.

Sure, the extra games will have an effect overall on their season, but I feel they've been exactly how they were in the second half of last season so far.
    I didn't realise they were that long ago. I feel like they're still good enough for 5th. The big push for the teams in Europe is from now til new year. If they can cope with that they'll be grand.

    He scored from his own half. He's having a right laugh over there.

    Possibly, and the teams that went down last year were very good as well. Leicester are miles better than Burnley.

    And playing for a good team.

    gif probably doesn't do the shot justice, but that looks like a poor effort by the 'keeper.

    Spending about 5 mins trying to judge whether an offside call is offside or not even after they've drawn the lines on it in Bournemouth. I'd suspect both these managers' jobs might rest on this and crowd has lost all interest. Gotta love how the technology is simply not there for this.

    Disallowed. Iraola lives.

    Bellingham with another tap-in. Are they just not familiar with midfield runners or something in Spain? This is ridiculous.

    The spic commentator having a pop at Vini Jr for daring to applaud as he walked off. Racist cunts. He also spent the entire first half describing how Gavi had Bellingham in his pocket

    A better angle of the Kane lob...



    And Bellingham's first

    I assumed the goalie must have given the ball away 'playing out from the back' to have been in such a dreadful position, but no.

    That’s gotta be at least the 5th stoppage time winner for Bellingham this season

    The English Dom Szoboszlai is coming along nicely.

    Rob Elliot's still waiting for his first win as Gateshead boss. Thumped 4-0 by Fylde. Meanwhile Mike Williamson keeps his 100% league record going with MK Dons. If we were still under Mike Ashley's iron grip, he'd be our next binman.

    Yep. He stops himself and kicks the floor. They clearly knew it wasn’t a penalty either with how long they were looking at it.

    It's just another example of the Harry Kane / Anthony Gordon throw yourself into contact special. Hwang [was it?] fully stopped himself and Schar was two feet planted and going down 'anticipating contact' before there was any fleeting touch.

    She did say it wasn’t a penalty but Shay Given’s reasoning made me vomit in my mouth.

    Our best hope would be if those two above start unexpectedly turning out at centre half for their clubs.

    In terms of the Euros it's genuinely really only France that should be beating us now and even then only if they play well (they didn't to beat us last time), so we're properly in Martinez and Belgium territory if anything else happens.

    I do wonder what club Pedro Neto would be playing for if he didn’t do his knee and ankle in back to back years.

    Looks back to his best this year.

    That’s an incredible jinx. For anyone not watching he’s just pulled his hamstring in whilst running at goal

    Yep. Definitely isn’t down to luck either, I don’t think.

    Well, muscle injuries anyway. Probably a bit unlucky if your leg gets snapped

    This is what amazes me about Salah.

    With PRESSING and running yourself into the ground being the core of the modern game, I can remember him being out for maybe about 2 weeks of his entire Liverpool career(the Barcelona comeback week-ish).

    Yeah, and that was concussion wasn't it? And he must have played 50+ games a year for what, 6 years? Madness.

    Edit: 305 games in 6 seasons, only one season under 50 games. I bet he played quite a lot of those 90 minutes as well.

    It's crazy. He may be creeping into his 30's now, but things like that should be considered when the Public Investment Fund comes calling in June.
