    Ben White against Richarlison was such a miss match. He should stick to Ibiza

    Gray 1 bonus point on fpl? Fuck off.

    I'd lol and say Tavares has no top-level career and is another useless BLM fullback to go with the rest but that erratic distribution reminds me of myself at RB so GWAN NUNO, lad

    A joint effort between Aubameyang being lol, some really poor individual performances (Partey a massive problem) and Arteta not getting a grip on things. Both games we have ended up with a lead only to immediately hand momentum to the other team and just hope we can see it out when it is obvious we are in no shape to do that at the moment. Why the fuck Eddie 'leaving on a free in the summer wont sign a contract' Nketiah is suddenly seen as a game changing sub having not kicked a ball in the league before last week is anyone's guess.

    Nketiahs fee isn’t free. Goes to a tribunal. More games he plays the more money we get from whoever signs him. Arteta thought the game was won. No idea why however.

    It was four times in seven years, but it's not happened in ten years or so. Also drew the lucky loser the year they bailed for the World Club Cup.

    If that is the reason he is playing then we are properly fucked as an organisation, the lad is wank. If he wasn't he would be a regular starter.

    I was reading something about the Plymouth manager being hired by Preston, and was shocked to discover that the latter club are run by, wait for it, Peter Ridsdale.

    What on earth's going on there? Like appointing Gary Glitter as a live-in nanny.

    For fuck's sake, Ralf, call it a "no brainer."

    Also I just sort of assumed any sporting organisation with as much money swilling about as United would have a sports psychologist anyway.

    Liverpool have made their point now. They need to chuck a few in to fuck Simeone's boys over.

    How much did Chelsea get for Tomori again? That contacts book is just endless.

    Just reading about RB Salzburg in that BBC Sport bit about them, my mind has been somewhat blown by the fact that Brighton paid a lot of actual money for Enoch Mwepu. I sort of assumed he'd turned up for nothing/from some sort of loan/feeder situation. £20m?

    Yes, yes, £20m is the new tree fitty etc.

    Putting my faith in the Conte revolution in fantasy terms has been quite testing. First the snow, now covid, when the players get on the pitch they're actually not bad but for fuck's sake. Give me names. I don't want this vague '10 players' shit. No one gives a fuck if half of their no mark players aren't available. Oh noes! 'Dele' [is he still doing that?] has covid.

    Chelsea must be the worst team decent team for the month of December. They have a meltdown every year.

    Not surprising considering the starting 11, mind. An absolute mess

    Matt Doherty might get a game. Though they’d probably play a greyed out player instead.

    Suspect this might be the only outing for the Barkley-James midfield pivot.

    Hudson-Odoi is another one of these modern players. Managers love him due to his running, but when it comes to kicking the ball he is not a top division level player.

    Kepa with the save of the season there, I think.

    Malang Sarr's last game for Chelsea, this. Not good enough.

    Second in the group is the big brain move for Chelsea anyway. With all the other English sides 1 seeds they only really need to avoid Bayern, whereas there will be 'dangerous floaters' in the unseeded teams [PSG, 'Atleti'].

    Havertz is ten times the player Lukaku is. Completely different proposition as a team as soon as that change was made. He actually links up really well with Thicko Timo, too.

    Presumably he (Romelu) can still finish and that, but in a proper league you can't have static centre forwards in this day and age. It's even more tragic when he tries running back (usually after giving the ball away) and you can do a 5 second countdown until he either gives the foul away or runs out of puff.

    Real Madrid are starting to look alright again. That might be because Vini Jnr and Benzema are proper dons though
