  1. Know this will make the idiots fume but to add to that Chelsea underperformed their expected goals by 14 points which shows that they would have done way better if they had a better striker too Where are you getting this from? Their xG was 63.97 and they scored 63 goals. Sorry expected points I meant Hmm. Wonder what the different methodologies are used as this one has Chelsea getting more than their xP. https://understat.com/league/EPL

    I still don't think that it is particularly similar decision, Carrick was established and undoubtedly ready to step up. Longstaff has played fewer than 15 games for us. As great as he was in that short spell this season, he's still got a lot to do here to fully establish himself. I think he'll be fine as he seems so composed and calm but he's still at a fundamentally different point in his career than Carrick was when he went to Spurs and the decision he may or may not have to make is therefore fundamentally different.

    Proper 'keeper saves it mind.

    Think so. It did in the old man cup. Put an outfield player in net the way to go.

    And as soon as I put it back on Rangers make it 3-3

    FFS I turned it off at half time as we'd been so shit.

    Playing like a bunch of randoms picked off the street. Awful.

    2-0 shambolic defending.

    1-0 down awful in midfield.

    Because if they give the ball away and don't get it back instantly they probably lose the game so looking for a tap in really.

    Really clever tactic for the sudden death extra time as well.
  15. SkyBet has nothing to do with Sky Sports. Owned by The Stars Group that own PokerStars etc etc. I thought BSkyB have a percentage in the company? Not a major percentage but a percentage. 100% owned by The Stars Group these days.

    It would be nothing like Carrick to Spurs, Carrick had played four full seasons and over 150 games at West Ham at left after a season in the second tier.
  18. Ask Guardiola not Benitez Just means money basically. Cheque.
  19. Barnes isn't a practising legal professional, so no. Club will be represented by their usual legal advisors (they use a number of firms for different things).
  20. Mental decision to play him, I know it's his last game but in a game like this I'd rather our best keeper was playing. Played every FA Cup game so far, think it's the right thing to do. Foster is clearly better than him, mind he has had the odd big howler this season. Always think it's a bit of an odd one. We'd go spare if we started Elliot over Dubravka, regardless of how many cup games the former had played. You can only do this if you have two good enough 'keepers. Would have had no problem with this when we had Given and Harper.
