Bit random maybe but I've had this quote from Bill Burr written down for ages that he uttered on one of his podcasts when talking about Maradona and trying to remember his name. It was just so funny and perfect: " The Hand of God guy, that guy. Diego. One of those names, the second they gave him his name, like pussy is going to be raining down on this guy. It was weird, he was in shape but he also looked fat. Diego Aregamo ?"

Hatem "not one single extra point" Ben Arfa.

He still hasn't managed to get offside when the referee blows the whistle!

There's no excuse for allowing that level of cliche crap to be said unchallenged after these last few years. Takes quite something to get me to feel passionate about nufc these days, but seeing this was so very triggering Lawro can absolutely go fuck himself. What a cunt.

And he's in the starting line up

First thought, question that came to mind also. Apparently that is indeed the case - good. Caulkin confirms in a tweet.

Just found out about this. Class. The team is a mess though, so it might be perfect for him to just play and improvise.

This. Petulant all round. Either way Lamela is complete scum and Martial should be less braindead and know better. Lamela instigates and flops. And he gets nothing. It's just a complete waste of time hoping for better from players and the league zzzzz

Just seen the incident. I have little interest in watching Newcastle these days, have even less interest in seeing this bullshit even in our favour.

His schtick was always difficult in my opinion, and became often absolutely unbearable even. But we've also seen enough moments, tidbits, interviews, wisdom sharing etc... from him to know that he's a really great man.

A clear pen and a clear hand ball.... So retro!

Isn't Richards class as well? Genuinely don't know, as don't watch anyway, but seen a few clips of him and seem to remember reading his praises.

I'm sure he does, and maybe with flashes of brilliance here and there. Number 9 is weird though. Still find it very annoying that Kane doesn't wear it for them.

That's really cool having Bale back, got to admit. Plus will be good to watch him play regularly, see what he still offers.

This was annoying enough earlier. Marseille player got booked for this tackle: https://twitter.com/ThauvinAlex13/status/1305234543566368771?s=19

Seen none of the end game action, but it must have been total panto bullshit in sure. With people falling over all over the place.

He can barely speak himself, asking for the guy next home to finish his sentence They're asking him whether he'd consider another stint in the French League. "Don't know what the future holds, studying different options at the moment and we'll see. But French League is really interesting, having spent time in Spain, French League is better. In Spain Barca and Real hide the rest, but for the majority of clubs the Ligue 1 is better." Yeah not fascinating stuff!

Just watched this. I think it further reinforces just how much of a wanker he was and still is. His explanation for his use of the quenelle was pure horseshit. Enjoyed the watch, but thought the same really after finishing it. Misunderstood? Seems like pretty much we all understood his career perfectly fine.

I don't get why he still gets so upset. His whole spiel seems marketed around the superfluous, the highlight regardless of the end result. And he spends most of his time on the pitch trying to screw over his fellow professional. Then like it's some crazy turn of event that it doesn't work. Meh, just one more disingenuous thing about him.

Mbappe needs to get away from Neymar whichever way possible and as soon as possible.

Speaking of beautiful old school Simpsons references

He's highly skilled in the old school Simpsons reference too. Relentless

Were Real's kit providers for a while in the nineties. Certainly where I know them from.

It's a weird feeling and thought having your childhood hero turn 50. Still, thank you for the good times, big man!
