First 20 mins will be wild. Both teams will be flying out of the blocks and how it settles down after that will determine the tempo of the game. All of the pressure will be on Arsenal to win it so we don't need to go mad as the longer it goes being tight the more they need to risk to win it. Disciplined from the start and pace off the bench to hit them on the break would be my way of doing it. They've got to win, lull them in and fuck them on the counter

Frank will be delighted they won the second half. That's what he told them at HT to go out and do. Wear the shirt with a bit of pride and win that half and they did that so he'll be pleased with that. He'll probably not mention the first half where they jogged through the game and conceded 3 and looked liked children. The second half was the real quiz, that was the real quiz. Madueke has thrown a kettle over a pub, what's Odegaard ever done?

Gabriel is fucked like. No idea why he's not been subbed yet, the game's dead

Mid 90's QPR were the best team in London. Chelsea's top striker was Paul Furlong and they played in front of 2 barns a stand and a shed. Chelsea were decent in the 70s and totally irrelevant until Matthew Harding bought Bates out. They've been a machine for the last 25 years admittedly

Wonder what odds you would have been given in August if you'd said Newcastle would have been 26 points ahead of Chelsea at the start of May?

Frank gently applying a small bit of sellotape to the stable door. Whata facking geezer

This is what happens when you try and throw money at fundamental problems. The owner is an ignorant, interfering fuckwit The squad doesn't give a single fuck about the club they're representing. They signed for the money. The manager is incompetent. Palpably out of his depth with virtually zero skill, experience and unable to motivate his squad It's fucking amazing how wrong they've got it. If you wanted to deliberately try and waste a billion quid in a year you'd pretty much have done what this gormless cunt has done with his cash. A billion quid bonfire wouldn't have been as entertaining though

Frank to bring on 3 true Brits on at HT and bin these soft forrens. They need to die for the shirt and that's just not happening

They're not even pretending to give a fuck. It's delicious

So just to confirm that he's been charged with what he said in the interviews after the game rather than his behaviour during the game? Have I got that right, yeah?

Bewkies have then at 14/1 to come up, so...

Allardyce has zero positive impact in 4 weeks. Zero. It takes at least 10 games for defenders to figure out what the fuck they're supposed to do. Allardyce is Leeds' suicide note, they're done

Decent chance that Everton only get 2 more points this season. They're getting nothing from City or Brighton, not sure they're good enough to beat Wolves away and Bournemouth will have nothing to lose and have zero pressure on the last day

Wow

He plays and acts like an 8 year old. Absolute arsehole

You know what I'd hate? A last minute Leicester winner

Can I ask where you read this? Was it on a toilet wall written in shit perchance?

Can't imagine a better match than Pickford and Spurs. Symbiotic cunts

Pickford should have caught that. Poor

Oliver quick to give that, hates the cunts too, good lad

Michael Keane - penalty magnet

That's ligaments that. He's proper fucked

The team Bruce handed over to Howe in October '21 loses to both of these and probably finishes bottom

Big big game this. Fancy Leicester strongly.

I think Potter needs a club that's going to guarantee him time and they're pretty few and far between. I don't think he's a 'impact' manager who can walk in and change things quickly, he needs time to impose his philosophy on to the squad and get everything right with the coaching and scouting side of things. Brighton was the perfect place for him and I'm still a bit baffled as to why he chose to take the Chelsea job as he was always on a hiding to nothing going into that shitshow. He's now a very rich man but he's burned a few of his bridges as a result. Hindsight is wonderful but he should have stayed where he was
