I'm probably a bad person but I don't think I really care. I don't think they are anyone's first choice as a new owner but I just want Ashley gone. I don't need success or billions pumped into the club. I just want to watch NUFC and feel something. And if not us, they would buy some other club while we would be stuck in this meaningless existence under Ashley. In any case, they are so rich that any money fans use on the club is absolutely meaningless in the bigger picture and not directly used to do horrible things around the world. I'm willing to just close my eyes and not think about it too much and just watch football again without the apathy (hopefully).

Liverpool are even luckier. Infogol ran 10000 simulations based on Liverpool's xG stats this season and the best one had them at 18 wins and 3 draws which would happen once in 800 seasons. The problem (?) is that they are really lucky and really fucking good while we are really lucky and absolute garbage.

Yeah, pretty similar case to what Viana was for us.

Oh ffs I have no interest in keeping this going. If you really think selling Xabi Alonso (who apparently wanted to stay and was under contract for 3? years) was a Rafa masterclass on how to operate in the transfer market, I don't know what else I could say. And once again, I have never said Rafa isn't a great manager but you can't just rule out all his mistakes as bad scout advice or being forced to do something stupid. Just to be sure, imo Rafa is a great manager.

Pretty sure I said he bought a lot of garbage as a Liverpool manager, not that Rafa is absolute garbage in the market. Josemi Nunez Morientes Zenden Sissoko Crouch Gonzalez Kromkamp Paletta Aurelio Pennant Voronin Babel Insua Dossena Keane Riera Johnson Aquilani Just some of his misses for Liverpool. No one is saying that Rafa isn't a great manager but it's hilarious how you think he has never in his career made a mistake which selling Xabi Alonso clearly was when he tried to replace him with £18m Alberto Aquilani.

Selling Salah and De Bruyne when you don’t have to sell to buy is a mess up(Mourinho) Selling Alonso because you have to sell to buy isn’t. He didn’t have the luxury of Abramovich as owner. Poor Rafa, maybe he shouldn't have bought so much absolute garbage at Liverpool then with his extremely limited funds.

I'm surprised Rafa didn't say it was a complete fuck up.

Has to be some shady company owning him making piles of money with the loan deal?

That's a bold take.

I'd love to know where this 50fps bollocks came from, Hawkeye goes up to 340fps. Pretty sure I had this same conversation with David Edgar few weeks ago.

Pretty sure Kane was offside before the handball but it can't be checked. I was 100% pro VAR but this is fucking shite at least in this league.

Yes, we are shite but no need to fucking make up things. Gayle had a great chance earlier.

They’re already saying Ljungberg has ruined his invincibles legacy. Arteta doesn’t have a legend bond with Arsenal fans. I really hope no one thinks your opinions are those of every NUFC fan.

I don't see the crowd jumping on his back anytime soon.

What a terrible appointment the absolute opposite of what Arsenal need in every sense. How can you say that?

Just saw this, stunning goal.

Very true. They can play counter attacking football in the "big games". Can't really create if the other team is sitting deep especially without Pogba.

People blaming VAR for correcting a situation that was caused entirely by an incompetent linesman is pretty fucking hilarious.

The same linesman raised his flag on another extremely tight call five minutes after the massive fuck up, boggled my mind.

Was clearly an accident.

Everyone is on TV Woosh.

Come on ref

Why you watching you hate the f***ers. Cos i feel like it. Fucking hypocrite This is class.

How do they work out the expected points? What's the metrics? They count how many points each team should have got from the match based on xG but I don't know the exact formula. For example, in us vs City we got 0.13 and City got 2.79 expected points.
