  1. Fernando having a right stinker
  2. "The proof of the pudding is in the eating" is the original expression I think (or something like that). That's the bastardised version.
  3. Three goals when it's too late don't get Mitro off the hook for a season of unmitigated shite. Only shown heart when it's too late - where the fuck was that attitude before the Sunderland game? All too happy to amble around doing piss all, before the big derby game. He's appalling with the ball at his feet. No pace, no tricks, no discernible footballing skill. I was so excited when he arrived, but I saw things in him that just aren't there based on the available evidence of this season. He may develop some parts of his game in the future but right now, he's not better than peak Sherla. Shola could play back in the day. Was promising when he was in the Eng under 21 set-up. Had a few tricks, could beat a man, reasonable strength, his shooting hadn't deteriorated to the shooting power of a three-year old, even showed traces of having goalscoring instincts and movement. Never consistent admittedly and it all went (hilariously) to pot, of course, but his insanely slow and lackadaisical end of career form shouldn't colour that he was a pretty reasonable third/fourth choice striker for a while (depending on who you saw was higher up the pecking order between him and Lua Lua).
  4. Shola > Mitrovic. Scored in the fecking Nou Camp, man!
  5. Is there any fixture that wouldn't get this reaction? If we were home to NUFC, they're shocking on the road. Even then I'm not sure.

    The club has fallen so far that no one really gives a shit NUFC are getting relegated
  7. Be interesting to see the follow up tweet in another 12 months. "Insolvent. PL title stripped after club-wide doping scandal."
  8. Starting Anita at LB was insane.
  9. It's trivial at this point, but Rafa was pretty shit today.
  10. Norwich wanted shot if they hadn't won that. Ashley and Charnley, enjoy
  11. Villa, NUFC and Palace for the drop? Seems realistic enough atm.
  12. Arnautovic's assist was sensational.
  13. Nearly everyone associated with the club thoroughly deserves this.
  14. How can they not know to pass to men in space? They're mindbogglingly shit.
  15. Good goalthreat though. Eventually, opposition defenders realise they don't need to mark the useless twat and that's when he's most dangerous.
