back on eBay with their cup final scarves

Hadn’t really realised (until you notice Dubravkas constantly poor starting position) how important Pope as sweeper keeper was.

Just a walking shirt today, another rushed back and ran into the ground due to circumstance

Was clear from the opening minutes they had identified him as the weak link and liked their matchup against him. All first half I was desperate for him to be subbed before the inevitable happened. ….

Certainly sounded like a threat when I heard it earlier. Also has more of a sinister feel when it was recorded during the clubs hospital visit.

This, this and this again

Not even in the same ball park imo

Like I say i need to see the incident again but based off the VAR replays they didnt even consider the defenders playing of the ball

" A player in an offside position receiving the ball from an opponent who deliberately played* the ball, including by deliberate handball, is not considered to have gained an advantage, unless it was a deliberate save by any opponent. *‘Deliberate play’ (excluding deliberate handball) is when a player has control of the ball with the possibility of: passing the ball to a team-mate; gaining possession of the ball; or clearing the ball (e.g. by kicking or heading it) If the pass, attempt to gain possession or clearance by the player in control of the ball is inaccurate or unsuccessful, this does not negate the fact that the player ‘deliberately played’ the ball. " https://www.thefa.com/football-rules-governance/lawsandrules/laws/football-11-11/law-11---offside I need to see it again but i would say it was an unsuccessful attempt to gain possession or clearance, what else is he doing otherwise?

Doesnt matter under the rules that were played last season

Going back to this, it doesnt matter if Isak was offside when they drew the lines. The other defender intentionally played the ball before it fell to Isak so he cant be offside. Or have the rules changed again?

Their player intentionally kicked it so onside?

Did Lascelles and Miley go off in the same game break?

As someone said previously it may be a Greizmann/Atleti style clause where mins late in games don’t count

Can only presume we are close to triggering the clause to sign him this January window and the club need to keep the funds (ffp budget) for injury replacements. Be interesting to see how often he plays February onwards

Pretty sure the QPR fans were gutted when he left and their season fell to bits immediately after.

£28m would never be considered a bargain fee imo

The sentance after saying it infact "It’s so difficult to compete at this level. And it’s an absolute disgrace. Again, I feel embarrassed. I’ve been more than 20 years in this country and this is nowhere near the level to describe this as the best league in the world."

Pretty sure in his rant he actually said (in perfect english) how long he had been here

Probably been posted but fuck me what an awful take

Hundreds if not thousands, ridiculous amount

Can’t criticise any of the squad but fuck me the fans that left at 2-1 can fuck off and never come back. I told them as they left and I’ll tell them if I see them again. We don’t need entitled cunts like that following our club.

I'm sure the question will have been posed before now but interesting to get peoples thoughts on game day. Its approaching injury time, PSG have lost we are drawing 0-0, as it stands we are in the Europa but both teams could still qualify for CL. Are you throwing everyone forward 'all or nothing' or accepting the way the night has gone and not gamble the Europa status
