Swear the last 3 or 4 times I've put MOTD/MOTD2 on we've had this shite high-pitched treacle commentating on our game. FYI this isn't a dig at female commentators, just this one lady in particular. She's shite.

Part of the Shelvey boom and bust cycle is a few canny games where we pick up points, followed by injury and inconsistency and maybe a red card, and a run of ineffective lazy shite performances. New regime should move him on ASAP.

As if there's an article about "who's to blame for Benfica" and no mention of Santon and that fucking pathetic shit backpass.

3-1 loss.

I think there's been so much false information thrown around during this process that people are understandably wary. A lot of people won't be aware of your "legitimate ITK" status on here either, but passing it on is greatly appreciated.

Golfmag says the PL will crack at any minute, purple monkey dishwasher

I agree, even in the Sheff U win he gave the ball away loads and looked slow and clumsy. Was the only player that day to look bad. Not a coincidence that we played our best and most fluid stuff with him on the bench at Bournemouth IMO. Manquillo looked better on his wrong side than Rose does on his favoured one, and dare I say it Krafth was steady and tidy on the other side.

Watkins would get 10 goals in any PL side next season IMO, he's quality.

All season long I've had a shitter at 3pm on a Saturday and then salvaged it on the late game or a Sunday. Absolutely shocking results for me at 3 bells, did £10 on Giroud first as he was boosted to 9/2 then stuck £5 of the winnings on Willian 2nd at 8/1 boosted there's my day salvaged back into profit and a pizza on the way courtesy of Chelsea. Pulisic 3rd goal at 6/1 to see if the boosted player charm remains.

They have to plan for both potential scenarios I'd imagine, means very little. Probably not even true anyway.

Turn that frown upside down

Maguire again he's fucking shite

Another week of absolutely fuck all this is class.

Sterling Kane and Benzema anytime 16/1 Mane Salah and KDB 1+ SOT each 6/1 Bergwijn FGS 13/2

Frank Lampard's Chelsea can fuck off. Utterly pathetic.

I think he's a good manager and he's done remarkably well with Bournemouth, but I think some of the money he's spent has been in the wrong areas. 5 years after being promoted and you still have Steve Cook and Adam Smith in the back four, but huge sums wasted on shite like Ibe and Solanke at the other end of the pitch.

Excellent commentary duo those two. One sends a shiver down your spine and the other is just posturing.

Get in. Genuinely excited to see Moyes' post-match interview

Get in, ViVAR la video assistant referee. Cannae wait to see Moysey booting off after the match again

He reminds me of Noddy Holder.

ASM first 12/1 Krafth card 13/2 2-2 draw 18/1 Those my main picks for this evening. also got the Sky boost

Never scored for them has he? Get a G on him to bag tonight.

It’s funny when they keep saying ‘and I thought we hit rock bottom when...’ unable to realise more is coming their way. The bigger they are, the harder they fall, and these fuckers have fell through a gigantic sinkhole with all the things that apparently make them a big club weighing them down further. Mark Campbell is sniffing again and apparently in advanced talks. Out of the fire and in to the furnace. The only advantage they had over the rest of the division was crowd size. That's now gone if there's a L1 season at all it'll probably be BCD and fan income will be, broadly, equalised. Even then a lot of them are saying they're not putting another penny in until The Don goes. Sponsorship will be virtually nothing, merchandise will be very small I just don't know how they're going to honour the contracts of Cattermole and Oviedo let alone the players still there. The owners have no cash and they've already borrowed £10m. Players still need to be paid and refunds given out. They're staring into the abyss and it could be years and years of rattling around in L1 and 2 before they get themselves out of the shit. Even crowd size has had its negatives. Players who are at this level and have been brought in have struggled to play in front of large crowds with big expectations. Additionally the big crowds in their big stadium has opposition rocking up wanting to perform on this stage, for some of them the biggest they’ve played in. They also know the crowd can be counterproductive and the away team can get under their skin quickly, especially when they apply pressure to their players on the ball forcing mistakes...then comes the beeeeeeeeeew. Every last thing that should make things easier for them has held them back. The cost of running the stadium, the crowds, the expectations, the academy costs and their perceived better players, some who had premiership experience. It’s been a canny act from the owners to inflict this much damage, and most of it not on purpose. It’s like some bizarre experiment Played out by a computer to see how quickly you can ruin a top flight football club but it wasn’t quick enough 1st time round so they added sim city style disasters to speed it up. Next up safc invaded by aliens. Stadium of Light built on an as-yet undiscovered Sunlin Burial Ground, evil zombie lads fans crawl up from under the turf and beat the first team 2-1.

Parker's making a right arse of it at the minute like. They'll be lucky to stay in the playoffs at this rate.

no it isn't
