  1. PSG look miles the better side in ET
  2. That race for Europe has been entertaining but it's hardly that interesting for the neutral. We get to see who will play in an extra competition next season, wow, how enthralling. Liverpool strolling to the title, no relegation battle to speak of (again). Even the story of the season, in Man Citys collapse will still have them qualifying for the CL. I guess Man Utd and Spurs being shit is funny. PSR expanding the gap between the Championship and the PL has made it worse too. Gone are the days when all 3 promoted clubs may stay up imo. It means there's less risk for PL clubs making them more valuable like, which is really what matters to the PL chiefs. They're lucky that the PL is well marketed and already has a sustained following, because as a sporting/competitive entity, it's quite fucking shit.
  3. Don't think I could despise FIFA or that bald prick Infantino any more if I tried.
  4. He's had a shocking time with injuries like
  5. I wonder if we had Botman whether Howe would play Burn at full back, tuck him in and have Trippier higher up the pitch as part of the system that served us very well two years ago. Not that it matters, because Botman isn't fit. Think he'll play one of Livramento or Trippier at left back. Can't see him trusting Targett.
  6. Hall looked good against Salah too. Daunting for his replacement, who'll be out of position and up against the best player in the world. Class.
  7. UEFA Cup Quarter Final, FA Cup Semi Final and then an injury time defeat to bottom of the league. Three horrific games
  8. Full strength. Finishing in the CL places is arguably more important for the club than the League Cup final. I know we want to win a trophy, but 2 seasons out of 3 in the CL will enable to club to kick on massively.
  9. Me. By all accounts it was shite being there watching us lose and I can tell you It was shite watching it back here watching us lose. I'm happy that we're competing and I'm happy with the direction of the club. Am I looking forward to this particular final? No, not remotely.

    Nick Pope

    Looks an absolute shadow of his former self When he first came in for Dubravka he had such a presence in goal. He looked imperious. Looks shaky and less mobile now. Injuries have may have knocked him. Good save towards the end, hopefully he regains some confidence between now and the end of the season. He'll be number 2 or away by next season though.
  11. I think they can be got at. I don't think they're infallible. However. We'll need Isak, Botman and Joelinton. We'll need to take our chances and be impeccable defensively. We'll need them not at their best and a slice of luck. Will it all come together? Very, very doubtful but I don't think it's an impossible task.
  12. Reckon Southampton could struggle to beat Derbys record.
  13. Serious amount of waffle to say 'they met at Matfen Hall'
  14. Malaga were two injury time Dortmund goals away from making the CL semis about a decade ago.
  15. https://www.football365.com/news/man-utd-ineos-blame-ferguson-decline-sick-hearing-legendary-manager Obviously nonsense but INEOS blaming Ferguson for their current plight is quite funny. According to the article, they're "Sick of hearing about how Ferguson dominated for 20 years". Aye, I bet they are
  16. Need to work on keeping the ball and controlling the game. We finished the game with Miley, Bruno and Tonali for fucks sake, yet we can't keep the ball? It's a coaching issue. Seeing Livramento come inside and find no options. Lazy foul after lazy foul inviting pressure. Players not tracking their runner. It needs sorting out. Also, Callum Wilson is DONE. He offers nothing and his lack of pace causes us problems. He should be a last resort off the bench. Great spell in the first half, but I'm really struggling to get over that second half. I'll take the points. Botman and Joelinton back please ASAP.
  17. That was a fucking horrible performance to be honest
  18. Absolutely disgraceful second half performance this like
