No Salah/VVD makes a big difference to their side -

Havertz playing as striker doesn't help Combined with Liverpool being blessed with an insane amount of luck -

Havertz is such a donkey Insane that Arsenal paid £65m for him -

Arsenal should be in the lead, Liverpool so jammy -

Nelson should pass it once he went that wide -
It's based on the made up twitter nonsense of him cheating on his wife with a 16 year old It's utter bollocks but that didn't stop them chanting it at him, which tbf Trippier didn't let it get to him It's all ironic as this is the same fanbase that lauded Adam Johnson, even after it was legitimately reported what he had done

The rule has always been like that, I say always but certainly since I've been watching football (90's onwards) It should have been a penalty and a red card as there was no genuine attempt to play the ball However I'm now glad it wasn't given, the narrative would have then been spin that with eleven on the pitch they'd have given us a game

I actually thought Bellingham looked quite tidy but definitely very raw

FA Cup Fourth Round Draw - Fulham (a) on 27/01/24 @ 7pm (Live on ITV4)
Geordie Ahmed replied to 54's topic in Football
That's right City (H) 13th Fourth round 27th/28th Villa (a) 30th Luton (H) 3rd Then it's pretty much 1 game per week unless we are in the 5th round which is midweek 28th Feb -

27th Jan We have Villa away on 30th Jan so could do with a nice, easy home tie Which means it will be City/Spurs/Arsenal away -
Miggy was brilliant today, especially out of possession In the grand scheme of things it doesn't mean a great deal, unless we are playing Sunderland level opposition week in week out

FA Cup Third Round: sunderland (A) 06/01/24 @ 12:45 - Live on ITV
Geordie Ahmed replied to 54's topic in Football
I wanted this draw to happen, was excited it happened but now I'm kicking off with myself for wanting it Absolutely bricking it now, not felt like this in a long, long time -
Apologies, probably would have helped if I read the earlier posts. On the training ground/stadium sponsor I get the feeling they're leaving these as last resorts. Sponsoring the stadium will cause ructions, from outside and even within the fanbase, so why make such a move if you are still increasing your revenue in other areas. I do agree with you there is scope to do more but I don't see it as them being unwilling, just rather they want to make it look more organic and therefore it attracts less attention. That's just how I see it, could be totally wrong but think 3-5 years we'll have done a lot more in this area.
-
I hear you but I just feel going down the route of challenging FFP is a long winded and murky road I'm not necessarily against that approach as I can see how decent lawyers highlight the flaws I just prefer the approach we are taking, it's gradual and more organic (just to clarify, it at least feels more organic, I'm not naive to why we ha e Sela/Noon)

What's crazy is the ref had a brilliant view of it, made the correct call, gets told to look at the replays, which confirm it was the correct decision and he then changes his mind I can only assume the moment a referee is told to take a look the doubt starts to creep in and they must feel that they have messed up and that they have to change their mind, it's madness VAR could be amazing but it's being operated by morons -
I think it's brought up to downplay the idea we have a huge budget, never a good thing to tell other clubs you are flash with cash and also it's a reality and something we have to adhere to FFP exists and as a result we have to play by the rules As for doing something about it? I disagree that we haven't done anything. The Sela sponsorship, the noon sponsorship, the multiple official partners, the Adidas deal etc is all part of doing something about Very basic calculations but that's probably an increase of £60m in revenue and no doubt we'll continue drive that revenue up. That's the sensible approach rather than just going to court (this should always be a final resort)
-
I get the doubts about the league but 27 is hardly old, we signed Wilson when he was 29 If we think he can do a job in this league then it's a no brainer for me, even if we get 2-3 seasons out of him The reality is Wilson will not stay fit for the remainder of the season and so far we are seeing the increased workload on Isak doesn't end up well either, so another striker would be more than welcome
-
According to The Times we are favourites to sign Guirassy, who has a £15m release clause Would be a no brainer at that price

We all know that they will do absolutely nothing They talk a good game but can't be arsed and want others to do it for them, whether that is protesting or with their flag attempts -
His release clause in the summer which Chelsea activated was £35m, he signed a new contract but no reports stating how much the new release clause is Being heavily linked with Man U but he would be an ideal signing for RW
-
Tbf I'm sure he wrote an article a good while back slating FFP

Dogawful Officiating: PL to keep VAR next season (official)
Geordie Ahmed replied to a topic in Football
I'm guessing if you try to stop an attack but don't do it in a dangerous way and the advantage/play continues then you shouldn't be booked? You only get booked if it was dangerous, so a bad tackle etc However in last night's scenario I'm sure I've pretty much always seen players get booked for it -
Maybe Fraser, he's seemingly doing well on loan at Southampton But at least Hendrick will finally be leaving in the summer
-
I think for the summer hopefully we have a budget that's within FFP that isn't reliant upon sales However, if possible then Miggy and Wilson to be sold to increase our budget Can see us looking to renew Schar, Lascelles and Krafth, anyone else whose contract expires in the summer needs to be let go
