2-0! Boniface looks pretty bloody good.

Been avoiding Anfield. Did I miss any discussion of those glorious European nights? The ritual bricking of the opposition coach? Oof, West Ham just desperately hanging on.

If what they were saying earlier is true then a win for Leverkusen and a win for Villa means we’re about level with Germany.

Ironically Fabianski couldn’t see the shot because of all the defenders right in front of him.

Finally a goal

Proper Moyesball. 28% possession and 1 shot, versus 23 shots from Leverkusen. Tbf doing exactly what they need to do.

I mean, this is what they do. They’re built for this and train for it 24/7.

Jesus there really is too much football. I need to develop a multiscreen war room.

Leverkusen move the ball around so quickly the ref is always in the way

I do think that’s only a yellow, but Paqueta’s a bit lucky there

Kicking off! Mint

Leverkusen are really bloody good, tbf

Yeah, watching West Ham isn’t fun. Timewasting already too.

Strong sides all round.

Forgot it was Milan-Roma tonight, seems a bit more interesting.

Didn’t realize just how lucky Arsenal have been with injuries this year. They have nine players with 27 or more PL appearances this year, and the only reason it isn’t ten is because they’ve rotated their keeper a bit. In contrast you guys have only five, and two of those are Miggy and Longstaff. We have seven, but that includes Hojbjerg who’s come on as sub 24 times.

Not really related but vaguely: our Man City game just got moved to the last week of the season. The question on The Fighting Cock podcast was “could you root for a Spurs loss if it meant missing out on CL but Arsenal not winning the title?” The conclusion was that the absolute best case scenario was that we kick-off, run down our end and just leather it in. Then do the same thing 100 times. Entire stadium cheering like mad, every own goal we score 60 thousand people do the Poznan. Not gonna lie, I’m tempted. Imagine the atmosphere. And imagine the unadulterated fume from all those Arsenal pundits. Reckon it’s well worth it.

And tbf, “Do you appreciate a good shit?” is only partway down the second page. Glass houses and all that.

I think Lille are considered the best chance of Villa losing, so tonight will be crucial.

Yeah in the end. We wanted Gvardiol years ago trying to get him when the price wasn’t as steep. VDV is obviously more suited now Ange is here.

Why not…both?

They make a profit of £100M anyway - it doesn’t matter to them.

It’s what you had to pay. Everyone wanted him. We’d been after him for ages but our window closed very quickly.

My wife’s been to the house in question

Yeah, everyone overrates their own kids
