Fuck me - just win ffs.

Great pass by Mitro. Lovely technique.
-
This ref is bloody terrible.
-
How is that not a foul??
-
Mitro been brilliant today.
-
Ha ha - appalling decision.
-
Sorry - that's a great save. NO question.
-
Would be a million times a better appointment than Moyes or Rodgers.
-
Average shot/goal ratio in the PL is about 15%. Thanks - do you know if individual player stats can be found? Tried looking for this before but couldn't find it.
-
Against West Ham he had good opportunities and semi-opportunities. Couldn't join the party. Agreed - but that is one of the few games where he had multiple chances.
-
That would be amazing. Both out of work and available - kind of managers who might be capable of actually making a difference. There is absolutely no reason why we shouldn't be able to attract them - that's the kind of manager we should be aiming for.
-
Yeah - will be interested to listen to that one. I've listened to most of the other ones and I don't think there is a more annoying man than Hunter. His questions are just rambling and his tone is sycophantic.
-
Was a pretty bad miss - he looked genuinely confused as to whether to try and head it or volley it and ended up getting his body in the wrong position (which seems to be a failing of his). As other people have said though - it's hardly as if he is missing 5 or 6 chances each game. But with out struggles the chances he does miss are that much more important. I'd be interested to know what the PL average is for chances/goals.
-
He would be a much better player if he could actually control the ball and had a general awareness of what was going on around him.
-
Being a winger playing at LB might be stupid, but it doesn't mean you make fucking stupid tackles.
-
What a stupid tackle. Brainless.
-
Sissoko is so thick.
-
It's basically a completely useless phrase that means nothing. I suspect Chelsea thought that Torres was a proven PL goalscorer when they bought him and that Shevchenko was a proven goalscorer. Alternatively Arsenal probably hoped but had no real idea that Henry was going to be a prolific goalscorer. And agreed - when does a player become a proven PL goalscorer? If Vardy and Austin are proven PL goalscorers after one season, then so were players like Michael Ricketts, Marcus Stewart and DJ Campbell. It's just lazy.
-
James Horncastle (Guardian Italian correspondent and on BT Sport) seems to think he will be a good signing and that Roma didn't really give him a chance.
-
The use, overuse, or indeed, misuse of the word 'proven' when it comes to describing a footballer.
-
That Dutch journalist - Michael Jongsma - has queried Douglas on why we think we have a chance of getting Willems.
-
EUR 20 million offer for Slimani turned down? According to France Football anyway.
-
Yep - forgot him. just seems strange to end up looking at someone at Gomis. There must be other strikers around surely? That Ben Yedder guy at Toulouse seems worth a look or Niasse that Everton are interested in. It's hardly as if Gomis is a proven goal scorer in the PL. if anything - he has proved he isn't that good in the PL.
-
Just don't get how our striker shortlist is/was berahino, remy, gomis and doumbia. Admittedly I can't propose any names myself, but is that genuinely the best we could come up with?
