Agreed. Literally just switched it on as the check was going on. God football feels dead at the moment.

Aim is/was 25% I thought.

Sports Direct's Mike Ashley told to reinstate Jenners signs in Edinburgh https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-edinburgh-east-fife-56830284

Just heard it on a news report on the radio. Something to keep an eye on I guess.

Juve out now. Kind of...

Apparently clubs going after UEFA now to change the new UCL layout already ?

Yep. Was thinking it might of been the reset football needed with them grovelling to come back within 2 years starting at the bottom of the pyramid.

AC MILAN pulling out now... and then there was 3 ?

A. Madrid pulled out now ?

Arsenal withdrawing now.

Factoid for you all. Griezmann has 3 kids and they were all born on the same day of the year. Surely a perfect hat-trick if ever there was one ?

In most teams yes. In a Man City which probably won most of those 27 games not quite as impressive. All I said was he’s reverted to type which was those type of figures for Liverpool & City from a few years ago but with the killer instinct replaced by the return of hesitation. He did it again last minute last night. His form seems to be dipping just as others form are rising. Maybe some of the Man City players are trying to pace themselves for what’s a massive six weeks or more ahead. Southgate will keep faith with him but he’s not as nailed on in my eyes as he used to be.

Going back to that penalty it just highlights all along why VAR is ultimately a waste of time for most things as football is so subjective. The refs gives it. VAR could look at it an apply the head before arm law. Doesn’t! Those that play football regularly knew what Can was doing. Those that know Can know what he was trying to do. Yet you could literally argue it either way. Ultimately a decision has to be made. Normally I think modern penalties are soft and I can kind of see it also with this one but as someone who plays you know Can is playing percentages. He might of played them 51/49 but the decision was 49/51.

He won’t but Sterling is the one to miss out. He’s reverted to type this season.

Yep. Held his arm close to his head so it was going to be one or the other. Thought it reaction told it all. If he meant to head it only he would’ve dived to head it. He went with both. Maybe one of those when your brain is overriding your intention but knowing Can he was being cute and was caught out.

Weird one. Can made it look deliberate so guess that what swayed it.

I noticed the lack of group celebration with ASM more than I did with Murphy. Would find it concerning if it wasn’t for the fact it was such a big game for us and there was a long way still to go. Actually might turn out to of been a good thing.

Don’t think it was a lot of off field issues. Was very distracted by his fashion interests was all I ever heard my Salford friend.

Burnley clearly targeting our RB area.

What was the offside for? Gayle putting it in was onside. Didn’t catch the build up.
