Referee's fucking appauling

I always feel confident wen Edward has the opponent rattled

so bad man

I just cannot see us going into the 2nd half of the season with one of Gillespie, Ruddy or Vlach as 2nd choice, seems suicidal given Pope's injury record. I hope I'm right here anyway

He has a bad rep from us but he barely played and it was nearly a decade ago. Nuno seems to have a knack for picking up players everyone thinks are shite and getting everything out of them.

Not a chance he leaves without us bringing someone in.

Onabout this one?

This pair of eyebrows seems fairly level head, but I'm proper baffled by the whole "the rules are unfair" shite. Do these people seriously want accidental - hands by your side - handballs to be penalised? The fact they are for the goalscorer is stupid enough. If Bergvall had picked a better pass instead of pinging it off Joelinton we wouldn't have scored. Reminds me of the penalty that got overturned against Arsenal, where it deflected off a knee and onto the hand, although most of us accepted that although it was annoying, the rules were fair enough. Why the fuck would it have been a pen?

Love a proper counter attacking side personally. Nuno/Conte ect. They did get a bit lucky in the first half like.

Hopefully we bundle in a proper minging winner after hitting Gordon's hand in the buildup.

Potter would be an annoyingly good appointment.

That's clever tbf

There's also teams changing their tactics against you, playing a low block and grinding out a draw etc. Teams just let us have the ball a couple seasons back when we looked unbeatable, as we famously struggled to break teams down sitting back.

A modern day Paul Dummett

It's all part of the package. Essentially "it's unlikely we are currently in the process of a record breaking (for us) run, because they are very rare". I'm not sure why we're flipping coins, that's a completely different conversation @Checko it's from Wiki, I just posted it here. Basically I don't think KI misunderstands how probabilities work, I just don't think he's using the same model you would to determine coinflips as you would to to determine football results. I think that lands under "common-sense observation".

"Depending on context or application it can be considered a valid common-sense observation or a misunderstanding of probability." KI's making a common sense observation, that we're not currently in the process of 'making history' to be among the few teams in history to win 9 off the belt and that will effect our next 4 games.

The law of averages is the commonly held belief that a particular outcome or event will, over certain periods of time, occur at a frequency that is similar to its probability.[1][2] Depending on context or application it can be considered a valid common-sense observation or a misunderstanding of probability. Think the bit in bold is where we're getting stuck here

I think KI understands this like

You don't think Howe could coach a few 20p coins to all land head 4 times in a row?

It's not that it's less likely because we've just won 5, us winning 5 off the belt was unlikely, us winning another 4 is also unlikely.

What I'm saying isn't wrong though We're not far ahead enough of Fulham, Bournemouth or Wolves for randomness not to be a fairly large part of our results against them. Southampton's new manager might tighten them up too.

Law of averages init Basically we could be seen to have been 'fortunate' to win 5 on the bounce as any run requires a degree of luck.

Fair play from the away fans, was genuinely vile what the did to Zirkzee at Old Trafford

Who's that cunt tucked up in bed?
