Or whoever he was selling it to acted in some manner that led ashley to cancel the sale out of spite? Or just random whim?

Awful

Tbh I'm just on assume the worst hope for the best mode. I do very much doubt it'll happen tbh

On my way to the grave, day by day, month by month and year by year, eventually I will leave this existence for oblivion. Hope it's wrapped up by then.

Investigating does not mean stopping it, I'm amused that due diligence actually happens more than anything but they should check, in case Mansour is just buying everyone with a bunch of convincing pseudonyms

Think of how much better a position we would be in if ashley had bothered investing into a proper academy. He'd have made the money back easy. The man is short term as fuck

Hmmm think arguably this one did, the alternative was a ball flying into the box. Think should be indirect free kick unless the handball blocked a clear goal or a very clear goalscoring opportunity? And maybe if obviously deliberate like batting at the ball with you hand

I thought silence was good as normally it would have been rubbished by now but there have been a few few rumblings from press about them talking a lot but not doing anything and is difficult to know if this is being passed on by the club. I also think ashley probably negotiates off the cuff and had not told most the club what his intentions really are

a) It was hardly a blast, b) Pointing at the full back doesn't constitute the arm being in a natural position c) It was not unavoidable, the arm being where it was puts it at risk I agree that a penalty for that offence is incredibly disproportionate. I agree the law is ambiguous, but by what referees go by, deliberate means the arms not being down y the side essentially. When jumping the arms will flail naturally so there is leeway there but now with feet planted by the sides. The rationale is that your hand has influenced the play, and it's in a position it shouldn't be in. End of. The argument that does carry weight is it being ball to hand, but I don't think it was a ball hit super hard, I think it was clumsy from Sissoko and the fact it hit his chest first furthers the point that he had time to get out the way. Good that they are changing the rules I suppose but doubt they'll do a good job of it, nothing fouls like that should not lead to game changing penalties, unfortunately I don't think the ref really had a choice.

Blimey reddit is a hell hole

I heard Wenger wants a sporting director role rather than management?

I think it's dead

TBh i can feel the 'Ashley calls off sale calls them time wasters' headline coming now

Can't wait for Shola turning up to our champion league victory

I wasn't for locking the thread before but truly it can't sink much lower surely

Tbh at least Rafa is happy

Slept through more than half of it. Didn't realise you were on the pitch!

Mingulet pretending to be involved

Both teams have been very poor. Rubbish final, but both teams to be fair have delivered in the competition until the final. Liverpool were poor to but took their chances, not sure what happened to the spurs team though

Kane should be booked for that dive. Pathetic

Divock Origi is one of those players destined to be a pub quiz question in 10 years time isn't he

Well done liverpool, terrible terrible game, both teams should be ashamed

That henderson shot
