  1. Liverpool stuff really bothered me but weirdly I'm calmer on this even though lots more riding on this game. Maybe it's because just very happy with how the squad have dealt with horrendous injury we have no right to be even drawing away at psg. Maybe it's because the real damage to our qualifying campaign were the games against Dortmund particularly the home one. That's where any regrets should lie.
  2. The whole point of VAR was to stop mistakes and it isn't. It just isn't.
  3. If we go out (and i think dortmund already through are unlikely to try too hard vs psg tbh) it was due to the dortmund at home game, as frustrating as that robbery was 1-1 away in paris is objectively a good result. We should not have lost at home. Oh well, was always going to be really hard even before our injuries
  4. Murphy isn't a Milner type he can do right wing pretty well as it turned out and right back adequately but not great. If we signed a new star RW player and kept Miggy (may be cashed in for FFP I guess which would make me sad but may be time) I don't imagine there would be great need to keep Murphy. He would be more likely to be useful RB cover for if Trippier and Tino both were unavailable than to get another sniff at right wing. I imagine he will be sold if right offer comes in and if he ends up playing in defensive midfield I will jump in the Tyne shouting Rishi Sunak is an excellent prime minister
  5. Ummmm, I hate to break it to you all but if you are watching along the match and commenting on here continually that is exactly the same sort of communal watching experience really just this is a little more old fashioned
  6. Blimey don't remember him winning the golden Boot, did that surprisingly under the radar!
  7. If he wants to stay should let him, would respect him wanting to go and play. I imagine the club will be looking at a 3rd top class CB to compete with Schar so he may not get minutes but he is a big voice in dressing room and could see him moving into the coaching setup or something.
  8. What is the point of VAR for decisions that are clearly right, just by eye clearly onside ffs why wait for the line
  9. Timothy Chalomet scores for Villa
  10. Spurs have been better but one can't help but feel one goal is going to be nowhere near enough. It;s absolute classic case of if spurs score next they will probably score more as villa will have to push even higher, if villa score could be anyones game
  11. I still think VAR should be like cricket or tennis where each side has limited number of appeals each half and lose an appeal if unsuccessful. (hell maybe just 1 each half). Then the officials spending 4 minutes on a decision doesn't feel so bad as will be rarer. Only issue I can foresee is with benches having video angles that would lead them to be able to appeal with too much information, so would have to be a rule has to be quick after a decision before any replays can be run
  12. nailed on 0-0 this at this rate somehow hahaha
  13. how are spurs not ahead hahahaha

    In memoriam

    Linekar talks of him really glowingly as a human being on rest is football quite a lot, RIP
  15. Koulibally was hyped for years as a great defender (and I am sure he was) so was quite funny to see him finally arrive in the league and look utterly hopeless. Really probably unfair thats how he will be remembered by a lot of people lol
