Miercoles

Can we talk about his run into the opposition area today, leaving a trail of absolute carnage in his wake One defender flattened, a physio on for their captain, and I think we even got a corner of of it. You have to fucking love it.

I don't think it was a foul, I think it was a dive. I'm just surprised the ref didn't give it. Maybe because it's Wolves.

I think one thing that adds to his value and gets overlooked is his consistency in fitness, he's played almost every minute of every game this season and hasn't slowed down at all. Even if he's not your best player, having someone who is useful and available for every single minute of the season is really valuable when you're setting your lineup each week. Death, taxes, and Sean Longstaff busting balls for 90 minutes.

Great addition to the Wilson Fucking With Goalkeepers highlight reel today, just blatantly trips the keeper while he's running out to throw the ball Somebody with access to the footage really needs to make a compo of all the shit Wilson does to these poor keepers.

Amazed it wasn't given, but I also think it's fair not to. There is contact but you can also see the Wolves player take a horribly heavy touch and decide to go down. He would have had a lot to do just to catch up to the ball if he doesn't go down there.

Fair play to the people who wanted to bring him on, thought he had a very solid game.

How the hell did we get scheduled for Sunday night and then the following Friday?

Watching the highlights from Liverpool trying to imagine our team ever getting that penalty call...

I keep thinking the referee is a goalkeeper in this video.

I was all geared up to try to get back into MLS this season, even though my local team (quakes) has been shit for twenty years. Then I see they paywalled it, jeeeeesus. As if I'm going to pay monthly for it like the MLB for as Mickey mouse league, get to fuck man.

Yeah I don't think he's loafing it, I just think he's lost some edge. We are also providing him absolutely no service, of course.

Hard to believe that's a real guy that really did that, in front of a camera, dead serious, and with zero self awareness

I feel like that's an all-time great documentary, even from a non-football fan perspective. One of those gems like Icarus where they are setting out to film something different and just happen to capture an absolute shit-show in complete detail, you could never get that kind of material on purpose so it's like gold in my opinion. I mean just the scene where they're talking about the pre-game music, holy fuck that is a worldy https://youtu.be/p4bORXW9xeU

I don't find it too far fetched that he has a bit of a world cup hangover. He gave everything he had and played out of his mind to make that team, then didn't get to play much at all even in games were he could arguably have been a useful change. It's got to be hard to finally achieve one of your biggest life's dreams and career goals, not get to play, and then come back to your day job and give it 100%. Would never suggest he's intentionally giving less than 100% mind, just that I wouldn't be surprised if he's a bit down in general after that experience.

Not sure you remember what life was like when we actually were starting Murphy

Nothing he could do about either goal.

...You want to start Murphy?

Watching it stone sober at 8:30am with my wife and toddler, going to be a hell of an atmosphere over here!

Maybe I'm too American for that shit, I dunno. Seems like 100% board-certified Wank to me. I don't want to hate too much on people that enjoyed it, and I guess an FA Cup final is a bigger deal than League Cup, but still... Reminds me of a saying that gets used a lot in Baseball, "Act like you've been there before."

Did we really have a fucking parade for losing a final before? Jesus Christ what a dire idea that is

I can't wait for this to be over

I dunno, I watched the clip a couple times and I feel like you could argue he slipped and the handling was unintentional ? Maybe file it at the absolute last minute so they don't have time to process it? Really this is better, the hope was killing me anyway.

Would an appeal delay the suspension? That's an old NFL trick at least...

I was dying when he says (of West Ham) "So you're trying to play football now, you just don't have the players for it?"

Any idea what time this will be on? Hoping for "before my family wakes up" haha
