And that’s the bottom line, cos Stone Cold said so.

That Goncalves goal was pretty special even within the context of long range keeper off the line goals.

Willock, Bruno, Joelinton should be our midfield three.

Fuck off anyone who doesn’t think Miggy is all that.

Missing Joelinton today

Christ sake though

Kieran Slippier

Love watching willock run with the ball.

More Pius XII than Francisco today.

I was never able to find Kinnear anything other than hilarious. That interivew is actually quite sad with hindsight, roughly 18 months later he was diagnosed with early onset dementia. That said 'water off a ducks arse' will never fail to make me smile.

I would want Lambeezy back.

Cliff Richard’s a nonce.

Sports washing machine is inspired.

what separates us from the elite is the quality of playing squad.

A timely reminder of how good the top clubs are.

He could euthanise me and I'd be like, this is just a routine procedure.

Perhaps it's an issue with my use of 'toe to toe'. The games you refer to were certainly more open but we still felt very much front foot first on Sunday but with perhaps less potency both in terms of our press and also our play in the final third. I would have liked to have kept the game tighter for the first half and a lot more awkward for the first 20. I feel like we had the run of the game but without the quality to hurt, in a one off game we'd have been better off trying to counter.

I do feel our toe-to-toe approach with Liverpool and Man United wasn't the best way to go about things. Hindsight is 20/20 but we don't have the players to compete as equals. We've lost those games 4-0. It's fine to have a manager who is committed to having the team play in a certain way but until our players match up we're likely to be exposed. I don't know, certainly in terms of the final feel like a more pragmatic approach might have been the way to go.

He needs a rest.

Also shout out to @Rockerwho just might be the most affable man I’ve ever met.

Huge thanks to @BlazeT44for sorting all of this out and keeping things running smoothly on the day. Great effort from a top bloke. @Mike great to read that post. Tried to buy some orange juice with bits as a homage, but fucked it by picking up smooth.

Karius' ceiling is undoubtedly higher than Darlow's.

I mean that seems like a risky thing to do.

He also set isak up in the second half and hit the post himself

We can beat anyone.
