What happened? Did the vid get removed? He was out on the lash for freshers week (first year uni students) and took a lass back to his, and she snap chatted the whole thing. Don’t really care about the girl but why is he going out getting smashed this early into the season? Rafa would have bollocked him and dropped him Not sure that's completely true like. I was over for a game in the championship season and saw Shelvey, Clark and Daryl Murphy out on a Sunday after a game Were they out getting wrecked? I just don't think its very professional for a 28 year old footballer to be out with a bunch of 18 year olds getting smashed when we are in the s*** this season. Nolan, Barton did it the season we went down. Paul Dummett being 28 is amazing Feels like he's about 24. It's a bit creepy more than anything else to be trying to pull an 18 year old at that age. I don't think Dummett would be near the Premier League if he wasn't a great professional and Rafa's comments on the previous page back that up.

That's the fault of the linesman
-
An interesting point made by Clattenburg on the offside calls is that linesmen are told not to flag for close decisions so the VAR kind of has to overturn decisions that are close as we don't know if the lino thought it was offside or not

Have we had more possession or shots than the opposition in any game this season?

Nobody said just because it's a custom it should be immune from criticism. However, if we are going to criticise something in a different culture we should perhaps look at a bit of context first. For the "blacking up" example Wullie made, why should that be seen as racist in Spain based on something that was happening in a different country with a different language and culture years and years ago? For the Bilbao players referring to Inaki Williams as "darkie" why is that any different to nicknames based on something else in a person's physical appearance? It's only different because we have been taught that it's different, there is nothing inherently wrong with a nickname based on the colour of someone's skin, no moreso than a nickname based on somebody's height, etc. I mean there definitely is a difference. No one was ever hung or persecuted based on their height. That comparison doesn’t work at all To someone who is from an English speaking country it doesn't

That's obviously massively racist like

Aubameyang has won Arsenal all 11 of their points this season
-
If he was going to try to get him sent off why did he not react to the "stamp"
-
West Ham and Leicester should really be fighting for a CL spot this season
-
Noble is a bit underrated IMO. Wilshere's had a good impact too
-
What a free kick
-
Fred is so weird. World beater to worst player of all time in the space of a few seconds
-
Feel like Mata hadn't done anything decent in years
-
West Ham team is better than Man Utd IMO
-
ASM is class
-
Aaron Connolly winner would be great
-
We've still created as much as them mind
-
Get big mad Andy on at half time for the craic
-
A well coached team against a not at all coached team
-
Gross is canny

So unfair if Brighton don't win this
-
This Brighton or Man City we're playing?
