  1. Pel for Liverpool. I may have called this wrong Milner scores
  2. Think PSG will win this. Liverpool probably better so far but think PSG look a bit slicker going forward
  3. Liverpool PSG should be canny. Hope Neymar shows up
  4. Inter pressing is very good but not creating much
  5. Its almost like there’s different timezones in central and Eastern Europe
  6. Carr was very good at what he did
  7. West Ham are a great watch. Absolutely incapable of tightening up at the back
  8. Beautiful goal. Ref will be buzzing with that advantage
  9. Nobody moans quite like the Goodison crowd
  10. I think this Balbuena centre half for West Ham is canny
  11. Feel like the whole forum is like this now. Even after a game the player threads for almost every player would be bumped before with comments on them and loads of debate. Nobody really cares that much anymore it seems and you can't blame them
  12. Ronnie scores from an inch out to get his first Juve goal. Classic
  13. Was going to post that. Absolutely outrageous
  14. I don’t think he’s good but he’s one of our better players at the moment
  15. Pretty obvious point but Eddie Howe is doing such a good job. Should probably get more of a chance with the bigger jobs
  16. Hearts five points clear in Scotland with Celtic and Rangers having to deal with the Europa League for the next few months...
  17. Thought Yedlin was decent too, Ritchie was decent first half but not much he could do second half with how much Arsenal dominated
  18. If they are unfit they shouldn't even be on the bench and Rondon certainly didn't seem unfit during the week. Eh players come back from injury and onto the bench all the time. Like literally all the time. I don’t know what condition Rondon and Shelvey are in, I’m just assuming there’s legitimate reasons they were on the bench and then never came on. There’s multiple reasons why that could have happened. So why are they on the bench if you're not fit you're not fit and why not bring them on then. If they're fit enough to be on the bench then their fit enough to play the majority of the game. I can understand not the full 90 but to not even bring them on is just totally inexcusable. They were probably on the bench in case we were down one goal with 10 or 15 minutes to go. When Arsenal went two up Rafa probably felt that the risk of bringing them on wasn't worth it when we probably wouldn't get back into the game anyway Still doesn't work for me as I said you have nearly a full house paying good money to see a manager accepting a defeat. What happens if he brought them on say with 15 mintues to go (I will still argue with anybody they should have started) and they get a goal and the match then changes. It might not but surely people paying good money deserve to see a team attempting to get something out of any game. Rafa isn't about entertaining the fans, he's about getting results and he probably thought that keeping those two players fresh and injury free was more beneficial than putting them on for 15 minutes when it probably wouldn't change anything and they might get injured again Don't agree sorry that team selection and lack of substitutes stinks you say it's about getting results well it certainly isn't working this season that's for sure. Well like its impossible for anyone here to know what condition Rondon and Shelvey were in
