Placed a couple accumulaters in a hurry this weekend on the PL and CL matches. 3 of those were looking promising now before I discovered the mistake I made. I thought Man City was playing BSC Young Boys on tuesday - turns out to be Man Utd.. Included this game in all the accas with a -3 handicap for Man Utd

I've mocked him plenty, but he looks so good in central midfield as a box to box player. Amazingly enough I don't think we ever used him that way, which is more the role he originally had at Toulousse.

Great composure from Sane

Looking forward to the Netflix series. Only 3 weeks away now. Really interested to see how its done as its made by sunderland supporters (right?). No doubt they will try to glorify the town and supporters, but it will be a near impossible task given how their season went and the toxic atmosphere. Wonder if they included that butt-head lookalike who took a shit in their own stadium.

I think the Everton goal is my favourite due to the happiness it brought me. Just promoted, doing better than expected with such a shit squad(crushing Villa who had sent us down) and had signed the wonderkid HBA (although just on loan at the time I think we all kinda knew he would stay due to the way he pushed Marseille to letting him go). Thought our fortunes had turn and we would eventually get competitive again. How wrong was I

Should never be his own lawyer

Always difficult to compare players from different eras. Back in the days you'd be looked upon as Messi if you could pull off the Cruyff-turn, which even a Steven Taylor on crutches could do today. However, these players were pioneers so its likely that they would go on to be equally influental today if they grew up in the new "football environment". Also, how do people weigh a player's team and how many clubs the player's have performed well for when comparing players? If we do the Zidane vs Iniesta or Ronaldo vs Messi discussion, it should be clear that its been easier for Iniesta and Messi as they've been comfortable for many years in a team shaped by Pep (also having a stabile core in the team over the years), whilst Zidane and Ronaldo have done their thing during many club changes. Not to take anything away from the godlike skills of Iniesta/Messi.

Fucking hell. They just can't seem to help themselves. £80k a week FFS. Out of contract 31 year old currently serving a ban for doping. So West Ham When will they learn? Theyre like us before we went down the first time. Signing over the top players on high wages.

From disallowed Mitro goal to a Salah goal in 10 sec. I took out Mitro on fantasy and Salah is my captain this round so this was a proper DEENEY moment

It was a great game for a neutral watcher. Pretty nerve wracking for us the 2nd half, especially considering we have a track record of wasting a 2-0 lead. I think the defence was good considering we were meeting Bournemouth who are the 4th highest scoring team in the league. Although, I think we were a bit lucky on two occasions not to give away a penalty (Schar and Fernandez). However, we could and should have scored more goals and also gotten a penalty. Hope we can keep the form up going into what has to be considered a comfortable set of games. Imagine if Kenedy would have scored that pen v Cardiff and we would have drawn at least two of those losses against the top teams. Its a bit difficult to enjoy the victories mind. I was kinda resigned before the Watford game, hoping that we would get relegated, MA would spend some money to bounce back but fail to do so and finally being pressed out of the club. Now we can only live in the hope that someone will buy us before Rafa leaves

Thats only a risk if you also have Salah in your team

Shouldve been Perez coming off

Rondon suits the team really well. Perez is invisible

Probably a much needed wakeup call for Juventus. They cant miss chances like this in the knock out rounds. Imagine if Juventus would beat PSG in the final. Buffon would never forgive himself for leaving

Double own goal

Classic Mata

What a goal from Ronaldo!

Well pards used him as a centre midfielder and he was still our most advanced player on the pitch

Its just so entertaining to watch Man City

Really need Aguero to do some magic against Spurs now. Knew I shouldve capped Mane

Had Robertson as a captain for a solid hour before I changed to Aguero. Thank god for that

Hate it when refs stops the play just before a corner kick to yell at someone in the box. Why not just wait for the corner kick to be taken and if he sees something then give a freekick or pen?

What a goal

How the fuck do you make such a retarded mistake? Learn how to doublecheck your shit or fail in life

Odds on Josh Murphy scoring a hat trick?
