Massive Facebook da vibes.

This Chelsea - Arsenal game is the epitome of a massive cunt off. Compulsive viewing.

Has anyone ever had 2 points after 13 games? It’s mental really as you wouldn’t say Wolves are that bad.

Doubt he would have selected either over Tino or Burn yesterday tbh.

Pickford hopefully.

I don’t quite know how, but eventually Eddie comes up with a formation involving him and Wissa and we’re unstoppable.

He was the lad that used to try finishes like that and dink it straight into the keeper’s chest.

He’ll celebrate by watching about 8hrs of Spurs footage.

The King.

Frimpong assuming he’s fit?

Miley’s minutes are absolutely fine for his age.

Wait til you find out where North Durham Academy is…

Yep, our best two performing CB’s this season have been Thiaw and Burn, and by a distance.

Fulham have got three Nigerian players, so I wouldn’t mind if all the AFCON teams decided they wanted their players before the 17th.

Who have Man Utd sacked that won the league?

Don’t think there’s much allegedly about it…

Went off with a hamstring problem. Slot said yesterday it wasn’t that bad, but still sounds like he’ll miss at least the next 2 or 3.

Well, I suppose they can’t physically make you play, if you really don’t want to, they can just stop you playing for a club side at the same time. I think we’re all probably guilty of looking too much into this. Although the rule does exist, it’s really not going to be enforced in anything other than extreme circumstances (yes, Makelele etc etc). Tbh, can’t wait for a couple of weeks time when they name the squads and we know one way or the other.

Have they tweaked anything in relation to teams from the same country playing each other?

In theory, it should never really happen once the player decides he’s retiring from international football, as it serves no real purpose, apart from maybe trying to force them to change their mind on the retirement. But it is technically a FIFA rule that can be imposed (or at least it was, as seen with Makelele). It’s obviously a bit different if, using Wissa as an example, he said I want to miss the AFCON but still play in the WC playoff and subsequent finals. As I say though, it should never really get to that point with sensible discussion.

If they picked him and he refused to play they could theoretically block him playing club football for the duration of the tournament. However that’s a fairly nuclear option, and you’d like to think everybody involved would have sensible discussions before it reached that point. It’s not in our interests to piss Congo off, and it’s not in Congo’s interests to piss Wissa off.

Who knows? But I imagine Eddie’s going to get questioned about it at every presser from now until the squads get announced.

Hopefully. They’ve also got Strasbourg away the weekend after, which isn’t quite the cakewalk many of their league games are.

I’d heard of people passing it on to ST’s to family members, usually as a result of a death, but it’s interesting that you can seemingly nominate someone to officially take over the ST at any point.

To be fair, that video, whilst obviously the centre piece, was gloriously added too, with the other videos on the thread - the convo after the deed, the scrapping with the coppers and him dancing about shirtless off his nut in the square. All in all, it was a genuine masterpiece of the genre.
