Kid Icarus

Keep forgetting that Man City are actually canny shite

They need to win it really so I'm expecting this to be our most difficult match since the EFL Cup Final against Liverpool that we won 2-1 on the 16th March 2025.

The x-factor bit sticks in my mind like. Can't work it out, Miley plays in a holding role but despite that has played quite a few passes that have had the crowd loving it, including assists, line splitting passes, and he's scored a few times too. All at Premier League and Champions League level. He was fantastic away to PSG especially. And he's 18 with loads to learn.

Ah okay, couldn't tell if it was a homage or a rip off. Either way you should be ashamed of yourself.

Is the joke that they're doing the Mitchell and Webb thing?

It also had the defence of being targeted at Adam Johnson and Sunderland rather than using the victim as the subject/butt of 'a joke', all while plenty of them were singing "he shags who he wants" and posting about how "she knew what she was doing" while their club continued to field an accused paedophile.

Hope you smashed the place up because that's absolute bollocks.

Watching other clubs podcasts where we're featured is mad like. Basically they hype us more than we do.

They're right like. It's funny though because I see the same level of obviousness with how to beat Villa. Contain their possession then hit them on the break when their back four's on the halfway line.

Imo that makes it more impressive Best save like that I've ever seen was Pickford against Colombia and it was going wide.

Midday ffs

Could be wrong here but I think we're on the same points as at this stage in 22/23 now. It's down as -3 but technically game 25 (Brighton at home) was postponed and didn't actually happen until the end of May.

Brentford 1-0 Brighton Palace 2-1 Bournemouth Everton 0-2 Man City West Ham 2-0 Southampton Villa 2-2 Newcastle Fulham 1-2 Chelsea Ipswich 0-2 Arsenal Man United 1-1 Wolves Leicester 0-3 Liverpool Spurs 1-2 Forest Man City 2-0 Villa Arsenal 2-0 Palace

I get the feeling Miley's in his Hall 23/24 season and will come to the fore as a regular rotation player next season. Without injuries last season we'd have hardly seen him and know what he's capable of. Do think we'll sell him eventually though due to this utterly backwards PSR situation.

All market triangulation to try and be like the YouTube watchalong lot innit. Reeks of when corporations and brands try to get in on things that whether we like them or not were people-drivem things to start out with. History usually tells us that when it gets to that point, people are turned off by it and move onto something else that'll end up in the same position.

Aye, it's more a defence of the CL really. The Europa is entertaining because of the drama but like you say the quality isn't there to the same extent and that's a big part of the entertainment for me. The CL doesn't always have both, but it quite often does in the latter stages I reckon. It's part of the reason I dislike Real Madrid so much, because they're always sniffing about and the matches they're not getting beaten in are nearly all absolutely honkin'

I think there's a certain generation and older that remember how good, competitive and important the UEFA Cup was before the Champions League was expanded, and now kind of balk at the idea of the Europa League being something to laud. It hasn't felt the same since about 1998 and its importance and overall quality has never recovered. The Champions League is still often brilliant and hoys up the highest quality and most dramatic football going. It's lulled recently because imo Real Madrid's somehow-still-win-despite-being-awful routine, combined with them being a hateful club has absolutely stunk out the competition, as well as being post-Messi/prime Barca, but it's not in a fixed state of being inherently boring like, that's frankly just bollocks.

Tbf they're trying their best.

When it's not a club that everyone hates maybe

That's a foul man Absolute fucking fix this Actually nah it's not.

Who could have possibly seen this coming. Rancid cunts

What a surprise

Still refuse to celebrate yet, it's too perfect. It's like when Cartman saw the people with arses for faces.

If it panned down to the tactics board and Amorim was just eating Skittles one by one.

I refuse to celebrate yet
