Kid Icarus

Can you imagine if our backup central defenders for Botman and Schar were Burn and Lejeune man Outrageous.

That ball to Joelinton on 4 minutes

Do you do this in real life?

Good morning. Yesterday we played Spurs at their stadium where they've won 8 of their last 8 and haven’t lost since May. We beat them 2-1 and went 4th in the league. Due to bad officiating decisions in other matches, we should probably be 3rd, either 3 points behind Man City or level on points.

And what did you learn Martin?

Apologies to Habib Beye, Steve Watson, Barry Venison, Warren Barton, Matt Debuchy, and Daryl Janmaat, but you've all been surpassed by a right back who's only played for us 18 times.

Love how Thomas Frank in that hoodie looks like he sells happy hard-core down the quayside

Nothing better than the first few days after a win like, gonna proper enjoy this.

Shearer was peaking hard there like

The most exciting thing for me is that watching us, I still get the impression that we're still nowhere near our best. The results are still coming, but I can see us playing some jaw-dropping stuff when we get other players back.

Dunno why people care like, it's the difference between the 80% owners being murderous homophobes or being hypocritical, murderous homophobes. Kind of meaningless isn't it.

If Gerrard was still there I'd be 100% sure we'd beat them and beat them well. Without him I feel like it'll be a lot tighter.

I really like that bloke tbh, seems proper canny.

I'll have to watch it again because aside from Bruno going down and not getting a foul, I don't remember him being sloppy.

Funnily enough... From my lass's dad. It's true, he has said it before, he was saying it at the end of last season. I reckon if you asked him who he loves more, Eddie Howe or his sons, there'd be an awkward pause.

I must be blind like, I thought he was the worst of the 3 because of the times he got caught on the ball, but I thought that all 3 played well.

That's the beauty of football right there like. We've all been in both of those positions and know what it's like.

IP tried that Miggy Smalls song years ago iirc. He deserved better and deserved "Matt Debuchy on the right hand side" to get sang as well.

Gets away with so much with being England's main striker, as we witnessed all the time with Shearer. Literally pushed Burn out of play with both hands and the gormless linesman just ignored it and gave them a throw.

Still Rob Lee, but I'd like to see what the difference would be vs inflation because £3m is absolutely ridiculous for Schar.

Aye, incredible. Him and Botman are both very good with their weaker foot.

I think only Toney plays the same sort of role as Wilson (and Kane) out of those 3.

1 misplaced pass aside he was brilliant yet again

It's pizza time
