Virtua Stiva

I’m not taking anything for granted against an injury riddled Spurs after that game over Xmas where they had 14 injuries or something and still almost got a point off us.

Howay man

Lad that gets all the team news reckons he’s done his ACL in training today

Just dawned on me that Dyche probably got the job because he’s the only other manager that’s ever got double figures out of Chris Wood

Aye, consistently shite

“The referee hasn’t done too much wrong tonight”

I wish I could watch football without constantly swearing at these fuckers but they won’t save me from this torment

Dopey cunts like this twat refereeing the World Cup final about sums the state of it all up

Harper has a masters in Sports Directorship so he has the qualifications, at the very least. Shola just has a job to keep him busy

It’ll take absolute years to catch up and to start pumping out good youngsters, I’m afraid. I’d also argue that experiences like this and youth football aren’t all about results. It’s about player development first

He’s been so invisible, everyone has just assumed he’s been on the bench

Klopp made a similar complaint about teams setting up to frustrate them. They certainly have a type in their managers

We’re crying out for a Caicedo type IMO. Maybe we can sign that Baleba who spent all of the first half trying to flatten Joelinton for £120 million

They’ve beaten Man City this season I think everyone is genuinely underestimating the Welbeck effect. Defoe was that much of a threat to us that it was the only reason Sunderland signed him

Two shots for Welbeck and two goals. Until that fucker retires, we could turn up and be 10/10 across the pitch and they’d still get a result

Their lads spent about 2 minutes on the deck in that added time and Burn got booked for having the cheek to point it out Can someone relieve me from this torment

Paddy McAloon is a Newcastle fan. There’s a radio interview where he starts talking about Micky Quinn scoring for us that afternoon

“Anti-Sunderland flags” my brother, it is simply time to log off

Will probably mean that we see a bit more of Krafth who is generally dependable.

ITV produced a whole montage about Rashford, obviously assuming he’d start tonight and are now upset that he’s not so the narrative has to be how Gordon isn’t really doing enough to keep him out. Rashford will come on and flatter to deceive as per

Bernard did fine until Robert short circuited his brain

It’s more of an “expectation of basic competence” that they have routinely failed to meet for about 5 seasons now. If this is genuinely their mindset off the back of some justified criticism of some fucking mind-bending decisions, then things will never improve

I’m not saying Wales are any great shakes but they can’t even get the ball here. Impressive stuff from England

Second half was much better but that felt like a Forest performance you’d get from a manager desperate to keep his job. Turn it into a scrap, dive, kick, whinge and just generally keep the ref whistling to scrap a draw. Great when tactics like that don’t come off

Piss poor. Would blow for the slightest bit of non-contact but gladly ignored every bit of shirt pulling and grabbing. A bizarre mindset.
