Paullow Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 Cracking start to the Birmingham vs Leicester match, 1-1 after 14 mins. Brum started really well, but Leicester hit them with a devastating counter attack just after Blues hit the post - a bit like that Deeney-Knockaert scenario a few years ago, but they've just equalised.

Pilko Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 Who invented this "sit on the advertising boards, fold your arms and nod" thing after scoring? Kudus did it the other day and now the Leicester goalscorer just did it. Glad the Leicester scorer was booked, not for leaving the field of play necessarily but for such a shit celebration.

Pilko Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 Been a great game so far this, but if Kieran fucking Dewsbury-Hall is outpacing both your central defenders you're not going to do anything in this league Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Came on here to post this. Great start. Only…didn’t Leicester hit their own post? What a cracking goal just now too. Brilliant game this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astroblack Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 John Ruddy was poor for both those goals. Came out way too early and gave the attackers more time than they should have to choose their finish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paullow Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 I was hoping Birmingham would win, but it has kind of petered out as a contrast once Leicester got that 2nd goal - they've been all over them since. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NUFCDoog Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 Girona winning 3 nil, back to two points clear at the top, 9 points ahead of Barcelona. At the worst they should be in the Champions League next season. Incredible Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemtizz Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 Easy to dismiss Girona because of City but their squad is still average as fuck. Eric Garcia should not be playing CL football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cubaricho Posted December 18, 2023 Share Posted December 18, 2023 1 minute ago, Paullow said: Tottenham have only won 2 League Cups since the start of the Premier League era, they will have nothing at all for over 16 years come February, so if you're a bit under 25 and support them you'll not have seen your team win a trophy in your time, or at least remember it, so if I was a 23 year old Spurs fan and had been into football for 14/15 years, I'd much rather my team had their fortunes in that time with world class players, big signings, Champions League finals, European football pretty much every year, winning far more matches than you lose, strong media presence, always on TV, portrayed as a 'big club', than someone like a Swansea or even Wigan with their one FA Cup in amongst season upon season of dross. Of course winning competitions are important, and I'm sure Middlesbrough, Portsmouth, Swansea, Wigan etc. had amazing nights when they had their one big moment, but you know for us it will still be like 'only 1 trophy in 50 odd years' or whatever, and 'Mickey Mouse', so I'd rather get our house in order, and fully establish ourselves as a top 6 club, ensure we have as much finances as possible to really established a platform, get our squad up to scratch, get rid of the deadwood easier, bring in loads of kids you don't need register in your squad etc. so that in a few years we're in a position to be realistically challenging for 4 trophies every season. They're not mutually exclusive of course, but winning the League Cup and finishing something like 9th or 10th wouldn't be a great season for the club, and assuming the top 5 do get CL, the European (competition) reward for even finishing 6th would be greater than the European reward for winning the EFL Cup. Agreed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JNK Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 (edited) Friday we will have City vs Fluminense for the club WC final, That's the team of the current main Brazil coach, should be an interesting/entertaining massacre from city against the so called relationism People here in Brazil have been comparing his style with Guardiola's for years, truth is appart from liking the ball their teams don't have much in common, still, should prove a interesting watch of opposing styles with very different player levels (fluminense has Marcelo, Felipe Melo and a 43y/o keeper) Edited December 20, 2023 by JNK Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
