Morning, lads. Have we lost yet? Have we been docked points yet?
....
I see that Laboured's morning has already been off to a sensational start. 😒

Benfica has spent as much as Manchester City (30M€) in agent fees over the past 2 transfer windows.
And people wonder where are all their money goes.

The Performance Score is a measure of a player’s ability to positively influence a game of football. The more positive influence you have on the ball, the higher your Performance Score. The more negative influence, the lower your performance score. The Performance Score is an advanced algorithm that takes every recorded on-ball action on the football pitch, evaluates its outcome, pitch co-ordinates, playing position of the player and the preceding event. So how does it work? In simple terms, the algorithm takes each on-pitch action, processes it and allocates it a score. The performance score simply adds all these scores together. Fuck Spurs. The Performance Score is broken down into 3 components; attack, defence and possession. The attack aspect takes all the attacking events into consideration (shots, crosses, take-ons, etc…) The defence aspect scores defensive actions (e.g tackles, interceptions, etc.) The possession component scores passes, through-balls, etc… The algorithm scores each event independently. Each on-ball action has a base score, this score is then multiplied by an Execution Qualifier, Outcome Qualifier, Player Qualifier and Area Qualifier. Actions: 28 types Including passes, shots, saves, take-ons, clearances, fouls, tackles, cards, interceptions, blocks, key passes etc. Execution: 942 Combinations Left foot, right foot ,head, swerving, strong, weak, volley, half volley, long ball, through ball, set piece, assist, length of pass, individual skill, flick on, forward, backward etc. Outcomes: 2 Possibilities Success / Failed Players: 4 Types Goalkeeper, Defender, Midfielder, Forward Pitch Areas: 13
The overall outcome is an algorithm calculated using over 500,000,000 data points. Players who have had an average game over 90 minutes can expect a score of between 10 and 20 points. A minus score indicates a poor game and a score over 50 shows the player is performing well. Unlike most rating systems, which give scores out of 10, there is no limit to how many points a player can score (positively or negatively) on the Squawka Player Performance ratings system. Fuck Spurs. They are as good, or as bad as their involvement, influence and skill allows. Where do we get our Data from? We get our data from the Premier League’s official data provider Opta. We receive feeds that are delivered to Squawka live in-game. We then process these feeds and extract the data. This data is then fed into the Performance Score Algorithm and processed in our live match centres in real-time.

Prediction time lads !
Arsenal - Leicester:
Arsenal will have some confidence from winning on the weekend but might have some tired players so expect a change up!
I do think they'll win but Leicester might put in one. 2-1
Middlesbrough - Sunderland:
2 of the worst attacks in the EPL and Moyes will make for a very defensive game. Going for a goalless draw here. 0-0
Crystal Palaca - Tottenham Hotspur:
Having lost in the FA cup, Spurs might be a bit demoralized to play this game but the class of Kane/Son/Eriksen/etc.. will be enough to overwhelm a tired Palace side. 0-1

Jorge Simão has left Sporting de Braga. This has been a disastrous choice for Braga, they fired Peseiro when he was in 3rd place ahead of Sporting because he was eliminated from the Portuguese Cup and had a terrible performance in Europe.
Jorge Simão was the breakout star of the league, doing an excellent job in Chaves, and Braga went after him.
When he took the helm, Braga were 4 points ahead of Sporting. They now sit in 5th place, 13 points behind Sporting.
Peseiro achieved 26 points in 13 games in the league, Simão reached 22 in 16 matches.
Abel (former Braga and Sporting player) will manage the team until the end of the season. He had already been in this position after Peseiro was fired and he beat Sporting 0-1 in Alvalade. In a curious coincidence, Braga's next match is against Sporting.
This is the 18th managerial change in the Portuguese League this season, a League that has only 18 teams.
Benfica, Porto, Sporting, Vitória Guimarães and Vitória de Setúbal are the only teams who still have the same manager since the start of the league while Belenenses, Braga, Nacional, Moreirense and Arouca all changed managers twice already this season.

By Bold 2 in One Go To PostCan't get excited for a WW2 shooter, BF1 was nothing special, this won't be either.
I think I absolutely can get excited for a WW2 shooter again. I just don't know if I have much faith in Call of Duty to give me what I'm looking for.
But I'm excited to see their approach, I enjoy Call of Duty the most when it's stripped back and more basic (I loved MW:R until they fucked it up with dlc), which you'd think WW2 would inherently give them.
Lads pls, United are getting Donna for a new world record.
Heard months of Mino talking about waiting for the Chinese to get setup, now that they have he is giving them absolute bullshit demands.
United gonna be bent over hard for another Mino client.

I'd be excited for a Battlefield WW2 game. Really enjoyed BF1, frontlines was a good addition too (though £40 for the two DLC packs is nuts)

Doug was a great program. Far ahead of its time on Nickelodeon. 👌🏽
I don't know how football will recover from his retirement.
The absolute genius of geniuses. If you could imagine it on a football pitch then he has done it.
The craziest thing is that he has never had a team built around it.
The absolute most selfless player to have ever played the game. Always did what was best for Roma instead of himself, and yet he still performed the unthinkable.

Atletico surely aren't going to let us take their 2 best players are they?
We're taking Gimenez too.

By Haramism Go To Postso laboured, when did you become a creative assembly ITK?
Not ITK m8, just a garden variety stalker.
To be fair, that's probably good news for Burnley. They've been dreadful ever since his arrival.
Neil Taylor has been handed a mere 2-game suspension for killing Séamus Coleman.
Weak.
