By Xpike Go To Postis ashley just hoping someone buys the club from him before he relegates it tonthe championshipYep.
By Perfect Blue Go To PostLmao VAR for a foul that happened a good 15 seconds earlier. Joke sport
It's a joke. Almost as stupid as what happened in th atalanta game the other day
So long before the goal.... Two crosses too before the goal finally happens. Premier league var 🤡

In a way. In his eyes he's already sold the club to the Saudis, but oviously that deal has been blocked by the PL. He has gone all in though on trying to force that through, we have two seperate court cases against the Premier League, an anti-competition case which had it's first hearing this week, and an arbitration case which is in the first week of January. Sole purpose of that one is to get an independant legal ruling on whether the Saudi PIF and the Saudi state can be considered two seperate legal entities. If the ruling goes in our favour, it could...could open the door to the deal again.
Problem is....I don't think we've got a good chance of winning the legal cases...and even if we did, by the time everything was sorted we might already be a championship club which I very much doubt the Saudis would want.
Meanwhile, there is still football to be played, and we are playing it extremely badly.
Timo is cursed, poor bastard.
We've sounded good on the radio - RLC and CHO seem to be having good games. Lovely to see Chalobah score as well.

Not sure if it says a lot about Loftus cheek or the usual starters, that he is improving the midfield every time he plays
Also yeah nice to see odoi finally having a good game again

Bit of column A, bit of column B imo.
Playing CHO further up and not as a wing-back seems to be working, who knew.
On the way back from the game. Football is a miserable pastime.
Everton were fucking shocking, but we didn’t deserve anything else either. No signs of light at the end of the tunnel without a major change.

marcus as manager imo
Look at Chelsea, in full control.
You know they've been drilled with a game plan.
No Cross and inshallah for these lads.

Which is an absolute joke, talk about picking and choosing who gets to climb the ladder.

The team badly needs him, cant come back soon enough.
3-0 down at half time to a team who havent won in eight games lol
absolutely fucking bottled it from the first minute. aye its fucking wet but christ, Portsmouth have managed to find a way to play. We haven't even tried.
Canny worrying tbh, because there'll be more afternoons like this over the next four months.

Well if the CAT case gets the go-ahead, that'll all come out publically. Which is a good thing for football as a whole, it'll strengthen the calls for an independant regulator which the game really needs.
PL working extremely hard to ensure that it doesn't come out though, they tried very hard to stop the preliminary hearing live stream this week.
Chelsea look like such a capable team. I’ll be shocked if they don’t finish as champions or runners up.

You are right that our coach is much worse than the other 3, but this too I'd quibble with.
Is De Gea better than Alisson, Ederson or Mendy?
- No, no, maybe.
Is Wan-Bissaka better than Alexander-Arnold, Walker, or Azpilicueta?
- No, no, no.
Are Maguire and Varane better than Van Dijk and Matip, Laporte and Dias, and Silva and Rudiger?
- Maybe, maybe, probably.
Is Shaw better than Robertson, Cancelo and Alonso?
- Maybe, maybe, yes.
Are Bruno/Fred/McTominay better than Thiago/Henderson/Fabinho, Rodri/Gundogan/De Bruyne, and Kante/Jorginho/Mount?
- No, no, no.
Is Greenwood better than Salah, Torres and Werner?
- No, maybe, probably.
Is Ronaldo better than Firmino, Jesus and Lukaku? (and extra question: does he fit with the team's profile more?)
- Probably, yes, maybe (but no, no, no).
Is Rashford better than Mane, Grealish and Havertz?
- No, maybe, maybe.
I think Liverpool still have the strongest first XI in the league but the weakest depth of the top 4.
I actually wish our first XI was Matic/McTom/Bruno, Greenwood/Sancho/Rashford. but alas
lol Chilwell - Tuchel hates him
lol Chilwell - Tuchel hates him
By domino Go To Postdamn he crushed that pen
Also city and Liverpool first 11 are comfortably better than ours
Think that our CB pairing and LB are arguably the best in the league (on paper for Mags/Varane anyway), and Bruno one of the best players in the league, but other than that...
By Daz Go To PostHard to compare our first 11 with others when the coach can't get the best out of them.
Agreed, but I'd be surprised if anyone thought DDG, AWB, Fred or McTom were better players than those at our rivals
I can see why it'd be given as a red i suppose, but lack of consistency really across refs and games. City should have had a red the other day
By n8 dogg Go To PostAgreed, but I'd be surprised if anyone thought DDG, AWB, Fred or McTom were better players than those at our rivalsI would definitely make an argument for AWB, and DDG.
By Daz Go To PostI would definitely make an argument for AWB, and DDG.
In what world is AWB better than Azpi and Walker? They can defend and attack lol
By Daz Go To PostI would definitely make an argument for AWB, and DDG.I’d change the subject if someone hit me with an AWB agenda. Unserious
