WHEW

A weekend of screamers.

Now that's a nice goal

Barnes what a hit

Ha! Poor Wolves, man.

lolves

Wolves lost and are on the relegation spots? Oh, that's too bad. Poor little tiny Wolves.

Martins doesn't like Wolves?

whats the lore on that?

They huffed and puffed and blew his house down

By Dazenheimer Go To PostMartins doesn't like Wolves?

whats the lore on that?

Too many Portuguese players and Mendes doing deals with them instead of Sporting probably.

Ahahahaha.

By Punished Go To PostThey huffed and puffed and blew his house down

is this true, Martins?

By Dazenheimer Go To PostMartins doesn't like Wolves?

Wolves got back in the Prem by getting heavily involved with Mendes.
I despise Mendes, he's a shit person that tries to control Portuguese football.
The top Portuguese teams can't sell their players to top teams in Europe without Mendes getting a cut, even if he isn't the agent of the player.
There is a reason why almost everyone says that Mendes is the true manager of Portugal's national team.
There are quite a few examples of players that were playing at a high level but weren't being called to the national team, as soon as they become a client of Mendes they would get called up.

Profressional performance. Spurs have arnt clicking in attack. Like everytime theyd have a potrntial overload theyd just recycle possession. Solanke vs Saliba was good as was son vs white. Johnson is the type of winger that bournemouth will buy for 30 million to replace Seymeno when he leaves.

Bournemouth are much better run than that.

He meant West ham

Ahahahaha.

Could've sworn one of the big teams lost 10-0 about a decade ago

Gallagher. Incredible

By Dr3up Go To PostYesss lad.

FF#1, are Barcelona past their LOL stage?

Never in one m8

Alvarez scores his first goal for Atleti.

Spawny, scuffed finish from 3 yards out in the 94th minute to make it 3-0.

we don't talk about that

Is Mendez that big a problem?

By Eisbein Go To Postwe don't talk about that

Still remember when Alves scored seven in the same match #Eredivisie

Well done, it's Monday. Not the best team today. The van de Kerkhof twins were part of the Dutch team in the 70s, they both played in the 1978 final.

Sep 16

Southall is a great inclusion

Proud of the squad, Arteta masterclass.

Just noticed the CL game is scheduled on a Thursday… Wtf.

By FortuneFaded Go To Post

Game’s gone.

I am going to overdose on football this week:

Monday: Argentina - Primera División 2:00pm Barracas Central vs Banfield
Tuesday: UEFA Champions League 12:45pm Juventus vs PSV
3:00pm Milan vs Liverpool
Copa Libertadores 8:30pm Colo-Colo vs River Plate
Wednesday: UEFA Champions League 12:45pm Bologna vs Shakhtar Donetsk
3:00pm Manchester City vs Internazionale
Copa Libertadores 6:00pm Fluminense vs Atlético Mineiro
8:30pm Botafogo vs São Paulo
Thursday: UEFA Champions League 12:45pm Feyenoord vs Bayer Leverkusen
3:00pm Atalanta vs Arsenal
Copa Libertadores 6:00pm Flamengo vs Peñarol
Saturday: Ecuador - Primera A 5:30pm LDU Quito vs El Nacional
8:00pm Deportivo Cuenca vs Barcelona
Sunday: Premier League 9:00am Brighton & Hove Albion vs Nottingham Forest
11:30am Manchester City vs Arsenal

7/15 are on free local tv and/or streaming channels, 2 are on Vix, the remaining 6 I gotta sail the high seas. The remaining 6 used to be part of the same plan on Fanatiz for $10/month or annual plan. However, Ecuadorian league broke away to $15/month no annual just them not including the rest of leagues and tournaments starting this weekend, fuck that. There are 2 Inter Miami games, one on Wednesday night the other on Saturday afternoon which are not included in the list. I expect Messi to sit Wednesday and play Saturday but you never know with him so we'll see. Gotta sail the high seas for his games too cause almost all MLS games are on MLS Season Pass.
The glorious work from home life.

You are missing us playing Spurs in the League Cup on Wednesday.

Morning, lads. Have we lost 3-0 to Coventry yet?

It’s terrible decision making and so damn frustrating considering. I can actually see the improvements there, but my God the attack needs to put a stop to overthinking the simplest of things. We need a 25/26 year old Son on either wing.
I would actually stick Kulu at #10 and start Odobert, replacing Madders and Johnson. Hell, I’d get Dragu on for Romero too. Lad’s been asleep.
Can’t wait to get bukakked by Coventry and Brentford, and Man Utd and Brighton…

Surely, Shaw, Hojlund and Yoro should be on their way back by now...

So, who’s up for the media circus that is Man City vs PL?

I'm ready for a lot of journos tiptoeing their way around it because they're too worried to speak their mind.

Hope the cheating cunts get relegated though.

Everyone knows they're guilty, everyone knows they'll get away with it.

I'm waiting for the massive ramifications

4 point deduction minimum imo

They've got an entire nation state behind them. They'll walk.

The prem is cooked.

By Hitch Go To PostEveryone knows they're guilty, everyone knows they'll get away with it.

What does "get away with it" even mean when there're so many charges?

Cleared of all charges? I highly doubt it.

Reality is we don't have a fucking clue what's going to happen. I think the relegation/demoted option is probably pretty unlikely, i find it weird people have been lazily peddling "nothing will happen" when the PL have actively been handing out points deductions in the last couple of seasons

I don't really see how they avail themselves of most of the obstruction/failure to comply charges. But anyway, not my problem.

There's almost no outcome that wouldn't cause massive ramifications.

I think giving us Haaland would be the fairest outcome.

If the Italian FA can relegate Juve to Serie B, then certainly the English FA can do the same to Man City.

Yeah I don't think it's impossible that city get punished

Now what that punishment is, that's interesting

10 point deduction would make this season really interesting

A massive fine would be a let down

Being found innocent of 115 charges would mean Dan was right

Whether this is to be believed or not the ramifications are massive

By atticus Go To PostI think giving us Haaland would be the fairest outcome.

West Ham fans, man.

markao, pls

Relegated, transfer ban for five years + 40 points deduction, expelled from England.

Didn't realise that Spurs only had 4 wins in 14 games

Lol

How big a chance does “statute of limitations” get brought up…?

It’s horrible, and it’ll only get worse. ☹️

Lol.

None of that is happening.

UK got weapons to sell.
