Back in the Championship days (a decent win v Bolton) my friends and I took another friend who’d never been to a game before to the Amex. We had been enjoying the refreshments (leathered) and didn’t notice he’d taken his drink into the stand. After two minutes we all stood for an Albion chance...

The only positive thing about that officiating is that it didn’t effect the result. Conscious or subconscious, there’s definitely a bias there, especially when you compare the Foden free kick and the Pedro penalty incidents.

Their music reminded me of my childhood, then the first time I really listened to them was when they headlined (ish) Bergenfest a few years ago. They were absolutely brilliant. Proper festival performance.

With matching striped shorts I presume.

I go back to what he said in presser about a month (or more) ago, when he said he was looking forward to leading a team with March and Mitouma in it again. I don’t think he wants to be judged by his performance this season, and wants another crack at it with here with a fitter squad. Of...

I thought that. Similar to March v Aston Villa.

I’ve seen them not given. Playing against 12 today.

I miss long shots. It’s a dying art. There were much more in the 90s/00s. I feel like more teams are drilled to play risk free football (both defensively and in attack) and the consequences of losing the ball cheaply are higher now that players break away quicker than before. A decent long...

This. I’ve seen them not given.

Don’t we prefer World Cup WINNERS, not runners up?

Very much this. I have an Octavia and very happy with it. I have an estate and the boot is indeed cavernous. Ideal for driving holidays.

Antione Griezman in a preseason friendly against Atletico. Pretty sure he was one of the world’s best players at the time.

…and a bit of justice.

I love watching Havertz. His touch and technique is sublime, but if you don’t surround him with people willing to do the extra running, passing and nitty gritty, you’re f*cked. there’s a reason Tuchel played him up front for Chelsea.

On the reply it didn’t seem lines weee needed. Easy to see he was on.

This. Their only weak link has been Raya, and we haven’t got close to him.

True, although I think it was still one of the harder, if not the hardest group. I’ve been watching the highlights of other games, and large parts of other games live (I have Viaplay here in Norway and they show every match of EL and PL, conveniently), and the quality in the EL, especially the...

Possibly still worth it then.

I honestly thought RDZ was just trying to build the lad’s confidence by comparing him with Gross, but last night showed that he really does have the same knack (footballing intelligence) to pick a pass that gives a teammate plenty of time and space on the ball. His reading of the play is superb...

Good question. There aren’t many teams IN form at the moment. Maybe Liverpool, Villa, Everton and Bournemouth. But it has to be said that keeping us where we are in the table and winning the EL group whilst suffering the injuries we have and trying to replace the players we lost in the...
