  1. Norwich with 5 at the back and a midfield formation like a runny egg. TOTAL FOOTBALL
  2. i'd rather Norwich's academy kids be playing, they'd at least be trying
  3. Maybe while he's out there the Norwich physio team could give the team some coffee, smelling salts, methamphetamines...
  4. Good lord is Norwich actually trying to play football today?
  5. I saw you wrote this originally in the past tense and was hopeful, and offended you called us useless turds.
  6. Josh Sargent really doing his all to not make it back into the US national team
  7. They should try possessing the ball in the SHA half maybe
  8. Where is their fan going to steal a DVD player from these days
  9. Planning for next season? ”Fcking Exeter, Away?!”
  10. What's he going to do? His DM and a starting CB had their ligaments turned into shredded wheat, one in game one, the other more than halfway through the season. Going to guess that has some kind of influence upon your goal concession issues. He's not coaching Luiz to get his hands up in defense or make stupid passes.
  11. Their pairing doesn't work, the McGinn-Tielemans pairing does. Tielemans-Luiz wasn't so hot either, but we did okay with it (draw at West Ham, win over Wolves at home). The key is probably that Tielemans isn't there to provide defensive stability in midfield, and neither McGinn nor Luiz can do that job worth a shit. I've not paid enough attention, but if one of them (probably Luiz) has been the one tasked to hold back, that job needs to switch, NOW. If they've both tried the job and it's not working, well, you better go find Mr. Miyagi to work on Tieleman's leg.
  12. Jealous of those of you going tonight. Bring your voice, but leave it there!
  13. Would you call it magisterial? A 1.21 gigawatts strike? A Robin Hood arrow? That flew past Mount Everest/Bomb Disposal Expert Donnarumma in goal?
  14. He is allowed to speak for so long after a goal that the producers clearly think people want to hear this diarrhea of metaphors.
  15. Awesome, the badge hyperbole has infested a second thread.
  16. They now have nothing to play for literally for the rest of the season. They admit it's a 2 horse race and they locked UCL with Spurs' loss. Tools down boys, no need to bring anything on you business trip to Aston week after next. Who wants to work late on a MONDAY, anyway, eh?
  17. Always been a bit of an Arse man, me
  18. We are in European competition next year, guaranteed, and in a European cup semifinal this year. It is not yet May. I get wanting UCL, shit I want it. I really really do. But I'm not going to gnash my teeth and shake my fist at the sky and say we've thrown things away. If Spurs can find a way in the last 6 games they have to overtake us and get 4th, good on them. They've had more funds for quite a while and been in a better position. They didn't have European football this year. We caught them last year in part because they had more fixtures than we did. The future is bright. And making UCL one year ain't the end all be all forever and ever. Again, ask United and Newcastle how their campaigns went this year and what they did afterwards. Keep in mind you'll have to turn around behind you and ask them.
  19. No, you don't understand. It's Champions League this year and the start of the newest Thousand Year Reich, or we might as well all start accepting how rattled we are at the new 60,000 seat sty. There is no room for alternate outcomes, or distinguished points, or even nuance. It's literally all or nothing. Every. Single. Game. I guess you're happy to bend a knee to Tom Brady BUT NOT I, SIR, NOT I
  20. There is one team that has largely consistent results at the end of the season and it only took 115 Charges to build that squad. Past that, everyone is somewhat tired, everyone feels pressure one way or the other, and everyone has to deal with it. I'll say this: other than Martinez, anyone who could likely leave this squad in the summer and says anything about a desire to play CL football is going to ride someone else's coattails to get it.
  21. That Chelsea team at the end had a lot of things, but not their heads. Madueke makes Duran's actions look choirboy-esque.
