God he's 29. Where have those years gone? 

 

Wait Brad Guzan is only 39?

Reckon he's fudged his wiki page because he looks and moves like he's due a free bus pass.

Jfc I hope some of you never see the things your other half likes on socials, they'd come home to find four walls covered in pins and string.

He's a 20 year-old multi-millionaire who kicks a ball between two sticks for a living. I was skint at 20 and if you analyised 1% of what I did you'd probably have said I was destined for a life in prison. And I was one of the better behaved ones.

I know there's a temptation to put 100% weight on what's public, but keep in mind it's 0.000001% of his time that you're actually seeing.

Wonder if there's any chance of fifth getting CL again next season.

And so it begins.

Here is how I see the race: 

Man City - Settled and strong.
Arsenal - Settled and strong 
Liverpool - No Klopp, new manager, not stable, unpredictable. 
Villa - Settled and will get stronger 
Chelsea - Finished strongly, more settled. Will be our biggest contenders for 4th.
Newcastle- They're strong at home, if they keep their best players they will challenge
Spurs - Ange interview yesterday was odd, seems unsettled club.
Man United- Not worried about them,
Bournemouth- Dark Horses
Brighton - Not worried about them 

 

Bournemouth will be nowhere near the top 4.  Would be more worried about West Ham, and I'm not worried about West Ham.

For us, good showing in UCL, run in either cup and top 5 would be an achievement.

Spurs 101st minute equalizer would be delicious.

Score prediction for the Spurs v Burnley game? I'm going for 3-1 Spurs

Heart says Burnley win, Luton win at West Ham and Forest get beat by Chelsea. Makes Burnley v Forest the perfect final game of the season with Luton playing a beatable Fulham.

Head says draw and Burnley down, with Luton and Forest both losing to make the last game a bit of a dead rubber.

The feeble throwing of the light is vintage Partridge.

I'll be honest though I hate shit like this. Winds me up.

Makes me angry that people who don't give an ass to read reports fail to do better.

I don't think deano was eligible for the U23s then.

Realistically who would take the job when they boot ETH?

It's the definition of a poisoned chalice.

Personally I think they need a true leader, one of the world's greatest players - the kind of man that will look you in the eye.

I think Spurs will get a max of 4 points vs sheff united and burnley.

Spurs are more likely to finish 6th than 4th.

But they'll finish 5th.

It's done.

How does anybody feel "average" about this season?

Walked home my five year-old home from school the other day.

I said "this is my favourite part of my day".

She said "that's weird".

I need a new heart.

We love to complain about not being seen as a big team, but realistically if Man U come asking about a player, the fee is higher and the wages are astronomical vs what we'd pay. 

It's not that they're great, it's that they're a global brand and agents know the value a big talent could bring in.

Imagine if Mount, Martial or Anthony were world beaters.

Actually don't bother, the reality is way funnier.

i guess the justification/angry nature of the "yes", is kinda how you would feel if you were willing to take your ex missus back for sloppy seconds after she cheated on you and all the neighbours knew.

You just kinda feel like you have to justify your "yes", and get angry at everyone who warns you that the sloppy seconds probably just isnt the right thing to do after being cheated on and made to look a fool in your local cul-de-sac, however much you really want it.

i get it, i empathise with the yes men.

dont do it though, fool me once, shame on you, sloppy seconds twice, fool on me.

I sense a specialist subject

Would still make a great number 2.

This all day long.

He's not the RB you want as first choice if you're chasing top four every year, but he's the backup you want in that situation.

I think he walks into most mid/lower table prem teams - he's good enough at most things but exceptional at nothing.

I have no clue what you are on about? 

i was drunk and thought the cartoon baby started the thread

Imagine starting a "best show" thread and your own one not getting a mention...

I can only judge this in the context of what UK shows I recommend to north americans since I live here now but:

Bankers: Peep Show, The Office - dislike these and we can't be friends

Next level down the rabbit hole: Boosh, Partridge, Dark Place, Nathan Barley, Toast, Snuff Box, 24 hour party people (I know it's a movie but special mention)

Sitcom to satire - you're old and weird: Brass Eye / The Day Today (always start with Paedogeddon)

Oh, you like Friends?: The Inbetweeners

You like Sienfeld?: Sorry, we don't have anything that shit

In case of an investigation by any federal entity or similar, I do not have any involvement with this group or with the people in it, I do not know how I am here, probably added by a third party, I do not support any actions by members of this group.

My sister has had one for years and every time I visit I use it, and I didn't have a microwave until recently because I hate kitchen gadgets.

I think if you commit to using it it's worth it, you have to spend a bit of time re-working your shopping list - but if you have kids it's a time saver for sure.

they pay Gerrard a fortune and he's the 4th best paid coach in the world

Imagine knowing that everyone on a random forum is better at a job than the 4th best paid person currently doing it

I can't think of a comparable example outside of Kardashians and world leaders.

From this point on, it's better for us if they have a really decent end to the season and so he keeps his job. 

Unless Southgate is in contention.

That would be delicious.
