I honestly think I would miss. Took me four times to pass my driving test, and I had been driving since I was 16.

I think I would get half way down toward the ball and then run over to the ref and ask if I can go go to the toilet. And then I would get the bus home

The goal is good!!

England were over 75% to secure an extra CL spot at one point.  A lot can change, I wouldn't lean too much on those %.

Those percentages are such nonsense. They're totally ignorant of probabilities. I've been blocked by some of those accounts on twitter for pointing it out. They change drastically on one result which means they have created a probability on some assumptions but if they are wrong in their assumption, the entire probability % changes. The likelihood of the assumption being wrong should be factored into the percentage, rather than if arsenal win then the percent we quoted is accurate. If they don't win, essentially we have to completely recalculate the probability because the previous probability assumed they would win and made no allowance for the possibility that they wouldn't. It's nonsense pseudostats

A PSA is not a risk free test. The number increases with age and leaves you open to some really invasive unnecessary investigations that can lead to really significant problems. >50% of 90 year olds will die with Prostate cancer, but it won't be the cause for their death, just something rumbling in the background. PSA test on request is not recommended.

GPs seem to love running them, but they're bad news. Interactions with doctors are like when US cops pull over minorities. The chances of getting shot/ made impotent/incontinent from an unnecessary prostate biopsy goes way up when your GP runs a PSA and you don't know any better. YMMV

Why even stop the play for a ball to the face? That’s not a head injury. And then give the ball to arsenal when we were in possession on the edge of the box, what the actual ****?

The face is on the head

Liverpool losing...let's finish 3rd!

Fulham next away for them. Fulham playing well and beating West Ham today. Loss

Everton away, derby match and Everton fighting for their lives. Loss

West Ham away, have lost one game at home since September. Draw 

Home to Spurs, Draw

Away to Villa. Villa win

Home to Wolves. Dunno. Loss. Why not? They just lost at home to Palace.

73 points total for them. Villa need 11 points from the other 15 available to finish 3rd. We can even afford to lose today. It's in the bag

I haven't played a Football Manager game for almost 20 years. I'm considering getting back into it. I found the training elements became a bit involved. My favourite part of CM was playing Stan Collymore until he wasn't depressed anymore, so I'm probably not a purist. Any recommendations on how best to get back into it without being overwhelmed by all the changes

This thread is insane. It's been almost 15 years since we finished 6th, let alone 5th or 4th. We haven't bottled anything, it's been a tremendous effort for us to even be in this position where we are still in with a good shout for 4th with 6 games to go. Also in a European quarter final to boot. This is the best season of my lifetime so far, even if it ends today. You would think we were Liverpool or something the way our fans go on.

I agree with all of this but I don't think we think we're Liverpool. We were just 2-0 up against Brentford who haven't won in 9 and they nearly beat us. It's a great season. Yesterday didn't feel great. 

If you remember that season we were competing against Arsenal for 4th and we were well ahead of them before a bad run and then we went 2-0 up against Stoke and it looked like the slide was over. After our second goal went in, the commentator announced that we were going to finish top 4 or that we had one foot in or something. 

And then Stoke scored two in the last two minutes. That was the last time we finished 6th. It didn't feel like we had had a great season. 

He's out for 2 games now. He must have a trip booked. Yellow cards would have been scrubbed after today. He misses two games because he couldn't keep ut together for another minute.

Such an unnecessary foul from Moreno

Digne had more time there . Didn't need to do the acrobatics 

I like Tielemans

Ok this ref is an idiot

This isn't Stoke 2009

I give a shit about Villa. Really celebrated that goal

Give us a penalty you word removed

Great offside trap. Shame everything else is absolute dogshit

Back to this **** shit. We had Brentford beaten where their game plan of being extremely narrow had failed. And now they've something to hold on to.

I can't even watch anymore. Just listening to the commentary

This ref is only giving fouls one way since HT! 

I don't think that has been the problem

Holy shit. Villa are asleep

Ah so we're doing this again.  Good to know

What kind of a goal was that? So bizarre

Such a shame that didn't go in. Was a great move
