I'm not sure if it's a confession really, but I can’t stop masturbating to that video. Does that count?

Well Matt Law who is a Villa fan and is well connected at Chelsea says its a possibility.  They are crazy. The thing they dont need is potential. They need experience. But this is Boehly. So Broja and 20 mill in return please 

If they want experience, what about a player with 77 senior international caps and 18 goals?

Time for Bertie to go home to Chelsea - £80 million

I actually kinda like this game. For the first time in a long time I find the gameplay quite enjoyable since one of the latest patches where they made a ton of changes. 

On single player career mode or are you not one of us?

Funniest part about Deeney is he played for them this season and was a coach since August. So its not like he just walked into a new club

Didn't think of that. Imagine he's your team mate and then next week he's saying that you're either talentless or lazy.

But then again Forest Green hired a woman as manager for 2 weeks as a compete publicity stunt. This is probably the same business. They knew the calibre of his temperament from him being a player so this can't have been a surprise. Just a way to get them in the news again.

It seems they have forgotten about any need to win football matches

They'd walk the league. The reason we struggled first season is because we ineffectively tried to actually play football down there and just got bullied 

We could have gone into every game like the crazy gang and lost under that charlatan RDM. That was his last management job with an 8% win rate.

He wasn't trying to play football. He was just trying to get through the week without being found out.

Izzy thinks losing to West Ham and Fulham might be a good thing for Arsenal because it'll be a wake up call. Great point.

No one is mentioning Villa. I'm surprised they don't cut us out of the table when they put it up. 

I had such faith that Villa would manage the game and Trust Unai etc that I was shocked that it all fell apart. I'm still sort of reeling.

There were moments of concern in playing it out early on where it all went to shit because of the 6 outfield players who work it out, 4 were back up or playing out of position. Only Luis and Digne were where they should be. And then Digne went off so there was only 1 of the first choice in position. 

And that was not likely to hold, despite the lead. I would have been happy with a draw going into the game and we nearly got it. I wonder if we could have abandoned our playing it out early on and try to go long just to not run the gauntlet on those 5 back up players. Maybe easier to say in hindsight.

It does if Lenglet and Chambers are outward bound.

Arise Sir Kortney 

Yeah alright. Fair enough like

Loved how many amazing referees we had in the match thread. 

Bottlers

Not a huge Duran fan

He put his hand right into Diaby's face. That would be a red every day of the week if he wasn't the referee. VAR should really intervene, but it's one rule for the players and another for referees.

Media 101:  more people will click on a headline if it's intriguing.    It's not a slight on you, us as a club or anything else. 

Now explain @Delphinho123 opinion on Buendia.

Watkins is a good lad

Definitely a red.

Martinez at fault for being an idiot. Thought he would be able to pick up Maupay, but wasn't able. Needs to work on his deadlift

What a brilliant game 

McGinn Arse Time

Stupid from Kamara and Martinez

That's such a beautiful goal
