And me, was surprised yesterday with the comments on how bad the pre game show was, I haven't watched that shit in 10+ years, switch it off at half time too Watch highlights on YouTube 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was watching a Geoff Horsfield podcast, seemed like a top bloke but yes he also said McGinn was the better player out the two though this was last season. I suppose it's because he pulls his socks up, doesn't wear yellow boots, is a short back and sides man and can put himself about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The idiot has just checked the stats and Jacks have been awful for the last 12 games, I'm sure Jacks stats will improve when he starts playing again, Deeney you dumbass.

Jenas looked behind him because his achilles snapped. And ask anyone who has had that injury it feels like getting shot in your heel. The commentator was wondering why he did that and mentioned the sprinkler and it seems to have gone down as folklore since then 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 Gary Neville team of the season an absolute joke, 4 United players 2 are certain but Rashford and Maguire along with Walker(no Cancelo) and Kante who wasn't really a regular until Tuchel came in. Carragher a lot more balanced and no Liverpool players to show his bias Can see now why Valencia were quick to hire this genius from Sky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 No cancelo in either of them is madness Other than that I would say you can get it right between the 2 teams though, stones or maguire I'm not sure who else there could be if I'm honest Still think Dias could / should win player of the year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't put Kante to be fair that was Carra. Neville put Gundo in there which is far more accurate. I know CHelsea's defence has been great, but I'm not sure how anyone could come to the conclusion that Martinez WASN'T the best keeper this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See also picking man of the match increasingly early before the final whistle. I seem to recall watching a Wolves game a month or two ago and the commentator named one of their defenders MOTM (might have been Saiss?) and he then scored an own goal? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xela Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 Garth Crooks again and his obsession with players moving to a handful of clubs. Lets gloss over the fact he thinks Saka is better than Foden, the medias obsession with trying to move players is boring. Grealish, Kane, Martinez, Saka etc. Just GTFO Garth. Quote Bukayo Saka: Regular readers will know what I think of this lad. If Manchester United or Liverpool don't get their hand in their pockets and buy him there is something seriously wrong with them. Bukayo Saka has been outstanding for Arsenal all season. He was their only shining light against Villarreal on Thursday night and his performance against West Brom days later was devastating. Everybody is talking about Manchester City's Phil Foden, this lad is just as good if not better. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/57064779 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 Some of the articles about City today are bordering on satire. You would think they were a newly promoted team who just won the title by some miracle by working on a budget. Yes they are the best team in the league this season but they wont even hit 90 points and will be the lowest points total in 5 yesrs 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Factory Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 (edited) The BBC is going to show this year's copa america. However it is basically at the same time as the euros, and no doubt be on crappy bandwidth on the red button. Its the 5th tournament in 10 years. It is a 10 team competition with 2 groups of 5- with 8 going through to the quarters. Its not just the Euros that are bloated nowadays.
