Was hoping he wouldn't end up playing. Akinfewa against a whole backline of academy players is going to be so interesting.

 

from the guy who can't figure out why Spurs fans boo him

 

Wycombe with the opener!

 

KDB is too smooth man.

 

How is this controversial? Did anyone read what he said?

"I am fully against racism and I'm against every type of discrimination, and I just prefer to put my finger to the badge where it says no to racism, like they do in some other sports and football in other countries," Alonso said.

"I prefer to do it this way and, of course, to say very clearly that I am against racism and I respect everybody."

Asked whether or not his decision to stop taking the knee had anything to do with politics, Alonso said: "I don't know, I just prefer to do it this way. It's my way to do it, I think it's another way.

"And maybe I think it's losing a bit of strength the other way, so I just prefer to do it this way and to show I am fully supportive of fighting against racism."

 

Penalties suck, man.

 

Man some epic penalties today. *sad trombone* :(

 

I mean he is absolutely right. The PL missed the perfect point to stop it. Now they can only lose. If they stop now everyone will criticize them because racism is still prevalent and it would be a random time to stop. But if they don't stop, how long are they gonna do it? The kneeling has completely lost its meaning in my opinion, it's just a shallow thing that you do because it's become sort of a tradition at this point.

 

Tbf what’s even the point of power if you can’t do totally crazy shit like making your country start you up front at 60 years old.

 

Apparently they caught him in the locker room after the game giving money to the visitors

 

Gil starting today with Son and Kane. Along with both Dele and Ndombele in the midfield. If that can’t create chances there is no hope for this season.

 

If I was having a nightmare and watching Manchester United this might be the lineup

 

I read the lineup wrong. Son is not in lol

 

Wimbledon about to trounce Arsenal

 

Not sure how I feel about these third kits

 

Jesus, we’re going to get hammered here. What an awful team.

 

Tanguy!

 

It’s showing already

 

Remember if we beat them that you caused this

 

Noble made two bookable fouls there inside 2 minutes and neither brought out a yellow ffs

 

Playing advantage on the second one sucked as Telles rifles off an errant shot

 

I don’t think he even played advantage?

 

Oh cool West Ham players are just allowed stamp on our players in full view of the referee and it’s not even a free kick.
