Player-manager roles do not work at all even at lower levels (remember Edgar Davids at Barnet giving himself the No.1 shirt and picking himself in whatever position he felt like including CB/sweeper lol), so certainly would not work at a club with the stature of Anderlecht.

 

Cool move for him, hope he does well there. Really hope they can beat Juve to the title this season

 

Chucky is so electric

 

Risky move, De Laurentiis is notorious for being one of the worst when it comes to stubborn and unrealistic valuations of players.

 

I actually agree with him haha

 

I don’t have anything wrong with VAR in principal, it’s just that the current implementation mixed with the rule changes that have come into effect is a formula for disaster.

 

Absolute joke that Richardson didn't get booked for that dive. These refs.

 

Also a joke how a player that was kicked in the head is allowed to stay on.

 

Everton were crap. They should have signed Rojo

 

Wow Chelsea can't defend.

On the other hand PUKKI!!! Vindication for think he's be a brilliant player a decade ago m

 

Fair result in the end, Chelsea probably should've won by more.

They're so open though. The average positions are almost funny. Their centre backs must be wondering how they're meant to control such huge spaces.

 

Ayew nearly kicks Lingard in the face.

 

Two injuries in 30 minutes. Nice.

 

That was so against the run of play that it's comical

 

and we concede. Nothing has changed.

 

Even though this game has been whatever, I’m so happy PL is back.

 

How's that not a red? What in the fuck?

Absolute joke.

 

Does this crowd not get tired of singing the same song over and over for 45 mins?

 

That was one of the worst halves of football i’ve seen us play off the top of my head. Absolutely insipid stuff.

 

Gomes and Greenwood really should fucking be playing. Joke that Gomes is not even in the squad.

James and Lingard should come off for Pereira and Greenwood.

 

James and Lingard were miles behind everyone else against Wolves, same thing today. Ole deserves any heat he gets for sticking with them.

 

Jesus that red card in the Brighton match was a fucking awful tackle. Scumbag stuff by Andone.

 

James was good for the first 15. But went out of the game after his injury or whatever that was. Lingard, anonymous.
