In non prem news. Blackburn beat Leeds today putting us in the playoffs. Mowbray has done such a great job at Ewood since coming in. He’s put together a fairly strong squad that really gel well together on a fairly tight budget.

Realistically we probably won’t go up this season but if he can keep up the momentum that we’ve had so far we’re definitely going to finish in the top half, which is pretty great for a team that’s just come up.

 

Oh yeah definitely and he should receive some form of punishment for starting shit but Mou should know better too.

 

Yeah agreed. But tensions running high, can't really blame Mourinho, I would have done the same at that time.

Apparently it was Chelsea's assistant manager.

 

Yeah saying all that I’d prob react like too haha.

 

I always wish he'd been given a solid run for Barcelona (especially during Suarez's fourteen game goal drought or whatever it was), so seeing this makes me super happy for him.

 

I’ve never seen a player more uncomfortable with the ball at his feet than Sissoko.

 

And just like that he has a beautiful assist haha

 

Still pissed off about the game but all I can really say is why in the fuck does Morata start over Giroud?

 

At this point I’m convinced that Morata must have blackmail on someone high up the pecking order because he shouldve been dropped long, long ago

 

Slightly off topic but I actually love these kind of incidents. For me it just shows the passion that everyone still has even if it is just some random staff guy.
I can assure you that during the match harsh words are exchanged between both benches. And then when you score like that in injury time it is understandable that you run to the opposing bench with a "f*ck you - thats what you get for your shit talking".

 

Not only in the Bundesliga but his performance for Spain also was great. I don't think there is another striker that is as much on fire as he is right now.

 

One day refs won't be shit

 

Not sure what this is referring to but the ref in the Spurs game was absolutely terrible

 

The Messi injury basically dooms Spurs' UCL hopes.

 

Eh maybe. Barca is still good enough to run the table in that group.

 

Deserved 2-0 win in the end. Marco Silva got his subs spot on. Wan-Bissaka did not deserve to be on the losing side.

 

Ozil's pass to Bellerin... wow.

 

Ozil wound back the years tonight. That 3rd goal was vintage Arsenal.

 

That third goal was beautiful and art

 

10 wins in a row for the first time since 2007 - well done Arsenal.

 

Irish football was a mistake.

 

you vs the guy she tells you not to worry about

 

United u19s played Juve off the park today. Petulant little group of players that Juve side is. 4-1 final score with Juve finishing with 10 men for one of their lads hitting Josh Bohui in the face.

 

wow, no Zinchenko for City today. Wouldnt be surprised if this is the straw that breaks the camels back for him and he does indeed request a transfer in January

 

Off to Wolves in January would be my bet.
