    So, what happened today?

    It must be puzzling to someone who identifies consistently as a massive taco through all the seasons. What can you say to someone so deeply stuck down the rabbit hole, some real life context might help rather than desperately seeking to feel oppressed by anyone living a different lifestyle to...

    Ange’s system / formation

    5th would be great. Given our remaining fixtures, not to be pessimistic but it's a good job we have that 10 points buffer. Without looking at the results, I feel like we've done pretty well against the good sides, aside from the Chelsea game but playing like we did against Saudi Sportswashing Machine it could...

    Son Heung-Min

    100% agreed. I'd be interested to see the results with Richy upfront compared to Son there, not sure if it would be enough of a sample size to say anything though I guess. What's clear is that Son is the best finisher at the club, that's not in question. But Son has many games where the touch...

    The Official 2023/24 Premier League Thread

    If the ref didn't give that, would VAR have overturned it? That's harsh in my eyes, it came to Smith very quickly. And as always, spawny Utd get an easy way back in to the game.

    ***TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR vs Saudi Sportswashing Machine OMT***

    I'd have to rewatch it, thought it was Porro from where the player was. I hate to be that guy but the coverage for the 2nd goal wasn't great. What Saudi Sportswashing Machine have done in terms of improving the experience for hearing impaired people is awesome and deserves highlighting, however when I watch...

    ***TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR vs Saudi Sportswashing Machine OMT***

    Do we know we're allowed to challenge for the ball when Saudi Sportswashing Machine take a corner? Them lot have won almost every ball unchallenged,the defending is so passive it's embarrassing. Are we missing Richy defending our set pieces? Can't help that all our forwards offer no aerial presence. Unlucky with...

    Victimpool FC - Klopp leaving, grown men crying

    I do wonder whether it's just part of the online persona spiel from Scara and Baleforce or they truly feel that way. Say if we were to win the league cup would it literally not bring any joy or sense of achievement to them. It seems like the not valuing of trophies is to prove a point rather...

    American politics

    Well as the content is critical of the actions Israel, obviously Jon Stewart is antisemitic. It's not as if he himself is jewi- oh wait actually nevermind. It is an interesting distinction between why we (the west) are on Ukraine's side in that conflict but on Isreal's side in another one. That...

    Champions League 23/24

    ...Ok? It meant as a joke but if you've taken it as a dig then sorry about that! Gomes does feel like a mate so perhaps I'm biased, at this stage I'm just repeating myself but the ref wasn't clear in communication and missed a blatant intentional handball (that the player only did because they...

    Champions League 23/24

    I don't recall seeing a clear gesture of advantage either. The actions of both players, Nani handling the ball and Gomes dropping the ball afterwards suggested that they (alongside everyone else in the stadium) were under the impression that play had stopped. It may potentially have been a dive...

    Champions League 23/24

    Intentional handball = Yellow card. That's the rule isn't it? Things aren't always clear cut but without rewatching it, I don't think it was Gomes' rooster up. It was poor communication from the ref and Utd benefited from it, it made sense for Nani to take advantage of it, 99% of players would...

    Champions League 23/24

    Wasn't it also the referee fudging up by missing what was a blatant handball by Nani if play had indeed not been stopped? He literally had his hand on the ball after the Comes incident. I shudder to think about the times of always getting fudged over by Utd / Ref combos. It warms my spirit how...

    Bryan Gil

    Yeah fair point, maybe slight isn't the best word, Modric was short but as discussed had the low centre of gravity and serious strength in the core / legs. Many times it's been said about Gill that he needs to bulk up / hit the gym but I don't think it's ever that simple. It's not always...

    Sick sick world what is wrong with people

    Not that it changes anything but I'm also curious as to whether the letters carved in to the victims had any meaning. Without it seeming like wanting to find an excuse, I bet it's pretty likely that anyone capable of doing that to another person has probably been abused themselves at some...

    Pierre-Emile Højbjerg

    I've been banging on about his contributions all season, the only worry is that he's definitely prone to absolutely fluffing a pass which leaves us desperately open when playing out from the back. There was one around the 80 minute mark that a better team would have scored from, and it would...

    Bryan Gil

    It's not for lack of trying on Gill's part and I do think he's looked decent enough at times, unlucky to have not got the odd goal / assist. It's a cliche which Modric proved wrong but probably as the exception, it's a real tough league to be so slight of build in. Another player springs to...

    The Official 2023/24 Premier League Thread

    No goals conceded in 4 away games apparently. Obviously it's taken investment, a lot of it but at the end of the day there's obviously a good team mentality, a lot of attacking talent but also defensive nous. The manager's obviously a bit of a moany prick though when it's not going his way...

    The Official 2023/24 Premier League Thread

    I reckon players who do that kind of thing should be forced to rewatch the incident on live TV after the game and squirm their way through it. It's just embarrassing and the players might stop if they're outright shamed for it. Havertz looking a real player now, must admit he's been pretty...

    Timo Werner

    Perhaps it's an unfair comparison as Solomon has mainly been injured but in a much shorter time Timo has made a much more telling contribution. Given the amount he's played, it's obvious we needed to make a signing like that and he has hit the ground running. On Manor, I don't know, the...

    The Official 2023/24 Premier League Thread

    Would we be asking for a pen if it was Son getting challenged like that? You can get the ball and it's still a foul / pen, that's not a new notion. Rather than hearing what Smith reckons it'd be good if they pulled up the actual rules that the ref works from, as to provide actual information...
