  3. Is it me, or does the New Content list now default to the first post on a thread rather than the first unread post?
  4. But not flagged though, and still a wowser of a miss
  5. Really? Did he get flagged? I didn't see that. Thought the ball was played backwards to him, if anything Anyway, I was just taking the piss, really. That sort of open goal sitter gets missed as often as it get scored. I am actually quite excited for Werner. Not sure how Tammy will fare this season, but we shall see.
  6. Aaaah, the old "Torres is still the world-class striker he always was, he's just not getting the right service from midfield" gambit. I expect it's because Malouda won't pass to him.
  7. Are you for real????? Got dominated, created nothing, a lucky screamer, my arse. This is just revisionist bullsh*t and you should be ashamed to come in here and post bollocks like that.
  8. Mane never had control of the ball at any point - he was at least5-10 yards away from the ball and Kepa got to it before Mane could have even if he had been running on his own. That's why I think it was a very harsh red, but Christensen was stupid to give the referee and VAR twat the opportunity to send him off.
  9. Missed 2 sitters yesterday.
  10. No, he wasn't a proven winner, Klopp had won nothing for nearly 10 years and then it was 2 league titles and their FA Cup. Nothing in Europe as far as I can find out. People should stop over-venerating the man - he was OK, but not great and took a long time to get the dippers to anywhere. AND they still have only done as well as Blackburn in the league.
  11. I wouldn't argue if Mane had had any chance at all of getting to the ball, but he didn't. Was only a Yellow as it didn't deny a clear goal-scoring opportunity.
  12. Did Mount piss on your chips or something? Every other post of yours is whining about Mount and Lampard picking him, despite it being the general consensus across the world of football that Mount is a great prospect and, for the most part, does exactly the job that the manager asks of him.
  13. Was one of Alice Cooper's choices of records to play, as well. Sunday afternoon on the lawn with beer and Johnny Walker is the theme of this weird summer 🙂
  14. And it appears that no-one noticed Werner missed two clear chances, one of which my dog would have put in the back of the net, and he's been dead for 10 years. Could easily have been 3-2, but let's turn on the manager and concentrate on the bollocks, eh? My stream died just as the penalty was awarded and didn't come back until some minutes later so I didn't know whether we had missed it, it had been saved or VAR had overturned it. Also, Mane wasn't within 12 feet of the ball when Christensen cuddled him to the floor and he had no chance of getting to it before Kepa cleared it. Very poor red card, in my opinion, it was never a goal scoring opportunity, but the referee and VAR saw a chance and took it. Totally stupid move by Christensen, but never a red card.
  15. Fun fact - Alice Cooper was being interviewed on the Johnny Walker show yesterday afternoon and his opinion is that the Sex Pistols were just another incarnation of the Monkees. Vaguely competent(ish) musicians pulled together into a boy band by a producer with a vision, after a huge number of different people getting auditioned and then a group of song-writers creating a group image. Made me quite amused, anyway 🙂
  16. Can't argue @Nibs - Like I said, I wan't defending him as such, I just thought he didn't play that badly on Monday, certainly not enough to warrant some of the more lurid abuse. I think someone said he couldn't have been that bad to be Spain's keeper, and he did OK when he first came here. Lately he's been playing worse than me in goal, I'll grant you that, but I still believe a lot of the animosity from our more childish fans was caused by the refusal to come off the field over 18 months ago, and their opinion of his keeping ability was tainted by that ever since. Same as Willian's instamatic picture of Conte, meant that the hard of thought could never see any good. FFS, people are still whining on about Willian and what he did in an Arsenal shirt FFS. Let it go, bitches. Still would rather have a 94 year-old Cech in goal on Sunday, though.
  17. I'm amazed though, that given the number of world-class goal-keepers who regularly post in here, why none of them have offered themselves up to the club to replace what is obviously a clown in a keeper's kit. I'm not defending the lad, I think maybe he could have done better with Brighton's goal, but equally can see why a very good shot will beat any keeper at any time. It gets wearing, though, when people take up a position on a player, and, from that point onwards, that player can do nothing right. It happens a lot in here.
  18. Alexa, shuffle songs by Santana and, amongst others, up pops this classic
  19. Alexa, shuffle me songs like And what happens? 2 hours later I've come round to
  20. And obviously wouldn't fit into "an elite D", whatever the f**k that is.
  21. It's quite interesting to go back to that and read from the start. Other than a single comment, you have to go pages and pages before the mood starts to turn. In fact, a surprisingly large number of pages.
  22. Alexa, shuffle songs by Gil Scott-Heron
  23. One of the great songs of my days courting my wife,and then Sunday mornings in bed in a flat in Bath 🙂 Played the whole album, really Any road up, Alexa, shuffle songs by Culture. First up is
  24. Maybe it should be in a different thread of its own, but can you give me maybe 3 reasons why you claim he "is a brilliant manager" and exactly what abilities "it is a shame that some people do not appreciate"? Maybe 1 single genuine reason might be enough. As far as I can see, he did a workmanlike job at Southampton and then achieved nothing at the Spuds except make them perennial losers when the chips are down. They are called the North London bottlers for a reason.
