Qwiss And it was definitely only one move of dissent not two. Insane refereeing
Oliver is a clown.
Who's our ref at this shithole next week?
Bring Back Kerrea Gilbert doesn’t really matter - they’re all against us
I thought this game had a similar feel to our game earlier, it's just that we finally broke through and Liverpool didn't.
Meanwhile, Keano looks like he's about to lamp Daniel Sturridge... Someone should call an ambulance.
Luckily Liverpool play midweek whereas we have a break. Hopefully Liverpool will play a strong team v the Hammers.
Emi Martinez is a joke of a man. He got booked but I'm not sure if it was for FOLAT (falling over like a twat) or for his follow up shenanigans. He should definitely have been booked for the falling over.
Martinez vs Maupay - two horrible individuals.
Martinez owes his career to Maupay

Mudryk cost more, has been in England longer and has fewer goals contributions.
Atleast, Hojlund scored 5 CL goals.
daredevil tbf it'd be hard for Mudryk to score CL goals at Chelsea 😆
Anyway Hojlands goals against Copenhagen and Gala don't count for much to me.
Clrnc No doubt a PL great but thought he was poor yesterday, and I haven't been impressed by him for quite a while now. I am actually shocked at how great his stats are. Kinda similar to Liverpool really, impressive points total and stats but they don't look that impressive when you watch their games.
He played twice last season. Still, both are far too young to write off, but it's beautiful that they're directly contributing to their teams misfortunes.
Just saw that Opta have United with a 1.3% chance of finishing in the top 4. Seemed crazy low given that they're only 6 points off 4th. Then realised that they're 6 points off City, but 10 points behind Villa in 3rd!
They also give Villa over an 80% chance of finishing in the top four, which also feels crazy given Spurs are just 5 points behind them.

goon I think they have taken into account the difficulty of fixtures Villa has played and won so far, while Spuds have lost quite abit of them during their injury crisis.
Nottingham Forest's boss Steve Cooper fired. It begins.
I bet Kompany is next on the chopping block.
flobaba Nottingham Forest's boss Steve Cooper fired.
Weird that they gave him a contract extension in the middle of last season when it really looked like they were going to be relegated and now they fire him this season when it looks like they almost certainly won't be relegated. I guess they must have given him that extension under the assumption of a level of improvement in performances that didn't materialize. Kinda strange.
Don't think Forest's transfer policy has helped things. How you're meant to demonstrate tangible YoY improvement when your squad changes constantly is anyone's guess.
I'd have kept Cooper if my other option was Nuno.
Qwiss thoughts @jones ? Think his work experience in Saudi will serve him well this time around.
KingslandBarge rated him because of his time in Valencia which was great but his last few stints were awful
He was absolutely awful in the Saudi league. Got sacked in no time.
