'Even allowing for inflation, this thread is not worth 198 Terry Francises' - EPL 2017-18

Of the various CB options they have, only Bailly is really at the level they require.

Lindelof does seem to be improving, and his long passing was a vast improvement over Rojo when he came one

but yeah, our distribution from the back is a serious problem

and LG, you really cannot take a joke when it comes to Klopp

Some of these cunts think football was invented in 1992.

This Chelsea may never get three points tonight. Mounie rising to the challenge.

ffs

at this juncture it might be advisable to rule out winning the league tbf !

I could imagine VLP starting the 2nd half and a perhaps bolder approach. So yeah, we'll probably lose it 4-0!

The Bakayoko goal is clearly a Lowe O.G., just to cap off an appalling 1st half performance.

lol! Dean Whitehead on, Wagner has been on the glue.

He's still in beyond criticism territory for me is Wagner. but wtf is he doing here?

lol

Wagner publicly admitted we wouldn't get "a positive result" from this game the other day, it wasn't mind games by the look of it. Maybe it's pragmatism, but ffs West Ham beat this lot.

That sounds... off? Why would he say that?

Don't think you have to worry about Wagner going to Dortmund btw. Hearing rumors they've already hauled in Nagelsmann.

I think he'll definitely be there next season or if not another Bundesliga club. His family is still in Germany and somebody lied to him about the restaurants in Yorkshire. He is an ultra pragmatist at times, the cup game against Man City where he rested players against an XI with Aguerro was a bit controversial at the time!

GTF in Depoitre!

and somebody lied to him about the restaurants in Yorkshire.

Haha cheers now I've got wine coming through my nose

motion to ban bananaman begins from ilx

motion to execute troy deeney

I'll try not to be too insufferable about Palace's attritional crawl to safety.

Besides, the club has just applied for planning permission to build an enormous new stand, construction to start in middle of next season if things go smoothly- if we go down this season we can put that on hold, if we go down next season, we'll kick off in the championship with a premier league wage bill and a financially ruinous white elephant stand.

tl/dr: patience, grasshopper

How was sissoko let back in here

What is poch trying to prove

Lollll

Aurier fouled as he crosses it

Skews it forty yards into the far corner

God we have been terrible

That goal though

Swansea are a complete waste

Eriksen pass completion can't be 65%

Meaningful passes approaching zero

We look...competent now that we scored a fluke. Not disgusted to cruise and take a restful win but if they decide to go for it with ten mins to go it'll get nuts

Dier just gave away a brilliant chance with his patented move of running away from the biggest threat whenever the ball bounces

united squandering chances all over the place, it's like me trying to put the key in the front door after a heavy sesh in the pub

this rashford shot though

Rooney's bid for a World Cup call-up gathers steam

moyes

Rooney's bid for a World Cup call-up gathers steam

Are you sure you want to joke about that?

Fucking hell just saw other results

spurs have needed a day tbf

Spurs neck and neck with Burnley, 15 pts behind the league leaders.

... sorry, 18 pts.

Uh ahead on goal difference

Burnley averaging less than a goal a game, Champions League watch the fuck out.

Leicester and Chelsea won it that way iirc

Uh ahead on goal difference

one 12-0 against you and you can forget about that

who you playing on saturday btw?

Ha

Grudgingly impressed by Palace. Leicester were awful even before Ndidi got sent off for diving but Hodgson has them well drilled and effective on the break.

"shit ground, no lights ... shit ground, no lights"

Two assists from our most derided player Quaner, love that big guy! Sometimes he looks so inept like he has won a prize to play in a professional top flight football match, not today though.

and Deeney has just seen red for bringing him down!

This ref must have got a nice envelope from our chairman, he's giving us everything.

this is every bit as horrible as I feared with the added factor of Lloris turning into the ghost of Robinson past. Rose intensely lucky not to concede a penalty

could easily be 4-0 already

Spurs looking sloppy, decent chance for Kane there tho

Ali is such a little scumbag

Kane should be off too
