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

The name Jorgensen has on his kit "Zanka" is his nickname, in tribute to his fave character from Cool Runnings.

one can only hope he'll be providing a free pint of Crucial Brew for everybody

god I miss Crucial Brew

I don't think Jack Iron is available at modern football grounds, but it would be a perfect drink on a cold match day.

I need to stop reminiscing about lovely warming booze

crucial brew - was that like a higher strength red stripe or something?

yeah, it was magnificent, came in a black can

The Caribbean clientele in the bookies I used to work in used to often drink bottled Special Brew from the pub across the road. Or often overproof Rum out of coke cans. Rocket fuel was that stuff.

all beers should be named to a scale of words like crucial depending on their abv

vital brew
important brew
significant brew
routine brew

minor brew

ha ha

"Please drink significantly"

"This beer, while crucial, can damage your health."

probably not any branded stuff that these fuckers were drinking!

Ryan Giggs interview: I am more suited to coaching in top leagues than at bottom clubs

that might be a paradox, tbh you would just as fucking useless at either.

"Ryan Giggs tells Oliver Kay what jobs he would like to take as he begins his managerial career".

Truly sublime deadpan from the Times sub-editor there.

there was a time, altho Dalglish at Liverpool is the only example that springs to mind, when it was possible to come thru a top flight club as a player and end up managing them without taking a lower league detour. but the hubris of Giggs and his ilk in 2017, it's like being an air cadet and hoping that your first job will be as a jumbo jet pilot

Me wants be an engine driver with an engine driver hat when I grows up.

he is going through a tough period, after some seriously deep introspection the revelation that other people exist independently of his current field of vision, completely blew his mind.

Liverpool look capable of running away with this. You expect them to score every time they go forward.

Could be 3-0 already.

Yeah Arsenal are nowhere tbh. You'd think Wenger must throw in the towel at the end of the season (with Ozil and and Sanchez prob leaving, too).

How tf did Salah/Mane nog make 0-2 and 0-3 there?

asking them to score two goals from one passage of play is a bit much

Haha, there were two chances with them linking up in the space of two minutes

Mane seems kind of pissy at the moment. Like Salah is stealing his thunder or something

Embarrassing.

Fantastic

lol xp also v embarrassing yes

Arsenal... no words.

ffs the space he had to run into there

Header from Sanchez lol. So Liverpool.

Wow.

wtf

Also embarrassing tbf.

pretty sure i could have stopped at least one of those two

Mignolol

Unbelievable.

holy shit

I mean it’s Liverpool so not totally unbelievable but...

Lads...

this'll end 7-5 way this is going.

i'll never understand Liverpool's Achilles heel: how do they get undone so completely? How do they give it away every single time?

xp ya I hear you SV

lol cajun

What happened to Maneeeee

what in the living fuck?

there just is no midfield in this game. just defenders and attackers. that probably doesn't bode well for the state of things but it's mighty enjoyable to watch.

lawl

Barely any keepers either.

:D
