other matches this weekend

I thought VAR was spot on disallowing Mane’s goal.
When the ball came down he had his hand and arm by his thigh and the ball hit his arm and it helped to bring the ball under control. I’d be seriously pissed off if that wasn’t given against us. VAR is shit but I think it was right on this occasion.

Can't stand the thought of them winning the league, much less going unbeaten :cry:

United are awful, can't see them finishing higher than 6th (at best).

Maybe not, they only lost once last year, though. They can even win the league at our place. Fuck that.

100% right on mane's "goal" - the bullshit new handball rules (eg jesus goal against the scum) dictate that the attacking team cannot benefit from a handball whether it is intentional or not.

The manure goal should absolutely have been disallowed by var, and old horse teeth fleeced that fat c.unt 4th official for the remainder of the game :lol: :lol:

I have to say that you will have to go a long way to find 2 teams with midfields as shit as those 2 teams - Henderson, fabinho and winjaldom versus fred, mctominay and perreira ...…….. not a decent player between the 6 of them :roll:

Agree with augie on those 6 midfielders. Absolute mediocrity.

Disagree on the manc filth goal. The foul was a bare touch on his shin pad and he threw himself down like he'd been shot and it was so far back in the play it would have been a nonsense for VAR to disallow the goal.

The manc filth are total gash. They caught the mousers on a serious off day with Lesbian Features off form and no Salah and only had to hold out for an easy enough win and then their shit defence went to sleep to let that shaving advert prick walk through for a tap in.

Without all three of the victim front 3 playing and playing well the myth of Stupid Teeth's "genius" was exposed again. The PL is so shite nowadays that this attention starved buffoon has put one of the most one dimensional teams in place with one of the worst midfields in history and they very well may win it at a canter ffs. :roll:

So Sol has become the manager of my local team Southend United. They've won 1 game all season in the league so has his work cut out.

Many similarities with the Arsenal - decent enough going forward but the defence is woeful.

Looks decent enough however I wonder about how long he will hang around...

Leicester tearing Saints apart at St Mary’s.
0-5 at half time albeit against 10 men.
Playing with pace and precision. They look definite contenders for a top 4 place to me.

And for the record, everyone scoffed at the idea of signing Johnny Evans (Not me mind) yet Leicester have only conceded 8 goals this season.

He'd get in Arsenals side easily.
