There's nothing like a battle for 4th place to set the pulses racing. I can barely watch, this is living :barscarf:

Martinez making two 'tactical' subs at half time! :shock:
WTF! Is that legal? What are 'tactical subs' anyway? :?

I thought I'd nodded off and woken up in the 70th minute when I saw the changes being made. Tactical subs are anti football.

They are an unfair twist on the preordained 67th minute like-for-like subs. Frowned upon by AFC and just not cricket.

Don't mention the draw mate. I already look like I'm pitching a tent and the wet wipes are upstairs

Never a pen. Blatant dive and 100% yellow.

Absolutely no need for Lovern to dive in there though. The virtual trophy was in jeopardy for a split second.

True. But Osman was throwing himself down before the defender was anywhere near him ffs.

Amazing how average Lukaku has looked when he isn't allowed to run unchallenged for 40 yards
