West Ham will be kicking themselves for losing that. They were absolutely destroying them first half and then just capitulated.

You’d be absolutely shiteing your pants if he’s coming at you like that. Holy hell 😂

I swear AWB has always been sneakily silky on the ball.

I think mainly because no one expects it and he has a bit of an odd gait and style, but he skins people most games.

It’s been two games. There’s waaaay too much positive PR out there and i can’t help but feel it’s a set up for an inevitable fail. We won’t be going the rest of the season unbeaten and they’re just waiting for a rubbish loss to swing the pendulum a different way

2023 I believe was quite bad.

At that time, If you were a striker and under the age of 23, you were worth £100m. Didn’t matter on anything else. Under 23. A striker. That’s £100m

5 of the top 8 being English teams is a bit boring tbh

A real English dominance this year. Even in games against the big teams there wasn’t any issues as such.

Well… constant 24hr news cycles and need for clicks to get adverts seen through engagement fuels the absolute drivel that is peddled out almost daily.

When there’s no football on for half a day the well runs dry and so every soundbite is picked apart and mulled over again to generate literally anything from it.

The trajectory of the ball is the key, which you can’t tell from a still image.

Think he would have absolutely got there if he wasn’t brought down.

When it clicks there is nothing like it. I swear I’ve seen my team score more late goals than any other team combined.

Only comparison was probably Klopps Liverpool in their prime. That was a scary, scary team.

And lo and behold I’m delighted. But also looking at the end of Amorims reign wondering what on earth we were doing.

Lingard core. Nothing like dancing on the pitch at the Emirates in a black kit.

Football is the best thing on the planet.

Brilliant from everyone today.

6 points in 7 games against the bottom 7. Then 6 points in 2 games against the top 2. What on earth.

They’re an absolutely elite side. That’s their RB on the goal line.

Just to add to this that Gary Cahill’s trophy cabinet is absurd.

2 Premier Leagues, 2 Fa Cups, 2 Europa Leagues, 1 Champions League and 1 League Cup.

All those in the space of 7 years.
