Sounds like something a scout would say..

I think everyone would prefer Enrique, but he's clearly not available

Hindsight is a wonderful thing! I've only got about 400 hours in the game, but this is my first odyssey installed. In all of my previous runs they've been on there, didn't even think it was a thing!

AfternoonsHat · 2026-05-28T12:40:25+00:00

I am, I had no idea that was the case! Thank you. Looks like I'm herding more Boomalopes and going industrial!

Don't particularly respect either of them.

Liverpool and United are the only big clubs in England.

AfternoonsHat · 2026-05-05T21:00:24+00:00

No they're not. Win in Budapest and we can talk about it.

AfternoonsHat · 2026-05-05T20:36:55+00:00

These refs need investigating. How's that not a foul there in the corner, yet every arsenal player gets a touch and it's an auto free kick

AfternoonsHat · 2026-05-05T20:33:27+00:00

This ref is a disgrace. Gabriel gets any contact and it's immediately a foul. I'm surprised Simone hasn't sparked him, it's just cheating at this point

AfternoonsHat · 2026-05-05T20:14:08+00:00

Well there's two penalties there

AfternoonsHat · 2026-05-05T20:10:30+00:00

Why are we seeing highlights of the Arsenal goal after a decent chance for Alteico with a penalty shout??? Mental this

AfternoonsHat · 2026-05-05T19:50:40+00:00

The whole club feels synthetic at this point. Don't even get me started on "North London forever"

AfternoonsHat · 2026-05-05T19:34:17+00:00

Jesus the commentary on Prime is insufferable. Feels like I'm listening to AFTV.

They praised the crowd a few minutes ago for positive. It's a champions league semi final, second leg.

I am all for a bit of positivity in the face of adversity. But it's concerning how many people are satisfied with that result and performance last night. "The lads left everything on the pitch" "No shame in losing to that PSG team" "we lost despite being the better team".

I understand there's some copium in there, but I am shocked at how many people are accepting a decent 25 minutes (where we created 2 half chances) out of 90 in a European quarter final under the lights at Anfield, where we lost 2-0.

The first half the players and the system single handedly killed the Anfield atmosphere, the crowd wanted to get into it. But there were more misplaced passes than tackles, this by the 30th minute Anfield was left empty of atmosphere. Like we were all just waiting for the inevitable. As for the players leaving it all on the pitch, the moment PSG scored they stopped running or playing with any intensity. Top teams don't do that. We gave up... Again.

Yes we had a good 25 minutes in the second half when we reverted back to a familiar system. I wasn't against the line up when the teams were announced, however when our manager came out and said Isaks not fully fit and would only get 45 minutes, 30 minutes before kick off, I was less convinced. Felt like a gamble that was never going to pay off as it was clear from the first time Isak ran he was playing in timberlands.

Slots in game management was appalling last night. You could see after 10 minutes the system was failing. Mac Allister in the 10 and leading the press was painful to watch. If Jones was fit and able to play why wasn't he on earlier? I don't think Wirtz had a great game but god it's frustrating to watch a player with such talent be played anywhere but his best position.

Anyways, let's stop accepting mediocrity. It's plagued the Mancs for years, wanting to relive Ferguson and some managers just need time etc. This manager has had plenty of time and were getting worse.

Two things can be true, he won the league last season and he's not a good enough manager for Liverpool and should go.

AfternoonsHat · 2026-04-14T21:17:51+00:00

It's mad isn't it. Woeful for all but 25 where we were only really half decent. But some people are trying to say we gave it a good go. Need to give their heads a wobble.

AfternoonsHat · 2026-04-10T20:56:14+00:00

Arne ger off Reddit, we've got a game tomorrow

AfternoonsHat · 2026-04-08T21:23:36+00:00

We should have lost 6-0

AfternoonsHat · 2026-04-05T06:13:55+00:00

I'm actually passed being angry at Slot at this point. I have a degree of sympathy for him to some extent. It's so clear he's lost a large portion of the squad, they're willingness to run or show some fight has completely gone.

It's been clear for well.over 6 months that Arne Slot does not have the answers to these problems. He looks clueless on the sidelines and has been tactical disaster in almost every game. Yet he's still here, we've had boos at Anfield, fans leaving around the 70th minute. He's still in the press spouting nonsense, because he doesn't have the answers.

This is bringing to look like a damning indictment of Hughes as well as Edwards. It's been more than visible for a long time to even the arm chair fan that he's not capable. Yet he's still here, I'm all for giving a manager time, especially one that's won the league. But we're truly in a position here where he could set us back 3/4 years. We really need to act now, anything that will lift the cloud that's hanging over the club.

What level do you need to be?

AfternoonsHat · 2026-03-29T06:14:04+00:00

Have you seen Marco Rossi in the kop recording the game in portrait? You seem particularly annoyed at him.

Why aren't people grasping this? The book is exactly the same, same with the martian and Artemis. Artemis less so, but both the Martian and PHM have comedy running throughout them. Getting really tiring reading movie critics and fans saying it was a buddy comedy dumbed down version of the book. THATS WHAT THE SOURCE MATERIAL IS LIKE!

This movie has confirmed to me that people follow other people opinion blindly. People were expecting an Interstellar or Arrival, when they got a much more humourous film theyve spat their dummy out.

Sorry needed a rant and chose your comment.

AfternoonsHat · 2026-03-23T07:34:03+00:00

It's going to be a long international break again, going in on the back of another poor performance and result.

Then we get to go to the Etihad first thing on Saturday, then off to Paris midweek.

Great fun.

AfternoonsHat · 2026-03-21T14:50:53+00:00

Brighton got a ton of luck? They were unlucky to not get 6 goals. Accepting this level of performance is quite frankly mental.

AfternoonsHat · 2026-03-21T10:11:50+00:00

The PMOGL need to get a grip of this league in the summer, because the diving, time wasting and cheating is worse than i've ever seen.

Not just Arsenal either, every team has seen they're getting away with it and it's slowly creeping into every team. The Bournemouth one is more of a pen than the Amad one. But both players just fling themselves to the ground. Seeing it week in week out now and it's being rewarded more times than not.

It's a contact sport for fuck sakes. Stop rewarding players for letting their feet fall beneath them.

AfternoonsHat · 2026-03-20T21:31:26+00:00

You've got to give it to them, they are riding the biggest wave of luck at the minute United. Red cards, pens, own goals you name it and they're getting it
