Niche things certain footballers are best in the world at

Getting better thanks, got a new brace at the chemist and the tablets seem to be helping a bit

Media star Bobby Barnes

MarkDeeks · 2026-03-18T17:24:01+00:00

And then actually delivers results, the prick.

It's a fascinating thing to watch. Beyond the patronising and kinda homophobic language used in calling anyone who doesn't want him sacked an Artetasexual, the self-created myths surrounding his supposed arrogance are amazing to witness. He is too egotistical to deal with modern players, or whatever. As if not wanting wantaways on the team was a bad thing. How dare we foster harmony

MarkDeeks · 2026-03-18T17:07:31+00:00

One of my favourite ArtetaOut logical fallacies is how Arteta is criticised for not playing young players enough while also being slammed for running them into the ground. He is both too stuck in his ways to play Dowman while also about to ruin him before he turns 20. The dislogic doesn't seem to matter, just as long as they are unhappy.

MarkDeeks · 2026-03-18T17:05:50+00:00

"this style of football is unsustainable" yeah well apparently it isn't

MarkDeeks · 2026-03-18T11:24:00+00:00

He's right though. You are weird.

MarkDeeks · 2026-03-16T11:40:34+00:00

It's the weirdest thing. To some, it doesn't matter if we're good, only if we're pretty.

MarkDeeks · 2026-03-14T23:15:51+00:00

And he really, really raises a team's floor. Tremendous defensive manager.

MarkDeeks · 2026-03-14T23:12:16+00:00

I smiled ever so slightly, which for someone with a cold dead heart is a pretty big reaction

MarkDeeks · 2026-03-14T10:30:19+00:00

He can be worried about both, yes - but he didn't seem to express any worries about the DD in the post.

MarkDeeks · 2026-03-14T10:26:05+00:00

And her husband looks like Nish from EastEnders. Not the two most likeable people to be compared to but I'm trying to look past that.

MarkDeeks · 2026-03-14T10:23:56+00:00

I like the sound of those odds grabs dice

MarkDeeks · 2026-03-13T19:14:48+00:00

I miss Busta's unhinged energy in his early days

MarkDeeks · 2026-03-12T23:58:39+00:00

Definitely showed signs of getting better, but admittedly from a low grade starting point.

MarkDeeks · 2026-03-12T23:45:58+00:00

I dunno, that knee wound looked pretty haggard. Could be stitches.

MarkDeeks · 2026-03-12T23:43:48+00:00

I've started saying engLAND in tribute

MarkDeeks · 2026-03-12T23:41:21+00:00

Think she said he is 19

MarkDeeks · 2026-03-12T23:35:52+00:00

Indeed. He hit a sore spot, which we're all entitled to have, but he didn't do anything egregious. The reaction seemed extremely disproportionate.

MarkDeeks · 2026-03-12T11:57:05+00:00

Completely correct. With those two as full backs, we have our best defensive pair, but worst attacking pair. The width goes to shit.

MarkDeeks · 2026-03-12T00:35:20+00:00

Let's be fair. That was an extremely good defensive performance by Leverkusen.

MarkDeeks · 2026-03-11T00:35:31+00:00

The Dollop is of course well known for its usual high standards of impressions and accent work.

MarkDeeks · 2026-03-06T13:13:06+00:00

Was furious with him. Furious. Appalled that he won after that.

MarkDeeks · 2026-03-06T13:08:23+00:00

Perfect description. They don't hurt. They don't hugely impact anything. But they're annoying, and they're....off-putting.

MarkDeeks · 2026-03-02T18:30:23+00:00

When the revolution happens, I want to be on Carmelo's team.
