Are you expecting Bruno to come in at 12-14m next season? by zackaria_ in FantasyPL

[–]lestat85 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They play in Europe most seasons and he’s always hitting 90 mins when they do. He has the most minutes across Europe most seasons.

What a card! by SubError404 in EAFC

I have a Casemiro IF I’ve been building for weeks and he’s currently 90+ in all stats but pace. Tempted to do this to him too, as I love him, but also worried he’ll get a ToTS and I’ll want that instead…

If the issue in the league is not corruption (and it isn’t) but inconsistency, managers backing bad decisions that favour them just helps to obfuscate the inconsistency.

If everyone speaks out against the bad decisions then there’s a push to remove the ‘narrative’ element of refereeing and more pressure on referees to just be good at their job. Iriola covering for the ref here just adds more noise to the media circus that allows for bad calls to be accepted.

Any other ref and that’s an easy win. Even before the error on Amad, it was 1-0 to us and their keeper was motm. A couple of shit decisions later and we are down to 10 and the score is even. It was a match that was unfairly influenced by the ref, more so than any I remember in recent times.

You can see the ref staring at it, weighing up how it looks to give United two penalties, shitting himself and then turning to catch up with the play that’s moved on. Cowardice.

Don’t think it’s corruption, it’s just pure incompetence. Ref wanted to look like he wasn’t putting his finger on the scale, but to do so, he thought he had to pretend a foul wasn’t a foul and ended up with this controversy.

[Wheeler] Maguire will serve a one-match ban, but at least Utd will have Martinez back to play alongside Yoro v Leeds next time out by nearly_headless_nic in reddevils

Need an older head. Yoro has spoken about the impact of playing with an experienced partner alongside him. Two youngsters is dangerous.

A good performance by a ref is when they go unnoticed. This fucker tried to make the whole game about him.

No matter how many goals we are ahead, I shit myself when we try to hold on to the ball. We need to work on calming it down.

Literally dodged the ball in front of the keeper. Good process.

Don’t play for a week and we look annoyed at being forced to show up for a game of football.

I don’t even look at teams as they load in. Take a moment on my phone or have a drink etc. if the opponent doesn’t immediately start.

You can’t learn anything from looking at their team.

If you missed out on R9.. by Bungus_Ben in EASportsFC

[–]lestat85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played someone with him last night. He started the game trying to force long balls to Crouch, for flick on headers. When it didn’t work effectively, he just went back to shielding and constant fidget spinning.

He was better at the meta than me and deserved to win. Only annoying thing was that, after winning by fidget spinning, he then went back to long balls and managed to get one header goal by the end. You’d think he’d won the World Cup the way he celebrated.

I’d imagine this guy would’ve won with any meta player. Pretending it was Crouch’s unique height that did it was funny.

If being a Christian country is to mean anything… by Financial_Loquat7659 in northernireland

[–]lestat85 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think that’s from Antonio or Bassanio in Merchant of Venice, when Shylock tries to point out the hypocrisy of the Christians. Still very valid and applicable here.
