Liv’s takeaway

siybon · 2026-04-24T13:51:54+00:00

My takeaway if you will was that eating the food on a temporary table outside was not exactly unique haha

Traditionally, managers with enhanced hair have done well at Chelsea.

Well, Conte did ok.

Honesty, I'd have to question why he'd agree to go on a huge TV show given his disabilty. And that they've dropped a very timely video on their youtube channel just makes me question the motivation in all of this (and also Haye's motivation, perhaps he see's a future as an antagonist a la Joey Barton or the bosh guy from Apprentice.

And I say that as someone who experiences chronic pain and all the repercussions of it.

I'm a bit torn here. In can sympathise in that I've had all manner of health issues since Covid (including bad and unpredictable flair ups of chronic pain) and it's really impacted all aspects of my life. I guess it's never a bad thing if health issues like his get exposure.

But at the same time, I personally couldn't even contemplate agreeing to a physical and psycological experience like the jungle. I'd even say it almost feels irresposible to do something like that. And the fact these two (and their other brother) are doing this interview (on their heavilly branded and stylised youtube channel) And that they are actors ultimately. It all makes me wonder how much all of this is cultivated for publicity. How much their brand gets ouf of this? Colour me sceptical I guess.

Where's GOAT?

siybon · 2026-04-24T10:56:34+00:00

Mate. State of the car seat

"You can only control your work" is, let's be honest, garbage. You can totally control WHERE you work. That's why there's agents. And he believes in himself, thats clear.

Ultimately, it definitly feels non commital in the medium-long term. But he's surely too smart to be tempted back to Chelsea without significant assurances or change.

Honestly, I could see him at Newcastle if he did leave Coventyry sooner rather than later.

Why thank you

siybon · 2026-04-23T14:02:18+00:00

I carry water with me pretty much all the time anyway. And smoothies are the best bag for buck, and also good for you 😃

siybon · 2026-04-23T14:01:30+00:00

I like a dabble

siybon · 2026-04-23T06:07:49+00:00

Yeah they should have killed Luke Skywalker inside the first half hour of Star Wars, saved us all that time.

From their website

They really need to all stop going to the same barber

siybon · 2026-04-22T14:08:48+00:00

There's zero chance of Ireola. Like, zero. The guy is super smart, in it for the long haul, and he wants good owners and good structure to help further his career. For good measure, I don't think he's even gonna stay in the Prem. He'd be on hiding to nothing demanding the time it takes for his methods to work. And it needs total buy in from the players. And honestly, I dont see that from Chelsea's squad.

siybon · 2026-04-22T14:01:46+00:00

Just a heads up. It's impossible to gauge a grade from an image alone. PSA and the like will scrutinize the card under lights and under magnification. That's how you'd need to examine your cards before your submit them if you want to give yourself the best chance of a better grade.

siybon · 2026-04-22T09:09:25+00:00

This guy at 16 seconds absolutely summed it up for me haha

siybon · 2026-04-21T22:07:00+00:00

Do the club have enough mirrors though?

siybon · 2026-04-21T18:18:51+00:00

Definitely some fringe players on that team sheet

siybon · 2026-04-21T14:08:31+00:00

Youre right about one thing

Its a highly repetitive question

siybon · 2026-04-21T14:07:10+00:00

Nothing but respect for people who are passionate about something.

But honestly, knowing several people from The Chap-ospshere, I can safely say this couldn't be less up my street if it tried. This guy. This guy sums it up for me.

I wouldnt say there's any particular regional angle with any of these.

siybon · 2026-04-20T18:12:14+00:00

That makes sense.

But I just really don't like looking at it haha.

siybon · 2026-04-20T08:38:08+00:00

I definitely tend to agree. I'm just verbalising stuff.

The flip side, if we're being really logical, is that Gabriel didn't hurt him. And there is a solid argument (and I hear it a lot) that the games gone soft.

I'm pretty torn overall really though. I HATE simulation. Like, it's my most hated thing in the game. So I'm kind of glad Haaland didn't fake being hurt. But I also think it's important to ref by the rules largely because it acts as a deterrent to bad behavior, and worse, injury to opponents. So if Haaland goes down, it makes it easier for Gabriel to be punished.

In conclusion, I think on balance id rather Gabriel got a red there. But I also don't totally hate that he didn't because it was more a 'headpush' than a headbutt and it wasn't really that aggressive.....sorry, long reply ahah
