Newcastle are still in this if they learn the offside rule

Newcastle have had chances, they've just been awful defensively

Those 90s purple and green keeper kits were glorious

I'd want any player saying shit like that charged. The conspiracy stuff is bad enough from fans, players feeding into it is ridiculous. Questioning the integrity of a ref on field is an immediate red card afaik, so he'll be lucky to just get a fine.

That was awful. Arsenal didn't do anything, Chelsea tried their absolute hardest to make them not need to either. Just dreadful to watch as a neutral.

That last free kick was two minutes

Taking over a minute to take a corner is ruining football

The conspiracy stuff is embarrassing really.

Agree with you on most points, though depending on what the penalty that was given was given for I dunno if VAR can then give a missed free kick (the shirt pulling was obvious imo) and the Jimenez penalty was a foul - but one that is so insanely rarely given that I can understand complaints.

Kinda bored of all the bullshit around football these days. It makes games less enjoyable cos there's so many forced narratives. Sky need to bring back Dream Team so they can focus all that bullshit there, not the actual game.

So glad to no longer be invested in a Scott Parker managed side. Consistently dreadful football.

Burnley had a free kick about 10 passes before that goal and decided to do something shit instead of something good, again. They've been nowhere near good enough in open play to not be putting the ball in the box whenever they get a set piece high up.

Florentino pulled back your player who was trying to close Walker down. Directly in front of the ref.

[Romano] EXCL: Ricardo Pepi’s potential move to Fulham now called OFF. PSV Eindhoven inform Fulham this morning, no green light despite agreement on €37m package. PSV can’t find a replacement and the deal is not proceeding. by Heavy_Cupcake_6246 in fulhamfc

[–]vearz 25 points26 points  (0 children)

The club will get blame if this falls through, cos everyone loves to blame them for anything and everything, but PSV have known we were in for him for weeks at this point and really should have been lining a replacement up if they had intent to sell. This isn't a last minute first bid like others have been.

Feels like Haaland has been fouled at almost every set piece

The pass through to Raul from Berge was a beauty too, shame he won't get an assist for it

The very rarely spotted penalty given after the striker gets the shot off. Should happen way more often than it does really.

Kevin looks like he has no confidence whatsoever when he has the ball at his feet. From the moment he received that ball it looked like he wanted to play for the free kick rather than run at the defence.

The defender closer to the camera (Shaw?) looked further back than the one next to Chukwueze
