Football

Don't understand. What is problem here?

Bloke got injured with claret going everywhere and borrowed a phone as he wanted to see how bad it was.

What an outrage.

Burnley have really made it to the big time now, "fan" at Burnley v Man Utd at the weekend

Strong hat game.

George Weah is President (elect!?) of Liberia!

I loved him as a kid. I used to watch Transworld sport back in the day, that was my introduction to Weah. I also went on a school skiing trip to Italy where we watched two Milan games at the pizza place in the village and remember being in awe!
Anyway on my return I got an AC Milan shirt for my birthday which I bought XL and wore it in to my twenties.
Anyway I wish him every success!

doh ! after the lord mayors show and all that

i'm putting a £5 on swansea to win the league

Good result for the Swans tonight. We've been playing much better since Carlos has taken over. Maybe we'll now stay up, but it's always the hope that kills you.

How come the second best team in the country are now fourth?

Because Spurs missed their chances on Sunday.

Because the table is slightly biased as the teams in 2nd and 3rd had an easier first half of the season. Let's see how it looks at the end.

Shame we were unable to put a decent gap between us and the chasing rabble but thats life. A miserable Monday in Wales.

Horrible football to watch last night, where is plan B? Maybe we need Peter crouch.

Nobody does boom/bust better than Liverpool. And Van Dijk played like shit last night as an extra cherry on top.

Mkhitaryan is quintessential Arsenal

Rank mediocrity?

coutih- who ? - oh

he's what we needed to smack in a freekick from 35yds or score from outside the box

That pot belly.

How much is he on a week?

40 Greggs Steak Bakes and a family pack of Pom-Bears.

You would have thought that, with Coutinho gone, the commentators might finally be able to pronounce Firmino's name correctly. It seems they can't...

Pretty sure its not real:

Or rather its not there anymore if real.

Who was the cyclist who always came back after winter break fat and then lost it? Ullrich?

I think he got a but chunky in the off season... https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/3966358/henrikh-mkhitaryan-manchester-united-kit/ (pls excuse the Sun link)

Its real. United posted it and then deleted it after criticism of his off-season regimen. It later emerged that the photo was actually taken at the end of last season when he would ideally be in decent shape.

Anyway, hopefully he can fulfill his lifelong dream of taking a massive dump at the Emirates.

Gonna have to take your word for it. I blocked the Sun, Express and Mail a year or two back (I can undo the block but don't want to break my streak). One of the best decisions I ever made.

Interesting list of most indebted clubs in Europe.
