Shame to drop points today after Jorginiho brain fart but thought Chelsea played well but still not ruthless in front of goal.

Is Keane’s sole purpose on tv now to troll former opposition players?

Another 2 points dropped against mediocre opposition. The 4 points dropped against Utd and Burnley will come to haunt us come May.

Messi winning the ballon d’or is as comic as it is ridiculous. Surely if it is being awarded for past glories, Maradona should have been in with a shout.

That said, I suppose Messi’s single handed destruction of Barcelona does deserve some recognition

I guess scoring 30 goals in la Liga and winning the copa america has more cachet than winning the bundesliga with a record goal haul.

Worst take ever.

20-0!

Last week: "19-0, wow, I doubt we'll see a scoreline like that again."

Edit: Forget it.

Shout out to the referee who still insisted on playing the four minutes of injury time.

I saw the 20-0 and thought it was a rugby match. Got to feel a bit sorry for Latvia.

Anyway - good to see Pep whining about how few players he has available. Only 14 or 15. Of the best players in the world...
Expecting the Stevie G bubble to get burst tonight. Almost nailed on dodgy VAR decision incoming with Mike Dean and Kevin Friend in charge.

Messi winning Ballon D'or is interesting as it could be argued even a bad year is arguably still better than anyone elses. He did also win the Copa America.

That said Lewandowski has been a Phenom and definitely deserved some recognition.

Messi winning the Ballon in the same week that Ronaldo is dropped to the bench by Man U is good fun though. His agent must be working overtime to keep the toys in the pram.

Getting him that long overdue move to Sporting?

Really not looking forward to the derby…🤢

Also ManCity having Barry Bennel take the stand in their defence against damages claims by the abused is a pretty epic low: https://mobile.twitter.com/DTathletic/status/1465953612719349761

Everton fans leaving Goodison with only 20 minutes gone! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣

big dunc and rafas relationship looks uneasy, can't imagine big duncs to happy having a red managing his team
got a bit sketchy for us there towards the end of the first half glad halftime came when it did

that salah and that jota goal tho.... quality

.

that Bernardo Silva goal was kind of delicious last night.

but thought Villa gave a good game. I would say the Gerrard bubble hasn't burst just yet.

Imagine a team that had both Silva and Mahrez in, and they were thought of as expendable.

Was Bernardo ever seen as expendable though?

Just seen it side foot controlled volley 😍😍😍

Signing Grealish is either "strengthening the squad" "adding depth" or "outright challenge for position" depending whether you are Pep, KDB, Raheem, Mahrez, or Silva.

Right?
I'll wait for the City fans to add proper insight, mine's only from remembering summer transfer nonsense.
