Football

If you hoof it, you're at least as likely to lose possession as keep it.

But at least it won't be in front of your goal with no defender or keeper out of place?

You can usually see it happening a mile off.

Thanks for explaining above people too 👍

Do Newcastle count as a big club?

Joe Linton should get enough yellow cards to get sent off twice in each game,but seems to get away with it.

My local village teams pressing is better than MUs

Can't argue with that about Morsy to be honest.

Beyond happy with 2-2 against Villa, a team I have a lot of time for.

I was out at a kids' party yesterday and didn't want to be stuck to my phone, so I turned it off and decided to try to avoid the score. Managed it until MOTD2, and was very pleasantly surprised, especially after we conceded a second.

Four very different draws so far, but our two at home have been immense.

On to West Ham on Saturday - seems like a good time to play them.

Andres Iniesta's retiring....

The gloworm

Sitting next to some Cockneys in a bar talking about football

“Yeah, Palmer is on fire”

“Who’s he play for?”

“Us you plonker”

(A wife interjects “Carlton Palmer must be getting on”. Is ignored)

“When did we get him?”

“Last summer, Man United didn’t want him”

Rubbing hands together “lovely jubbly”

Marvellous stuff

Anyone else waiting for arsenal to come on prime? Live at 6.30 is claimed but still no show.

I’m with you on this, teams persist with it sometimes even when they’re receiving a bad pass, the other team are high pressing in numbers and they’re increasingly shovelling a shit pass on to the next guy. Surely part of playing that approach is having the awareness when it’s going wrong and hitting a long get out pass?
My kids announced last night ‘why are Man Utd trying to play out!’. They were truly garbage. Bring in Roy Keane

Surely an hour and a half of build-up bantz is too much for anybody?

Also bring back the old TNT Goals Show.

Just tuned in now. it's rolling
Have you watched live anything on amazon before? Just hoping there's no ads during play

Obvs not

There's not. Coverage isn't too bad actually and the stats info is quite good and accessible whilst still watching (on the app anyway)

That's great news. Ta

Arsenal could get seven tonight.

Yeh seems ok coverage. I was hoping it was an earlier start hence being on ready at 6.30! I don’t watch much football, when did Havertz become decent?

When he joined a club with a decent team.

I hope this is a joke and not real life !

Have they won anything yet? I'll wait.

Pretty much word for word

🎣

That was too easy.

It was. I thought you’d ignore it to be honest.

Anyway, I think Havertz has always been a decent player but his previous coaches didn’t seem to know what his best position was. He’s benefited from consistently being played as a (modern) centre forward.

On a semi serious note what was Jesus signed for? Surely not to nail him to the cross?

Providing Man City don’t get a points deduction I can’t see Arsenal winning anything beyond a domestic cup this year. They’re pretty average going forward. Once teams know how to pack their midfield to stop them they struggle to find a way through. Time will tell but feel free to quote me on this come May.
