I recall a couple of pushes that seemed to irritate him, but I may have missed that. He’s the only one in our team you think that would though, the rest are largely softies who prefer to be left to their own devices. I’ve played for 20 years with a team, and if that happened to one of our...

The ball was going in a different direction to where Bremer was and Openda charged the player first who didn’t expect it, so wasn’t braced for the impact. At the very least I was hoping one of our players would return the favour and crush the annoying cunt by charging him and landing on him...

Touché

The shit linesman called that for the player tripping himself who didn’t even call for a foul. As with the other decisions, the ‘French idiot’ was all too happy to defer.

I’m cashing out. I can’t take any footballer who is afraid of the ball seriously. He may be leeching a salary for many years to come or fobbed off on loan at the most.

Apart from a functioning brain required to position yourself correctly.

The majority of referees are spineless and the remainder are show ponies that crave the spotlight like Michael Oliver. Your expectations of that miserable species are too high.

This day will certainly live long in the memory. I wouldn’t blame the ref as much as the VAR booth. The moment they start showing those stills, they give the average ref little option but to go with them. He didn’t give any of those decisions on the pitch and let a lot go for both sides. Our...

He made a few overlapping runs where Sandro would’ve taken 10 years to get there, and did sprint back on their goal where Sandro would’ve jogged. That’s not a fair comparison, his quality is lacking in when he’s in attacking positions but that is to be expected.

No the half time changes don’t count as a slot.

I did say if !

Surely the more reason to make a half time switch as he can only make one allotted switch in the second half - ie 3 subs all in one go and he’ll have to wait until late to do it in case anyone else pulls up after that?

Largely controlled the game despite two injuries disrupting the side in the opening 10 minutes. Cambiaso had useful lazy attitude and couldn’t be bothered to track his man and it’s cost us. They’re clearly a threat on the break so we’re playing into their hands now if we commit men forward.

A guy with a history of injuries with some of those being knee injuries was bought and had more knee injuries during his time here, nothing to see here. Sadly we are stuck with this bum for another 20 months.

Then they ended up accepting it in a round about way with a free loan of Iling Jr.

It exists in Italy because the ‘top’ teams often do not have the quality or attacking approach to break them down, so it’s a more fruitful tactic than it would otherwise be in other leagues in my opinion. Makes logical sense to stay in the game and try to nick something in bigger games, so...

Created the only real opening in the entire game that wasn’t a counter attack when he spun his man, ran at the back line and laid the ball off the Koop, who skied it. Yes he’s a bit lazy defensively and doesn’t inspire confidence when defending 1 v 1 to the point Yildiz has had to always track...

I think it’s fair to conclude that Motta doesn’t trust anyone other than Locatelli to play that anchor role in midfield, so I didn’t fancy him making any change there today. We haven’t had an attacking plan in the final third for many years now, so it’s nothing new. Sadly with this new...

I’m all for sterile possession to control a game, but it doesn’t make sense to do it all game when it’s 0-0 and you’re at home.

Mom’s spaghetti.
