also cos I have barely paid attention I had assumed arsenal were strolling the league cos city and lfc were regressing and I hadn't fully appreciated their p fucking outrageous points total so far. so kudos.

xpyeah fabinho really can't run now, I mean he never could but now he REALLY can't.getting misty eyed for the much derided hendo/gini/milner days.

gapko will probably be great but he seems unnecessary.

also brighton are legit v good and as far as I can tell v well run, manager falling out with player spat notwithstanding.

Feel like sacking Klopp would lead to a load of other departures and put Liverpool back in rebuild mode for maybe five years or more, otoh with some luck and some good buys over the summer they could be back in contention next season, so hope he's staying.There is of course the "selling to Qatar" question hanging over everything but trying not to think about that.

can't see Liverpool ditching him and if i was them i wouldn't, but he's short on excuses at the moment imo

They're never going to sack him.

actually watched a whole game for a change. lloris horrendous for the first goal. arsenal were properly good first half and spurs huffed and puffed 2nd half. spurs fan who kicked ramsdale in the back at the end was as half hearted and craven about it as his team and manager. erik dier's post match interview was a study in somnolence. oh and richarlison still a wanker.

Can't recall if there are any Villa fans itt but you have reason to be excited about getting Jhon Duran from Chicago. String, fast fwd with tons of potential.

Yeah I think on aggregate we had no idea who he was until four hours ago and our curiosity is piqued, and we also really want to sign Matteo Guendouzi or whatever?

Zinchenko definitely looked offside on the initial ball, which they didn't appear to check?
Arsenal deserved the win though. Utd just invited too much pressure for the last half an hour

bielsa at Everton would be hilarious. managing the most unathletic team in the league would break him surely. or the players.

Case against Mason Greenwood haz been dropped. I didn't really follow all the original details of the case as what I did read was quite sickening. Would be very uneasy about seeing him play again though
― o shit the sheriff (NickB), Thursday, 2 February 2023 17:39 (one year ago) link
Has not haz
I really really hope the club is looking into how to terminate his contract as quickly as possible

Mason Greenwood has had all charges against him dropped following the "withdrawal of key witnesses"

hoping the club do the right thing, but don't really trust them at all. one good thing is they don't urgently need him as a player at the moment, so i'm hoping they realise his toxicity vastly outweighs any footballing benefit of retaining him.
― o shit the sheriff (NickB), Thursday, 2 February 2023 23:05 (one year ago) link
i mean this should not be a footballing decision at all, but sancho is back, martial is back, two decent attacking players secured in the january window, rashford in the form of his life, antony finding his feet, just get rid of the guy asap
― o shit the sheriff (NickB), Thursday, 2 February 2023 23:09 (one year ago) link
