Fuck Off Back To The Little Leagues: EPL 21/22

Ramsdale has some strong Pickford energy - like he's playing on a hair-trigger. Always looks like he's just been in a scrap too.

Lovely Spurs goal on the break.

Reguilon attacking more has made a big difference to the level of threat.

It’s still notable how many completely unforced errors (passing to the opposition under no pressure, in particular), the defence and midfield are making though.

Spurs are very good value for the two nil theyve just gone up, effort and sharpness there even if quality not great

xp!

Fred with a deft assist at the right end just as everyone was writing his obituary

Whether that arsenal goal should've been given or not, surely Fred should've covered the goal when he saw de gea was down? Instead he runs away from it leaving no-one on the line

But yeah, tidy equaliser

Goal entirely De Gea's fault imo, a pathetic and cowardly display

The odd absolutely horrible pass from spurs, very strange affliction

Well this is fun

Apart from treading on his own keeper, Fred has been the best player on the pitch?

That is monumentally idiotic of a tackle

Fred is actually very good when he's not very bad

can't believe one drunk week ago i was bloviating about it being Cheslea's title to lose

We live in a trash reality. This ends with Chelsea signing Rice in January and winning something major

A landmark day: after the 3rd West Ham goal was the first time I'd heard any semblance of atmosphere in the London Stadium

Jota with the worst miss I've ever seen in my life

Looking like one of those days

I'm not sure at what point in the second half this match became this scrappy frantic thing but it's anxiety inducing. But that Jota shot earlier, Sa was caught way out the box and Jota breaks towards a keeperless goal, narrative dictates that he wins it against his old club in dramatic fashion, but oh apparently there's a different narrative going on, Conor Coady who has been unable to walk for the past ten minutes suddenly manifests for a goal line clearance

fffmfffs

Unbelievable stuff

What is it with Brighton too lol

It's Divock Origi, that's what he does. That is literally all he does, but still

Hey, Newcastle won a game. I telt yis, landmark day

Maupay 90+8 minutes

fffffffffffs

Fucking hell Mendy whats that

Jesus mount what was THAT

Horrific from motd commentator there

A beauty from lucas

I don't want get too overexcited about a goalless half an hour but Utd look like a completely different team

What to make of the modern professional football squad, eh

Cunts is what i make of it

Reverted to type this half :/

Oh well, baby steps

Spurs playing badly en route to a win against a team that dont look like they know how to score

Fredddddddd

fredemption

Having a minute's applause for a murdered child during a professional football fixture is completely fucking deranged right? It's not just me

The crowd chanting ‘we love you Arthur’ tips it over the edge. Was this every match in the top two divisions this weekend or just Midlands teams, as they did it during Coventry / WBA too?

lol it's fucking deranged alright!

they did it at the Wolves, it's utterly deranged, i'd assumed it's mainly a Midlands thing

probably less deranged than the poppy shit but still

Apparently also happened at West Ham and Spurs so I guess it’s everyone.

nice to know i wasn't alone in my response. deeply weird. think the same thing happened after soham but might have been while the girls were 'missing'.

leicester defending crosses hilariously badly.

Yeah I was trying to think if there had been any other comparable gesture for previous notable outrages, but couldn't think of any other than when they named the league cup after Baby P from 2008-10

ramsey should score there

also that "YOU WILL ALWAYS BE A BLUEBIRD" banner after the death of Emiliano Sala was a rather bizarre bit of recreational grieving

apparently the law is goalie deemed to be control of ball if his hand is in contact with the ball while it is on the grou
nd except if he has just made a save. so do michael oliver and the var team not know the laws of the game? or is there some other reason they disallowed a villa goal?

Only a matter of time before the dead child badge is the new poppy

don't give them ideas. amazed at least one of the goalscorers this weekend didn't take off his shirt to reveal a top with the child's face on it.

One of the details about this story is that the boy was a Birmingham City fan.
