Didn't he also have AZ Alkmaar level at the top with Ajax before COVID hit? His domestic record seems pretty exemplary considering the context of Feyenoord - equally if not more impressive to Amorim at Sporting. It comes down to whether that...

The Mourinho stuff is purely about him being at the game the other day though, right? And that's more likely because he still has a house in the area. If you're going for the more experienced winner type appointment you might as well do Tuchel...

Hard to say Sturridge was better because he had no longevity. But the idea that it was anything other than injuries that meant he's not around today is ludicrous. It wasn't a single season purple patch, Sturridge was a prolific goalscorer...

More like City will have to. This is something that should be in that myths thread; Everton are always good for snatching a draw or two every season against us. Have a look how many points they've taken off City in the last 8 years, particularly...

Considering the magnitude of the mistake I think it's only fair we get all the 50/50 decisions now until the end of the season. It's Spurs all over again and it's only right if everything is in our favour to make up for a potentially title...

I wasn't massively cut up about the decision yesterday. But having seen the replay this morning that shows that MacAlister gets the ball first and deflects it onto Doku's shin (which makes the studs into his chest totally unnecessary) I can't...

His foot was head height of a jumping Konate and Kelleher. It's textbook dangerous play and it should have been foul and a potential red card even missing contact. The refereeing team messed up by not reviewing that with VAR and then they messed...

Obviously there's a difference. They both point to bad refereeing by Tierney (and the VAR team) in two different respects. And the latter is worse, I can't argue that. He also misapplied that rule earlier in the game, so he's clearly a bad ref...

Absolutely. Tierney isn't a good ref at all. But short of expecting them to be competent, incompetence that balances out is the best alternative.

Tierney missing the high boot by Yates which was a borderline red card is as worrying as the drop ball decision.

Has to be said, if the trajectory of this thread itself is anything to go by - VVD is a donkey, a "worse defender than Phil Jones" > He's a good defender but he's not a top 5 defender in the league > He's a good defender but he's not the best in...

Is the level that much worse than the mid-2000s? The record for goals in a season was untouched from the 1990s but has been broken twice since VVD has been in the league, while Kane has been an ever-present. More goals are being scored than ever...

I think what gets overlooked when contextualising VVD in relation to other premier league greats is that you're asked to do a lot more now as a centre-back now than you had to do even 10 years ago. It's harder being a defender in the era of high...

Is this a cycling or off cycling year? Is it 2 years on, 1 year off, or every other year on and off? Do these PEDs stop injuries or cause them? The logic changes every year so I need catching up on what the signs are currently.

Van Djik isn't touching Chilwell, it's 100% contact from one direction. And Van Djik was still Chilwell's man so that foul was happening regardless of any offside.
