  1. Champions League — quarter-finals and semi-finals draw

    You can't just run past someone, kick your leg out and boot them in the shin then throw yourself over and claim you were the one fouled ffs :lol: Excellent refereeing.
  2. Saka vs Foden vs Palmer

    Didn't Foden bang in a hat trick against your team last season? :lol: Unless you're suggesting that games against Man United are now no bigger or more special than a run of the mill game against the likes of Crystal Palace and Everton? :nervous:
  3. Top 5 biggest Football clubs in the world.

    1. Real Madrid 2. Man Utd 3. Barcelona 4. Liverpool 5. Bayern Munich/Milan
  4. Cole Palmer | Chelsea Player

    I like Palmer but I don't think he's anywhere near the levels of those guys to be mentioned alongside them. I actually thought he was pretty poor tonight if you ignore just the stat line. Just about every pass and shot he attempted was blasted off the defender right in front of him.
  5. How good is Kevin De Bruyne?

    I think he is too but I'd contest that it's not close. Bernardo Silva is a fantastic footballer and with all the off the ball/defensive stuff he provides, I'd say he at least has an argument.
  6. Give me your best football/player portmanteaus

    Robbery is the gold standard of these. Nothing will ever come close.
  7. Harry Kane | Bayern Munich player

    IMO the best player in the world right now although I'll hear arguments for Bellingham. Just love watching him play. It's rare to see such a good goalscorer also be such a complete overall footballer.
  8. VAR and Refs | General Discussion | Forest go into meltdown

    VAR is great. The standard of refereeing being at an all time low is the problem. My one gripe with VAR is that slow motion videos and freeze frames provide no context and make everything look worse than they actually are. Referees should only be shown replays at full speed and nothing else. No...
  9. Erik ten Hag - Manchester United manager

    If I was in charge I'd sack him. The Glazers aren't responsible for the boring football or the atrocious results whenever you play anyone half decent. Managers with less resources than ETH get a tune out of their players. He should too.
  10. Neil Lennon

    :lol:
  11. Scottish Football 23-24

    The Old Firm clubs sure do benefit equally from referees, huh. Only one team in Scotland didn't concede a single penalty last season. And don't tell me it's because Rangers are so attacking that the opposition are barely in their box to receive penalties because statistically Celtic were more...
  12. Scottish Football 23-24

    It really wasn't. By letter of the law it was a foul. Your own team benefited from this recently: Unless you think that was really a penalty to St. Mirren? Remember Morelos v Dortmund too? Don't you think it's interesting that referees continue to give these decisions? It's almost like...
  13. Scottish Football 23-24

    You've got to be taking the piss. The same officiating crew shafted us 2 weeks ago in the cup at Kilmarnock. The guy who assisted Kilmarnock's goal deliberately elbowed Greg Taylor and only got booked for it. He then exploited the space left by Taylor who was off getting treatment to cross in...
  14. Bye bye Van Gaal | Really enjoying managerial retirement

    What's even his point here? One of Argentina's goals was a result of an unbelievable pass from Messi. Beautiful football. Their equaliser was from a set piece over the allotted time in added time and the amount added on was very favourable for them in the first place. It was all rigged for...
  15. The put some respect on Sterling's name thread

    Bernardo Silva and Mitoma were sold? I'd say Grealish is a better dribbler too. Eze and Olise at Palace are also very good.
