  1. Football phrases that grinds your gears

    we're here at Stamford Bridge for Chelsea v Manchester United and todays referee is Martin Atkinson.
  2. 100 corners, no goals. Edit: 140 corners, 1 goal. 152 corners, 2 goals.

    please for the love of god stop half clearing every corner by taking out swingers.
  3. Rangnick gegenpress conference vs Palace (H)

    we got a DNA mention, Evra will be happy.
  4. Gary Neville - Pundit

    He'd be such a millstone around the clubs neck if he hadn't made it so abundantly clear how little he knows.
  5. What went wrong this year for Ole?

    It's not a sudden thing. It's 2 years of sub-par coaching and management coming home to roost. We reached a point where the players were either no longer able or willing to carry him anymore. Think of all the times, last season, we had to scrape wins or draws against teams who had way less...
  6. Ole Sack Watch

    are you sure you want to critique the club who won two Champions League titles after binning underperforming managers mid-season?

    They're literally not even good at the thing he brings them in for.
  11. Are corners really a good opportunity to score a goal?

    gonna have to say 'yes'
  12. Paul Pogba | 2019/20 Performances

    He's so good when he plays on instinct. It's the moment he starts second guessing himself and tries to do more than he should that it seems to go wrong.
  13. Maguire and Lindelof Partnership

    now that would be overpriced.
  14. The Mourinho Thread: Should he stay or go? | Sacked

    No, the last thing I would want to do is encourage more posting. A lot of people here DO care about football. They care enough about it to see when things are going in a good direction. They understand that recent performances are often a good predictor of future performances. Meanwhile you sit...
  15. The Mourinho Thread: Should he stay or go? | Sacked

    You care about neither if you can still back Mourinho.
