Goddammit Liverpool.

We played a bunch of subs and kids and we still beat Everton and now we're still in this stupid Cup.

I was giving Devo a hard time about United not getting a result, any result even though they played a decent squad and didnt even muster a shot but Liverpool basically took a dive here against Everton's first team, basically daring them to finally get a win at Anfield and still ended up goddamned winning FFS.

Liverpool fans complaining about beating Everton because they're winning too much.

This truly is the darkest timeline.

I like the FA Cup. I think it's great and I'm disappointed that we ended up with a draw today.

No love for Mourinho's excuses?

Quote:
Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho slammed the VAR decision to award Middlesbrough their goal against Spurs and claimed the FA Cup ball is “too light” as his side drew 1-1 at the Riverside.

He told BT Sport: “I think this ball is beach ball. It’s too light. I don’t think it helps the players. But that’s not an excuse”

I thought Cam would be all over that one.

I was going to post that just so that no one else could dive in on it. It's ridiculous, but is that more ridiculous than the poor turf conditions, or shoveling only half the field? It's hard to say.

I think we can all understand that in this wacky wide, wide world of sports all kinds of shenanigans are afoot with the inflatability of balls and the general malaise regarding the consistency of sporting goods.

Lest we forget Brady-gate, the shaving of pucks or the great 'Jubulani' controversy of ought ten that shall forever taint Spain's sole World Cup Triumph with a giant asterisk.

And the Vuvuzelas....my God the vuvuzelas...

The vuvuzela doesn't seem to benefit anyone. Those things should be banned, regardless of what club/country you're supporting!

Hatred of the Vuvuzela can galvanize opposing fans together to unite against a shared enemy.

Lingard hires Raiola.

This antagonizes United’s leadership surely, and let’s dispatch him with Pogba.
####ing poison. I dunno how we’ll replace his ZERO production.

Way to go Antonio!

Quote:
Chelsea made an overall loss of £96.6 million last year, despite owner Roman Abramovich injecting £247m into the club.

The club's accounts for the 2018-19 season reveal they paid out £26.6m after sacking manager Antonio Conte and his coaching team in July 2018.

Phil Jones getting put on his ass by De Bruyne is about as predictable as it gets. Can't wait till we get the still photo later for what I'm sure will be an awesome Phil Jones face.

Kane surgery out till april

It's long enough now he needs to rest up, maybe get a few games in before end of season, be ready for the summer. Said before but he and sterling are the only sure thing starters we have, kane is the best passer we have, him in the center, sterling on the left, and rashford/sancho/odoi bombing forward is our best attack, tammy has been great but he csnt drop deep and his passing nowhere near kane's. Would need to change the whole system.

Spurs have allegedly signed Piatek from Milan for a total deal of £28m. I have no idea how reliae that is of course, but it's being reported, so might be true.

Lots of tier 1 places reporting they have made an offer, but the only one saying done deal is the s*n

Which is a negative tier

So we will see
