He’s had a rough go this season. A couple goals called back for offside, but lengthy stretches of injuries as well. I still think he’ll be good for us, assuming we play him.

Ref was a joke, VAR is useless

Jota should have been a clear red
Richarlison got taken down in the box on a cross and should have won a pen

Fair result though, right?

Spurs didn’t do themselves any favours, and honestly 3-0 down at 15 minutes it’s hard to say that you deserve anything. At the same time, Liverpool was pretty bad. What did we hit, 2/3 posts? That’s just luck. And of course the VAR decisions are pretty appalling. One thing I’ll say, is there was a foul by Skipp in the first half that should’ve been a red (I actually didn’t see it during the match).

To me, VAR should be cracking down on those types of things. Players are going to get severely injured (the Skipp foul was a leg breaker, and the kick to his head required stitches), and if nothing else that should be enough justification.

But in all seriousness Big Sam's rep is insane. He is getting £125,000 a game for the four games left, and he gets a £2.5 million bonus if he keeps them up. Can't wait to see him nicking draws against City and Newcastle with 5% possession.

I guess there is career potential in being a 'Relegation Specialist.'

Big Sam Allardyce and Pints of Wine!

Pochettino is out of his mind if he takes this job. Any coach with a somewhat intact reputation won't touch this one with a ten-foot pole.

If nothing else my ask to even consider the job would be starting at £15 million per. Just a grim situation right now.

Is there anything funnier than seeing an unsuspecting cameraman get smoked by an errant shot?

I think not.

Aubameyang 9 total touches

4 off kickoffs

5 from open play

Great call lamps, he definitely had that extra motivation

So I was hoping someone would do this to see how realistically possible it is. And the short answer is it is still extraordinarily unlikely, but here is the path to Chelsea getting relegated.

In short, they're not getting relegated, as fun as that is to imagine.
The sequence of events needed there is close to impossible.

Lets all just agree that all we really want is for Everton to get relegated.

They are second DFL...it could happen.
