  1. Then you should have known in advance that he was going to miss!
  2. Why in the world would we play our worst technical player in a place where he is constantly under pressure but cannot afford to lose the ball?!
  3. The thing is, I imagine (and even read somewhere) that is rule is not made by the FA alone, but by the clubs and the advise of the referees as well.
  4. Barnes was never going to get charged. The FA rules don't allow it (although the interpretations of these rules seem more and more subjective with each incident). The system is fundamentally flawed and that is not the fault of the FA alone but the clubs and referees as well.
  5. What did they expect when they hired a ref from Liverpool to officiate a Liverpool vs Southampton match?
  6. The fee is normally low given that they agreed to a buy-back clause. Works for both teams. They get a real talent for a steal. For us, on the other hand, 4-5m extra are insignificant, but we do get to save a lot more if he manages to achieve his full potential and turn into a player than can be starter here.
  7. Don't you just love it when the wankers turn on each other?
  8. The actual FULL interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ip-rFwIeIeg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HplGCLR28VA
  9. Because that would only increase the ban to 4 matches. No because for him to get a retrospective bad, the ref would have to admit that he had missed an incident that was "on the ball" which he would never do.
  10. Which means that he'll be getting a serious injury in the next couple of weeks...
  11. No it goes to show very little because the sample size without him is almost negligible. And even if we had played 37 matches without Matic, those with and without stats are ALWAYS meaningless because there are literally countless factors at work. Football cannot be quantified like that.
  12. Even if they did, can you imagine what the spirit in the dressing room must be like? Even if they could play, I'm not sure the players are mentally prepared to.
  13. That dig at Wenger! Erm, cancer? Child abuse? Caging animals? Climate change? Crime? Censorship? Cyber bullying? Corruption? Capital punishment?...etc. I like this game
  14. You just had to jinx it, didn't you?! Wasn't it Soldado? And there was definitely contact from behind from Song.
  15. Yeah, we can definitely forget about him on the touch line against Spurs.
  16. The president was attempting to make something last minute, but if he really could do something he would have done so some time ago. They certainly look gone, but you never know, though.
  17. They had a really incredible team between 98 and '00. Btw, this isn't official yet. There is still some slim hope, by my understanding. But their game today is postponed because they can't pay for stewards and security!
  18. Gianfranco was with them earlier. The ones I mentioned were all at the same time or within 2-3 seasons of each other!
  19. He wasn't particularly bad, but didn't really impress in any way. Needs time and needs lower expectations from the fans.
  20. Certainly didn't help that we had no one centrally who knows how to smartly occupy the spaces in between to block movement and passing lanes. Should have just brought on Cahill at DM...
