I was being facetious you clown. If you couldn't tell from 'He was obviously praising his physical conditioning as gorillas are one of nature's finest specimens.' then don't read the Onion, it might hurt you.

I actually saw the article before it was taken down. Everyone is quite rightly upset about the gorilla comparison, but there was a lot of awful shit in the 'article' besides that. The subtitle of the image of Barkley next to a gorilla was something like "Could Barkley be the missing link between man and ape?". That 'missing link' line has a terrible racist history. It's very hard not to interpret it as racist. It also had a bit full of bigotry about those ghastly poor Liverpool citizens  who can only make money by selling drugs.

But let's assume that Barkley was not biracial and that the article was not racist for a second. How is it okay to publish something like that? Is this journalism? What is even the point?

I wasn't being serious choo

Well, I expected Spurs to beat B'mouth quite comprehensively tbh. It's from next game week onwards where they'll start facing teams that can actual make them drop points. Sure, they're in good form, but you've got to be kidding if you think they won't drop points in their last 6 games. I bet they will.

Watched Bournemouth roll over and have their bellies tickled yesterday, a pathetic performance. I didn't expect them to win but a bit of fight would of been nice.

Absolute thundercunts, they channel their inner Atletico Madrid against us and then play like Aston Villa against the Spuds, hope they get a 300-point point deduction at the start of next season.

Exactly. But if they dont, then all we can do is congratulate them because it will be well deserved.

However, I still maintan my belief that winning all our 4 home matches will de enough to win the league. Meaning Spurs will have to lose only once in the next 6 fixtures!

Brighton promoted to the Premier League.

Gonna be funny if Newcastle end up in the playoff spots.

Anybody watching the arsenal vs Middlesbrough game?

I can't watch it but according to the PL app, it seems arsenal are playing 3 in the back, possibly with Monreal and the Ox as wingbacks.

Was wondering if this is true or if they just have the formation wrong? And how does the Ox look as a wingback if he is there?

That is the setup they're playing. Ox got a yellow card inside the first 3 mins, but has been decent since.

Can't believe how times have changed.

Arsenal wants us to win the league so it won't be Spurs and now I root for Arsenal so they have something to play for at the Lane.

Not that it's not enough as of now since it's a NLD but with Arse's current form..

Would be a really good game to watch to see the Ox there and sanchez in a similar formation to ours. I'll have to catch it later

probably the only time i've wanted arsenal to beat a  bottom of the table team. So they have more hope of top 4 going into spurs. Also so mborough are relegated by the time we play them, so we can fuck them over easy
