[ITT] Richie vs Richie

 

At least you aren’t all over the place like Richie. You’re more a Pogba-Pogba.

Although Richie’s last sentence, and his need to add it says a lot.

“Out, damn spot!”

 

Well Huddersfield's keeper made save of the season, that was insane.

 

Sorry let me try it again

 

Not sure why MOTD decides on Save of the Season before the end of the season.
Because exactly this sort of thing ends up happening

 

Question for you all across the pond ...

With City setting the record for most points in a Premier League Season, is there any clamor about getting to 100 points on the season, which they would hit with a win in their final game? 100 points is a nice, round number and the kind of thing American and American sports "journalists" would clamor over and hype up. Is there any care at all about it over there? Or is it just pretty much meaningless?

 

Also, if your grandmother lives in the DC area, hide her. Wayne Rooney is coming.

 

Shelvey for WC squad

 

100 points is only significant in that it's a record total.
Maybe City will have it printed on things, but I don't know how big of a deal the media will make of it.
Maybe they will, it's the only thing to talk about before FA & CL finals

 

Richie was at least right that Barkley is **** too. Chelsea transfer policy lol

But Rooney has been **** for like 5 years. No surprise he’s now going to the MLS where he will also be ****

Basically I usually tend to be right all the time folks

 

Usually...tend to be...all the time.

You totally richied that one, @epic

 

I did that on purpose!

 

Did you type that post with your shin?

 

Much like Chelsea before them.

But City were juiced last season & didn't do well, so Pep should take some credit for getting the team to adopt his style effectively.

 

Poor Pep, only had to spend hundreds of millions in the summer.

 

That's like 1.5 Pogbas

 

And several VvDs

 

Nah, VvD is worth much more than Pogba-Pogba.

 

Sent in to BBC Sport, sums it up well -
"The abject performance of many Manchester United players tonight proves that they believe Jose Mourinho has already decided on his starting line-up for the FA Cup Final next weekend"

 

Given we’re comfortably second, I can forgive the players for taking it like a practice game. There’s a final and a wc on the horizon. Beats must-not-lose stress on the final day.

 

You don’t enjoy it? I don’t underst...

Oh.

Oh.

 

Can't shake the feeling of BVB losing by 3 or more and Neverkusen making up the GD to nip the CL spot
