How did Aubameyang miss from there?

LOL @ Arsenal

Ajax also out.
One less team for United to worry about.

 

always a pleasure, never a chore.

 

Fewer

 

That handball tho

 

Liverpool attempting to throw the title away tonight

 

Well, Arsenal fans will at least still have some bragging rights.

As will City, since Liverpool can't now beat their winning record

 

lol @ Liverpool

lol @Diggy

vincible so they are.

 

Only in the desperate minds of others

 

I can’t believe I miss these gems.

1. City’s record can be beat, by any team.

2. Their record was built on financial doping, so is meaningless.

unless you’re okay with cheats.

 

Diggy, you're better than that.

 

Don't think that had ever been suggested before, in any context

 

That what?

fair.

 

Stupid fat fingers!

Than what? I see nothing wrong with my post.

 

well I don't watch football much but I thought I'd watch the Villa match today. Turns out its not on any of the regular channels.
what a gip.

 

Wow, we're playing a 4-3-1-2 again.
Throwback to when Ole started and we weren't terrible.

Edit: I say that and then a terrible goal conceded.

 

Pickford obliges with an error of his own.

I don't get the playing out from the back stuff.
De Gea is a shot-stopper, not a ball-passer. He's not Ederson, who was bought specifically to play Pep's style.

Making De Gea try and short pass to the CBs instead of clearing it will lead to mistakes, he's not comfortable doing that.

 

This is it essentially. I think they see it as a slippery slope?

Upset at what they see is a circumvent of the 50+1 rule in Germany, which allows control of football clubs to remain in the hands of its members, the fans.

Hopp is the mastermind behind German software company SAP and he has invested heavily in Hoffenheim for 20 years.

So much so, that now the club is under his sole ownership and has been since 2015 after the German Football Association (Deutscher Fußball-Bund, DFB) granted an exception for Hoffenheim to follow the 50+1 model.

 

Both keepers redeeming themselves for their earlier mistakes.

Both sides unlucky with chances.

Needed to win today though, got City next week

 

That goal should have stood, but Sigurdson is a fool for just sitting there with his team attacking.

 

Everton got hosed!
