Arena "The Beautiful Game" - The Official JCC Football (Soccer) Thread.

Looks like Leicester are going top of the League.

I'm hoping Chilwell can at least get an assist in the second half, otherwise I'm going to start taking Chelsea players out of my fantasy team

 

I should just make this a scheduled post and use some AI Scripting

 

Lampard looking like he's well into borrowed time

 

Still no game time for van de Beek.
Bruno needs resting, don't know why given the tough schedule that Ole can't find more game time for Donny.

He's too good to just be a cup player

 

You struggle to break down teams where they drop deep and defend so Ole sticks with the in form Fernandes to enhance the chances of winning

I 100% guarantee now that if he had started with De Beek you have questioned why Pogba was chosen over Fernandes and also 100% guarantee that if you lose you would call out the "dodgy" decision to not start Fernandes in the first place.


You really do make me lol

 

It's descended into Farce though

Great goal but should never have been given as Rhodri was offside.

Penalty was the correct call but I'm still not keen on giving handball when the ball is effectively played into someones hand and Cash had no chance of moving it out of the way

Still a great goal though by Silva

 

I have no idea why that first goal was allowed to stand. 2nd, yes, his arm was extended. Always going to be given. But that first was absolutely pathetic. Dreadful.

 

so Pogba > Alli, right?

 

Looks like Real Madrid have been knocked out of the Copa Del Rey by a 3rd Division side.

Good season it seems for some other Spanish sides to win something, considering Barca lost in the Super Cup Final to Bilbao.

 

Spain seems as whacky as England at the minute.

 

When that discussion, wasnt Pogba suffering under Mourinho, whereas Alli is now suffering under Mourinho.

 

Isn't Alli a number 10 primarily?
Mourinho seems to have turned Kane into that for Spurs at the moment, or he doesn't use a formation that requires that position.
So it's up to Alli to win his spot back.

Pogba's problems have mostly been because of Pogba. He's playing great now because he's trying to advertise himself to other clubs so he can leave in the summer.

 

Liverlol

 

So. The chance to go above Liverpool by beating Leicester at home next week. Never has an Everton defeat seemed more certain.

 

I think the players may all belong to QAnon and have downed tools due to recent events.

 

Pope really should be England number 1

Good thing I have him in my fantasy team.

 

They're missing a trick if they don't do a PL Manager Royal Rumble type thing, since it's January

Dyche would probably win, he's 'ard
