The Fish

Can just imagine you in your Mindy Project jimjams, bellowing into the night sky as the jets disappear into the distance "Hey! I thought I told you 'NEGATIVE GHOSTRIDER THE PATTERN IS FULL!' ??" They yet disclosed why the Air France was off course and unresponsive?

What was it in the end?

Went a bit quiet when I showed how often the team with the worst defence goes down.

CT reckons we need a striker.

Didn't we have an English manager for the majority of this season? This season where we've been in the familiar position of top of the injury charts? Or doesh Shteve McClaren not count becaushe he'sh fluent in Dutch? Shmoke and a Pancake?

Hmm, dunno. I see genuine potential in both players. I think Mitrovic can be a monster if he gets the right service and support. I can see Perez growing a lot under a manager of Benitez's quality. AM is big, strong, aggressive, sure. But he's also got good instincts in the box and a good awareness elsewhere on the pitch. Can score with head or feet and isn't ponderous either. AP is slight and short, but he has good technique, has a predator's eye in the box. They're marked improvements on Ameobi, Lovenkrands and Nolan, who scored for fun in the Championship. If we stay up, sure I'd love us to add some more quality across the board, but who wouldn't want to buy better players? I think the priority isn't the forward line, it's Left back, centre back, centre mid and left wing.

I'd be staggered if he did. Sure the rivalry is different (half & half scarfs at a derby ffs), but it's not different enough. imo

Pass completion, successful passes, duels won. If he were significantly worse than Cisse at passing the ball to his teammates his pass completion metric would be low As would his successful passes. If he were losing possession in tackles his duel % would be down. My point is that the game we're now playing under Rafa has Cisse moving into the channels, rather than central like Mitro. Next season, Cisse should be moved on and Mitro should be played with Perez & Townsend running the channels. We'll be able to dominate the centre of the park in the Championship with a midifeld of Colback, Shelvey + 1 Other. I use Squawka.

That he struggles to hold the ball up.

I was worried they were going to have Quentyn Martell's fate befall Tyrion for a moment, but then for the same reason I was sure Snow would be resurrected I was suddenly sure they wouldn't off Tyrion either. Regardless of the storylines, those two actors drive the show imo

This film nicely sets up movies for Black Panther and Spider-Man, it pulls Bucky and Ant-Man into the mainstream MCU, it establishes device plots that will be used again (the Raft chief amongst them) but does through a Captain America viewpoint. Avengers deal with global annihilation events, not politics and policing. If it was an Avengers movie, more would have had to made of the absence of Thor and Hulk and the new Avengers (Vision, Scarlet Witch, Falcon) needed to be integrated asap ahead of Infinity War, but don't need standalone movies. Also, Chris Evans and RDJ have a certain number of films on their contracts, so it makes sense to have Cap complete his trilogy, keeping him free for cameos/appearances in other character's movies. Rather than a tacked on movie that doesn't really push forward his story arc, or that of the other characters either.

1st 19 games 2nd half of the season:

Seen his quotes about "foreign coaches" and injury lists? Guarantee he votes UKIP, because 'it just makes sense'. Well, it would wobble, but it would not fall down. Kind of looked like the one on the far left.

We used your pull-up bar/sex swing without asking and we might have knocked over that mannequin with CT's face... Sorry, is that ok?

and Lascelles

No way would he take the Everton job. Fans wouldn't want him, he wouldn't want them, it'd be a car -crash.

It could. But in our eagerness to find succour for hope we concentrated on Spurs being out of the title race before we met. They'll definitely be wanting to finish ahead of Arsenal, right? I'm honestly not trying to be too negative, and if we were level on points I'd have confidence, but as they've both got a game in hand, I still think it's in their hands and we're down.

I'm refuting your statement, not Rafa's decision to start Cisse.

sunderland are difficult to beat and I can see them going the rest of the season unbeaten. Not sure I can see them winning many though. Trouble is 5pts might be enough. If they draw with Chelsea and we beat Villa on Saturday, we'll be 3 points ahead of them. If they then beat Everton that means, we have to better their result on the final day of the season. Can you honestly see us doing that?

The three big set pieces didn't disappoint, but I'd be surprised if they did these days. My lass who I've dragged along to a few of these loved it as well, and she wouldn't recommend it if it was shit. Definitely got me hyped for the new Spider-Man and the Black Panther movies too.

Don't joke about shit like that.

Criminal isn't it, for the want of a competent MD we could have been enjoying an entertaining Premier League for a change, able to look forward to a brighter future under Rafa Benitez
