Other Games 2024-25

[Alex 36648]

To be honest I fucking despise Arsenal, their fans generally and Arteta and their priggish hypocrisy. And I’d rather Man City won the league again than Liverpool or Arsenal, who are the only other two realistic candidates imo. Plus it just shows what they’ve accomplished by trying to make it a closed shop, ie the rest of the established teams might have an advantage over the ‘other 12’ or whatever. But they’ve also locked in Man City’s advantage over them.

The only way that Gillette advert could be more American would be if someone opened fire at the 'father and son doing what they've always done' with a high calibre assault rifle.

Oliver could have done us a favour and sent him off, like. Calls himself a fan.

Hilarious but, the more I think about it, disgraceful and deserves a retrospective ban 👍🏻

Was the Gaul they had Vercingetorix?

Milan derby won by Milan 2-1 with two Milan fans scoring their goals and likely another Milan fan in NE England v. happy indeed  

 

Decent game, Tammy Abrahams started for Milan and I thought he did well but obviously at 1-1 he missed a gilt edged chance to be an all time Rossoneri legend but he put it wide because he’s Tammy Abrahams

arsenal were 2-1 up at the home of the champions and they found a way to bottle it.

 

i'd have taken that before the game, but we should have scored more. we lumped a few into the box but meat and drink for arsenal. they're a team of big buggers.

 

they 're supposed to have the best defense around. might be true. but when you don't leave the penalty are and you're all giants its hardly a masterclass.

 

a tactical masterclass would involve them carrying some sort of threat.

 

still they got a point and kicked rodri out of the PL for a while so job done. 

 

reminded me of that game arsenal whinged about versus stoke years back. stoke parked the bus and walcott had to be carried off. so the question is are arsenal stoke in disguise.

All the wankers will be out covered in jizz about how this is a masterclass by arsenal. 

 

can't be a masterclass they basically just parked the bus. 

 

a masterclass has to offer something more than parking a team of giants in front of goal.

i think throwing the ball at the gooner after scoring was dodgy. but the other 2 were fine by me :).

 

blue specs firmly on and here we go....

 

the so called first body smash was at the exact moment the gooner headed the ball. just to men shoulder to shoulder. didn't look great granted.

 

the second was obstruction by the gooner. as halland is charging into the arsenal half the gooner takes several steps to the side and into haalands path. haaland didn't care and went into him. if you watch it again ask yourself what the gooner was thinking as he stepped across.

 

oh and havertz should have gone for his forearm smash on rodri

We timewaste, we are know as timewasters.  Arsenal / Liverpool do it.  It's a masterclass.

I see Ian Wright is having a go at Haaland for launching the ball at Gabriel's heed at the end. 😂

 

Didn't Ian wright and mark bright when at palace try and get arsenal keeper sent off in the 80s by being utter cunts? Or am I getting mixed up? 

[Gemmill 49696]

Ian Wright was a right dirty little snide. I like him but what Haaland did is nowt compared to some of the stuff he got up to.

Aye, two-footed tackle on Schmeichel rings a bell.

he was famous for not cutting his fingernails and using them to pinch guys hard when the ref wasn't looking to try and get them to respond.

 

now that i read that... "oooh pinching! how hard are you?"

[Gemmill 49696]

Nails like Flo Jo by the time he retired.

I think them being down to ten men for over half the game might have had something to do with it.

for sure but they only defended. nothing more.

 

to me thats excellent defending,

 

but that isn't the same as a tactical master class as many seem to have claimed.
