Match Day Thread Premier League, Cups & Euro Watch

Thought Mount was very impressive for derby as well. One to keep an eye on, chelsea could have a player there

 

Let’s be honest, google is great.

Everton lost to ****ing Shrewsbury.....but we did have Nicolas Alexanderson in the side so at least that’s some consolation.

 

Like a true bitter

 

Was it his through-ball for the sending-off? Might have a cheeky flutter on Derby for promotion.

 

Well, you've got to be a giant to get....... erm, giant-killed.

Thought i had edited it before anyone could do that

Still was worth it

 

Everton were "giant killers" against Utd in the FA Cup final.

 

I heard Blackpool's 2-0 win over QPR referred to as a giant killing earlier

 

Mourinho: "We practise penalties and we see it in training and when we get past the sixth penalty I know we're in trouble with Bailly and Jones"

Fifa bringing in new rules about reducing the number of loan players allowed which will affect Chelsea more than most, now the Russian gangster has been denied Swiss residency.
He'll sell Chelsea soon, but he'll want his mega loan back before he ****s off back to mother Russia.

Roman Abramovich was deemed potential 'security threat' by Swiss police

"The Caraboa Cup is not a worry any more, we don't play until next season. It is the minor competition we are involved in. We want to win and we are disappointed."

The same "minor competition" he was bragging about winning in his first season at OT.

He said the League Cup was part of a treble of titles that season along with the EL and the ****ing Community Shield.

 

Mourinho: "The only truth is that I made the decision for him not to be second captain any more but there is no fallout, no problem"

So, what he's really saying is, give the bigger clubs as much time to win the game as possible, because that's fair.
Amazing that the hacks and TV interviewers never have the guts to laugh in face and tell him he's talking bollocks.

"Extra-time has been removed from the Carabao Cup this season, meaning games ending in a draw after 90 minutes go straight to a penalty shootout.

That was the case at Old Trafford and while Mourinho agrees with the rule change, he thinks it comes at a disadvantage to the bigger sides.

He said: "I told the players in the team talk before the match, the new rules, which I agree with, would put the favourite team in more danger.
"With a draw you had in the past 30 more minutes to play. Without extra-time you go straight to penalties and I think it goes against the team that normally would win the match in 30 minutes of extra time.

"Then you go to penalties and I never blame a player to lose a penalty shootout."

He added: "The Carabao Cup is not a worry anymore because we don't play again until the next season.

"It is the minor of the competitions we are involved in but I would lie if I say we threw the match away. No, we want to win the match and we are disappointed that we drew."

If a lower league team deservedly knock a big club out the losing manager should be dignified in defeat and congratulate his opposite number and the opposition team, but not this prick he always has a barbed answer with a sting in the tail.

 

Utd were easily the better side for first 10... then they got ran and pressed off the park.

they fall into this... lethargy? it's like the urgency goes out of them. I dunno.


Wilson's free kick is an absolute peach. yes been scoring tasty frees for years for u23s for us but that one is a bit special.

romero got sent off and Utd suddenly started playing.... again.. why?

then derby take lead and it's all tits up.

the pens were really excellent.. both sides until Jones.
