Match Day Thread General matchday thread.

that’s brilliant, tongue in cheek. Taking the piss and mixing clips of fans going bonkers. Love this stuff as it makes people think it’s serious.

 

It's from their official twitter feed bro

 

If he wins something with an exceptional generation of players they can be seriously considered best in the world. Fifa rankings mean **** all.

Yeah he won an FA cup which is an achievement. Less so when you relegate your club in doing so.

 

He is ****e mate. Roberto Di Matteo won something too.

Belgium aren't the best in the world btw.

 

Yeah, it’s a piss take. If you think that’s serious......

 

with a chelsea side packed with talent. He had Journeymen in his Wigan side.
PS. Belgium are No.1 ranked.

 

It is a piss take, but not for the reason you think.

 

oh, okay then.

 

It's a fairly even match...more so than the odds would suggest.

I'll be giving it a swerve though, would rather have bets on Leicester at 2/1 winning at our place than Burnley for example. That doesn't mean Burnley can't or won't win. There have just been better opportunities in my opinion.

Only bets I've placed on our games so far this season have been;

Leeds to beat Fulham...early pay out.
Wolves to beat Leeds...cashed out at 0-1.
Leeds to beat Villa....early pay out.
Leicester to beat Leeds....early pay out.
C Palace to beat Leeds...early pay out.
Leeds v Arsenal Draw....cashed out.
W Ham to beat Leeds...cashed out at 1-2.

Earlier this season I started a thread about how the team you know the most about is surely your own and I stand by that.

 

Let's just accept that I'm right and move on.

 

You've perked up, pinkie

 

Make hay whilst the sun shines innit

 

If you take any notice of the Fifa rankings then you're an even bigger idiot than I realised. They're simply not the best side in the world. We even beat them recently ffs.

Belgium are basically this generations equivalent of England mid 00's; massive underachievers compared to their talent.

 

You were decent yesterday, I was amazed at just how **** Chelsea were tbh though.

 

With our 3 first choice CB's out and Ayling still filling in there, expecting many long ball crosses into Wood for Burnley, our midfield will have to work hard to stop the balls going in, certainly a day for the best form of defence is attack, don't give them the ball. Would have preferred this game a month ago, they seem tohave found a bit of belief now.

 

chelsea had their worst game. I had to drink to block out how bad they were.

 

Chelseas inconsistency is ****ing criminal tbh

You can never tell if they'll play like league winners or relegation fodder

 

Bamford to have 2+ efforts on target. Ayling to get booked, Burnley to score less than 1.5

 

Yeah they were poor. Think they turned up thinking we’d be an easy push over, which we have been recently.

We look so much better with Martinelli and Smith Rowe in that team. Smith Rowe is a really composed midfielder, obvs still young and lots to learn but he’s for the raw talent.

Martinelli is real handful. He’s quick, strong and has got a real eye for goal. I’ve been saying for weeks that I just want to see Arsenal move the ball quicker, take defenders on and have some shots. And that’s exactly what Martinelli brings

 

That disallowed Barnes goal is some of the ****test refereeing I’ve seen for a long time and I watch a lot of Championship football.
