To be fair, Aubemayang probably hasn't finished unpacking yet, so he's probably going to heading off for $$.
I wonder if A Madrid could arrange a loan deal for Diego Costa where he has to play for whichever team is playing the goons that week
Spursday Cup Nemesis. All those games played just to get as many UEFA ranking points as Spurs did, but earning probably 40m quid less at least. They could still finish PL 7th, in which case several of their players might as well remain in Russia once the WC final is over (as that will be near where their first EL game the week after will be) .
Tripps telling Dele and Harry that Arsenal got knocked out of Europa and then gets warned they're live, Dele then says "Tripps would've definitely said something!"
I know there's no sympathy because it's them, but the time wasting by the other Madrid team was disgraceful. And the ref bought it yet again. At one point Costa indicated he needed to come off, then took a shot, then sat on the ground "injured". This ruins European competition for me, but because us fans are so tribal we don't seem to mind because it's happening to someone else - but then it happens to us and unsurprisingly nobody is sympathetic. I'll post something in the refs thread too, but why not have the main stadium clock linked to the ref, so that the amount of time being added on is transparent? Then the refs will have to justify why so much wasted time isn't added on.
It's being reported that Arsenal are interested in buying Sokratis Papastathopoulos as part of an overhaul of that defence. That's gonna cost a few quid to get printed on the back of a shirt.
That’s their new revenue stream: get in players with long names then charge their idiot fans a fortune for printing their names on the replica shirts. I’m surprised Levy didn’t think of it first (Toby)
The headline when they keep a clean sheet will be something like "you can't get pasta Arsenal's defence" or if he give away the ball and Arsenal concede it'll be "he pasta the wrong player"
What are people thinking for the Chelsea v Liverpool game? Draw? Depends on how we get on against the Baggies, I guess. Mon The Dyche!
Would have been great to see their expressions last night or even at the end of the 1st leg. At least we now know where the milky bar kid buggered off to.
My season remainder goes thus : Spurs to win the next two. Chelsky to win the next two. Poool and Chelsky to finish equal on points, Chelsky in the EL due to worse GD. Poool to lose the CL final.
