Rival watch

You're the one saying it wasn't luck, not me.

But it's not a binary decision between 'luck' or 'something sinister'. You're creating those options. Sometimes officials make **** decisions. They do that every game. I've never denied luck played a part, but that's with every team which wins silverware. I'm saying to view luck as the overriding reason is foolish.

So it was luck, then?

I never said luck didn't play a part. I said it's naive to view and talk about that as the primary factor for winning the game.

Goals by Reyna and Haaland. Assists by Bellingham and Sancho. All born in England, coincidentally.

I was informed very early that Arsenal's luck began with giving the Liverpool chairman a backhander to vote them into the,then,Div 1. just after WW1.

2 yellows been upgraded to red by refs looking at the monitor, thought that the Brighton one was a bit harsh but can understand the decision. The Christiansen one for Chelsea spot on VAR working well though its worrying that the ref (Tierney) got it wrong to start with.

Michael Oliverpool is on the VAR, there is no chance he tells the referee to take another look if that was VVD on Werner.

How much was Kepa ?

How much was Kepa ?

Too much, even if he was free. He's genuinely awful.
There was some stat the other day that he'd conceded something like 9 of the last 13 shots on target that he'd faced.
You'd expect better than that off some 4th tier keeper.

Chelsky might have got something from that game if they
had a proper "penalty / tap in merchant" like Kane.

That is how much top comedy gold costs today on the open market.

Fat Frank insisted on them playing out from the back, then got arrogant & refused to change it after the sending off. it was obvious from the start that would bite them in the arse eventually and it did.

Youre welcome btw lads.

just watched highlights of Southampton V Spurs, **** me someone should go after that farce be it the manager, the defence or the board.

Spurs scored 4 identical goals and could have had more but nobody at Southampton seemed to notice what was happening

Anyone else think Graham Potter goes massively under the radar when people talk about good/ up and coming managers?

Done wonders in Sweden, pretty well in his year at Swansea and seems to play some good stuff with Brighton on a budget that’s peanuts in comparison to most of the league.

I think he’s a good manager but I also think he’s probably the Eddie Howe of the next 5 years. I’m not sure he’ll ever step up.
