    Fabianski was paying homage to Wenger by letting in that 2nd goal <laugh>

    I think Brenda’s a cock like most but I do feel he’s been done dirty by Leicester. They’ve been selling key players for a while and barely reinvesting.

    Tielemans likely buggers off in the summer and I doubt Maddison will wanna stay. Vardy aged 5 years over last summer too. Looking bleak after a very promising few years.

    You can sign players at any time of the year, just can’t register them until the window’s open.

    Chelsea making moves too. We should follow tbh.

    You can sign players whenever you want, you just can't register them until a window opens.

    Absolutely shocking goalkeeping and Coufal was about 5 yards deeper than everyone else.
    Pathetic club that just rolls over for everyone else but us. Essex ****ers.

    Ah ok got it.

    Obviously as a Spurs fan, I have never seen a player actually signing before deadline day, let alone when the window opens, so this was a new experience for me.

    I think he’s done a good job overall at West Ham.
    Finishing 6th and 7th the last two seasons, getting to the semi-finals of the Europa League last season and they still have a strong chance of going far in the Conference League this season.
    Their league form has been poor this year, though.

    But it does seem that, when expectations are raised and when he’s got to be more proactive, he either doesn’t want to or isn’t capable of it. He’s too risk-averse at times and doesn’t react quickly enough to the in-game situations. This is how he’s always been though, and has never shown a willingness to be more dynamic.

    Ultimately, I think this is probably his ceiling as West Ham manager. That said, I don’t know who they can realistically get in that would (from a results perspective) do better than top 7.

    I'm sure we did it once. Modric, maybe? Not ****ing often though, it has to be said!

    Talk on the main PL board is that Gakpo is massively overrated.

    He's obviously coming from a vastly inferior league and as I mentioned during the world cup, I never judge a player based on their performances in an international tournament. Anyone reckon he's any good?

    Yup.

    Chris Gunter too… slightly less as successful as Modric though.

    West Ham can't complain about how he's done overall, by any means.
    I think he's quite limited, though. Poor football and he burns players out.
    Scottish Big Sam without the exotic signings.

    You need to be convicted of rape to be a convicted rapist but you can still be a rapist with out being charged.

    Thousands of women have been raped with no one being charged.

    Saville was never charged or convicted of rape or abuse of children but he was a rapist nonce.

    I have read the police statement saying they were unable to take action against Partey cos of the law which meant they could not charge him as he and the woman (his partner at the time I think) were abroad when she said it happened. They also said the online abuse of her had to stop and that if the incident occurred a week or so later they'd have been able to charge him as the law was then changed.
    In effecthe couldn't be charged cos of a technicality.

    You say some weird things on this subject (I remember you claiming that the tape of Mason Greenwood sounded like a sex game between them)

    https://www.not606.com/threads/rival-watch.112743/page-3896#post-16153646

    ... I ain't sure if you say these things to wum but it comes across poorly.

    I did indeed say that about the Greenwood case but have since been informed that pictures were released to kill that opinion and have never said it since.
    I have questioned the calling of Party because of the lack of court case, what you have just written has amazed me and i find it hard to understand, couldn't he have been charged in the country where the offence happened?
    My stance on this is long lasting though, i hate people being called for something that has never been proved especially by some clown on a football forum.
    You may have noticed i have never questioned the City player being called, this is because there are multiple complainants against him and not a he said she said type of thing which should only be decided by a court and jury not the court of popular opinion which it seems would put anyone they don't like in prison.

    There are multiple complaints against Partey. Put your facepaint and red nose away.

    We don't know. He was arrested after complaints by two different women.
    One of them had her complaints dropped because they were overseas.
