Rival watch

p.s. Another hat trick for Harry today?

 

They're playing a relegation battling team in the 3rd tier, so it wouldn't surprise me.
He may not actually get on the pitch, though.

They're away to Leipzig, who are a point behind them, on Saturday.
Then they've got a Champions League game in Copenhagen on Tuesday.
Resting him tonight would be sensible, as they still should win easily.

 

Be interesting if Tuchel can do what many of our managers have tried to do, but failed

 

Get 90 minutes out of Ndombele?

 

Send Chelsea down a spiral of depression?

 

Because every day has to have some sort of ****storm for Chelsea and/or Man Utd.
Added bonus: he wasn't even in the squad, but the bloke that replaced him got sent off.

 

The Ajax v Feyenoord game that was called off the other day was finished today.
It recommenced at 0-3, finished 0-4 and allowed a record to be broken:


It's probably the slowest hat-trick of all time, too.
Got two on Sunday and one today.

 

Fergie Time+

 

Arne time. Sounds like something from The Terminator.
Next bald manager in Manchester?

Villa's male and female teams have got an issue with their kit:

Brentford ****ed their kit off a lot last season because of this, apparently.
It's especially bad for the women, for obvious reasons, but it's just poor overall.
The players are carrying a load of extra weight for no reason.
How did this not get dealt with in pre-season at the very latest?

 

Ajax tonked 4-0 at home by Feyenoord today, apparently playing their B-team

Bloody hell have they ****ed up badly this season

 

****ing hell. What a mess.

 

I see Brighton are playing against their B team in the EFL cup this evening.

Didn't know that was allowed under the rules.

 

What're the odds that Ipswich get the book thrown at them for fielding a weakened team (which still won...) in the Season Killer Cup last night, but nothing happens to Saltypool or The Sheikh Mansour Team for doing the exact same thing?

 

Never seen Gattuso in a suit before.

 

Some interesting subs tonight….
Brooking on the bench for Chelsea - desperate times call for desperate measures.
Dobbin on Everton’s bench - which shows that not every donkey is an automatic selection for them
But the real blockbuster is Sweet for Arsenal

 

Coventry is on the bench for West Scam

Surely that's against the rules, bringing on a city with a population of 345,000 to try and see out a match

 

Don't be silly. It's only the team that's on the bench, not the whole city.

 

We can't talk. We have England in our Ladies team
