October 23, 20223 yr Granted... "it's Brentford", but Villa look like a different side today. 3-nil in the first 15 before settling into quiet control of the rest of the half.
October 23, 20223 yr Ollie! Ollie! Ollie! (Literally... took 4 shots and 3 rebounds before it went in!)4-nil in the 60th!
October 23, 20223 yr Villa players must have really hated Gerrard. Sent from my SM-G950U1 using Tapatalk
October 23, 20223 yr watching 90 minutes of this with no whistles at 8am was just a fucking blast this morning. arsenal/southampton was Texas vs OSU all over again. EPL officiating is as bad as it gets. Edited October 23, 20223 yr by shadow_operative
October 23, 20223 yr if the NBA worked the way EPL soccer does then the Lakers would be screwed every time they traveled to Sacramento. the famous team with the sexy play style from the glitzy city, on the road against the low budget, hard hat and lunch pail scrappers. you'd see sacramento throwing elbows, shoving people, wrapping their arms around guys in the paint with no call. Magic, and Kobe, and LeBron, et al, just getting shitted on by officials, can't get a call to save their lives. because that's how the EPL works. completely fucking stupid.
October 23, 20223 yr this one guy in particular intentionally elbowed gabriel jesus, was constantly wrapping his arms around Jesus, and then did this: and then finally got his first foul of the match with three minutes to go when he did this: seriously, that game today was a sham, and gbat official should be relegated to whatever league wrexham is in. that was not football. it was 90 minutes of WWE shithousery.

October 23, 20223 yr jesus christ, this isn't even the arsenal thread. goddamnit derka. Edited October 23, 20223 yr by shadow_operative
October 24, 20223 yr Well. He has a resume. Quote Aston Villa is delighted to announce the appointment of Unai Emery as the club’s new Head Coach. Unai joins from Villarreal, whom he led to Europa League success by beating Manchester United in the final in 2021 as well as the semi-finals of the Champions League last season. A highly experienced top level coach who has managed over 900 games, Unai has also previously managed in the Premier League during a spell with Arsenal, leading the Gunners to a Europa League final. He has also enjoyed notable success at Sevilla and at Paris Saint Germain. In Seville, he won three successive Europa League titles between 2013 and 2016 before going on to lift a Ligue 1 championship in France as well as two French Cups, two French League Cups and two Trophée des Champions. Unai will take over from November 1st after his work permit formalities are completed.

These. Emery’s a damn good manager and, unless Villa have a culture problem in the locker room like those post-Wenger Arsenal sides did, will turn them around. Great hire.
October 28, 20223 yr Yeah, I'm not so interested in all that stuff. I like the simplicity of watching the matches with little ancillary info going on. Would be cool if it was a feature you could turn off if you wanted to.

November 5, 20223 yr Cancelo blatant foul/red card in the box allows Fulham to tie City 1-1 in 29th minute. City will be shorthanded for 60 minutes

November 5, 20223 yr Example eleven million of how poorly officiated this league is. Truly awful all the time and now far just highlights their incompetence when they can’t even get it right after watching it over and over.
November 6, 20223 yr This spurs and pool game is outstandingly entertaining. Nice to watch some actual soccer after suffering that Everton shot yesterday. pool seems to have some sort of supernatural force field around their goal and it ain’t Allison.
November 6, 20223 yr Liverpool should petition to only have to play games against champions league quality teams. Always seem to show up in those and eat shit against bottom 14 teams.
November 6, 20223 yr On 10/22/2022 at 10:45 AM, Captain Ron said: I had been told that Liverpool could compete with Tottenham Fify
November 12, 20223 yr wow! brentford are two minutes away from taking all three points at the etihad. would be a huge result.
