Guess we will see lots of this shit football from teams until, or if they ever, reach the 40 point mark in the table. Money, as we know, runs football now more than ever. The impact from that, is the gulf in funds allocated between the Premier and Championship leagues. Hence, managers are too scared to express any footballing beliefs they may, or may not have, and sacrifice them for status survival.
I understand in a way, what is depressing is when a team is parking the bus at 2-0 or 3-0 just to avoid issues on goals difference
Anyhow been entertaining myself with Dortmund and Wolfsburg
Must be a stimulating match.
Leicester 1-0 Maddison.
Wilson should have been booked for simulation.
City team announced. We knew Jesus and Walker were missing due to covid and 3 mores.
Notable absentees are Laporte, Ederson and Torres, who much be the other three with Covid.
Hate to say it, but come on Chelsea!
Edit: mendy out too, but he’s their Keita, probably injured not covid
Mendy also broke quarantine rules on NYE, and his punishment is a spot on the bench - shows just how serious City are when it comes to making sure their players follow the rules.
Curious Newcastle subs, taking off Joelinton and Almiron, down a goal. I thought Almiron looked their most dangerous player in transition.
Leicester 2-0 Tielemans, not much hope of a Newcastle comeback.
Andy Carroll makes it 2-1.
Nice Andy, a goal once every 2 years, well worth the investment.
Should have brought Carroll On earlier. 1-2 FT.
Haha, he had all day to take that shot, then almost scored another moments later. Can he be lured away from his home club to save West Bromwich Albion’s season?
He and Jonjo put LC into a panic, had them just blasting long balls out of their half.
Time for Werner to show Liverpool what we “missing” out on.
With the chances Mane, Salah and Firmino have missed in the last few games, obviously not much!
A draw best result here, with injuries and sending offs.
Bobby don’t score many but he’s ahead of him.
Seemed as much of a pen there as Pogba’s; i.e., neither was a pen.
Like watching a game of sunday league football so far. Crap.
