He was asked if he was convinced by Liverpool, as a contender, and he said no.

Ha ha … I fucking bet you were !

The ball can touch a hand and not be a handball offense. They won’t allow you to score after doing that though.

Quansah’s goal was ruled out because they viewed macalister to have illegally handled the ball. In this case they probably wouldn’t have thought the seams for havertz so it was material whether havertz or nketiah got the last touch

Maybe the first three times he handled it were accidental, I don’t know about the other five though.

Have to say, this has been one of the most interesting seasons I can recall. So many good teams and so many interesting plot twists. I can’t remember sitting down and watching so many matches. I’m thoroughly enjoying it.

And it’ll be even better when we win it all!

Careful: you sound as though you’re buying into the media’s “narrative”, er, narrative.

The season is not meant to be a soap opera, although these days it does appear to be scripted. It is supposed to be a series of standalone matches, at the end of which the most consistent team is crowned champions.

Another part of this “storyline” is the “Gameday (or Match Week, or whatever) 16” which never used to exist in the good old days. It’s a form of subtle brainwashing, which is why I abhor it so much in our match thread titles.

Yeah. He was asked if Liverpool are contenders, and he said nobody is asking if Liverpool are contenders. The humour is in the contradiction.

Into the Christmas portion of the season and Everton have more wins than Chelsea.

Let that sink in for a minute.

No Haaland or Doku for Cheaty.

Come on Hatters !

I know 'Luton at home are no pushovers‘ but would be annoying if - out of Arsenal, Liverpool and City - we would be the only ones to drop points there.

Totally expecting City to score at least 3 today.

Man City are going to take out all of their frustrations on Luton, took them just two minutes to create a proper chance.

Small steps. If they can get to fifteen minutes without conceding , it’s on !

Would love us to sign paqueta from west ham

West ham and spurs have also won there. No other big team will lose points there. Arsenal were pushed but had an off night for them and the keepers crap

Gvardiol
One of the worlds best CB in the last two years

Signs for City to be used out of position

It’s why beating someone like Newcastle at home was important

Kaminski’s been one of the better goalkeepers by form so far this season.

Everton look the better team against chelsea

What is wrong with this Reece James kid.

West Ham and Brentford play some of the worst football in the league.
