Dark Munster

After so many "must-win" matches this season we've finally arrived at the real one.

So true. And not to mention the mind-numbing incompetence of not bringing in goal-scorer over the past 4 windows (instead selling JRod, loaning out Gallagher, and spending £20m on the clown's mate, a League 2 level flop). Heads indeed need to roll, the leading ones being those 2 muppets Beaker and Bunsen.

Actually I'd rather forget that, thanks.

Well we got one, but it feels like a loss doesn't it?

Exactly this. In North America they use video replays, and measure each game (basketball, hockey, am. football) to the second. Here we're amateurish with timekeeping and keep dragging our feet with VAR. And to make it worse, here the consequences of shit ref decisions/timekeeping can be devastating: we all know the potential financial disaster of finishing bottom three in the PL. Ironically in North America where they're professional in reffing/timekeeping there are no negative consequences of finishing bottom (no relegation, and in fact the bottom clubs get rewarded with a high draft picks!)

5-1 I think, but anyway Spurs had nothing to play for either. In fact they had just lost their chance of finishing first with a nasty draw against Chelsea, so were completely deflated. OTOH Swansea will have everything to play for (unless we're already down by then).

Not bad by the average Essex bowlers.

And now there's no reason for him to not field his strongest possible 11, in stark contrast if they were to have a Europa cup final 3 days later.

Hard luck Arsenal. Now make Wenger proud in his last PL games.

1-0 down at the moment. Far from over of course.

If we survive let the mocking begin!

I'm giving that one to Lovren.

And Lovren taking the deciding penalty like this:

Judge Redmond if/when he plays on the right. Anyway, back to the atmosphere....

I think you answered your own question in the first sentence with the other two. The problem isn't Bertrand, it's Redmond playing on the left.

That's what we did, and we were unlucky to lose. One of the clown's (extremely) rare good games.

Didn't McManus and Rossouw miss a large chunk of last season for the same injury? Just bad luck, or something they should take precautions for in practice?

True dat.

Reading between the lines it appears he knows the square root of **** all about football, and believes all the bullshit from Beaker and Bunsen. Hope I'm wrong.

P.S. Puel should be invited, so he can laugh and mock the "winner".

I think they should have a worst player of the season award ceremony. It'll be more fun, with lots of contenders to choose from.

At least they won't get relegated. In fact they get rewarded with a high draft pick. We could learn something from North American sports.

"The keeper Willy Caballero made a glaring mistake," Hughes said. "I don't know how they made that decision so quickly, Charlie Austin did nothing wrong.. "If ever there was a situation for VAR to step in and say we probably need to review that I would have thought that was the opportunity to do that." https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/43772431
