[McNamara That Ghost...]

Wolves 2-3 WBA, FT!

NES. :haha:

Fat Sam going to do it again?

[Globalgunner]

Nuno has clearly lost the plot. In his defence, he lost his best striker and sold the other goal threat to Pool. He needs to shave his beard and have a good think

i'm still surprised Wolves didn't complain more about Luiz's involvement in the Jimenez injury - from memory Jimenez was right under the ball but Luiz jumped sideways a metre or two to cause the clash of heads, it it'd been the other way round i think a lot of our fans would've been angry at the other player

[McNamara That Ghost...]

West Ham 1-0 Burnley, Antonio.

Leeds 0-1 Brighton, Maupay!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Cavaleiro. :haha:

What a miss.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Robinson sent off for Fulham. :doh:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

How was that a red and Shaw's recently wasn't? :wacko:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

It's so weird seeing Wayne Bridge with grey hair coming through.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bif missed a sitter, offside or not.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Aina. :haha:

WTF was that?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Tammy is on, didn't see who went off. :lol:

Straight in to head it right at Areola. Though offside also.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Mendy nearly fucks it up.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ziyech booked.

Great block from Bif to deny Ziyech. :lol:

Schmeichel saves from Bertrand.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Armstrong whacked the bar a couple of minutes ago.

Bednarek just cleared off the line!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ward-Prowse. :lol:

Awful shot.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

McCarthy keeps Southampton in it by denying Vardy!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Perez. :haha:

Just needed to square it, offside or not.

Vardy hobbling off. Iheanacho on.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Leicester 2-0 Southampton, Barnes.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

[Letters]

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Son hits the post.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Michael Dawson calling Jose Mourinho a tactical genius for how they've been set up today. :haha:

Playing the worst team in the league, worst team in the league for probably 13 years.

Genius.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Sheffield United 0-2 Spuds, Kane.

[Letters]

[Letters]

C’mon...er...giant meteor?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Well if that happened then it would give Spuds a lot better chance of the league. Although they still wouldn't. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

I want Liverpool to win. Title winners bombing out at the group stage of the Champions League is absurd.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Going with Lindelof seems like Ole is asking for a defeat. :lol:

He and Maguire bring out the worst in each other.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Robertson. :haha:

What was that?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Great feet from Thiago, shocking pass.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Robertson. :haha:

Tierney would have whacked it in.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Firmino skews it wide.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Slabhead. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Maguire striding up from the back and belts it out of play.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fernandes hoof up field is a spectacular pass according to Tyler.

[Globalgunner]

This.may come down to who best can con the ref into giving a pen. Mane or Fernandhes..

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Shaqiri booked.

Shaw Starfish.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fernandes freekick wide. Neville thought it was in for some reason.

[Globalgunner]

I want Liverpool to win. Title winners bombing out at the group stage of the Champions League is absurd.

Didn't that used to be Wenger's Arsenal?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

"This Colossus of a Premier League game".

Shut up Tyler.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Didn't that used to be Wenger's Arsenal?

2nd group stage I think.

[Letters]

Didn't that used to be Wenger's Arsenal?

I think we used to mostly get out of the group didn’t we?
We then got clobbered by the first decent side we faced.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

0-0 HT.

[Globalgunner]

Solksjaer either went to all the same schools as Mourinho or secretly adores him. The tactics are exactly the same

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Souness: "A blind man could see that".

:lol:

Bye.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fabinho blocks off Fernandes' shot.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

AA shot, weak and easy for De Gea.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Maguire just blocks off Firmino.

This is as exciting as it has got.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Salah prods it wide.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Alisson nearly fucks it up.

Cavani should've hit it first time, then is wiped out by Fabinho. Booked.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Pogba header, easy for Alisson.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Shaqiri hauled off, Jones on.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Thiago whacks it, De Gea saves.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Thiago strikes again, outside of the foot, goes miles wide.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

So poor from Rashford.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What a save from Alisson to deny Pogba.

Well alright it was straight at him. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bundled to get it away from Rashford.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Firmino hauled off, Origi on.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Wijnaldum off, Milner on.

Fernandes hauled off, Greenwood on.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

0-0 FT. All that build up for that filth. Again.

Pep will be happy.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Man City 1-0 Palace, Stones.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

3-0, Gundogan and goal machine Stones with his second.

We remain 11th. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Mendy saves from Vardy, bit of a flap but did the job.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Pelanty to Chelsea.

Evans you clumsy old oaf.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

VAR changes it to a free kick. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Mount hits it over, way over. Stupid technique from it being a freekick only just outside the 18.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Leicester 2-0 Chelsea, Maddison!

Calamity at the back from Chelsea. :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Mendy saves from Tielemans.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Traore held on to it way too long there.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Barkley couldn't pick out the obvious pass to Grealish. :lol:

Useless.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Walker off injured, Zinchenko on.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Great defending from Sterling to deny Rodri.

And he had the audacity to protest

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Citeh 2-0 Villa, FT.

We stay top half for a few days more. :bow:

They play Newcastle next so that won't last. :lol:

[Globalgunner]

Micheal Owen crying in the studio. STFU. If that was Pool or United you'd be saying good goal.

[Globalgunner]

Lookman takes a look and slams it past Degea. 1-0

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fulham 1-1 Man Utd, Cavani.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

[Marc Overmars]

FFS.

Only City can save football now.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Firmino turns it towards goal, somehow doesn't go in.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Liverpool 0-1 Burnley, FT.

The unbeaten reign of terror at home is over.

Four league games without a goal for Liverpool now? Bonkers.

Also, somehow we're only 7 points off them. :wacko:

Spuds away next for Liverpool. Man Utd away for Liverpool in the FA Cup.

[Mac76]

Terrible run for 'pool, but hopefully the spuds game is the one where they suddenly burst into life... :pray:

[Mac76]

FFS.

Only City can save football now.

Amen

[Letters]

Completely bonkers.
Spurs are only 7 points off the top with a game in hand...having won only half their league games :wacko:
