Y'know what? Great. I like it. If he's a nasty little shit on the pitch, fantastic. Sends a message to all the other squads - we're not a pushover anymore. You got awarded a penalty, did you? That's good, we'll extract a penalty from you.

I want any team we play to be frightened of us, and not just because of our skill with the ball. I want them to question whether going for a 50/50 is worth the pain, I want them to haver when pressing, I want them to be glancing over their shoulder when they have the ball.

If Coco's shithousery helps with that, ladle me up some shithousery.

Carry on, Coco.

I was responding specifically to a post about how he has the most fouls of any attacking player in the Prem this year.

I know he has had a couple moments...but I think both Dele and GLC seems more likely to make a dirty tackle or intentionally injure/hurt someone out of petulance than Lamela.

You see, the quote at the end I agree with - it's really not the technology that's the primary problem. Yes, it could definitely do with improvement, but that is doable when there's a will.

It's the cack-handed, utterly unaccountable morons in charge of the technology that is the biggest problem with VAR. I've said this so often that I'm boring myself with it!

I like to use a cooking analogy: if I'm looking to, say, fillet a piece of fish and I hack away at it and end up with fish mince at the end of it, it's not the knife's fault. The knife is a tool. It's my cack-handed attempts at using the knife that ended up with the shit result. (Ironically, I don't even like fish).

But put that same knife in the hands of an expert chef and they will use it properly, skilfully and would end up with a good outcome.

It is high time that referees were dragged into the open and made to account for their decisions. Every other professional in the game is subjected to questioning, be it serious or otherwise; what makes refs so different?


Totally agree with this. A ref can make a bad call real time because he’s unsighted, the angle wasn’t right, shadow from the stands or whatever. But there is no excuse for ref a stockley park who can watch an incident ten times in slow motion.

After those two shit, utterly incomprehensible VAR decisions that went against us at Sheffield united and Bournemouth last season after the restart, I wanted Michael Oliver in front of a camera with Jose Mourinho standing next to him to explain why he decided what he did.

There is no accountability and these morons keep doing it.

Everyone's blind to their own.

State of some of these




Not everyone. IMO, if you're OK with Lamela v Martial, you have no right to moan about Son v Lerma or Rudiger. I wish we could cut all of this crap out of the game and it would be better use of VAR than what we currently get from it.

Shit, then Danilo is better than Kane as well. We should try and get a swap deal going with Juve.

I don't understand the argument that you have to win something to be considered a good player, it makes no sense to me. And unsurprisingly it's woolwich fans who always make this argument.

It is the West Ham "Everton beat Tottenham, and we beat Everton so we must be better than Tottenham" level of logic.
