The Doctor

so, basically "if a decision is made that doesn't benefit us, it's a conspiracy" never mind a tin foil hat, this is a three piece suit at this point.

those times don't exist. VAR intervenes for offsides, penalty calls, goals and red cards. You've not been "screwed over with decisions", you've very demonstrably gained from them. What you're doing is remembering subjective decisions that went your way as correct and subjective decisions that went against you as obviously incorrect. Your victim complex about VAR in the face of your striker getting a lesser punishment for GBH than Eric Dier got for celebrating with fans just makes you look like an utter tool.

oh you're still being a tool about VAR? shall we go through again the points difference from VAR for your club of thugs? 20/21: https://www.planetfootball.com/quick-reads/how-the-premier-league-table-would-look-if-we-didnt-have-var-in-2020-21 +1 point for GBH FC 21/22: https://m.allfootballapp.com/news/EPL/How-the-21-22-Premier-League-table-would-look-if-we-didn’t-have-VAR/2849740 +3 points 22/23: https://www.90min.com/posts/final-2022-23-premier-league-table-without-var 0 point difference 23/24: https://www.givemesport.com/premier-league-table-without-var/ +6 points you've not ended one single season with VAR worse off than you would have been without it, and 3 seasons better off.

would have been suspended for longer if the ref had just banned him.... hope that injury he picked up the other night is a bad one and has him out for as long as he should actually be banned (5+ league games)

he was above a championship loan if we're honest. McAtee not happening was the bigger surprise, would have thought playing in a championship team playing a man city style would have been better for his development than in one of the worst teams in top flight history in Sheff Utd

buying every single player from all your competitors is one way to guarantee survival (get on it top, easier than getting Rudkin to develop a coherent recruitment strategy)

quite like the left hand one in front of the family stand myself, saved us a couple of times in the championship

assuming we get this window right - 16th. Southampton are goners, wolves will be ****ed when the FA pull their fingers out their arses and suspend their latest GBH on the pitch bloke, Ipswich don't have enough quality, and I can see us overhauling one of Palace or Everton. much as people are ready to commit self harm at the first sign of a missed chance on here, we're looking better under Ruud (the abominations with Ward in goal aside), and he's joined in a month where there's quite a bit of fixture congestion so not a huge amount of time to properly train and get ideas across.

You're entitled to your own opinion, not your own facts.

Okoli for Coady, wouldn't be opposed to Hamza for JJ either, rest of the team as is.

has to be a genuine attempt to play the ball. Double jeopardy doesn't count if you just foul someone with no attempt to get the ball, it's the idea that a mistimed tackle getting a penalty is punishment enough.

Surprised Vardy is rated as highly, he had a poor game and if Daka missed the chances he did this thread would be 4 pages long calling him an utter donkey.

359 days younger than BEK

it comes down to whether six months of this festering is good for him. He's persona non grata in the team now and it is the one big mistake Ruud has made (it was obvious that after the first mistake v wolves people would turn on him), he may prefer to just have the payoff and go rebuild a career, at 31 he's not old for a keeper.

his wrist is too strong actually, hence it being pushed back out rather than tipping round, but I think you're nitpicking to blame Stolarcyk for the goal, he's done the right thing in tipping it wide and creating an awkward angle, and he's up quickly to force the shot, but is hung out to dry by the right side (JJ and Buonanotte) not anticipating a rebound.

absolutely wiped out by de Bruyne who should have already been on a booking for a dive that Tom Daley would be proud of. How he came away from two nailed on yellow cards without even a talking to is absurd. Weak referee who let man city walk all over him

salt that ground. But seriously, I cannot think of weirder behaviour than singing about Ranieri being sacked 8 years ago when he never managed them? even the Forest fans crying bloody murder about us sacking cooper are being more normal than man city (that was at least recent and he has a connection to them). It'd be like Man Utd rocking up and us singing about David Moyes.

well boo boo you bald bastard. not like you've spent the GDP of a small nation building that squad

Surprised you believe the moon exists tbh. it's pretty clear that if you spend ages scoring goals without really creating the chances to do so, they'll dry up, because having your own goal of the month contest isn't sustainable

when his brain is turned on he's like a budget Vieira, when it's not he plays like he's in a K Hole. Past month though he's been our best player, long may it continue

mans a professional victim who blames VAR for getting decisions against wolves right, are you surprised?

green shoots, I like what he's doing and I think you can see we'll be good if/when he has a full strength squad to pick from (I don't think that first goal happens with Fatawus workrate for instance). Need some investment in January but I think we're a Huth grade signing away from staying up: CB, RB and then if possible a different winger so that Mavididi can be dropped and get him fired up again.

one day, a referee will start punishing the blatant tactical fouls they make if the ball turns over and on that day they'll be ****ed

do foul throws still exist, because **** me that was the most blatant I've ever seen

honestly i would love to see these pondscum forced to sell up and sent to the conference to never return, detestable club
