If that's the worst you can say about me, I'll take it.

Anyone know what was up with dyche at the end against liverpool last night. I know klopp can be a bit of a **** but dyche is just as bad. 

Klopp thought the physicality was over the top and Dyche disagreed.

 

I know its fashionable on here to slate Dyche but I think he has a point to be honest, most challenges were tough but fair. Unfortunate for Gomez to get that injury.

[fazzyfox]

Re the Gomez injury, I know he's been playing CB but is still able to cover RB, do you think that will affect the availability of Clyne in January?

 

# the fazzyfox Clyne, Shelvey & Moses masterplan derailed.

well this doesn't look too good for Fulham

 

[Deeg67]

Wow, is that Hercule Poirot?

My honest first thoughts seeing that photo:

 

1) Why is Sam Alladyce in fancy dress as the Go Compare man?

2) Oh, why is the Go Compare man linked with Fulham?

3) Oh, it's the Fulham owner!

 

To be fair I've not long woken up.

Is that former policeman also looking into the corruption at ManCity and most of the other clubs in the Prem and a few in the championship.

 

Bloody foreigners coming over here, buying up our teams and then getting them into the prem.

What a carry on....We'll be seen going back to the old days, of owners being from Haulage companies or Beer breweries next!!!

How did you even pass the fit and proper owner check with that moustache?

By having billions of pounds and not giving a **** about football. Like the vast majority of owners. 

 

Not ours. Ours are ****ing brilliant.

He looks like a whimsical bad guy from an unreleased Wes Anderson film. Fair play to him really. I hate young guys with cvnto moustaches but once you get to a certain you can get away with it. I'm going full hipster at 65. X 

[Wymsey]

If Cardiff and Huddersfield both survive against the odds, considering their apparent low budgets against others in the league, would that make this league the most competitive in the world or actually even weaker than many have predicted?

[StanSP]

King swings an arm out and catches Van Dijk on the neck, looked to be intentional. Referee gives a free-kick but no booking?

[Jonezy]

So another major decision in favour of the Big 6. Salah offside for the goal. Looking forward to VAR.

[egg_fried_rice]

Should be a pen for Bournemouth there. Just because you're in goal it doesn't mean you can lead with your knee when you jump like that when heading the ball. Any other player anywhere else on the pitch and that's a foul.

agreed.

 

By Klopp's reasoning as well, that's 'dangerous' play.

[Super_horns]

Twice in 2 matches against the big boys Bournemouth have been hard done by with an offside decision.

 

Yet they got one going for them in the week..

 

[Suzie the Fox]

Can't wait for VAR, its not perfect but it will stop this kind of crap

He gets away with a lot of hypocrisy due to his larger than life personality.

 

Neither team at their best this half.

Is it actually that weak, or is that just the favourite line of those that don't like Puel to discredit our position. When exactly have the league been filled with great teams outside the top 6 or 7?

Well bored of people saying "outside of the top 5 teams the league is full of dross", meaning we should stroll into top 7

 

Every league in the world has its hierarchy of teams. Its a stupid naive argument

[the fox]

Oh I can't wait for Jose to drop a 1-0 with 35% possession and 2 shots on target masterclass vs Klopp.
