Corky Posted 16 May 2021 Share Posted 16 May 2021 Everton have improved but I bet their fans are seriously underwhelmed. They finally get a top manager in and the home record is possibly the worst in a generation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nalis Posted 16 May 2021 Share Posted 16 May 2021 Aside from being Liverpool, it is brilliant when a goalie scores. Not only that but it was a fantastic header, fair play Allison and a nice interview afterwards when speaking of his late father. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corky Posted 16 May 2021 Share Posted 16 May 2021 On the commentary bias situation- the solution is simple. You have a neutral or you have someone from each side. There are two teams playing in the game and should have an equal footing. I could imagine Lineker's fanboy schtick yesterday was grating for Chelsea fans and neutrals- had it been the other way round we'd be complaining- but he's not doing it on air for 90 minutes, we don't hear it on live matches every week and he covers virtually all BBC games regardless of the clubs involved. Are Sky terrified that viewers will turn off if Man United and Liverpool aren't heavily represented? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deeg67 Posted 17 May 2021 Share Posted 17 May 2021 I think Palace is probably our best shot to get anything off Liverpool but after today, they have to be heavy favorites to make it. The more likely question is whether we or Chelsea is the 4th club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea need to win in Tuesday, we need to not lose really. Otherwise we are going into the last day needing goals. Either way, it's going to be exciting and excruciating. Just praying for another 1-0 win on Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pliskin Posted 17 May 2021 Share Posted 17 May 2021 We just need to avoid defeat on Tuesday. We can take Spurs, we need to make it possible that the bin dippers can’t overtake us on Wednesday. Do that and we will be fine. Let Chelsea and then scrap it out for that last place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingsX Posted 17 May 2021 Share Posted 17 May 2021 18 hours ago, filbertway said: As someone who spent their whole childhood playing as a goalkeeper and someone with eyes, I know that he wouldn't have had anywhere near the time required to make that decision and get down. Unfortunately the officials never seem to have played a game of footie in their lives so make these mental decisions. From an experienced viewpoint, you feel sure no unfair advantage was gained. Which is merely the reason the rule exists! While I’m looking at it as “what is this referee -- Star Of The Show Mike Dean -- going to give”. Your take on applying the rule is more valid honestly. But I wouldn’t have my club’s coaches teach it. The ref is by far the most important man on the pitch. You have to play to the way the game is officiated. And offside is commonly given on these. So don’t stand one pace in front of the keeper’s face miles offside. You can’t possibly know whether a save is on or not, and you can’t try to play the ball. So why the **** are you there?

Corky Posted 17 May 2021 Share Posted 17 May 2021 It looks like a Man United move for me- he gets to play for the biggest club and the Glazers will see it as a way of appeasing fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martyn Posted 17 May 2021 Share Posted 17 May 2021 (edited) Not convinced Kane will go as the asking price will be huge. If he does, I'd make Man City slight favourites over Man Utd, but depends whether one of those is invested in trying to sign Haaland.

The Bear Posted 17 May 2021 Share Posted 17 May 2021 Levy will want at least £100m for him. Not many clubs will be able to afford that at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
