    Ange in or out?

    Here's the table from 19 December: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=2024–25_Premier_League&oldid=1263972818#League_table Second in goals for (behind Chelsea), equal third in goals conceded (behind Liverpool and Arsenal), third in GD, one worse than Liverpool and Chelsea, but 13 and...

    Ange in or out?

    Yes, as I mentioned, before the Liverpool 6-3 loss we were top four for goals scored, goals conceded and goal difference. Iirc, we were top two or three in a couple of them. But we were already something like ten points adrift, even when our defence was one of the best. It could be bad luck or...

    Ange in or out?

    I'm torn about giving another season, based on the goals record. Is there something freaky about this season or is it related to Ange's strategy. We are currently second for goals scored, 6th on GD, and mid-table on goals conceded despite all the injuries. Before the Liverpool game we were top...

    Great goals thread

    Simplicity from the Swedish third tier.

    Football and money

    I suppose a mitigating factor is they will only pay the wages for the duration of the loan. As wages are paid for the whole year, this is effectively a discount on wages while active.

    Cheatski are still scum

    Iirc, the CPO voted in favour of the Abramovich proposal, but without the necessary super-majority. I'd expect them to support it. Presumably they get a cut of any property build on the old Stamford Bridge.

    The Official 2024/25 Premier League Thread

    The red is supposedly for serious foul play, which is questionable. However, there is a case that a cynical foul with no attempt to play the ball should be a red card offence. It's essentially just kicking the opponent.

    Circus ManUnitus - Nobody's At The Wheel

    The Glazers are still the majority owners. They can't believe their luck in attracting someone willing to pay big money to draw attention away from them. They'd have even worse coverage sacking low paid employees, cutting free staff lunches, reducing Christmas bonuses, and cancelling donations...

    Circus ManUnitus - Nobody's At The Wheel

    All the mocking of clubs sacking their managers. United didn't work that way because they were a different class. It's true they gave Ferguson time, but that was a different era and followed years of trying to replace Busby. United have built their success on two incredible managers who were...

    Circus ManUnitus - Nobody's At The Wheel

    A bonus is a gesture so having one makes a statement, even if it is only a token one. The £100 might have been set years ago. However, cutting it and replacing it with a voucher such an obvious PR mistake. Radcliffe looks like he wants to surpass Mike Ashley in the successful businessmen who...

    Rodrigo Bentancur

    I understand why he gets that suspension, but it's odd that something said on international duty punishes his club team-mates, including the victim of the slur.
