The Rolling Football Thread (Season 2019/20)

[MrPan]

In BB's apparent absence.....

As in previous years, footy fans please sign in with

1. Which team you support.
2. Which team(s) you loathe.
3. How you are getting your kids to follow the correct team.
4. A thought on this season (Premiership/Championship/Champions’ League/FA Cup/any leagues world wide/fallout from the World Cup.)

I don't get that decision. It's all very silly.

Spurs lost to Wolves. Dh (Spurs fan) loves wolves's style of football.

Wolves are quite good to watch and they don't give up. All credit to Nuno.

Agree DuncinToffee a read a Bournemouth fan saying they hoped they were relegated because at least in the championship you can celebrate goals.

Didnt expect to beat Liverpool and keep a clean sheet! Happy surprised. Good game. Good atmosphere

Nice one Barkley.

The first goal was comedy.

Hes such a frustrating player. Moments of that then the rest of the time less so.
Who knows what the weekend will bring..its been so stop start stop start so far. Be nice to finally start start again.

Nah, continue with the start stop start stop for a bit longer.

Carlo will be pitch side after accepting the fine.

That's good. Did like Carlo.

I dont expect much from the Everton game they have been a boogy side...though we play before Leicester which as nice as we drop points when they do

Well that was bad. Except for Pickford none of the players showed up, a few even went missing. Carlo's gift to Chelsea?

Back to Everton that!

Didnt see that coming..even at 2-0 expected a comeback.. lack of corners from Everton definitely helped!

Hopefully you have that performance out the system though!

Yes I expected a improved performance the second half.
Ah well at least Kean and Gordon got playing time and Barkley didn't score. It was nice dreaming of Europe for a while.

I always liked Atletico Madrid

Exciting game last night. Liverpools attack was relentless, Athletico hardly faltered in defence. Michael Owen on BT sport annoyed me, couldn't bring himself to congratulate the team/Simeone. Liverpools lack of away goal cost them and the best team over the 2 legs won.

That's the thing. Yes they played defensively but once they did less of it in added time they scored 2 goals.
Crazy to think last season we had 3 English clubs in the semi final and this year it's one in the quarters.. if City get by..if it gets played

Arteta tested positive. Meetings being held tommrow

Just saw that, hope he feels better soon.
Leicester has 3 players self isolating, Man City has 1 and Chelsea cancelled training today as precaution.
Very worrying.

Callum Hudson Odoi has tested positive so all of our players, staff etc self isolating.

Emergency FA meeting at 9.
I'd prefer cancelling/postponing matches, playing behind closed doors just isn't what football is about.

Euros 2020 will most likely be postponed.

I agree. Also the League 1/2 clubs couldn't play with no fans, the financial implications for them would be massive. Fingers crossed the season is postponed til further notice.

Everton's entire first team and coaching staff are self isolating now.

Right decision

The Premier League, FA, EFL and WSL have collectively agreed to postpone the professional game in England

Full statement: preml.ge/hfjbr

Makes sense. Right call. Think be off longer then they think though.

This made me laugh

"Quadruple"
"Villa 5 - Liverpool 0

"Unbeaten"
Watford 3 - Liverpool 0"

"Treble"
Chelsea 2 - Liverpool 0

"Double"
Atletico 4 - Liverpool 2

"League Title"
Covid 19 - Liverpool 18

(Sorry to any Liverpool supporters )

Football season cancelled? Does that mean Liverpool get 'given' the trophy?

What does this mean for Spurs? Our play is pitiful recently. Having no games actually does us a favour! More time for all our injured players to recover?

We lost this week so are out of the champions league. Not that I recently thought we'd get 4th this year, but presumably we are thus out of it for next year? Bummer!
