A thought on this season (Premiership/Championship/All other UK Leagues/Champions’ League/FA Cup/Any leagues world wide)

Wow! Wasn't expecting that today!

No, it's been a great footballing weekend for us. Let's hope it lasts.

We have to play Liverpool soon so hopefully they will forget now to score by then.

Some amazing performances and results across this weekend’s matches. Arsenal’s comeback looked - dare I say it - like the stuff of champions. I’m obviously overjoyed at today’s result at Anfield, but even more because of the way Liverpool played than the actual score line. Bruno Fernandes, though - his attitude is utterly appalling. He is like this every time things don’t go his team’s way - just embarrassing behaviour from a captain. Surely Ten Hag has to take him to task for it (and he can - as he showed with Ronaldo).

Ten Hag forced the squad to sit in SILENCE and listen to Liverpool players celebrate their 7-0 win at Anfield. He told them to use it as motivation to ensure they never capitulate so meekly again.

Ouch!

Oh dear.

Morning all ! Are there any Leeds fans here, or anyone who has done Leeds away recently ?
We're driving up from the South Coast on Saturday and trying to figure out the best place to park. The last time we went (few years ago now) we parked in a car park right outside the ground...was an absolute nightmare to get out of. Is it worth heading to the town centre and using the shuttle bus ? I understand there are some park and rides... are they specifically for football or do they drop in the town ? Trying to make the day as stress free as possible.
Any tips gratefully received !

Spurs were truely awful against Milan last night.

Ooh, the Beeb have really fucked up this time!

This is going to be interesting

It gets worse for the bbc Football Focus follows MOTD example.

No presenters, no commentators, no players and manager interviews

What an own goal.

Wonder what the chants will be

I hope they still show the matches even without the commentators. The fans should not suffer.

Sounds like 5Live is f*ed as well.

I think they are having the World Feed commentary. Whatever that is. Just no bbc presenters or commentators.

Great. I hope they do.

So pleased for Bournemouth after the heartbreak we inflicted on them last week.

Klops face at the end was a picture.

Just thinking about all the handball shouts last week which weren't given to us and Liverpool get one where the guy was jumping and so couldn't do anything about it.

🚨 BBC has no rights to PL world feed commentary. With BBC commentators not working in support of Gary Lineker, using world feed commentators for #MOTD is not within their gift. Unclear if solution can be found to air highlights + commentary

Just about sums up Liverpool’s season: annihilate Man U 7-0 and then lose to the club at the bottom of the table. Just so inconsistent.

Oh ok. Well, they can show it with just the sound of the fans hopefully. That is what we get at football matches anyway.

Yes, but we've all been there. I think that Everton were bottom (or at least definitely in the relegation zone) when Arsenal lost to them after beating Man U in the previous PL game.

And now, apparently, MoTD is going to be just 20 minutes long. Presumably followed by Mrs Brown's Boys...

I usually boycot MotD because of the team's performance but tonight I will boycot in support of Gary

🎶I feel like singing the blues when Everton win and....... 🎶

@DuncinToffee

Great result.

I always prefer MOTD when GL isn't on, so I will be watching.

So only 3 mins per game? I would have thought they would have had more time for each game without GL talking rubbish.

Nah, as usual it will be 15 minutes of Harry Kane, with the other games shoehorned in at the end...
