Couldn't have complained about any result

Was ludicrously end to end, unbelievably frustrating that we conspire to only score one goal in pretty much every game. Amount of the ball and players we had in space around their box, not managing to score 3 is a failure, let alone 2.


Sakho left the stadium on crutches, if he's out for months rather than weeks we're absolutely fucked.

Pretty much
 
Man Utd the big winners of the weekend

Liverpool the big losers, as per. Pretty much every result was bad for us in some way aside from Chelsea, who will probably be 3 points behind us after the next round
 
Payet out for three months, just what we needed. Not sure how McCarthy got away with that double footed challenge in the first place, especially as Everton had been targeting Payet right from the start.

*edit, scum.

Horrible. :( McCarthy didn't even get a card for that is that right? Shameful from the referee.

He got a yellow, which is worse in some ways as now the FA will hide behind the ref's decision so they won't have to take any further action.

One of the most obvious red cards you'll ever see.

Yup, what makes it more galling is that last season McCarthy injured one of our players (Amalfitano) with a similar tackle and also got away with it on that occasion as well. Can't abide players like that, they're worse than divers and con artists.

Also, I thought better of Martinez before this match, but it was quite clear that he'd set his team up to "frustrate" us (read as; kick us about the park) and the players sticking the boots in were rotating to avoid getting carded.
 
Our U19 (top) talent Felix Passlack sneaked into the stadium as ball boy to watch the derby, Tuchel noticed :lol

What a guy.

In other news, here's the ugly Germany shirt for the Euro:

That is absolutely awful. Unreal that he didn't get a red for that.
 
Marton Fulop has passed away after battling with cancer.

32 years old. Horrible.

He wasn't here long but I think all the Ipswich Town supporters thought very highly of him.

Very popular everywhere he went by all accounts. Terrible loss.

England U-21s playing today - 4 Chelsea lads in the 11, 1 on the bench as well.

:(
 
Euro 2016 qualification playoffs started today for those interested. Hungary and Norway are playing and the Hungarians are currently winning 1-0.
 
Oh my, didn't even notice hahaha

He's not fat anymore but that is certainly one hell of a photoshop :lol

Unless he's doing the Tuchel diet and you're losing a lot of weight suddenly at some point instead of evenly over time.
 
The 2010 away is overrated. Adidas needs to do another black one, though. Out of the recent shirts:

Home 2010 > Away 2012 > Home 2006 (for WC at home reasons)
