Edited for accuracy.

Lacazette falls over easier than Salah, hopefully VAR will sort him out, but I’m not holding my breath.
Then Fred went up against Lacazette and referee Jon Moss saw something. Quite what, it is hard to say. Fred looked as if he was trying to keep pace with his man, not foul him. A push? It didn't look much like one.They touched thighs, certainly. Does that constitute a foul?

Lacazette fell like one had been committed. Maybe, as old professionals say, he felt contact. Let us hope he never takes a walk down Oxford Street at Christmas, then. It could take him all week.

Ohh but it's ok for Alli - take your mind back to earlier this season - to go over when there is minimal contact or your scouser mate - I liked being on top - to justify every time his team get awarded a dodgy pen.. jog on Cyril and you better be quick as the pack are catching you :wink:

Into fourth position and now only 1 point behind Tottering and effectively 2 games clear of Chelski.
Dear admin, I’m afraid I’ve been misquoted by Not Nice. I said “gritty 2-0 win”, not “lucky 2-0” win. Please delete his post.

Police are already ripping off clubs and you want more.

More police won't stop one person in a 50k crowd from acting like an idiot.

Edgy 3-0 win this morn over Rennes. Several misses to have sealed it earlier.

Into the quarter finals of Europa now and potentially a second avenue to a Champions League spot.

Iwobi might be in trouble post-match.

Silly guy kicked an opponent in the dying minutes of the match. Gentle kick, but still...

Enjoy the couple of years you’ll probably be ahead, it’s been a VERY long time coming. Read that mustafi is the 7th most expensive defender (sic) in the world ever and that ozil is the 10th highest paid player in the world today. Its completely fucked up, what a mess Emery has inherited.

Rumours that Torreira not happy in London and wants a move back to Italy. Didn't look that interested in the end so no real surprise, sell him and move Maitland Niles and / or Chambers in there ?

Had to laugh last night at Luiz's performance. When he signed for the Goons all my Goony mates were telling me that their defence was fixed and all my Chelsea and Spurs mates said he's a bottle of shiraz liability.

I guess we know who's a judge of a player.

Could end up 6-6 if the defending by both sides continues.

:lol: Newcastle defended brilliantly but on another day we could've scored about half a dozen so we weren't that bad, but we don't play well against teams that park the bus, we move the ball too slowly to pull them out of positions IMO. What the shiraz Rose was thinking, ambling back whilst Joelinton was on his own, I have no idea, lazy defending but not as comical as Luiz pulling the shirt so blatantly and then playing innocent, that's just dumb. Please make sure he plays Sunday arvo. :wink:

How does that work?
LFC have a better attack than Spurs and yet didn't score 6.

I'm not sure there's any correlation tbh, they both had a couple of good chances, Kane should have had a penalty, but not our day. My personal opinion is that we need to be more adventurous against teams that defend deep, too much passing around the box and not enough driving into the box. That's a coaching issue to me.

it was apparent last seaon, when Kane was injured Son was superb and you won more games.Kane comes back (and scores) and you dropped off points wise.
I am not saying drop Kane of course.

I guess your coaching experience/badges etc know it's a coaching problem :wink: Maybe tell Poch how to do his job. He will appreciate it. :lol:

:lol: all these comments

Just remember Klopp couldn’t sort out his defense until they got in Alisson and Van dijk for combined 140 mil.
Pep needed 250mil + to sort out his defense & Spurs.. well Poch has still won F all and is about to loose his two best defenders
