SEE YOU! A brand spanking new modern fitba thread 2023/2024

Selliks wing play is currently dire. Palma decent but profiles as a ten, constantly cutting inside, slowing things down, no cutbacks for little kyogo. The other wing has been an injury graveyard but even Maeda & Abada have major limitations against lowblocks. One strength we do have is we have 4 guys in the front line who are really, really good in the press. I reckon we should just be funelling it thru the middle and backing ourselves to win second balls.

 

What the hell is that? They do songs about eating vegetables?

 

Schwarma King is a must-visit next time I'm up..now I've dropped 70lbs I'll be able to indulge. Now that I've a job too I'll buy you one

Then we can go up to that fucking pub up the road with their craft beer and even craftier prices

 

So you're on the diuretic diet?

 

70lbs over 18 months

 

You know they have breakfast cereal restaurants here now? £6 for a bowl of Lucky Charms with Banana milk etc. ....

 

Haha.... its a vegan pub which happens to also be a gig venue and record shop. Must've sounded like some business pitch back in the day before it opened but there's a similar establishment right across the street, too! Both been pretty sizable presences in the local music scene & your chances of bumping into somebody famous (in local terms at least) are usually high. Even weirder, Glasgow was vegan capital of europe since the 90s well before it was cliched, there's 5 or 6 such vegan pubs/music venues in town. Ive honestly no idea why

 

Can't they build stadia that don't trap great big pockets of blinding sunlight in one particular corner?

 

United coming back here I can feel it....

 

2-1!

 

Bewm! 2-2

 

Gimme ma munneh!!

 

Fuck off Villa..
...the audacity to even challenge Liverpool's eminence!!

 

United have turned into that team I've always hated, they won't win anything themselves but they'll happily fuck things up for another club with ambition, then get destroyed by Brentford the week after. Basically they're Stoke now.

 

Villa never showed up for that second half mate. Not for a minute.

 

Liverpool wandering around like a drunk guy in a penthouse apartment....on top, with no idea how they got there

 

Truth be told ...... Only Man City in the current round of fixtures looked like Champions. They never, not for a moment, stopped believing they were going to beat Everton last night. They just tapped away convinced that they'd get something and when they did, they went and got more.

Oh and Pickford's gonna cost England dearly at the Euros.

 

7 goals Kyogo has scored against them in 2023 but this was the best by miles

 

Huns having a meltdown about the handball- it was ruled out for OFFSIDE. Doesnt matter if it touched his hand. We also had a stonewall penalty ruled out for offside...which was onside. Huns just in disbelief that its possible for them to go thru 90m and not get a pen

 

Hut, how flappy was your arsehole for that final 10 minutes ?? No need for it to have been that nervy.....

 

I can't whine. End of the year. Top of the table. As good as it gets, whatever happens next.

 

Arteta is a good manager but is just not on the level where he can guide a team to win a title.

 

It's refreshing to see five teams right now involved in a title race. Three points separating 1st and 5th. But it's very likely that Villa, Spurs and Arsenal fade away, leaving Liverpool to challenge Citeh to win the title. Citeh probably go on a run and win it, but the league really needs this Citeh dominance to stop and other teams to win the title between them. Unlikely to happen, unfortunately.

 

Very unlikely,alas.

 

Not too bad - i had one moment where they were coming down the left and that nuicance Tavenier had ghosted into the back post....me in row z watching him eating up the space like inevitability itself. But then their man i think yalmez or dowell just baloons a shot over the bar without having even seen him and i realised there wasnt much to worry about. Fading late is a pattern with celtic tho

 

It feels like the whole league is mad all the way down to 15th or 16th. A team like crystal Palace would qualify for europe in any of the other 4 big leagues

 

Palace fighting relegation but able to be moments away from getting results Vs Chelsea and Liverpool and actually getting results at The Etihad and beating Man United.....

 

Not good enough. You need to take your chances. Penalties especially. I don't care what Ian Wright says about Nūnez getting into the "right places"...gotta fucking score them..... we're blowing this, Ray Leonard style.

 

Endo is fucking SPL level, all due respect.
