Premier League 22/23 Thread

This is absolute genius:

Lampard's decision to start former Arsenal striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang backfired as he had only nine touches - four of which were kick-offs - before being replaced at the break.

That is genuinely impressive. I'm not lying when I say "I could do better" and I have never played football and have dodgy hamstrings.

I do think Fat Frank is doing a good job though, he deserves one of those 8yr contracts chelsea so love.
 
They've got enough money to be dangerous, however, they're about as effective at running a club as I would be at running a marathon
 
Fat Sam officially in.

Fingers crossed Leeds go down and that FINALLY club Chairmen will see sense and stop appointing that tosser.
 
It's going to be really interesting, lets assume Southampton are already down but all of Leeds, Everton, Forest and Leicester have horrible run ins, with at least two big teams to play each still. My money is on Leeds and Forest joining Southampton, which is a shame as I wanted Forest to last longer and one of Everton or Leicester to slide (for no other reason than to stop bloody Norwich coming back up for the 1000th time)
 
I kind of get what he's saying re: experience and knowledge, but he comes across so arrogant and ultimately sounds ridiculous.

All this said, you have 4 games to stay up, who would you prefer?
 
Does he mean no one else can neck a pint of wine whilst meeting with a prospective client/undercover journalist to help them learn how to evade the sanctions your own employers at the FA have?

@Cazza there is a reason he comes across as arrogant…….;-)
 
Ohh and that was never a penalty for Pool last night.

I think I remember seeing BT's in studio failed/retired ref on saying there didn't need to be contact for it to be a foul. The example he gave was something about a two footed lunge and the player with the ball has to take evasive action to save his legs from getting broken. He said in that example the free should still be given even if there is no contact. Fair enough, I see the logic there, and would agree. But there was minimal contact on Nunez, and that is not the kinda thing that should be given as a foul.

99% of neutrals will say that's not a penalty. The other 1% are referees who know that (adopt sad bastard nasal voice) according to rule 437B, sub section C paragraph 4, that is a penalty.
 
Something I just noticed, why are Newcastle allowed to have the away fans 50 rows away from the pitch? I can't think of any other team that does that, surely an unfair home advantage?
 
Fantastic result for Arsenal. Professional performance against an excellent team on a roll.

How the hell have we just been denied yet another penalty there?! Horrid 'tackle' by Malacia as well. No intention of playing the ball at all- clearly just trying to injure an apponenant.

I missed the pen, but as for the disallowed goal….those "fouls" on keepers are given more often than not now. It was barely a foul, and DDG was weak as piss, but the rule seems to be 'touch a keeper and it's a foul'.

I thought Arsenal were lucky again, but I probably sound like a broken record, or a Spurs fan lol.
There was some piss poor finishing by both sided though. Hitting it straight at the keepers rather than trying to put it past them.
