The squad must have misunderstood Klopp’s accent, thought they were supposed to be Mentality Munsters.

Nice to see Jesse‘s players bear hugging him there. They were due a big win like this….just wish it wasn’t this week.

The 718
FUL-EVE was an EPL match that happened. That’s… About it.
Quite entertaining actually. End to end action with some resolute defending and a lack of cutting edge on the final ball but fun to watch Alm the same. Fulham were the more aggrieved by the draw but it was a fair result. Tarkowski and Coady kept Mitro under wraps. Other than a few moments Toffees were poor going forward, Gray and Gordon doing little, but far sturdier in front of goal.

Fulham are a tough out. Robinson was the best player on the pitch imo. Good for Silva- he’s a decent bloke.

Great header from Arsenal.
Everything about that goal was beautiful. The pass from Martinelli to Saka, the cross from Saka back to Martinelli and the power and placement on that header.

I said a few weeks ago that I think Martinelli may have a higher ceiling than Saka, but man is it fun watching both of these players right now.

Reiss Nelson just passed Haaland in G/90 in the Premier League this season and a whole five months younger than Haaland.

Guys guys guys. At least watch the highlights of the Union Berlin - Gladbach match. That was a top 10 sporting event for me. We are still singing about it.

Union have an air of design about them. It’s wild. I hope the WC doesn’t interrupt their insane momentum.

It’s such a well-constructed and insanely well-coached team. I’ve said this before, but watching them play is always a joy. They were the victims of 1) a lucky goal from Gladbach, 2) some quite questionable calls (from my view) and 3) having an 87th minute winning goal VARed away for offside (again, not from where I was sitting haha). And I still felt like they were going to win. I don’t know if I’ll ever see something quite like this again. It’s absolute “Wahnsinn”.

We were talking about who will go to Qatar. All we could come up with is Genki Haraguchi, maybe Jordan Pefok and Frederik Rønnow (as Schmeichel’s backup). I might be missing someone, but hoping they can use the time to practice where Bayern (i.e. Team Germany) really can’t.
