GW 9

[candylandriots]

IIRC wasn’t his problem he never could get a work permit in the UK ?

Yes, that was it. Germany is super liberal with immigration regulations (they even let me in!). I guess the irony is now that he's getting call-ups to the Super Eagles, he'd be more likely to get one. But he wouldn't get call-ups until he performed at the club level. Union got what seems an amazing deal (only 6.5 million euros for a guy that already has 11 goals this year in all competitions), but they probably had Liverpool a bit over a barrel too.

 

[SocrManiac]

No way United finish this with 11.

 

[SoxFanInCali]

This is amazing.

 

[Mighty Joe Young]

Wow

 

[SocrManiac]

HAHAHAHHAHAHAHA

 

[Mighty Joe Young]

What a pass by Henderson

 

[the1andonly3003]

United needed Varane

 

[teddykgb]

Can you sub him off already you guys are fucking this up Ole isn’t gonna survive the night

 

[67YAZ]

Other worldly pass pass by the Captain.

 

[the1andonly3003]

never seen FPL's website go down before, but this match is certainly driving traffic there

 

[Zomp]

LiVARpool

 

[SocrManiac]

Konate was awful there.

 

[67YAZ]

LOL. Rondaldo is off.

 

[SoxFanInCali]

That's better than another goal.

 

[Mighty Joe Young]

hahahaha

 

[candylandriots]

Wow, I just checked the score. Holy shit.

 

[SocrManiac]

LiVARpool

Yeah, VAR is responsible for this. Ronaldo should be off anyway.

 

[teddykgb]

Personally I think that almost goal by CR7 proves that Ole has figured this out and needs to be given more time

 

[Zomp]

Yeah, VAR is responsible for this. Ronaldo should be off anyway.

It’s a joke. Calm down.

 

[candylandriots]

Stuttgart down to 10 men after Karazor picks up two yellows in like a minute.

 

[SocrManiac]

United should be down to 9.

 

[teddykgb]

United should be down to 9.

Bruno’s tackle to start the half had shades of crimson in it too

 

[JayMags71]

When you’re right, you’re right.

 

[HowBoutDemSox]

United should be down to 9.

The way this is going, soon they’ll be down by 9.

 

[SoxFanInCali]

We don't agree on much, but every once in a while you nail it.

 

[Jimy Hendrix]

Sancho just rotting on the bench. Top level EPL clubs are like roach motels to kill promising young careers

 

[SoxFanInCali]

Orange at least there.

 

[SocrManiac]

Down to 8.

 

[Mighty Joe Young]

not looking good

 

[Jimy Hendrix]

Sancho just rotting on the bench. Top level EPL clubs are like roach motels to kill promising young careers

So is United, I guess.

 

[SoxFanInCali]

Well, so much for plan B.

 

[Mighty Joe Young]

See ya

 

[67YAZ]

I don’t even have a joke. That’s fucking shameful.
Keita has been kicked in the head and spiked in the ankle.

 

[Mighty Joe Young]

That’s a three gamer suspension as well?

 

[the1andonly3003]

I'd say Liverpool scores 10

 

[Mighty Joe Young]

And now Keita is stretched off ... thank you Pogba

 

[SocrManiac]

Anthony Taylor set the tone by allowing this shit with yellows.

 

[67YAZ]

I love Lee trying to become a stats guy but can’t get it quite right.

 

[SoxFanInCali]

Everyone else in the Liverpool side are happy to just pass it around, but you can tell Mane wants to score, too.

 

[Mighty Joe Young]

there was an interesting article in the Athletic this week about defending those long cross field free kicks. Many teams (in Serie A) are abandoning the high line in favour of pulling everyone into the box. It has its advantages (defenders seeing and reacting to the ball first .. and it’s disadvantages .. exposing acres of space wide)

 

[SoxFanInCali]

They're really should be a few minutes of stoppage time, but it wouldn't surprise me if they just blow the whistle at 90.

EDIT: They added 3, which is less than there really should have been.

 

[Mighty Joe Young]

Guessing 1 minute

 

[Pesky Pole]

i think Ole has really shown his mettle as a manager. To go down to 10 and not concede is clearly a corner turned.

 

[candylandriots]

Union channels Palace and gives up a stoppage time goal against the run of play to turn a win into a draw.

 

[Mighty Joe Young]

Well .. that was fun … We shall see how reactionary the United board is

If this site had a “like” button, I’d be mashing it for this post.

 

[SoxFanInCali]

I feel like I need a cigarette after that, and I don't even smoke.

 

[SoxFanInCali]

Also, I need a gif of that clip of Sir Rednose looking displeased and then King Kenny laughing.

 

[fletcherpost]

Ole's face was so devoid of colour in that last shot, he looked like he's just been dug up.

And now he's got to face the press.

Shameful is the right word. Pogba is an ass.
