Week 14 - Capital Kick-Off

[SocrManiac]

Waiting with baited breath for the next critical hamstring snap to take any shine off this.

 

[Section30]

I have to give props to Minamino for drawing two defenders to the near post to clear the lane for Firmino.

 

[koufax32]

Bobby getting back to being Bobby will be a nice transfer window acquisition for this team.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

These fitness equipment and workout supplement ads are something else

 

[SocrManiac]

Guaita has been appalling at controlling his area. At least three times he’s put his defenders under pressure by not getting a read and collecting easily at the edge of the box.

 

[SoxFanInCali]

Henderson with a great finish. Wow.

 

[Section30]

Nice, nice movement on that goal. 7? passes to set it up.

 

[SocrManiac]

Gorgeous play. Tore Palace to absolute shreds.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Good hold up Minamino, the switch by Keita, and a layoff from Trent to set it up.

 

[koufax32]

Rout is on. Hendo with the bomb!

 

[candylandriots]

I guess I should be glad my app just crapped out for a couple minutes.

 

[SocrManiac]

If Salah comes on I will absolutely lose my mind.

 

[koufax32]

If Salah comes on I will absolutely lose my mind.

lol, not with 19 matches in the next two weeks. Time to give the bench some run.

 

[67YAZ]

LOL. Sadio is pissed.

 

[SocrManiac]

Mané missing that is not acceptable, rout or not.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

If Salah comes on I will absolutely lose my mind.

20 min wouldn't be the worst outcome with 8 days off upcoming

 

[candylandriots]

Is this where I'm supposed to call Mane unlikable?

 

[OCST]

this is brutal.

 

[koufax32]

LOLOLOL

 

[SocrManiac]

Is this where I'm supposed to call Mane unlikable?

Yes. That was a shit display.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Most obvious of the three VAR penalty checks - this time in favor of Persepolis - and it's not given.

Something something Qatari officiating crew. Has the feeling of a stolen match

 

[67YAZ]

And then the Sadio eyeroll on that Minamino miss. Should be a fun bus ride home.

 

[koufax32]

Too cute...that should have been five.

 

[SocrManiac]

Minamino not inspiring confidence in his ability there.

 

[SoxFanInCali]

Mane and Minamino each could have had a second in the last few minutes.

 

[SocrManiac]

Palace are packed up.

 

[fletcherpost]

Haha, i had shit to do and missed the first half and was on the phone to my dad telling him i was gonna get home and catch the second half so dinnae tell me the score, and he went 'Oh...okay you'll see for yourself..." and he said it in a way that made me think Liverpool might be losing...

Just got in and got the match on...ha ha the old dog's still got some moves.

 

[SocrManiac]

What the fuck, Guaita?

 

[67YAZ]

I just can't get with the whole neck tattoo thing. Among other reasons it must hurt like a motherfucker.

I reckon that’s the message one intends to send with a neck tat.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Ulsan defender goes through the back of Abdi to get the ball, no penalty given, not even a VAR check.

This officially stinks to high heaven

Full time, 2-1 to Ulsan. One questionable VAR decision given for Ulsan (the handball was legit), one stonewall not given for Persepolis, another not even reviewed.

 

[SoxFanInCali]

5 star performance.

 

[candylandriots]

Why am I still watching this train wreck?

 

[67YAZ]

Call him Robert when he’s playing like this.

also, LOL at Aanholt. But how can I be mad at the man who blocked Dest on the Dutch National Team?

 

[Section30]

So calm on the ball

 

[SocrManiac]

Dink.

 

[koufax32]

Bobby with the Messi Special. Five

 

[fletcherpost]

Bobby's back.

 

[SoxFanInCali]

Why am I still watching this train wreck?

Honestly, I was just happy Liverpool got the 4th so they could stop talking about the 3 goal comeback in 2014.

 

[Clears Cleaver]

This team just so fucking good sometimes. If Bobby is back to being Bobby, its going to be tough for anyone to catch them again, even with the subpar D. I just wonder if this means they won't sign a CB in January..

 

[fletcherpost]

That shot of Roy made me think he has a future as a garden gnome.

 

[Section30]

Please football Gods. No injuries.

 

[candylandriots]

Honestly, I was just happy Liverpool got the 4th so they could stop talking about the 3 goal comeback in 2014.

If Palace come back for a draw in this game, I'll give everyone on this board $50.

 

[SoxFanInCali]

Just read that this is only the second time in the Premier League that a team has had players from 4 different continents score in a match. The first time was Wimbledon in 1997.

 

[Mighty Joe Young]

An Ox sighting .. welcome back

 

[SocrManiac]

Poor Bobby. Should be a MOTM performance but Henderson has been immense.

 

[fletcherpost]

Just read that this is only the second time in the Premier League that a team has had players from 4 different continents score in a match. The first time was Wimbledon in 1997.

That's Crazy.

 

[OCST]

There's the touchdown.

 

[SoxFanInCali]

Salah gets in on the act. Mane is no doubt annoyed.

 

[SocrManiac]

You get a goal! And you get a goal! And you get a goal!

 

[OCST]

Leaving Salah alone like that in front.... that's giving up
