I hope Bayer Leverkusen receive a standing ovation from our faithful if we are soundly beaten, ala Dynamo Tbilisi in 1981. I'm not writing us off though. Er have to say i am not going that far, for now at least, lol. One thing that really riled me on sunday was the Fulham player injured off the pit...

lets just wait and see re bowen. If he is fit then cresswell will play on the left and kudus in front of him.

well if this is it for Europe, as fans we may as well go out giving it everything we've got.

A much fairer result would have been 1-0. On another day the first goal doesn’t go in. I think we’re still in it and will be a different better proposition at home.

Not really interested in the var debates, its done wth, we won. I didn’t watch the match but looks and sounds like moyes should be given some credit for his substitutions. Taking both the czechs off sounds unusual but it improved us, likewise an unusual move to bring cresswell on for bowen. I take i...

I’m still livid about this match. The ref giving so much to newcastle, gordon getting penalties by sticking his leg in the way like jamie vardy, our players for being second best and not being ruthless, calvin phillips for not taking the ball out of the area, moyes for going defensive when it was ob...

Maybe we have to just face the fact that it hasn't really worked out for him with us? I'd like it to be different but he has suffered from not excelling in any position. Maybe another club has a better or different idea of how to use him and that may work, but barring the fact i'd like for us to get...

My apologies if already posted If we reach the final vs Liverpool do we qualify for champions league regardless of result? only the winner i believe. although that is quite interesting in itself because lets say liverpool won, and with the co-efficient in englands favour so fifth place also qualifi...

quite possibly the most philosophical bunch of fans there is.
this made me laugh

yeah it seems to say how it will effect every one else but doesn't say if it helps us in the future.

i did used to go and watch reading when i lived down there but that was at Elm Park.
surprisingly, despite that, i can live without a signed photo, even if Shaka had signed it lol

i'm left wondering was it really that bad how it was back in say the 80's before they started messing about with the rules? Ok so use video to watch an incident back, then the ref decides if it was deliberate. Its quite easy really and the rules were ok as they were then, except now refs can look at...

re can't be a penalty if it hits another part of the body first. That rules out Zouma's last weekend then which was given despite it hitting his stomach first. This is getting like a game of spotting a handball decision which was correct. I just don't get why it can't just be a decision from the re...

Freiburg were pretty ****. Had we taken our chances , at least 3-0. We should win at the ls but didn’t deserve the pen at the end.
Why didn’t we put in the effort at the end earlier in the match?

We missed at least 4 decent chances, nobody can say we went fir the draw. But the manager? For god sake if players arent doing it then sub them. And sub them with plenty of time to go, like 20 minutes.

Why wont our ****ing manager make subs earlier?
Antonio should have been on with 20 mins to go

Sporting v atalanta is on bt now. Scamacca playing for atalanta, currently 1-0

I think I'd start Antonio in this one, not sure who for, but feels like a good chance to give him 70mins. Possibly Phillips too. That said, obviously in the knockout stages we need to be going pretty strong and we don't want any unrepairable damage being done to the overall scoreline in the first l...

Enjoyable day at Goodison Saturday. Didnt think we played amazing but a great 3 points. Mavropanos puts the fear of god in me everytime hes on the ball :crylol: Yes you could also question his marking on their goal and when he lost possession on another of their chances. He just needs to concentrat...
