Amazing stuff! What are the chances, eh?

Nice to see Dec wiping his nose with his shirt again.

Just like the old days!

Not really bothered about the result in all honesty, just hoping George is ok. Unfortunately had a clear view of it and it was absolutely horrific. Without going into detail, what happened? The BBC live text said a clash of heads but watching it live it looked more like it might have been his neck ...

Been playing like prime Matt Jarvis so far today

You pay big money for those players though because they can do sweet FA for 89 minutes, but then do something no one else can and win the game, like you said. I think its worth the risk though. He hasn't been great though, needs to get in the #10 gap more and feed him because he'll have Ings, Anton...

Think we have to look at the positives from that half:

- The Danny Ings hairline is looking fantastic these days

Juat warming up for his winner against Leverkeusen

Chuckle Brothers-style defending, but awful from Paqueta before that too.

Hope he realises that refs have cottoned on to the dives now and cuts them out ASAP.

The way Tony Gale was going on and on about Fulham for a few mins there you'd think this was 8th v. 1st rather than 8th v. 13th

Zinedingz Zidane today

Darren England (the one that was on VAR for the Spurs Liverpool game earlier this season that made the mistake of disallowing the Diaz goal) is back on VAR after a 6 month absence for our game. Can't wait for tomorrow. :crylol: "Look Dazza, first game back's a freebie. Don't worry about any mi...

I'm retired now but many years back worked and lived in Germany (nearly 4 years) and the US (2 years) and I didn't notice anything like the references to "class" that normally accompany articles about social demographgy in the UK. But your point about people of similar social standing (in...

I would imagine that we would have used to have been considered left wing by the old definition. We were in a traditional rough working class area, we were unionized, in fact our rivalry with Millwall goes back to a time when they were scabs and we were strikers. But that old definition of left and...

Second goal was a killer. Probably turned the tie from 60-40 in their favour to 80-20. Maybe 90-10. Reckon it'll have to be our best-ever European performance in the second leg to get through now. As others have said, our squad depth is simply criminal. How we go into *every* window needing more pla...

Anything I don't like or understand is woke

“I am euphoric at every game and every training session because I feel that I am in the right place, in the right league,” Genuinely, this sounds like a quote that someone would say 3 weeks before confirming that they are leaving the club. No one who claims to be euphoric watching every West Ham ga...

Weird that Keown and Rio didn't complain about the ref's leniency on this one...

You know things are bad when it’s actually refreshing to watch Champions League refereeing. You only have to watch a few games in a Euros or World Cup to realise how atrocious British referees are these days. Used to be we laughed at how soft decisions were in European football. Completely the oppo...
