Today’s Football 25/26 Season

And my most favourite and best pundit in the world (Joe Hart) has just said Raya is the fastest goalkeeper in the world so if he didn’t save it nobody would have.

Has to be the second fastest goalkeeper on the Earth surely...suspension for Joe Hart it is then, reason tongue not far enough Liverpool's hoop. Could be a long way back for Joe..
 

Arteta was a mug today. His side totally dominated the first half, yet they watered down any directness and still continued the fannying about routine when he knew the RS had changed tactic.

Running at that defence is the only way to get them rattled....theres a mistake in all of their defenders and thats why theres been shock results against sides that do. Obviously Ive left the glaring VAR soft touch aside too in that mix
Yip, it looks like another season of the same crap from them…
