Today’s Football 2021/22 Season

[DanEFC92]

Today has been a depressing reminder of how bad the modern game is. Corrupt.

 

[CharliePotato]

Still no goal threat, rely too much of the wing backs. Surprised Rom isn't playing regularly.

Not much creativity to a non existent striker. Havertz never gets involved in a game (German Dele Alli) and Werner is the German Shane Long.

He’s not that good that’s why.

Was a pen

if that was a pen then so was the Villa one that was turned down

 

[Bohemian Toffee]

Rudiger is a big enough bell that he would fit seamlessly into the RS

 

[Lee Smith]

Ref couldn’t blow that whistle quick enough could he ?. Villa about to launch it into the box one last time, bang on 94 minutes, to the second, the whistle goes. Standard.

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Southampton, Leeds and Norwich all losing would be good for us

 

[blueconverse]

Powers that be really want to keep this 3 horse race going

At least the DJ beater now knows what it’s like being ripped off at the tinmine

 

[Toast]

Chelsea got my acca up.

Not even arsed if it was bent.

It’s been this way since the early 2000s and the so called ‘big 4’. The PL want a ‘title race’ but only want it against a few select teams. They don’t care if the rest of the league is complete cannon fodder.

The days of the likes of Leeds Blackburn Everton Villa etc. ever winning the top flight again are over. Even if they got a team together good enough to do it they can’t compete against this refereeing on a weekly basis and unless they dope they probably can’t even compete in general.

Guardiola and Klopp have destroyed English football beyond reason in recent seasons. The rest of the league may as well not even bother. It’s a shock if these teams even concede a goal let alone drop a point now.

The guy who just won them a champions league and was leading the prem until last week. I think he’s built up some goodwill

They've been unconvincing the last 4 games, really struggled today. Lucky penalty decisions aside they're not creating much, relaying on set pieces.

You know what they're fans are like. A draw there would've put them 4 points behind City. Carried on...I think they'd be grumbles

 

[Tommy Chong]

Mutants singing YNWA with close ups to show how that their 'der best fans in der werld lad'. Check
Commentators spunking themselves over Stevie Me, but not so much so that would result in actually talking about the Villa team. Check
Dramatic dive resulting in a penalty. Check
Scores penalty in front of the kop. Check

I missed the post match. I assumed Stevie Me did some sort of dramatic lap of honour.

What else did I miss?

 

[MrGrumpy]

It’s a shame the game so corrupt nowadays

 

[Saint Domingo]

Top three sides all getting penalties ( all controversial as well) and Villa getting their appeals turned down makes this look like we’re in Italy

The Italian police actually have the stones to investigate Italian football though. Too much money in the English game.
