welp... that was a meltdown

1/3/2017 3:08:06 PM

Bye Alexis, bye Ozil

Get the fuck out Arsene

[Edited on January 3, 2017 at 4:35 PM. Reason : LOL at Giroud's celebration for the equalizer]

1/3/2017 4:07:07 PM

Well - that was the epitome of a tale of two halves...

I'll take it!

1/3/2017 4:40:40 PM

I will too.

Can move to 3rd with a win tomm now...

1/3/2017 4:42:17 PM

Didn't see it but one point isn't good enough there.

1/3/2017 4:46:23 PM

Bournemouth got scared and everybody shrunk into the 18.

It was the coaching equivalent of going to a prevent with a 1 score lead in football.

1/3/2017 4:47:51 PM

^^ generally absolutely correct - Arsenal are [supposedly] too quality. That said going down 3-0 and still taking a point is important. A loss - and a bad one at that the way the first half (and most of the second even) would've been way more disastrous.

1/4/2017 6:07:41 PM

So whens St. Totteringham's Day this year?

1/4/2017 8:21:32 PM

^ Hah - after last seasons Newcastle debacle it could be anytime. Hahahahah god that really was funny.

1/5/2017 7:48:59 AM

LOL

1/5/2017 8:17:40 AM

Well that was fun. You're welcome City, Liverpool, and Arsenal.

Alli proving himself to be a generational talent. Can't wait to see the heights he achieves as he continues to grow physically and mentally.

We've got City away in a couple weeks, then Liverpool away near Valentine's, but every other match of any significance will played at The Lane from now till May. Long way to go yet.

1/5/2017 10:31:05 AM

Obviously before yesterday's result but sums up the current state of affairs pretty well.

1/5/2017 10:57:38 AM

I don't get it

1/5/2017 1:16:04 PM

I think they are saying Mourinho is a sociopath with potentially psychopathic tendencies.

1/5/2017 1:27:47 PM

And that Wenger likes to cut himself like a teenage girl?

1/5/2017 1:39:47 PM

While you 4 focus on each other and Wenger kills himself Mourinho is gonna do him and cut the whole damn thing down. Just you watch. /sarcasm

1/5/2017 1:44:20 PM

Like a Phoenix rising from the ashes I have had a Welbeck sighting.

1/7/2017 2:26:55 PM

so this is kinda random but i was looking for a goal video and must have the details wrong

i thought it was drogba

thought it was their champions league winning season

thought it was only goal vs barcelona

the goal where drogba was beyond last defender but at halfway line, john terry clears it and drogba had a breakaway goal. the opposing had like 99% possession with chelsea dropping 9 behind the ball and this goal was the only goal.

I know have some (all??) of these details wrong. can someone help me figure out the scenario/game where the goal i described happened? i'm obviously assuming its a semi-famous goal, if im wrong about that then nobody will be able to help me

1/9/2017 11:38:20 PM

i dont think thats it. i think a critical component is being "offsides" but not b/c he was on the defensive side of the half line. as a relative soccer noob that was the point i really understood that rule

thanks for the attempt tho

1/9/2017 11:53:30 PM

Are you talking about Torres vs Barcelona?

All the clap emojis! I won't talk to trash for a few weeks in return!

I would really love it if someone could alert the referees in TASL to these exceptions: https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Offside_rule

Ticking time bomb finally exploded.

That Ramires/Costa Chinese link on FUT next year gonna be awesome though..

1/13/2017 3:21:04 PM

Well Harry Kane had a week.

Baby first, then a hat trick at the weekend. Walked off with the game ball.

God damn Pep looked like he was about to cry right there

1/15/2017 9:37:39 AM

City has wasted more money on poverty defenders than most teams have spent in their entire existence.

[Edited on January 15, 2017 at 9:44 AM. Reason : Lescott, Mangala, Otamendi, Stones (yes, until he grows he is not top four quality). Many more too]

[Edited on January 15, 2017 at 9:45 AM. Reason : And why the fuck is zabaleta in the midfield? Is Pep senile?]

1/15/2017 9:43:13 AM

I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy seeing him get slaughterhoused. He's definitely not God's gift to tactics.

1/15/2017 10:16:10 AM

Dream come true for that kid..

[Edited on January 15, 2017 at 10:24 AM. Reason : Lol Stones is so shit]

1/15/2017 10:23:59 AM

Jesus, Liverpool's squad is weak today (I know injuries and Afcon - not a troll or slight). No reason United should drop points at home.

[Edited on January 15, 2017 at 11:27 AM. Reason : Pogba with a couple of minutes there... sheesh]

1/15/2017 11:18:08 AM

Give Klopp 11 and we will compete.

1/15/2017 11:58:01 AM

Oliver looks guilty for giving that pen. Doesn't look like LFC will get the benefit on any 50/50 call the rest of the game.

Pogba looks like shit. LFC look pretty solid other than a few errant passes. Unfortunately I see Mhkitaryan unlocking the defense in the second half.

1/15/2017 12:00:15 PM

Is there anywhere on the internet where you can see the actual play stoppage time in a game vs the stoppage time given?

[Edited on January 15, 2017 at 12:32 PM. Reason : I'm just curious to see if wasting time is actually an effective tactic]

1/15/2017 12:31:41 PM

Woah, quite the sequence for the equalizer.

1/15/2017 12:40:57 PM

Lol Herrera is such a dick head

1/15/2017 12:52:17 PM

Shoulda been sent off for punching Herrera in the face

1/15/2017 12:53:36 PM

On a side note, Rojo sucks holy shit he does

1/15/2017 12:54:57 PM

Great day for Spurs, Arsenal and Chelsea

[Edited on January 15, 2017 at 1:31 PM. Reason : PL on NBC is best produced Sport around. Love these post matches]

1/15/2017 1:13:51 PM

which is was mane instead of wijnaldum with those 2nd half chances...

Klopp all comps vs Arsenal, Chelsea, Everton, City, United & Spurs:
P20 W10 D9 L1 F35 A17
7 Clean Sheets

impressive. need to be consistent against the shit teams and Liverpool are serious title contenders

1/15/2017 3:32:36 PM

^ lmao. ??????. I said this exactly under LVG almost word for word and guess who was the first one to talk shit? Aimorris. Oh how the tables have turned.

1/15/2017 9:53:28 PM

Entirely different situations/expectations, no?

1/15/2017 10:00:06 PM

Not really. LVG had the best (or at least close to it) record against the top 6. If his team's could breakdown smaller opposition we would have been title challengers too. When you can't consistently beat smaller opposition there is a flaw in your system or as a manager motivating your players.

Seeing klopp moaning about the match yesterday was pathetic when the stats tell a completely different story. Only one team tried to win yesterday but of course klopp won't get criticized for his high press defensive football.

1/16/2017 7:26:07 AM

lol

1/16/2017 11:21:52 AM

I would say that it's hilarious seeing a fan of a Jose Mourinho coached club complain about negative (it wasn't by the way) football with a lead but we know Jose is a delicate snowflake so I don't want to upset him.
