        Just read on The Athletic that Qatar wants stake in an EPL club so there's that.

          I am 100% joking around. But I guess it's not like Everton have a legacy to protect in 2023, so whatever happens idc.

            They (the state) have their club—Qatar is next.

              So let me get this straight…

              There are no intentions for either side, Conte or Levy, to sign a new deal when his current one is up in summer yet you’re still chasing his targets like Pedro Porro after just inking Danjuma who’s gong to sit behind Son because he’s undroppable no matter how trash he’s been playing.

              And I’m also supposed to believe that Harry Kane wants to sign an extension when Bayern and United are chasing him?

              And the cherry on top….their DOF is probably going to be facing time over his shady dealings at Juve AND Kulu/Bentacur might get caught up in the same drama if they’re found guilty of taking higher wages behind the scenes.

              Please Spurs…may I have some more

                I'm still disappointed nobody clipped that Gabriel dive though, maybe its cause all the focus was on DDG and Bruno.

                I legit can't find it online anywhere and it was the funniest dive attempt I've seen in a while. He like threw himself into a summersault and threw his hands in the air, then nobody on either team reacted in any way and I think United were on a counter after that.

                  you'll have to be more specific on which Gabriel, and which Dive

                  the DDG one is legit one of the funniest dives i think i've ever seen, though the fact that he allowed a goal after it really is the icing on the cake. You don't get moments like that to laugh at DDG for ages without time-wasting.

                  Gabriel the defender is generally hilarious to watch when you're winning, and nerve-wracking experience when you're not.

                    I love that we again have players that opposing supporters just dislike, hate to watch, etc. because it's much more enjoyable than when the only emotional reaction our squad brought on was indifference.

                      I believe it. Hasn't won a damn thing yet, why try now when he can instead chase club records, and there's no way in hell he's leaving the country, as his claim to fame when he retires will be that he broke Shearer's record.

                      Slack-jawed Harry isn't leaving England, and I also wouldn't be surprised to see him leave where he'll be adored no matter how little he wins.

                        Yeah it was Gabriel the defender, think it was in the first half but i can't remember now.

                        Have to say though, as someone who really wanted to like Saka despite being an arsenal player, he's making it really hard. Idk what even happened, but i swear he was never this big of a diver before.

                          Hahahaha. Truth that the English media bull**** works. Next you’re going to wax poetically about how Arteta’s touchline antics must be quelled.

                          I would think you of all people would understand how a player naturally starts to embellish after getting the **** kicked out of them via rotational fouling while referees ignore it.

                          The kid has been booked more times than those fouling him have been booked.

                            He’s not embellishing that much though lol, just diving. You’re right that I would understand but Hazard was absolutely not a diver.

                            Anyway, it’s not a big deal. I know he gets targeted but he straight up dives a lot, it’s ok to admit that, Chelsea has had plenty of divers.

                              That’s my point—name a supremely talented player across the front three in the league who will not dive—it’s an accepted part of the game by officials at this point.

                              Pointing out select players just seems so…British media? Which means selective, inexplicable outage. Some days I yell at clouds, so I kind of get it, a little bit.

                              But hey, at least diving doesn’t hurt anyone like intentionally undercutting a jumping opponent can.

                              For the record, I do differentiate between a classic dive and going down while faking a head injury. I wish neither happened, but one is far easier to stomach.

                                For the US fans, Matt Turner in goal for Arsenal, has a big test with Rob Holding in front of him, and Erling Haaland about to run at him.
