Straight up basura the entire match. I was in Chicago at the LFC bar again, and there were a few Chelsea fans sprinkled in. Someone was yelling "what!?" almost constantly. The explosion of anger at that last foul called on Darwin was something else lol

Bad day at the office for Harry Clarke of Ipswich. Concedes a penalty, scores an own goal and sent off as well.Comment

Probably deserved result for that Arsenal/Liverpool game based on how the game went overall.
Getting a bit triggered by all the Arsenal fans online going “Chelsea fans we know how you feel now” lmao.
No you absolutely do not, this wasn’t even a bad game from Taylor lmao.Comment

It was a normal game, which is bad, but his normal is always bad—so it was bad, but normal for him.
Considering the ever depleting squad, I’ll take it. If there’s something that squad knows it's that the league isn’t won this early, but it can be lost this early.
Many games to go, many games for English officials to ruin (for all clubs).Last edited by Krebstar; 10-28-2024, 07:59 AM.Comment

Re: 2024-2025 English Football Thread
As for the match yesterday, it was a fun watch. I thought Arsenal should have won and am happy to come back from down twice to get a point on the road.
But it was my birthday, so the club personally assured me that they wouldn't lose. Sorry KrebComment

His historic bad he saves for Chelsea because we hold a special place in his heart.Comment

Re: 2024-2025 English Football Thread
Another inexcusably **** performance* worthy of a team now clinging onto cup chances.
(The performances caused the majority of the funk, but having players punished [delaying the restart x2, Saliba's red] while in several other games the exact situations go unpunished has not helped, as playing with ten men repeatedly in such short of a time will disrupt any team.)Comment

This is a two-horse race for the title, Arsenal have looked awful for a while and their recruitment has been really terrible.
One single first team player missing so they don’t even have that excuse, but also missing one player transforms their entire game from expansive and always dangerous to the worst football you’ll ever see. That just can’t be the case if you’re a team trying to regularly challenge for major silverware.
Both Arteta and Arsenal fans really need to stop trying to prove what a genius Arteta is via the whole Havertz thing. The fact that he’s the starting striker still is insane. So much shakeup with the top teams this season and Arsenal have their worst run of games since Arteta’s first season.
This feels like a major learning moment for Arteta as a coach that he currently is just not grasping. You can’t have no plan B when your plan A revolves so heavily around a single player.Comment

Could recruitment be better, yes, and even though it has been several years, I think it's further proof at how incredibly **** that squad was, as it has had to been rebuilt entirely. Doesn't mean I haven't been underwhelmed a bit by recruitment, but if Calafiori (he's also a first-team player) is at LB and Timber at RB today, for starters, I don't think there would be as many grumbles regarding recruitment. Arsenal were very lucky last year in terms of injuries, but have been a bit unlucky so far this season—but that's how it goes.
As for the play and tactically, that has been absolute ****—far worse than recruitment—far worse.Comment
