Not really joined up is it?

They replaced Lukaku with shrek. And Koeman either shipped off or pissed off many of their better players.

Still think Nacho would have done a better job for them though - at least he would have played

Not tearing up trees mate. I'm starting to think he looked good among City players, but I'm not sure where he'll end up

It was probably the BEST piece of business City have ever done, when it comes down to selling players...normally we sell them for a bar of chocolate or 50 p.

And to think Rooney is forking out £250,000 a week to watch his favourite club play.

Fuck off Arsenal you shit dodgy fucks.

Arsenal win with an injury time peno

0ne of my ('Crackpot') friends reckons Bill Kenwright ought to take over the Brexit negotiations for the UK; it's only cost him £135 million to get Everton out of Europe.

Was it so bad, even Sky said it was controversial?

I've not seen the penalty award Beefy. Just commented as Arsenal seem to have a habit of doing that at Burnley

Ramsey went down like a sack of spuds after barely any contact

If the Wonga Man managed to see that, no doubt he'll be chastising Ramsey most seriously.

I did say 'if'...........

Watched a bit of Valencia -Barcelona. The Valencia DM Geoffrey Kondogbia looked very composed, broke up play, made some telling passes, seemed a bit static at times but wonder if he could be a long term replacement for Fernandinho? {Edit} Should've done some research! He is on loan from Inter and Valencia have an option to buy at the end of the season for £22m. That's a steal if he plays like that every week.

No goal line technology in La Liga - Valencia keeper dropped the ball over his own line, dived back and palmed it away but miles over the line. Only two people in the whole stadium didn't see it. Same happened to Barca last year. Such a shame.

I've been praising this lad for ages - a Gundog / Kondog midfield would be worth barking about

I feel sorry for Wenger. Last week he had to complain to the officials for awarding his team two off-side goals and this week he's had to complain for them awarding a seriously dodgy penalty in order for his team to win in the last minute. Poor bloke.

I see the Fail are reporting about the Lukaku incident.

Just out of curiosity, did Sky have this incident running on a loop?

I don't recall anything about it on match of the day.

Poll has said he will get one. Doesn’t get any clearer does it really.

It's a strange rule. It basically means that we got lucky that Fern got a yellow during the game, otherwise he probably get a three game ban. I get it that it's meant to have a long term effect to deter players from diving, but as it is now, it is quite arbitrary/unfair.

Yep, you get banned for conning the ref but if the ref is competent and spots the dive then it's a yellow. Ridiculous!

I think its more about offsetting the fact that the team gained a pen and potentially a goal out of simulation. If they gained no real advantage then a yellow is sufficient.

Not sure I agree with it though.

I see where you're coming from but essentially we're getting two different punishments for the same offence.
