August Football Thread - finally we're back

[safebruv]

Was literally trying to put his arm behind his back to not give away a pen

[silentcommand]

Can’t even block the ball with your arm without conceding a penalty these days.

@anon26542726

Should have pulled his arm off and chucked it away really quickly

I was talking about Chris Kavanagh here btw

[anon26542726]

Tell you who seems like a complete jabroni, that Brenden Aaronson

Mf out here calling himself Brenden Aaronson when it should obviously be Brendon Aaronsen

[bugduv]

Sorry, but you’d have to either be at it or pissed to think that’s a pen.

Or Brendan Aaronson I guess, who cares

[safebruv]

Good idea

[the_dazzled]

Yeah really excellent point amid all the penalty furore

[Roughyed]

Why not both

Haven’t seen it

[shrewbie]

Big if

[nestor]

The right decision but if it was the other way I’d have been gutted. Just a really crap, unfortunate way to concede a match-defining chance.

Won’t complain. Felt like something like that was the only way a goal was gonna be scored but feared it being a sickener against us.

Gonna be a slog of a season but delighted to see we can battle. Midfield worked brilliantly. Add a bit of genuine quality in the final third and we can be pretty decent.

@nestor

The right decision

you don’t believe this you cheeky monkey

[nestor]

Honestly dunno if I’m being biased but all the pundits and commentators seem to be saying the same thing. Harsh tbf.

Anyway this is good

Mad to think that if the season finished today City would be Champions, Sunderland would be runners up, Spurs would be third, Liverpool would be fourth, Forest would be fifth, Arsenal would be sixth, Leeds would be seventh, Brighton would be eighth, Fulham would be ninth, Villa would be tenth, Chelsea would be eleventh, Palace would be twelth, Newcastle would be thirteenth, Everton would be fourteenth, United would be fifteenth, Bournemouth would be sixteenth, Brentford would be seventeenth and Burnley, West Ham and Wolves would all be relegated in eighteenth, nineteenth and twentieth place respectively.

[TKC]

oh yeah, Burnley, Wolves and West Ham going down and Man City winning the title, absolutely mad to think that

[anon26542726]

But just imagine it!

[Archer]

Sounds good, let’s do it.

[Parsefone]

Leeds will struggle to eke out the points they need without the calming presence and silken touch of Kalvin Phillips, that much was clear.
