Premier League 2016/17

Not really, but he has been quite good recently even with the occasional brainfart like that handball. At least Pogba is a midfielder that can score. Something that we are really lacking right now. Real Madrid got their midfielders bailing them out more often than BBC these days.

Not sure we need someone who shoots 3 or 4 times a game with 7-8% conversion rate.

both player were going for the ball, no intention there

There doesn't need to be any intent if it's dangerous.

Fernando Llorente scored 2 goals within 5 minutes during at the start of 2nd half.

Edit: Firminho scored the 1-2 goal for Liverpool

It's funny how many call him "Firminho". Probably a dinho thing, but his name is Firmino. No "h".

Sleep will be lost over this.

Thanks for the correction.

And speaking of Firmino, he just scored his 2nd goal.

Edit: And now Swansea has taken the lead again, Sigurðsson just scored.

"Firminho" is also the diminutive of the word "firme" in portuguese, "firm/sturdy" in english. Makes it even funnier when I read someone calling him firminho

What doesn't help is that Dutch commentators really mess up the pronounciations, this is especially the case with Turkish players. So hearing the commentator pronounce Firmino correctly doesn't help, as it might as easily have been Firminho pronounced incorrectly. But yeah, mistake on my part for naturally assuming every Brazilian name ends with nho. But at least I know that nho is pronounced 'nyo'.

Hearing Firmino personally reminds me of fermentation.

I don't know if this is good or bad for us a week away from our match against Pool.

Hopefully City win or draw with Spurs, an 8-9 point lead would be nice.

Clattenberg is taking the piss now. Handball and body check, fuck off.

 

[Morten]

I wonder if Peps job will be under pressure, if he loses this one.

 

[Ode to Django]

Fellaini on for them in box crosses lmao.. they hated moyes for bringing him. But botg of the supposed to be world class managers who came after him are relying on him

It's like they were looking for reasons to hate Moyes, imagine that

City are doing all right this game but their finishing is just not good.

I expect a spurs goal eventually and it all comes crumbling down.
