Genuinely extraordinary reaction to players withdrawing from friendly, non-competitive international games. Never seen anything like it.

It’s absolutely, definitely not a farmers league. No sir.

All time PL XI Alisson Walker VVD Terry Cole Rodri Gerrard KDB Salah Kane Henry

Absolutely horrendous challenge

Looking incredibly spooky

Raya, Timber, Calafiori, and Odegaard all hopefully to come in at the Etihad. It’ll be a different team and hopefully a different game. Can’t pretend today wasn’t a bad one though.

This does not sound good at all Martin we are gonna need you to get yourself sorted my friend

So, so lucky it’s not a red

Pretty fine with that being a penalty tbh, careless

Let’s FUCKING GO

That could be the end of Kinsky’s career of any note by the way. Got to feel for him.

Not a good 20 minutes for ‘could spurs win the CL and get relegated’

Not seen it for a few years but it really does feel like West Ham are doing that thing where one of the relegation candidates turns in European-level performances for a stretch

Look on the bright side Spurs fans You’ll probably be able to sing ‘Champions of England’ next May.

Important to lead with the headline that Arsenal are the ‘villains of the title race’ and would be ‘unpopular champions’ as they go up against the team charged with 115+ counts of cheating to gain an unfair competitive advantage over the other premier league teams.

Just inject it into my veins. Directly in.

Enormous Long way to go.

This feels like something which sounds good in theory but would be a horrendous shit show in practice

I think City’s decade-old “innovation” with tactical fouling has been far more ruinous to the enjoyment of watching football than us being good at set pieces. I don’t recall the rules book-changing outcry we have gotten over something actually against the rules/spirit of the game. It’s weird.

Remarkable that Chelsea’s recruitment team spent so much money on the collectively the most braindead group of players known to man.

Please let it happen

I think carrying on as we do like almost all are welcome to compete because sport builds bridges, brings people together etc etc is a form of sportswashing in all honesty.

Looks to me like Wolves very much still give a fuck

Manchester City - a true underdog story

Can we all stop crying about this now?

SET PIECE AGAIN OLE OLE

All of Forest, Leeds and West Ham are better than Spurs at the moment btw. It will get very spooky very quickly if they don’t get some players back from injury.

Thankyou Tottenham

Arsenal get constantly derided for ‘dark arts’ when their title challengers have 130 cheating charges and have Rodri, Dias, and Bernardo in their XI

Incredible Arsenal get more coverage for 'cheating' because of crowded set pieces whilst a team with 115 charges have gone on to spend close a billion pounds and won several times since they were charged and nothing has happened and you barely hear about it anymore.

TNT absolutely delighted with that City win. Absolutely gushing.

Swedish opposition politician compares the country’s government to… Tottenham 😆

Think that Wolves equaliser goes right up there in the pantheon of 21st-century Arsenal nonsense. Had all the ingredients: - Unknown teenage debutant goal - Calamitous keeper-defender mix-up - Deep into stoppage-time - Title on the line / trophy up for grabs

I might feel differently about this in the morning but my sense here is that City are insane value at that price.

The weird thing is that Wolves only had one shot after Bueno's goal, the equaliser. Then again, Arsenal only had one too before Edozie scored and barely sniffed the penalty area (five touches). That's a team totally freezing up and forgetting what they can do well.

speaking in this headspace is a mistake. but I have never, ever seen Arsenal recover from something like this. i thought the emotional bomb had finally been defused but it's just detonated

We’ve bottled that. Completely and utterly stopped playing, let Wolves play. Going long and giving the ball back. No control. Unlucky to concede 2 but we allowed it to be possible.

Just so predictable. What’s the point in Martinelli/Hincapie/Timber today? Makes no sense at all.

Arteta knows a lot more than me but I’m just really struggling to understand some of these combinations vs an expected block Hopefully Wolves are just bad enough that it doesn’t matter

logged into twitter and it’s just a bin fire of terrible opinions over there. i do get the anxiety (and i am the most anxious boy who ever lived) but some people have lost their fucking minds. imo. respectfully.

I would love to see Brentford in the champions league for a season because I genuinely don’t think any team outside of the PL would know what’s hit them

For posterity, Man City’s away results: 4-0, 1-2, 1-1, 1-0, 0-1, 1-2, 5-4, 3-0, 2-1, 0-0, 0-2, 2-2, 2-1

Gutted about that but more about the performance than anything else That said, Brentford fucking excellent and deserved to win. Scammed a point in fairness.

First half not good enough, decent signs last 15 or so but still. Sloppy in possession and outfought for the most part. Big 45 coming up.

I need to report that I was looking at my FPL team earlier and a wild Adam Armstrong has appeared I will not be taking questions at this current time

Aside from the Etihad I think Thursday is probably the hardest game we have left tbh

If you want to know about ‘dark arts’ then watch Bernardo Silva. Nobody else in the league is a patch.

Were those goals satisfactory today or are people going to be calling for rule changes again
