I suspect a little part of him, deep down, is actually enjoying all this. The longer they’re shit, the greater his achievements look.

I wouldn’t go as far as to say he planned all this but the evidence is there for all to see, that in his last few years he abandoned his long held youth development policies, for a quick fix reliant on aging players who could give him one good season.

If he genuinely had that club’s best interests at heart, he would fuck off from being a constant presence hanging around the place and only ever show his face on match days.

Ah look he knew he was retiring so didn't give a fuck about letting the squad age and RVP was definitely a short term signing, but he definitely didn't plan it.

Some players are great at generating goal scoring opportunities that others wouldn't. Let's not kid ourselves, Nunez is fantastic at this.

Some players are great at converting opportunities. We tend to over-praise these players because the likes of Sterling missing a chance is more obvious than the fact that 99% of players wouldn't be there to take that chance.

The greatest players do both.

They're paying some otherwise unemployable university graduate to massage Klopp's ego by telling him Dortmund weren't playing shite but unlucky in his last season. We've scored 36 against the coach wreckers 22, that's the only metric that matters. If Nunez is creating a huge number of chances that are being spurned by Klopp's hoofers, perhaps he moved to the wrong team.

As we all know we are part of Saudi Arabia and our human rights are a disgrace.
America on the other hand is a wonderful country.
Maurice Hastings was charged and found guilty of murder in 1983 in California. Prosecutors wanted the death penalty but he was sentenced to life without parole. He has always protested his innocence.
The police found semen at the scene of the crime......... and here comes the good bit.....
In 2000 his request for his dna to be compared to the semen found was DENIED by the District Attorney.
In 2021, yes 21 years later, he managed to get it checked and low and behold it wasn't his. It was that of a known criminal. It still took a year to release him !
Oh and he was, yes you guessed it, black.
What's that line in their national anthem 'the land of the free'. I don't suppose the Guardian will be reporting this story so I just thought I'd mention it.

Of course the Guardian is reporting it. Don’t confuse their idiot sports desk with their wishy washy liberal news team!

Bbc rag supporter asked it for a headline either way pep answer the question! Pep answered it right for me! Now if that same question was ask to Fergie in his pomp he would of laughed and bring up the the smashing his team just gave them and throw in the helping hand that team has had plus! One thing with fergie is he was a horrible person as a manager taking the piss out of other teams publicly and the players! Remember swp scoring a cracker against the rags he did he was lucky and scuffed it in! App the time we really needed terry cook and it came up about us wanting him and fergie said we might bring him back we could need him! Can’t stand that man he horrible horrible kunt of a manager at the time he was winning everything!

Look how pep deals with everything total chalk and cheese!

Take the Bournemouth 9 out, and their GD is a nice fat ZERO! The only time our GD is zero is probably mid July

No - He's creating chances for himself. It's inarguable that he gets a lot of shots away, and often from good positions that he's got himself into.

He appears not to have the technique to make the most of this skill, but then he also seems to take a lot of difficult to control first time hits. Not sure if xG takes into account how hard the technique is, as he could be boosting his xG further by taking on shots that even the best players would avoid.

One curious aspect is that his impressive goal scoring record last season was based on massively outperforming his xG. Perhaps he is one of those comic characters that discovers magic boots in a dump, but then loses them.

Ok, found my previous complaint, and linked a new one in. Asked for what actions were implemented the last time, and what will be done this time, as clearly the belief in false fact is still rife in the bbc sports website department.

Just looked on the bbc footy page online to check current scores, and for once the premiere league table isnt there accompianing the pl games, instead its the champions league group tables.

Tried refreshing, tried changing it to the pl table then refreshing it, but it still comes back as the cl tables.

Could this be a genuine "mistake" or are the red twats that "work" there as salty as fuck that we are top as I dont recall it like this before.

All I can say is he picked the right dump to lose them.

Newcastle are giving Villa a hiding and both Spurs and Chelsea are losing at the moment. They will probably cancel the table.
Edit: Spurs have just equalised so they might publish one later.
