I had a senior moment I thought the penalty taker couldnt score from the rebound ! That another player had to touch the ball lol.
Dont know where that thought came from lol. I know the penalty taker cant score if it comes back of the wood work but for some reason thought it was same if the keeper saved it ;)

Keeper plays you onside. It is cruel, but it is so.

Might be an idea to play Torres as striker again.

Not forgetting a new 12 away win record!!!

Be interesting to see a list of all these records over the past few season. Seems we break one every other week :-)

Going to break one for the amount of people trying to get in for the Everton game from what I have been reading on the ballot thread.

Touche! Or so I thought. If you read the full description, that house is an old hotel that needs gutting to turn it into a home. The pictures are a CGI impression of what it might look like if you coughed up another wad to do it up. God knows what it looks like inside at the moment.

Anyway thanks for posting it. Never seen a virtual house before.

Only the first 5 images of the kitchen/dining room are CGI the rest are what it looks like now.

Comprehension is an important skill not just something you did at school ;)

Scott Carson looks older than me, and I'm 55, fair play to the lad, bet the game's one of his favourite memories.

I think it depends on whether another player touches it first before it’s scored. The rules I read say..

The kicker must not play the ball again until it has touched another player.

As everyone seems to be saying this was a thoroughly enjoyable and entertaining and enjoyable match but I suspect it served merely to confirm the ideas Pep already has about the CL final team rather than challenge them. I think we all suspect that Pep is sure of the team and only injury will change it. Ederson will be in goal, so it was a nice gesture to play Scott last night. He's clearly popular with the squad and he did nothing wrong. Neither of the two centre backs will figure in the CL team. I have been impressed with Ake whenever he has played, but I was singularly unimpressed last night. Garcia was absolutely fleeced for Newcastle's third and Walker ( who's own performance was uneven) had little choice but to concede the penalty. We need Walker's pace against Chelsea but whether we need Cancelo's bad temper and petulance is a different matter with the ever reliable Zinchenko available. Gundo and Bernado did no harm at all to their chances but Raheem again failed to impress. He seems to have lost his ability to intervene decisively, doesn't beat his man at all regularly and is too ready to slow the attack down and play a "safe" pass. Jesus plays well, always works hard and set up a goal last night but he tends to operate in wide areas rather than in the middle and I certainly wouldn't pick him in preference to Phil Foden! Torres certainly showed what a prospect he is but I don't think he is yet to be considered a real threat to (a fit!) KdB who will probably operate as a false 9. Which leaves a choice between Rodri and Ferna. Sentiment clearly puts me in Ferna's camp, but I think his performance against PSG was so excellent that he will get the nod in a "one off" big game.

had a weird 24 hours and didnt actually know the score until this morning - looked exciting

1) Why did Scott Carson play?
2) highlights doing the rounds?

thanks all, not normally like me to be so in the dark
