Wow!

The mighty rags goal difference is up to a very impressive +1!

 

[Exeter Blue I am here]

The jammiest fuckers going!

Not based on that showing they weren’t. They played exactly like Chelsea did yesterday, today. Could and should have scored 7 or 8 on the counter. Clean through again and again. And at the other end they won pretty much every header.
If Pep goes with Akanji and Alvarez against them, it might be a longer afternoon than we’d expect

How to dampen the evening even more! I bet he does too.

It's a weird one. Results wise they've improved but they're often second best. I agree though it will be a tough game against them. Mind you until Pep stops us getting hit on the break every game I'm starting to fear every game.

Think they’ll get 4th unfortunately.

How are they doing it , outplayed every game never in control of the game but the points are amassing ?

Then finish bottom of their CL group.

Playing crap teams who don't take their chances

Very surprised seeing it was a rag involved, that the Sky commentators didn't apologise for the "Fucking cheat" comments about the Dinner Lady being picked up on their pitchside microphones.

22 shots conceded today and Luton only managed 1 goal.
Villa had 23 and again shit the bed in front of goal.
West Ham had 22 to Rags 12 and missed sitters and somehow lost 3-0.
Only Their 4-3 win at Wolves is where they had more attempts than the opposition ( 21 to 16j in 2024.
Spurs 16 to Rags 9 and again missed chances and drew.
Even Newport had 17 attempts v them.

No idea how they keep on picking up wins despite being 2nd best In games
