Absolutely no one really thinks Harry Kane is a better player than Thierry Henry. No one.

Motson never had a clue what was going on
On This Day 1975 Match Of The Day cameras catch one of the infamous moments in the show's history. Leeds United’s Norman Hunter and Derby County’s Francis Lee, and their punch-up at The Baseball Ground. Commentator John Motson #LUFC #DCFC #MOTD

Osama infiltrating the home end when everyone knows he’s Arsenal. Bloody troublemaker
Never forget when Leeds fans sent cardboard cut-outs to be displayed at their home games during Covid 😭

That’s fine isn’t it? The longer Carrick stays in the job the more chance we have of a hilarious relegation
Look at this Bruno Fernandes tackle on Acheampong and tell me why referee didn’t give him a RED CARD? Pro Refs are a joke. They actually want Manchester United to win Chelsea to save Michael Carrick job

Hi Scott, if you or any Man City can prove that @themagic_tophat and I are the same person, I’ll donate £10,000 to a charity of your choice. But if you or any fellow fan try and fail, you have to donate £20 to cancer research. Deal?
Replying to @themagic_tophat
Absolute bell started chirping up last week ironically at the same time as @sportingintel no surpise there

Anyone doing a stutter run up for a penalty should be fined 3 months wages and made to write out “I will not be a twat again” 1000 times. That’s if they score. If they miss, 10 years prison, no remission

“Career ending tackle” that left Dowman completely unharmed and back on his feet in literally 2 seconds 🙄
Career ending tackle and it was Max Dowman who received the red card. Mikel Arteta was fuming with the 16-year-old. The Arsenal players were right there to defend him. Shocking decision.

You could argue the tackle was potentially dangerous and deserved a booking, but it caused Dowman no injury, and if you then shove a player with your leg with sufficient force to move his body a foot back then you’ll get a red card every time

That’s ridiculous
Not sure why there is a large block of empty seats near the halfway line and has been all game. Surely those passionate corporate fans were given umbrellas as part of their deal. Correct me if I’m wrong but that’s what happens when you give up prime seating to those who don’t fancy it on a rainy day…

Spurs may have moved off the bottom of the table but over their past 61 top flight seasons they’ve spent a month longer in last position than they have in first

Best midfield general in world football, and so unbelievably consistent. @_DeclanRice 👏

In the first 50 PL games of 26/27 there were only 2 VAR errors, as identified by the independent KMI panel: Haaland’s goal v ManU and Bruno G not getting a pen v Villa. 2 mistakes, both with a direct effect on Arsenal and the (sham) title race. Thanks “Pro Ref”
