Hobsons Choice

Only side in all major european leagues with 100% record!!

I know. I kind of feel a bit guilty. It’s weird.

You’ve won the thread, sir.

Won it on corners!

Yyyyyyyyeeeeaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!! ROOOOOOOOSSSS

Yeah, ask Van Dijk

We could have done without the international break tbf.

I should think so. I don’t have the overheads of maintaining a 40,000 seater stadium in my front room.

Wow, just seen the Pickford tackle. That was shockingly bad. Looked like he meant it to me.

Lawro couldn’t predict tomorrow’s sunrise. Although in fairness, in this instance it’s a tricky one to call. I’ve seen Leicester play sublimely and like utter dog turd this season.

Am I right in saying Vardy is injured? Last thing I want to see is their belligerent little hobgoblin diving for a penalty in the 93rd minute.

We joke about Brentford being frustrating to deal with, but in truth that just illustrates how exceedingly well run they are at board level.

Sky did something similar with boxing, and it virtually killed the sport.

It’s too much for me. You pay a match ticket for the experience as well as the football itself. The buildup, the ambience, sitting in the stands. £15 to sit in my living room and watch a match once is way too much. Monthly subscription of 15 would be more like it. Let me ask another question. If MOTD was not free, how much would you pay for it. The only difference is editing.

Awesome video.

Noted, but it was kind of a joke.

We could take Antonio off their hands to make space.

There is so much lazy journalism when it comes to football, though. It's probably because it's so subjective. It may even be because of unconcious bias. I saw Garth Crooks 'team of the week' a couple of days ago, and despite us smashing the champions 7-2, and going unbeaten in the league there were only 2 villa players on it. Those two: Ollie Watkins who scored a hat trick (you could get that from the headlines without even watching the match) and Ross Barkley, who's on loan from a 'proper club'. Fair play they did play well, but even the most cursory glance at stats would have shown that Grealish had at least as much impact as Ross, and if you'd only even seen the highlights you would know that he ran the show. Honestly, for whatever reason, I don't think the pundits watch any game in detail unless it involves the big 5. And in our case it did!
