Thoughts and prayers for Harry Kane I hope he is able to fully recover from this violent assault.

Do yourselves a favor and watch the rocket that Michael Keane hit for Everton today vs Tottenham. Incredible strike.

I absolutely do not want him at Man United. He's a dirty player.

Naw. There's a few players in sports where I don't care how good they are or how much they would help my team that I still don't want. He's one of them.

Maybe if soccer incorporates something like the DH in baseball - a guy that could ride the bench and just take PKs.

Fulham's leading-scorer Aleksandar Mitrovic has already served one match of his ban. He will return in May against Southampton.#MyPLMorning | #FFC pic.twitter.com/zjNbNAB7we

Bad news for Fulham.

I'm really kind of shocked. I said he needed 10 but figured they would wuss out and give 4. They came close to 10. Good for them.

Now on the opposite side of the coin I wonder what FMF will do here:

But that eliminates Kane from doing the two things he does best: take cheap shots at defenders and flop to draw free kicks.

Yup. Kane reminds me of another Spurs player. Bowen would get under a 3pt shooters feet as they landed. Lots of sprained ankles. Kane likes to back under defenders as they jump for a ball.

What is Lampard's tactical style? Counter, possession, pressing, imbalanced, defensive? No way this works out well.

My favorite part is this was the same guy Chelsea fans were demanding be fired after just two months of bad results 2 years ago after going from 3rd to 7th over 8 weeks.

Just for kicks from the 2020-21 Chelsea Thread.

Fulham losing to west ham. Mitrovic and their manager are morons. Their meltdown against Man United for a 100% correct call is going to cost them a place in Europe.

Well to be fair, I don't think they were making Europe anyway. But you are correct, it was a completely idiotic moment. FA Cup game costing them dearly in the EPL.

I should have added a "chance" at a place in Europe. They were right there. But no chance now.
