I'm coming back for my crow. Please cool it medium with an egg on top, please.

Well done sir. Since you returned for your crow I will happily cook it as you desire.

If you say you hate the state of politics in this nation and you don't get involved in it, you obviously don't hate the state of politics in this nation.

Not sure how accurate this is, but if game results were based on xG, here's how the table should've looked:

Not enough is being said about Chelsea finishing 6th (of 7 teams) in the London table.

Also, I just realized that with City's 9th title they move into a tie with Everton for 4th most all time.

That's interesting. Three teams I thought would go down at beginning of season (Forest, Wolves and Bournemouth) all had the worst xG. Leeds and Fulham had about the same xG, but what a difference between the two.

This is so so worrying to see and we hope Anthony and his family are ok.
This is why we believe organisations like the @LMA_Managers and the @PFA as well as the @WeAreTheFSA need to come out and condemn such behaviour in this country.

I'm guessing that's a ref? What game and what teams?

An hour after the EL Final, Mourinho found Anthony Taylor and ripped into him for his refereeing performance. Tons of f-bombs...just laid into him. It made the rounds on social media and now Roma fans are following suit.

I mean, they might have done this anyway, but feel confident that Mourinho's outburst egged them on even more.

Honestly, if they want to shut that **** down, ban Roma from Europe for 2 years. I don't care how bad the refereeing performance was, harassing/spitting/throwing chairs at a man and his family is totally unacceptable.

I'm not shocked though. European fans are some of the worst on the planet

I saw that he handed out a bunch of yellow cards, but was it one sided towards Roma? Did he miss a blatant PK or something?

I can't find an English tweet with this video, but this is the incident that has them all riled up.

I honestly do not understand the handball rule anymore. Was reviewed and still not given, seen handball given for way less obvious ones. Absolute joke no wonder Jose was fuming #EuropaLeagueFinal #EuropaLeague #SevillaRoma #UEFAEuropaLeague https://t.co/28UneUfUxf

Removed my comment after rewatching again. This is pretty egregious stuff IMO. Or ridiculously careless. But I do think handball needs serious work. Or even better, PKs need serious work so these incidents aren't so make-or-break.

Still doesn't justify people throwing things at him and his family.

No, certainly not, but it does explain why Jose was so pissed.

He still shouldn't have done what he did either, and I hope he gets slapped with a huge UEFA ban… but in the immortal words of Chris Rock - "I understand."

The Saudi PIF now owns majority stakes in each of these Saudi clubs and has also invested in Chelsea's majority owner Clearlake Capital. Chelsea co-owner Todd Boehly visited Saudi Arabia this month and now Chelsea are selling unwanted, high-earning players to these teams... https://t.co/5k7viacW0h

Yup. The genie is out of the bottle. There's no stuffing him back in. That's why I find these articles attacking United for their potential sale to the Qataris so disingenuous. It's over. The sovereign wealth funds are already fully in the game.

And I'm obviously kidding except that I'm not really. Son is aging rapidly. Kane is likely going to be gone pretty soon (they can put it off until next year for free, I suppose, but it seems almost inevitable). They have big problems at mid-field and defense. I guess the Brentford guy is an upgrade over Loris, as is Pickford I guess, but not that much. They need to fill a lot of holes, and I don't hear them doing to much yet in the transfer window.

So, to me, if they really aren't going to do anything, what's the plan? Hope your club doesn't become the next Everton (with less trophies)?

So I'm kidding, but not really, they should be doing anything they can to sell right now in my honest opinion.
