There are 21 players with more caps than Ronaldo who holds the mens record, and he' s been pretty much first choice and free from injury for Portugal for 20 years. He would need to play 15 international games a year until he is 48 to beat the womens record. Edited December 6, 2023 by BigFatCoward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Horse Named Stranger Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 Btw. if you want to see some comedy gold. Check the Heuer-Fernandes own goal in the derby. You can thank me later. Just google it (too lazy to figure out which video is viewable in which country). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or an entire city selling their collective soul to a guy who chops up journalists and then dissolves the evidence in acid. I think we all know which is the more awful.

polishgenius Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 Setting all bias aside and speaking completely objectively, McTominay is the best midfielder in the league. AncalagonTheBlack 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ljkeane Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 (edited) So I’m still reasonably sure De Bruyne comes back and City cruise to the title but a 6 point deficit is starting to become a little bit of a challenge. ETA: This is the best anyone’s played against City this season. Arsenal were lucky to win and Liverpool and Spurs were lucky to draw really. Villa seem well worth their lead here. Emery really is doing well. Edited December 6, 2023 by ljkeane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emery really is doing well. I'm just checking in on sky sports and they are really talking up how deserved this is for villa so far. When we had our full team we absolutely humped them like nobody else has, what might have been. Tonali had the best debut I've ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polishgenius Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 That was a good performance but it's still a big problem that we only scored two. Chelsea are so bad. We've had moments where we look like some of our players don't want it enough, but nothing compared to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's going to be a good title race this season. Liverpool and Arsenal are both looking good with Liverpool having the added advantage of having a squad with the experience of getting 90+ points and taking a title race down to the wire. 8 minutes ago, polishgenius said: That was a good performance but it's still a big problem that we only scored two.

Our forwards are fucking useless and we almost fucked this game because of their incompetence. Thank goodness McTominay isn't allergic to hitting the back of the net.

polishgenius Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 Couple of notes: Antony spent most of the game, when we were in possession, pushing up against the nearest defender, calling for the ball and aiming to beat them with his first touch. Which was great, because his first touch is probably his best attribute and not trusting himself to do that more was exactly what I was complaining about a few days ago. Hojlund was blunt as a finisher, but the difference in energy between him and Martial is crazy. I don't even think that's a desire issue for Martial, the injuries have fucked him up so much the dude can barely run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigFatCoward Posted December 7, 2023 Author Share Posted December 7, 2023 Arsenal aren't going to want to go to Villa at all this weekend, i think thats 14 home wins in a row now. If they come out of back to back City and Arsenal with 6 points what a fucking week that is. I don't think they can win iit all, but its great for the league, other than another top 4 rival.
