Boys, I’ve had a drink.but damn, my genes and my heart are still with ‘pewl.
Premier League 17/18

- Start date
Okay - I had more than one drink.
Anyway, I mentioned in this or the UCL thread that I think Liverpool had been hard done by refs quite often. When I saw the bias discussions elsewhere, it reminded me of this article.
Here's empirical proof, that playing for Liverpool or being foreign is bad. Seriously, whether you care about LFC or not, this is good stuff that's worth your time.

Even after the growth #THFC £127m wage bill is still miles behind the rest of the Big Six. The closest is Arsenal, £72m higher at £199m, while Manchester United’s £264m is more than twice as much. #MCFC covers a 13 month accounting period, so would be £244m for 12 months. pic.twitter.com/7iX8EDMpBB

Damn, Burnley really makes every bill count. Lowest wage bill and punching as a solid #7 club in the table and 4th best goals allowed.
Edit: just realized that graphic is last season, so their wage bill probably went up, but still impressive.

In other news, apparently you can get a goal in the PL just for breathing on the ball now.
(Full disclosure: yes, I am a Salah fanboy, but I really don’t care about this as it pertains to the boot race. It’s just a bizarre situation all the way through.)

My striker - No look goals.

Your striker - No touch goals. pic.twitter.com/O4Oq3hCbKZ
I loved how Poch said he didn’t want to make it a big deal.He used the force is all.
Yeah right. He threw a massive whiny fit all over the place and wouldn’t let it rest. All to take a goal from a teammate.
Kane's just an unlikeable SOB to everyone except Spurs fans. Great striker. Total (totally not self-aware) asshole.
But just like you on the Forums, he’s our asshole. So we love him just the same :kissingheart:
Close. But I’m self-aware.
Aaaand City clinch today by dint of United losing, at home, to the worst team in the Premier League.
Congrats to Manchester City!
Congrats to Manchester City!
Really, who can complain. City always going to win, and Manure made it fun by taking an L to WBA.
Only way the weekend could have been better is if Soton didn’t totally lose their heads. What a disaster on their part.
Can I just ask, completely honestly and innocently, how does someone like Everton not just offer a boat load of money for Giroud and start him every game? He is so skillful and dominant in the box. It’s an indictment of the entirety of the league, excepting Spuds, Pool and City, that he’s a backup at Chelsea.
And here’s my smoldering hot take, just to make sure I piss off everyone who isn’t a Red:
DeBruyne or Eirikson, either one (but not both together), would be better at Liverpool, especially DeBruyne.
Could you imagine him with Gini/Milner/Hendo/Can feeding him balls and being his defensive legs while he could only worry about picking out one of three tireless runners coming in from all sorts of angles?
30 assists? 40 isn’t even out of the question, is it?
Plus, that beautiful ginger playmaker still loves us deep down. Damnit. I wish upon wish that would happen, even though there’s no shot whatsoever.
Add that to his defense of the bus incident, I’d say he’s ready to make his mark at Merseyside’s European football cathedral.
/end troll on the board but not in my heart.

Always time to troll Mancs of either color.This thread should be dead today. Who can focus on the EPL with our massive game tonight?!?
The story goes that we did, and his wife refused to move to Liverpool.
Take that for what you will.
Just so we’re clear, that wasn’t a troll.
And now that you mention it, it does seem like I read that.
