    it won't be, will change the game.

    Liverpool's goal the other day would never have happened, for example.

    And thats a problem? If it should not of been a goal then fair enough. 

    VAR if executed properly could actually add to the game IMO. Poor implementation of any new rule/aspect of the game would of course not be a good thing. So its all how they implement it.

    Seems sort of... not in poor taste per se, but not really in the best taste. Pretty mawkish to posthumously give somebody a CGI on-screen demise imho.

    Ordinarily I would probably agree with this but as we are talking the realm of fantasy and comic books and Lee being such a significant figure and influencer in that world I personally think it’s a lot more acceptable than it would ordinarily be. It’s a world of nods, Easter eggs, geekish thrills etc etc. His very enthusiastically performed cameos to date could even suggest that his personality would not only be down with such but would maybe love the idea.... i of course could be wrong but I do suspect Lee would get a kick out of it... However, if it did have potential to upset his family then it should 100% not happen....

    Avengers 4 should start with a replay montage of the heroes fading away after the finger click of doom and the final part should be it happening to Stan Lee, his final cameo.

    Stan Lee fading out like that would be an excellent last cameo............get on to Disney! ;)

    he says he's never bet on football, so one or the other side of this story looks to be seriously wrong.

    I'm guessing the "never bet" part is correct, because its a daft excuse to give if you have made footie bets, as making footie bets isn't wrong in itself (only particular types of bets).

    He probably told someone about his move to West Brom when he should not have and then that someone cashed in.......... If thats the case his statement is probably true but his actions will have him in trouble

    Good place is brilliant. I wasn't sure how they were going to do s3, but it's maintained the insane fast pacing and constant wit. 

    Thought the last episode was a weaker one. Did not care too much for the Jason story.........

    When have spurs challenged at the top?

    they haven't, but they've been hovering around the bottom of the top 4 recently

    A tad unfair. They were the nearest challengers for most of the 2015/2016 season is memory serves

    In what way?

    When people are arrested in Britain /Ireland newspapers are restrained from publishing material that might prejudice a possible trial. The suspect's reputation is also protected by the law of libel. This is not so much the case in the US due to the 1st amendment...

  8. Juve should have kept their traps shut on this one. There is no need for those tweets at all. They cause more problems and help with nothing IMO.

    Money, distance and borders will keep Ronnie safe on this one most likely, but what Der Spiegel claimed to have uncovered and have seen does not look well for him.

    Have you all seen this?

    https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/premier-league-clubs-charging-children-13331477

    I always assumed the mascots were either local kids or members of the kids teams. Charging that amount of money is obscene. The amount of money Premier League clubs make I refuse to believe an extra £700 per home match matters that much to them!

    Ah FFS. I just assumed they always used links with charities and local bodies etc to give back to sick/disadvantaged kids. But charging (and a pretty penny in some instances) just makes it a benefit for the privileged. Its a bit scummy.

    Very expensive to sack him now though. May have to be at the end of the season. 

    Surely a club like Utd would not think like that with the cash they have in their pockets? If he is the problem at the club then it should be worth every penny to get rid? 

    Id say if the hierarchy at Utd believe Moany is the problem then they are probably lineing up the replacement as we speak and will give Jose the P45 as soon as they can

    they also had enough chances to put the game to bed.

     

    This is the part they will be most unhappy about as so far this season they have got away with this “problem” until now. They need to be more clinical if they are going to be a serious serious threat to the trophies and so far even though they have won their 7 previous  they have left a lot on the pitch in way of scuppered chances 

  12. Salah needs to learn to adapt his game with the attention he is now going to get due to making himself a superstar last year. I dont know if rest is what he needs. I dont pretend to know how his mind works, but he may simply want to keep going until it clicks again for him. If he is getting the majority of the attention then the others on the team should have a better chance to succeed. If he is mindful of that and that in fact materializes he should be OK with not banging in goals every single game, so long as the team are doing OK and his contribution is, in effect, making a difference. I dont think a selfish, self centered mindset will last too long in Klopps squad, no matter the talent.

    Yeah I clocked that too. Surely has to be a case of just bad timing (he was unhappy about something else at the same time) rather than him being annoyed Firmino scored? Thats my hope anyway :lol: 

    I believe he was celebrating the goal before the camera went to Klopp and then he threw the bottle on the ground in that manner most likely out of relieved frustration with himself and the situation. I think............ 

  14. It was obvious PSG were afraid to go for it. They were poor because they feared the break. Their number one priority was to try continuously take the sting out of Liverpool approach. With their front three there is a certain madness to that....however it nearly worked for em with the Pool not putting it to bed when they should have.
