@ErlingRoIe You do realize that we all understand you lot “sell” the tickets right? Our argument is that (quite obviously) the sold tickets don’t result in a similar number of bums in seats on match day. WE THINK YOUR SCAMMY CLUB INFLATE YOUR “REVENUE” THROUGH INTERNAL INVESTMENT.

@shirkering Exactly right. Ken and Barbie storylines in the real world were far more funny, interesting, and societally critical than the Ken and Barbie storylines in Barbieland. I don’t think we needed to return to Barbieland after the opening.

@LfcShaunjudge we scored 20 seconds past 96. if you watched the game at 90 mins or so Luton delay taking a throw by like 20 seconds while referee very animatedly demands they do so quickly while marking time on his watch as he waits.

@themichaelowen Michael, if you wanted to be taken seriously you could have asked something insightful like “they dismiss the foul and handball quite quickly, should both of those not be referred to the onfield referee to review? Also the referee seems to cite rules incorrectly re: handball.”

Arsenal had 22 fouls vs Porto's 14. Arsenal also had 65% poss. If we possession-adjust these fouls we get 31.4 fouls (per 45 min of opp. poss.) for Arsenal, 2.9x higher than the 10.7 for Porto. Compared to ~600 champions league matches from 2021-2024 these are EXTREME outliers

@NSftbl IT. DOESNT. MATTER. WHO. “INITIATES”. CONTACT. That’s not a coherent concept. The attacking player is allowed to keep moving forward without illegal impediments (non ball winning) being put in his way by cynical defenders. This a CLEARLY cynical fouling by TWO defenders.
