Can we get back to football please gents, this is just an argument now :ROFLMAO:

Looking forward to getting back to Villa Park tomorrow night, feels like its been ages! Squad is fit and healthy and its going to be a very interesting second half of the season for Villa fans!
Yeah, sweeping controversial football related incidents under the carpet:

I'm delighted the Premier League is back (I don't count Saturday's game, sorry Burnley fans). No doubt I'll be shouting at my screen tonight, and then providing a lengthy statement at how bad United were after the game.
 
Not if they're the NUFC fans! ;) COYB!!!
Hopefully they will be ones scowling in the car (y)

As long as someone puts ear plugs in Jordan's ears then I really fancy us tonight. I think Saturday will have done them the world of good and only the Toon fans getting to him, they manage it every season :rolleyes:, will stop us from winning. (I may regret this confidence later :oops:)
 
Do you like a hoisin wrap?
Are you just trying to give reasons for why you feel animal cruelty is not as bad as cruelty to humans? If so, keep going all you like, as you are just giving more reasons to clarify the original point I already made, in which I clearly stated this is what society thinks, and as such Zouma will be treated relatively lenient. Zouma is what made this topic connected to football, and I was interested in the implications to him, rather than where the line is in terms of animal cruelty. If you want to get into the depths of that, it really needs a new thread.

I might be surprised, maybe it'll turn out that yourself and many others enjoy drop kicking a cat across a room from time to time, feel there is no reason to get into trouble about it, and justify it claiming it is no worse than eating a burger or a hoisin wrap :)

Nobody has tried to justify zoumas actions

All you have done is brought greenwood into the debate who shouldn't even be linked to football right now.

Zouma will be punished, it wont be as severe

A better example would be say Gerrard, Andy Carroll and alike who have beaten up humans and still played football and in Gerrard's case been a hero

No one is arguing with you. No one cares about whataboutery, you brought one of your players into it, when it clearly isn't related at all. Finit.
 
I wouldn't have expected it of him, no. Disappointing.

All the Chelsea people I know said he was well liked, and followed him at Stoke and Everton and both wanted to keep him as he was well liked and worked hard

What a let down
 
I do get puzzled with the use of Sancho. He gets a global reputation as an excellent right winger. United buy him, but then prefer Greenwood on right. I get that, due to the late purchase of Ronaldo.

However, Greenwood is unavailable, I'd have thought they'd slot Sancho in his favoured position. But no. Put Rashford on right, despite the fact he is usually on left, and then Sancho on left.

It is almost like they want Sancho to fail, or they think they need to think outside the box rather than going with the obvious. Or, maybe he just isn't very good on the right after all?
 
Sorry to be a bit late to ask this, but I watch the West Ham game and I've watched the winning goal over and over. Why wasn't it offside? I've chacked the current rule and it seems to me the bloke who toe poked it home was in an offside position when he received the ball, or have I missed something?
