Lovely goal from Sterling, Poch looks like he’s building his confidence back up.

I'm on the athletics at the moment (blooming rugby on too!) but thought Sterling looked really sharp at the weekend. Perhaps he isn't quite good enough to drag a failing team up a level but can perform to his best when everyone around him is too?
 
He seen the incident thought but decided not to say anything.
Thats not a mistake ,It’s not doing your job.

mistakes I accept ,but this was deliberate !

In my mind it's akin to match fixing. He's chosen (not) to make a decision that is very likely to have affected the outcome of the game. Also possible that if Chelsea had scored and gone on to win that game that Tuchel would've been given more time. Butterfly effect coming from the video ref deciding that he didn't want to do his job.

He’s still top class, I’d say it was just a poor season, maybe more going on in his head than just football for whatever reason, but in my opinion he’s far too good to stay down for long.
 
If the PL decided it wanted it's referees to be micced up, and just did it, what can FIFA do? Ban England from the next World Cup. Dish out fines?
Not sure. All that you say, probably suspend the refs from international duty as well as they would be complicit. They may also get English clubs suspended from European competitions, CL etc

Ultimately, it isn't a big enough deal, certainly not big enough to go against the world governing body for.
 
Just seen Tyler Adams being interviewed in advance of the Bournemouth v Spurs game on TNT Sports. I have to say, what a nice, eloquent and clearly intelligent fella he is. And what a pleasant change from some players who struggle to form a coherent sentence.
 
Jeez looking at that spurs line up I'd only take son, Richarlson and maybe Maddison to back up paquata

What's happened at spurs , few years ago the team was outstanding

They were discussing Richarlison on the radio yesterday.
Apparently he’s on scored 1 prem goal for spurs 😬

What do you mean? Romero would walk into the West Ham team, Bissouma would most likely get in as well. On what planet is Maddison only back up to Paqueta?? 4 goals 3 assists last season to Maddison's 10 & 9 in a worse team! Udogie looks like a decent young talent, who even is West Ham's left back?? Still the Chelsea reject?

He was a stupid signing really. Not because he's crap, but because he was always going to spend the first season struggling for minutes given that his best position is where Son plays - and if he was bought to take over from Kane that's daft because I don't believe he's a central striker really. Ok he plays alright there for Brazil, but in a Prem season I don't think he gets more than scraping double figures.
 
Maddison is rammel and has scored.😂😂👍

Just for the record Haaland, Grealish, Silva, Foden, Rodri, Ederson, Doku, Alvarez and a few other in the City team are rammel as well. Fingers crossed for tomorrow 😉

Calm down, calm down...
You're not part Lancastrian by any chance are you???

Emerson is very good tbh, full backs not much difference

Romero over zouma or aguard I'm not sure tbh

Paquata is a level above Maddison, if it wasn't for the betting scandle he was off to city for 85 mil
