EPL Matchday 10

[Art Vandelay_]

They’re dirty as fu** and have been for years. Son, Dier and Lamela the worst of them. Reguilon seems to fit right in too. Media never calls them out either.

Tissue?

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Lol. Where on earth are you getting your stats from?

CL coverage midweek. Mentioned that 17 of his 21 United goals were pens.

Yes, I heard this too.

 

[SM]

No way..

I'm at a loss for why you interjected with Bamford then.

Bruno hasn’t even scored 17 from the spot with us yet.

Bruno hasn’t even scored 17 from the spot with us yet.

Bullshitometer is off the chart one feels on this one.

 

[SM]

I just can't fathom that anyone heard that stat and didn't have any critical thinking about whether that even sounded remotely plausible.

If it is a false stat so be it. No big deal and not worth much discussion really.

As you can see, two (so far) from here heard it said.

And zero did any follow up research before asserting it as fact.

That's what I was thinking. 17 penalty goals without even completing a full season is just an absurd number.

 

[Zidane98]

And zero did any follow up research before asserting it as fact.

There is discussion of Bruno being involved in 17 goals excluding penalties. That's the only place 17 has been use in conjuction with Bruno Fernandes stats, clearly some have turned that into him scoring 17 pens.

 

[SM]

He's scored 12 in roughly a full season which sounds much more reasonable. I'd expect Kane will score a similar number from the spot this term.

Maybe some aren’t as anal as you.

 

[Memphis]

CL coverage midweek. Mentioned that 17 of his 21 United goals were pens.

Of course they did, I'm sure Graeme Souness was the front runner.

Bullshitometer is off the chart one feels on this one.

First season VAR is going against Liverpool?

[Cruyff14]

First season VAR is going against Liverpool?

In fairness, they have had 8 calls go against them this season, more than any other team.

^Didnt realise Roy had a sense of humour....well done

What a half game by Cavani! Excellent pass to Fernandes when others would have just pumped in a high cross. Then excellent movement on both those headers not to mention execution.

Chelsea Spurs was a very mediocre game. Arteta and Arsenal in some trouble.

Unlikely since we have only received 2 so far. Salah with 4 and Vardy with 5 already are more likely to go close to 12

United - Torquay
Rovers - Shamrock

7 is your answer.

It says all comps. Add in his penalties in the Europa against PSG, Sevilla, Copenhagen and Bruge. And one in the FA Cup against Chelsea.

12 is your answer.

 

[Pykie]

As far as Albion goes Brighton, West Brom and Burton have all joined together to look at trademarking the name Albion.

Brighton, West Brom and Burton 'in bid to trademark

Along with interest from West Brom and Burton, Brighton are looking to trademark the 'Albion' part of their club name in order to prevent football supporters from buying fake merchandise.

www.dailymail.co.uk

Trademarking a 2,600 year old word and one that has been incorporated into all corners of the Commonwealth for hundreds of years pre-dating the football clubs.


Good luck with that one.

12 is your answer.

So basically if we were to remove Bruno’s 12 penalties, he will have still scored 9 goals and assisted 13 to KDB’s 10 goals (5 were penalties) and 13 assists since February 1st? That is elite.

Add the penalties in and Bruno is statistically unmatched against any midfielder in the PL.

Yes you're right I was looking at all comps for Kane where he has 4. But just PL he's unlikely to go close. Vardy should though.

One thing I've learned from nearly 20 years on BF is that sometimes opposition supporters wont rate players on your team that you like, and in the whole scheme of things it doesnt matter even a little bit.
