    Martial and Varane out of contract next month - value still at 11m :56:

    Says it all about values, isn't what they'll get.

    That's a dive by Havertz.

    That is shocking that penalty stands.

    Nothing wrong with Bournemouth's disallowed goal. They've had a raw deal today.

    It was also more of penalty before the minor brush on the keeper.

    It was more a foul on the Bournemouth player getting held back. Just get rid of VAR already

    Hard to believe they ruled out that Bournemouth goal

    It doesn't look good when a team fighting for the title benefits from two huge game changing decisions like the pen and the disallowed goal.

    Penalty was a stone Waller. You don’t need contact for a foul. And he did make contact.

    I don't agree with that.

    The only reason there was contact is Havertz went limp and dragged his back leg along the floor.

    Maybe the case, but the keeper came out and didn’t get the ball. You can’t just fling your body into the path of an attacking player without winning the ball. There doesn’t need to be contact.

    it’s up there with the Dessers foul in the Derby early this season as far as misconceptions in football go. You know the type of foul where a player sticks his leg in front of a players leg just as said player is in the motion of striking the ball, causing the player in possession to strike the player (in that case Dessers)

    I’m going to love it if Arsenal win the league and Girona finish 2nd in la liga as it means Man City can’t compete in CL next season.
    It would be even funnier if City are found guilty on all those 115 charges and get dropped to at least the Championship and get points deduction and big fine.

    Spurs look woeful. This could end up anything. It should already be 4 or 5.

    Palace 2-0 up on Man Utd in 40 mins, great goals. Playing some good football since their new manager came in

    I’d say so as well. The revolving door will continue to revolve at Man Utd

    Never been convinced by ten Haag. Seems like a nice guy but think the jobs too big for him. I’d say he’s actually quite fortunate to have lasted as long as he has.
