Gallagher tonight (27th December) as Chelsea's captain showing everything that we don't...desire, energy, commitment and quality - battling for the badge. Still enjoy watching him play.
Palace only 4 points above the drop. It won't happen but we can dream right?
Unfortunately we need a miracle from Burnley or Luton but neither have the spending power to refresh the squad enough to make the jump up. Palarse will sign a couple of players, pick up a few points against the likes of Manchester and Arsenal when you least expect it, and will finish lower midtable, again
Sadly correct.
But in these troubled times for us, let's cross our fingers and hope!
Jesus. The Chelsea bellends made hard work of that. I can’t see how Nicolas Jackson was worth £35,000, let alone £35 million. He’s actively costing them points by constantly either missing glaring opportunities or being unforgivably offside. Long may it continue. 😎

and all sorts of rumours that he'll be sold to Spurs next month .. so having spent scores of millions on foreign 'prospects' (a k a flash rubbish) Chelsea might sell their best and only midfielder as well as their captain and hardest working player .. and we think we have misguided managers/owners .. (unless Gallagher is plotting a move of course)
Cooper or Potter to the Nigel's? Can't see Roy staying much longer after last night.
They have generally always done frustratingly well with their mid season management changes. I can only hope this is the season they get it completely wrong.

Annoyingly I agree , Potter or Cooper would be unfortunately really good appointments
Billion pound sport but can't handle goal-line technology across the entire line.
Madness.
But goal line technology is only to determine if the ball is over the line between the posts or not - ie if it's a goal.
It's not there to determine if the ball goes out for a throw or goal kick / corner.
But it is the same line, just stretched out further.
It's not difficult to simply use that technology for every outside line of the pitch.
They manage perfectly fine in both Cricket and Tennis to do the same.
So you want to use VAR to determine if the ball is in or out of play all across the pitch?
Why? Don't you think there are enough stoppages and delays as it is already?
Do you not understand how goal-line technology works?
It's a simple beep on the ref's watch. Stick a chip in the ball and the ref would know exactly when a ball has gone out of play and where instantly.
They were already looking at the ball going out of play using VAR anyway (and couldn't see anything even after taking several minutes) so I really don't know what you're on about.

But the goal line technology works because the tech is in the posts, so it can determine if it crossed the line within those confines.
You'd need to erect posts along all the sidelines and touchlines to hold the tech to work out if it was in or out.
Tennis is a far smaller court and cricket is used in a tiny area, an entire football pitch is a lot to cover

Patronising ****. I get it. You want a technological "solution" for everything. Particularly if a decision goes against Arsenal.
Meanwhile the game we all grew up loving is being destroyed by fcuking idiots.
Don't bother replying. I wont be engaging with you any longer.

Or just have a chip in the ball and measure the centre of the ball going outside of the pitch for more than half the ball's width. It's really not that difficult.
You have technology that maps a player's movement across the entire pitch, but you can't do the same with the ball?

And what determines where the pitch lines are cleverclogs? It's in the goalposts currently, or is that something you can't comprehend? Again, the pitch is too big an area for the technology to be utilised currently.
Anyway, as an Arsenal fan, what's the excuse for the second goal? Ex players shouldn't be allowed to play against you?
I don’t see an issue if goal line technology can be extended to the corner flag if possible. As it’s as instantaneous as you can get it’s not VAR. That should be binned it’s fucking awful.

Yawn, yet again missing the point entirely.
You don't need a camera when you have a chip. It is being tracked and the lines can just be measured and mapped out before the game even takes place.
Failing that actually use the corner flags for something other than decoration.

Actually only 3 points.

And I imagine they'd only do a check if a goal was scored within a phase.
