  1. Henderson careless with the ball and it leads to a goal. Pretty annoying.
  2. Andy Robertson is the best left back in the world and I can't even think of another player who would be in the conversation.
  3. It's crazy how many clubs immediately copied it and now sing it as if it's their song. Aston Villa, Cardiff, apparently Slavia Prague...
  4. He's not wrong but "falsehood"? Call it what it is, you fucking pussy. Lies.
  5. If Gomez steps in and we don't miss a beat, great. He's looked less than stellar in his performances this year, though he's certainly a better player than he's shown. Progress is not always linear. The reason it would suck is that Gomez is the best backup for Trent, who's looked absolutely knackered of late. It's not ideal to have Gomez there, but unless we're gonna give Hoever minutes there, I don't think we have another option. Milner is a terrible RB, despite being just kinda bad at LB. It also means we're one step closer to Lovren playing and means Virgil gets no rest, aside from the Carabao Cup. Gomez has missed 97 games through injury in 4 (and change) seasons at the club; I'm not confident of his durability. Finally, Matip has legit looked like one of the best defenders in Europe and has finally shown what Klopp saw in him when we first signed him. He's great at stepping into the midfield and carrying the ball forward, and is a threat on set pieces. He's got 25 career goals; Gomez has yet to score in his career.
  6. But, as Jonathan Chait points out, it would be ridiculous to stop the President of the United States from using his platform to spread hate, fear, and violence.
  7. Matip has been unreal this year. Regardless of how good you might think Joe Gomez can be, if Matip misses any significant time it will suck.
  8. Front 3 weren't great today by any stretch. TAA had one of his worst games in memory. Robbo saved our asses on a couple occasions, including a sliding block that almost certainly would've been a goal. Sheffield battled like hell. I like their chances of staying up, especially if Mousset can find his legs. McBurnie looks like a guy who will give lesser CBs all they can handle. Three points and get on the bus. Five points clear.
  9. Yeah, that would've been bullshit. Pretty irritating that the club even tried that.
  10. Elliott looks like he should be the first attacking player off the bench at this point.
  11. -14 GD after 6 games is that bad?
  12. Crenshaw turning a blind eye to fellow vets is pathetic.
  13. The only other option would be Gomez, who's played there before. (Definitely under Rodgers and I think maybe some pre-season under Klopp?) Milner certainly offers more going forward than Gomez, who's not much of a crosser. As much as I'd like to see Robbo there, he could also use some rest. Dude plays 90 minutes almost every game.
  14. Maybe I'm an idiot, but I'm confused as to what "M4A Who Want It" means from a practical standpoint. My employer health insurance is okay, I think, but I am in no fucking way attached to it on any level. My employer pays $1,183/month of my premium, I pay $384/month. That's $14,207 and $4,600 annually, respectively. (My annual deductible is $5,600 with a $7,900 max out-of-pocket; both of those figures are for my family.) So in this hypothetical "M4A Who Want It" option, let's say I want Medicare. My employer is paying $14,207 less annually, and I'm paying $4,600 less annually in deductibles. Where does that premium money (i.e. the $14K paid by my employer) go? Into my paycheck? After all, that benefit is one of the reasons I took my job. And how much do my taxes go up by opting into Medicare for my family? What are my out of pocket costs? Sorry if these are dumb questions, and I don't want to derail the thread, but M4A makes sense to me. M4AWWI does not.
  15. Not an Arsenal fan but you're doing a great job living up to North London Aggy billing.
  16. Pretty wild to see Wolves in the relegation zone after 5 games but Europa League ravages a squad.
  17. You ain't kidding about the Wisconsin GOP. They are vile, anti-democratic fucks. It's a damn tragedy how much power they've managed to steal against the will of the people; Wisconsin used to be the Laboratory of Democracy.
  18. Not sure if this has gotten much pub outside of Wisconsin, but Scott Walker has been hitting the airwaves to promote the batshit crazy idea of his 25-year old son running for Sensenbrenner's seat. Like his father before him, Matt Walker has never had a real job, unless interning for Paul Ryan counts. It's a Republican stronghold so he'd probably win if he runs but merciful Christ...
