SET PIECE FC NO MORE (we definitely still are)

We absolutely need to score again. They will hit us if we give them the chance.

[-] sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Well, I did mean vis a vis your personal problems. Hong Kong is a different story :(

Nothing is permanent, and there's always tomorrow. <3

If City win the league, everyone just says, "well, what are you going to do". If Arsenal win the league, that makes people sit up and pay attention. It's a legitimate win. No one will question whether we've engaged in dodgy financial manueuvers or whether a nation-state paid Havertz's dad 200k a week. They feel threatened because it'll be the first legitimate champion in years besides Liverpool.

That raises an interesting question though, why did Liverpool not receive that kind of treatment during the years they were going toe-to-toe with City?

I think we're both on the same page - I would love if there were similar federal programs for low-income people to get scooters/e-bikes just like we have for cell phones right now, since it's kind of required to get to work in most metropolitan areas and most cities don't have good transit options.

All I was saying before is that if they straight up never have more than $50 to their name, they're going to pay $7 a day as opposed to $30 a week, which would be more cost effective.

Something I think you may not be considering is availability of funds for lower-income folks - it's easy for us to say "why not just pay $70/month instead of paying $12/day", but... what if they literally don't have $70? What if they don't qualify for the payment plan because of bad/no credit? Let us not forget the story of Samuel Vimes and his 'Boots' Theory of Socio-economic Unfairness.

I'm somewhat conflicted about our next match - I want Rammers to have success but I would also like to pump 10 past Southampton to make up for the statistical anomaly v Leciester.

[-] sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

I thought it was more like a 4-4-2 personally.

TIME FOR MAJOR LEAGUE SOCCER

[-] sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

Glad Martinelli will still make those streaking runs, but why is Havertz peeling off to the right? Martinelli had absolutely no options there, even if he hadn't lost it

[-] sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

What a strike! Shame it was at the keeper. We've been doing that a lot recently, especially at Leicester. Need to start looking at them corners.

No notes. Row is green, London is red.

Not new but hopefully improved. I'm adding a Notes column to indicate things like penalties, own goals, and red cards to add some context to matches. As usual, feedback is always welcome!

I have a ton of hidden columns that tot up things like xG/A under/overperformance, etc. so maybe halfway through the season I'll open that up as well.

Fuck Kavanaugh. That is all.

I don't think I'll get over this season for a while... whichever way it ends up going.

Time for the Korean guy and Sp*rs to do us a favor

Turns out Shit is Shit, everywhere you go

  • added an indication for OG because I was sick of the xG values being somewhat misleading when they get scored. Fun stat: We've scored 5 and conceded 1 OG this season.

Fucking Villa and Fulham.

We were 6th in February. we could very easily be in 2nd place by the end of the season given how few points separate 2nd-5th.

"Are we ever going to look like we did in 2022-2023?" I said in December.

Now somehow we look even better.
