Can't watch tonight but what did Toby do? I thought he had scored reading the thread? One hell of a player we have.
He did a Robana, a sombrero and a Cruyff turn all rolled in one defending as the last player

Agreed regardin lamela - he is growing with this team and his pressing is fantastic. However, I believe the lack of a real alternative striker option has seen son Hun out to dry a bit. I believe he'll come good for us and be a really useful member of the squad, but, he is not a centre forward and it is unfair to judge him on his performances out of position.

Agree. From what i seen this season , Son is a very talented player. He can beat players for fun and got an air of quality (proper quality) about him.

It's not pessimistic or defeatist to acknowledge that Dortmund are currently several levels above us.

We're on the right track with this excellent young squad, and things could still get very exciting in the PL, but we're at least a couple of years off being able to live with a team like this.

Arsenal would absolutely rip Dortmund, in terms of ability Arsenal are on a different planet to little Dortmund.

WTF are you on about?!

The same Arsenal who lost at home to Swansea and Watford, you mean?

Let me guess, those two teams would be walking the Bundi this season if they were in it, right?

Who for? Brentford? Big difference doing it in the championship than for us mate, he can't even get a game for WBA ATM

West brom are managed by the anti-football deity pulis: it's unfair to judge his suitability for the premier league on his inability to get game time for Albion.

Barca, Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Bayern, Juventus, Arsenal, Chelsea, Napoli and Benfica.
Well, aside from that being only 9 teams...and you included Arsenal, Chelsea, Napoli and Benfica, I guess you proved your point - you can almost name 10 teams?

and I thought this was a football forum talking football opinions not being called a nonce because someone doesn't agree with you?
I am not suggesting calling someone a nonce is appropriate I am merely suggesting that maybe the best way to deal with that is rising above it?

Failing that you know, insult their mum, that's taking the high ground IMO.

If only we could get some of the emotions on here on the pitch, we would win 9-1
