I like Emou. The references keep changing, so he's not flogging the same joke entirely.
Not his best strip overall, but it's a massive over-exaggeration to say he's become a parody of himself when his stuff has been top notch for ages, often getting better week by week. His work is excellent overall.

Obviously considering the subject there are very few jokes, but beautifully done all the same.

That was brilliant. Also the king in the car park bit was very good!
Squires is great.
The shirt sponsor is very good. "Go on, Gamble." with "BET" on the sleeve.

Very nicely done.

Getting loads of those recently. Has Caf changed something?
I think it's an issue with the Guardian specifically. Annoying

He's great but I hate how we give the fecker so much material to work with!

Sarri is almost - almost! - as horrible here as in that photo where he chews on the cigarette butt.https://www.theguardian.com/footbal...squires-on-the-weekend-premier-league-derbies

Scott McTominay kneeling behind things to no discernable effect though

Peaky Gunnersaurus and that last panel!
The On The Buses reference
That was a cringy horrible program that seemed dated the moment it aired.

What's the kneeling thing?
oh, why did he do that?
"A rivalry so fierce that the return fixture may have to be moved to Buenos Aires"
I'm trying to see a reason behind it.
Maybe if the Soton player went for a low ground effort,and our players naturally jump,then you're leaving DDG rather flat footed so having McTom there blocking sounds sort of understandable..I guess ?
But apart from that long-winded theory I haven't a clue.
No discernible effect.... that could be said about any McTominay performance.
It had no discernable effect though. As you may have guessed.
Brozovic did it v Barca (few other examples too). Presumably we copied it as we're so open to new ideas.....
I would expect that to be the cause. Messi, Ronaldinho, Ronaldo etc have all scored quite a few free kicks where they roll it under a jumping wall of players.
Wait wait, is it actually legal for a player to lay down flat behind the wall?Brozovic did it v Barca (few other examples too). Presumably we copied it as we're so open to new ideas.....
Why wouldn't it be legal ?
I never asked myself that question before. It just seems like something that would be banned.
Not sure why ?
He's behind the wall so more than ten yards. Nothing in rules about lying down.
Odd, but ok
It isn't why should it be? Besides, he didn't just lie there, he dived in at the last second. It was actually a brilliant play, most likely saved a goal as Suarez did go below the wall and the ball hit brozovic
It had no discernable effect though. As you may have guessed.
If any image summed up McTominay as a player, it's this one.
He somehow managed to adapt it nevertheless: https://www.theguardian.com/footbal...ster-united-christmas-wishlists-and-free-beer
