Premier League 25/1/25 - 26/1/25

Cash and Martinez clownshow, then saved by Konsa.

Game has become pretty open now. Could see either team scoring.
 
Can see signs of Potters influence on West Ham. Can see them going on to win this.
 
Fair play to West Ham to finding a goal from somewhere with Kudus and completely finished Danny Ings being their only actual fit forwards.
 
Adama Traore is so overrated. Offers no end product.
 
11 points of top 4. That’s bad that. But a decent win.
 
Clever. Saying it like that almost makes it sound like it's within reach. :lol:
Stranger things have happened, but you’re probably going to lose a few more games before the season is over.

11 points is almost 40 percent of our season total. It’s a huge gap to make up. Arsenal are more likely to win the double.
 
Good result for Brentford at Palace.
Did you by any chance watch this, or at least see the highlights?

I have thoughts about the re-taken penalty by Brentford. As Mbeumo was readying himself to take the penalty for a second time, right before he started his approach to the ball, Wissa, who was standing behind Mbeumo, puts both arms straight up in the air and starts walking away towards the sideline. And that had to be incredibly distracting to the Palace keeper! If you're focusing solely on the penalty taker, and right when he starts approaching the ball, someone in the same jersey as the taker puts both arms up and starts moving in the opposite direction! That would surely be distracting as hell!

And I haven't seen anyone mention it, but surely there should be rules about that. If there aren't any rules about it then I would have my players all stand around the edge of the box ya know jockeying to follow-up after the kick, and as soon as the ref blows the whistle to take the kick I would have everyone raise their arms up in the air at the same time. Or start jumping around and doing star jumps or something.

Anyone else notice it, or have any thoughts?
