Arsenal would have chosen their away kit for marketing reasons before hand
Weird feelings of football
- Thread starter fontaine
- Start date
Referees always award a free kick to Team A within seconds of waving away the appeals of Team B for an identical foul.
Whenever Ireland are at home on Sky Sports during an international break they always draw 1-1. Martin O'Neill is still their manager.
Aaron Ramsey has never scored for Wales. In fact I don't think he's ever played for Wales.
Despite making 25 appearances and being beaten up by Joey Barton, Ousmane Dabo never actually played for Manchester City.
Mario Balotelli definitely played for Fenerbahce or Galatasaray at some point between 2013 and 2017, even if reality says he didn't.
Manchester City always lose potential banana skin games in the Premier League whenever they're on BT Sport, but always navigate their way to a 3-1 win if they're faced with similar opposition and happen to be on Sky.
Bayern Munich always play Augsburg at home and always beat them 6-0. Robben always scores 2 of the goals, Lewandowski always scores a hat-trick.
Arsenal only ever play Crystal Palace, Bournemouth and Norwich at home.
Every single player deemed surplus to requirements by a top four side has been sold to Everton at some point in the past five years for considerably less than their market value.
Peter Schmeichel, Andy Cole and Dwight Yorke were only at Manchester United during the 99 treble-winning season. They were all signed in July 1998 and were all sold in June 1999.
Bournemouth haven't actually made any signings since being promoted in 2015. Every single player they currently have was part of their Championship-winning team four years ago. Also, every single member of their squad has had their name generated by a "typical English name" algorithm.

Everytime De Gea claims the ball, the camera zooms up close and he rushes to the edge of his box as if to start a counter. You are left looking at the close up of him thinking COME ON THEN and a counter attack never comes, and you will never know why due to the camera work!
Saul, Gabi and Koke are the same player.
Ousmane Dembele, Kingsley Coman and Thomas Lemar are the same player.
Tammy Abraham, Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Calum Hudson-Odoi are the same player.

All modern football pitches are sneakily 4G.
There are way more goals scored in La Liga than in Serie A
I would have agreed with this until weekend, we got on a counter from one of his throws which had zoomed in on him beforehand. Usually correct though.
There's always one in vogue surname player that everyone seems to have one of.
Currently Dembele.

When a big club takes a supposed 'key player' from a smaller club, the replacement for the smaller side is just as talented, if not better than the player that just departed. Often cheaper too
Oh manWhat?These are amazing
Maguire
La Liga games are only played at night, serie a games are only played in the evening.
McTominay never played with Carrick.
The manager of every African national team is an eccentric German (or Frenchman) who looks like he walked off of a Werner Herzog set.
A.C. Milan hasn't won a game in years.
England only face medium to lower European sides for World Cup and Euro qualifying. They also face said sides during the group stages as well and scrape by only to lose to decent side in the knockouts.

The England national team is always as follows:
•Goalkeeper with slightly arrogant demeanour often seen chewing gum.
•Pretty boy left back with questionable fashion sense.
•1 “hardman” hard brexit centre back who looks straight outta the edl, and 1 more continental, classy centre back.
•A hardworking right back, not the highest rated player in the team but “puts in a shift”, usually on the ugly side.
•2 black/lightskin pacey wingers, either are or were “wonderkids” with very high potential.
•1 very average centre mid who passes sideways a lot, usually at an upper mid table team or a squad player for a top side.
•1 “leader” centre mid, runs around a lot and is usually seen barking orders at his team.
•1 main striker, who has the whole hopes of the nation on their shoulder and is blamed for the eventual early exit.
•1 second choice striker, decent finisher but usually ends a season with around 10-15 goals, usually a squad player at a big team or the only goal threat for a bottom half one.

Accurate
I can remember every knock out game we had on the way to the CL in 1999 yet I had to YouTube who we beat on the way to our 2008 CL.
Sergio Aguero scores in every game he plays but never ends the season with the Golden Boot.
Another good one. Aguero scores 4 x hat-tricks per season but never seems to get even mentioned alongside Salah, Mane and Kane when people are discussing the top predators in the division...
He seems to underperform in Europe. Or maybe that’s just a weird feeling I have, I know he scored against Spurs last season even though they got knocked out (or was his goal ruled offsides).
Every time a manager is sacked and replaced, the clubs next game will always be a tv game.
Every other team passes the ball betters than us (or england)
Despite looking really neat and tidy technically, Mauro Camoranese never actually scored a goal in the professional game.
The Russian domestic league is a weird one-night-stand type playground whereby various Oligarchs purchase previously unknown or even non-existent teams, bankroll them to the title the following season then see them crash and burn in the CL.
When this happens, that team ceases to exist again and the Oligarch moves onto a new 'project', for which the same pattern follows to a tee.
Krasnodar
FC Rostov
Anzhi Makhachkala
Rubin Kazan

Shaw, Chilwell, Cole
Fair enoughShaw, Chilwell, Cole
I don’t know enough about these players fashion sense to judge.Can’t embed images as a mere lowly newb but one look at Chilwell’s Instagram answers that oneFair enough
Shaw also seems to have a thing for wearing jeggings.Ryan Giggs was 38 for the last 10 years of his playing career, Wayne Rooney has been 34 since 2013.
Well here is a weird feeling for a rival fan. Even though I have made ample fun of him in the past, this genuinely made me sad. :/ His meme-worthy expressions apart, I do respect that he gives his all on the field.

Lukaku hasn’t won a medal since 2010 but it feels like he’s won loads.
After Inter, Samuel eto'o played for a different club every 3 months including a forgotten about spell at United
It’s illegal to finish in the top 4 in the Netherlands without having some variation of a red and white home kit.
