It's cruel, what a cruel way to go out but some of the South African pens were horrific. Up the Villa! (on pens)

Osimhen makes it 2, devastating counter. Osayi Samuel is RAPID. Possibly offside maybe? Nope, he's behind the ball but a VAR for a possible pen for South Africa....interesting!! Goal ruled out and South Africa awarded a pen!! Great decision.

The sharpness in footwork to change direction and pace to drive into the pen box before winning the pen was exceptional by Osimhen, he's like a more explosive Sturridge.

Up the Villa tonight. Really hope they knock the plastics out, would be pretty boring to face them 4 times in our last 4 (domestic) finals wouldn't it?

The priority this season should be to win every game and bringing home the quad. As Pep alluded to in one of his pressers, we're a team that ride off on momentum, it's easier to prepare yourself mentally for a game off the back of a win.....we do this well when we play every 3-4 days and I don't remember it being a problem when we played every game possible a few years ago. That said even in a dead rubber game like USG away, Klopp didn't just play Kelleher with 10 kids. We sent Gakpo, Ibou, Endo and Jones out there. No chance he goes weaker for the Saints, probably only have to look at the Norwich game, 1-2 inexperienced boys and that's it.

About a minute after 5pm, like usual.

f*** me, Spider Neil was here too?!? Anywhere that geezer hasn’t been.

Stop being such a cheapskate.

For Burnley in the additional members sale: Your queue number: 47792 Get the f*** in!!

Gonna feel like a 24 match losing run after we're through with them.

How dare you, Afcon comes before everything. Even the Prem.

Not watched any of the Asian cup but looking at the stats, looks like a game Jordan have absolutely peppered them on the counter & to great effect. Surprised more Arabs don't play in the Prem/across Europe. You'll have the Moroccan's and Algerian's but no Jordanian's....I get no one knows a thing about their domestic leagues but clearly in international tournaments they're clearly a capable group. It appears if they're not lucky enough for their parents to move them away as a child, they have next to no chance.

Referee and VAR team confirmed for this one. Tim Robinson - ref Stuart Atwell - VAR Marc Perry - AVAR

Are we all Watford fans tonight to make lives a little easier in a few weeks or are we not too bothered?

25 refs in the league. Taylor's officiated the most with 17, the new ref Sam Alisson with 1. Of those 25 refs we've only had 11 referee us this season. Taylor + Tierney looks like 7 times, Taylor with 4 and Tierney 3.

For me Emery would still be #1.

True but that takes effort, it's so much easier to react at face value.

Hey, I'm just going by what the tweet says. Not sure what fan keeps count of the WDL record they have with each ref.

Well that would be bloody fanf***ingtastic wouldn't it.

Was it an anomaly? When you factor how we played at Chelsea, Brighton (bar a 10 min spell end of first half), Wolves and Newcastle (first half), Palace (until the red card) and Luton I wouldn't say it was all that surprising considering Arsenal are a far superior side to all of the above.

One of, helps when you've played 3 of the bottom 4. 14 points dropped is still a lot, gonna need to push it closer to our home form if we want challenge all the way.

The away games all look rough. Brentford, Fulham, Villa, Utd, Everton. f***ing yikes. Gonna have to see a drastic turn in our away performances if we're to come through that with at least 11 points.

Well he's almost right. The probability we lose when Taylor is ref is 49%. The probability we lose when we have a bald ref in charge and it's Taylor, is 70%. Given over half the refs in the league are bald headed, the 57 in 81 losses really is nothing to be surprised about. Can we flip it and say what the probability of us losing under Tierney (of referee's with hair) is from the other 24 losses.

Least I captained KDB, anyway time to turn this s*** off.
