That Kane penalty was spectacularly shit, divot or no divot.

Although clearly given Spurs were winning when he missed it, and they then got 2 more, it ultimately didn't matter.

Swansea have sacked Bob Bradley after only something like 80 days in charge.

85 days, in the end. For some reason I thought it was closer to the Allardyce reign in numbers.

So weird how Swansea did well to get to 8th in 2014/15 and have made seemingly nothing but bad decisions since.

Should never have sacked Guidolin and should never even have considered Bradley.

Will be delicious seeing the Yanks destroying their own investment through their own incompetence with Swansea going down.

Why not consider Bradley?

And are the 'Americans' even doing anything differently to what Jenkins has been doing for years?

They sold Gomis / Ayew / Williams in the summer seems to be the big problem? - but they've been doing that for years - they're luck was going to run out eventually.

Also think Monk and then last year Guidolin steered them to much higher positions than they actually 'deserved'

Easier to blame the stupid yanks though isn't it, because its only Americans who manage to ruin clubs, English owners never do it.

Every game you think they can't get any worse and the next one just tries to prove that wrong.

Kane is having a field day against Watford so far, 2 goals and an assist (well of sorts

). Doesn't get the credit he deserves it seems like, same amount of goals in 100 games as Henry had.

Finally Liverpool dropped points! Hopefully we beat Spurs on Wednesday! We have Liverpool and Arsenal back to back soon so we need to come as happy as we can!

Makes the Liverpool vs. Chelsea game a lot more crucial if Chelsea win against Spurs on Wednesday. Tekkers to Vito Mannone after a nightmare show against Burnley.

Genuinely thought for a second Jones got sent off... might not have been paying attention properly but very full throttle challenge from the pair of them. Not convinced it was a red.

Also that double one with the super Randolph save and Lingard hitting the post from 2 yards - how the fuck did that stay out?

Jones goes in hard with one foot and his other tucked behind him and Feghouli jumps in late with his two feet in front of him.

Neither are great tackles and worse than Feghouli's have gone unpunished recently (Hi Rojo) but its a red card. I'm not really sure why its controversial.

I tell you what though, for all the shit decisions it is quite nice that apparently the offside rule no longer applies to us.

Mike Dean is absolutely dreadful.

Thankfully the decisions went our way and Mourinho got the substitutions right, Rashford making an instant impact.

It was very strange wasn't it?

I do wonder if he's the bottle for the Premier League tbh. It won't be like Spain or Germany when it's a two horse race!

He'll fuck off to manage Brazil then retire once he's won the CL with City in the next 3/4 years
