Is it just me or does Luton play on a particularly tiny pitch?

That link says premier League allows 90-120m long and 45 - 90m wide. They're not trying hard enough. Seems like some promoted clubs would try to get an edge

Without watching and knowing if there was a ton of stall tactics, Arsenal scoring 7 minutes into the 6 minute extra time is just lovely.

Erling should have been more pissed about those sitters he rocketed into the stands.

Fantastic until he insulted Men’s soccer in the US. I had a glimmer of hope he was paying respect to the future of USMNT, but no, he was talking about Messi.

Depending on how you choose to define primary position, City don't have a true midfielder in their starting XI. Wish I could give Kalvin Phillips a hug.

I think he knows we can’t afford to spend like the Chelseas and Arsenals of the league.

i've never rooted for a soccer team in my life that has played a game like that today. so that's what it's like - fk that was fun. Could (should) have had more than 1 but 1 was enough.

Yeah, this is the opposite of Tottenham. Villa absolutely deserved all 3 today and the worst I’ve seen City look in a really long time.

That makes sense to you and me. But, to an athlete in his prime who is able to command a big salary... It will probably be hard for him to walk away if they clear him to play again fairly soon.

Man Utd playing with a retro red devil shirt badge, except the keeper who has the usual badge. Never seen two different badges on a team before. Guess the budget didn't run that far.
