Tiny Penis has to be really upset tonight scoring three times in one game. He'll be putting the players through some extra work on the training ground tomorrow to put an end to that.

Leeds lost this match when their striker ran out wearing tights.

Leeds have a player - their centre forward - kitted out and playing in full track suit.  It/he looks really weird, like a pitch invader.  Is this allowed?

My mistake. It’s actually the Phantom Flan Flinger.

But you wouldn't want to tackle anything in tights on a cold night would you?

Traore was shit. If i wanted to see Usian Bolt with a football then i'd get our scouts to hang round the England 100 metre sprinting team. You don't get dumped by Barcelona if you're any good,

My issue was more that he looked like the most talented footballer that had never actually played an game of organsied, 11 a side football before.

And the view that he could be taught the basics with coaching falls down when you consider he'd spent his youth at Barcelona. If he can't learn how to play within a team with them, how are the likes of Tim Sherwood, Fucking Eric Black or Tiny Penis?

Give me Albert all day long and twice on Tuesday.

yep, i understood why some liked him because who doesn't like a player 5 yards faster than any of the opposition, but there's 50 year old footballers who can still pass straight to a teammates feet but you wouldn't play them because they can't run anymore. So why have a speed merchant who can't pass or knows where the ball is half the time? Barcelona put that buy-back clause into his contract because of his pace but they weren't ever gonna buy him back till he learnt to pass.

I've just seen the incidents from the Spurs v Rochdale game. Apart from the ref using VAR for what seemed to me to be pretty clear incidents, since when was a stuttered penalty run up punished with the penalty being ruled out and a yellow card being given? I thought most refs overlooked the run up these days and the  worst case scenario was a retake.

Some superlative pointing from Ashley Westwood today.

As an aside, there is little to no atmosphere in this game at all!

Looks a decent player the number 2 for Burnley. Delighted to see Everton looking a shambles under Allardyce.

Post match punditry - Jamie Redknapp usually looks one of the more urbane and sophisticated commenters, but Thiere Henri is currently making him look like Big Sam! Henri has managed to pronounce Burnley in a way that makes it sound like an upmarket Milan.

Stuttered run IMO is cheating and should not be allowed.
