I had a feeling we were going to regret missing that

Lads need to calma

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Jorginho on at halftime maybe? (I am not currently watching while walking to my dorm lol)

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Definitely could help with leadership. The only one who isn't rattled is Øde. Even Rice is uncharacteristically jumpy.

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y

Rice being on a yellow this early is probably why

yknow, a draw away in Europe is not a bad result, but I can't help but feel bored especially after the thrill of the last two matches lol. Kinda expected this though.

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (4 replies)

Yeah but also no cushion room if things go tits up. Porto on the eye has been the better team.

raumdeuter@mastodon.social · 2 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Gotta look at these as 180 minute matches. We should have more reinforcements by then.

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Partey might be back so that's good. Hopefully Tomi or Zinny, but I thought Kiwi did fine

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (1 reply)

think it's mostly away in Europe tax, and we have had the possession.

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

they're still a great team and all, but i'm not sure we can't beat them.

sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y (1 reply)

My day is ruined.

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Same

sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

We look somewhat unsettled. Hopefully we figure it out soon.

sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

WAKE THE FUCK UP

sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

Honestly, even if we did score from a corner I would assume that the ref would see any of 5 fouls happening at the same time and call it off.

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

Yay corner. Yay.

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y (5 replies)

That ref really likes dealing cards

sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y (4 replies)

Think the pre-match coverage said he gives out 4 yellows per match on average. This match has been a bit chippy however, and the Porto players are definitely trying to play up their home advantage

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (3 replies)

They are defending quite well

sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y (2 replies)

On the other hand, we've looked off our game all night.

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y (1 reply)

We need to just take it home.

sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

I don't know if I agree. But I hope so, especially after that nonsense

sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

Havertz is good at getting the ball down, but doesn't seem to have the best judgment in quickly picking out passes.

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

Thank Jeebus for Wilo

sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

(Luton v Liverpool) what a coincidence, they sub Lokonga off and Liverpool immediately go ahead

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

Feel like you've gotta put Vieira on this game, who knows when the next time he'll get to play in this stadium.

hangonasecond@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

God if we win this and Luton somehow beat pool its going to be a very good day

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

Fuck you Pepe you dildo faced chihuahua

sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

We're also not pressing as hard as we were in the beginning, to my eye... are we looking to make a big tactical change in the second half maybe?

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

I'm just hoping Mikel is able to calm them down at the half

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

This broadcast is getting on my nerves with the glitching

e-ratic@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y

maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan

raumdeuter@mastodon.social · 3 pts · 2y (4 replies)

this went from being an ok result to a yeeesh result

sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (3 replies)

Honestly, it started out as a yeesh result. Attack completely nullified, wasteful set pieces, saved by divine intervention three times in two seconds, and chance after chance fluffed. Now it's a howler.

raumdeuter@mastodon.social · 1 pts · 2y

@sensiblepuffin new ref new players available, hope springs eternal

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

away days in Europe are never easy.

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 0 pts · 2y

We were totally not in it and they really frustrated us to no end.

hangonasecond@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

Luton fucked it. Two goals in about two seconds for Liverpool off a corner and a throw. All focus on this game now

e-ratic@kbin.social · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

literally thought the ball hit the back of the net and bounced back like it was a brick wall

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

God no shots on target 🤦🏻‍♀️

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Omg we were very lucky...the fuck we doing

sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

That's some divine fucking intervention. That was over 1 xG in like 2 seconds.

raumdeuter@mastodon.social · 3 pts · 2y

QE2 looking out for us from the great beyond?

Let's get one of those shots on target, eh, lads?

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

this second half has been so boring lol

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (2 replies)

finally sat down and can properly watch at my dorm, they look fierce.

sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

They are most definitely up for it. This is their chance for silverware.

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

tbf no team in europe is ever gonna be easy, either.

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

That looks a bit better

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

i see raya is back to terrifying me

More than that, haven't had a single shot yet

sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (3 replies)

That... might be a record of some kind

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y (2 replies)

what is?

sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

Oh, Rice's yellow, just how fast he got it

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Quickest yellow

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Martinelli needs to settle down

sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Good call from Raya

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Ok let's see what Jorgi can do

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Trossard what was that

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Ngl i would've preferred our neon zebra get up to confuse our opponents by blending into that pitch

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

At least only +1

sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

Rice, my man...

sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (5 replies)

Dang. Are you on university internet?

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (4 replies)

yep, the ones I am finding are freezing. Usually better than this though. And like, even at dorms i'm on uni internet anyway lool.

e-ratic@kbin.social · 1 pts · 2y (3 replies)

You tried connecting to a vpn? Or is the bandwidth in your uni just shit

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

turned on a vpn and i'm still having some issues, idk if it's that. found a stream that so far seems somewhat stable though.

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y (1 reply)

it's working fine now, think it might just be bad luck or smth.

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

granted, i have to move buildings in like 5 minutes lol

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

looking a bit better with these set pieces

sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

What a great Wednesday.

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

Oh fucking a..

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y (4 replies)

Wtf is this ballad they playing

sensiblepuffin@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y (3 replies)

Forget that, why does my stream keep splicing in random clips of Gunners singing? :D

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Weird shit on the high seas

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

The seas have been very turbulent lately

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

none of my streams are even working at all lol

Astrealix@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

I will say, this game is showing a bit of why Gabriel got dropped the start of the season when we tried this right side inverting thing.

MHPengwingz@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

Effing CBS stream stuttering
