      ​@@Leevzz_Lee Pretenders. It's not the Carabou cup, that's a sponsor. It's the league Cup. The winner of which gets a place in the Uefa league. Reading this comment section gives me a headache. The amount of foreign fans trying to be either smart or knowledgeable on the English game is proof the game is dead. Just stick to your national sport! Why have you ruined our game? The money, fake fans with merchandise, social media! Just f off. You have no idea what it means to be a supporter of a club. It's literally born into you. You don't get a choice of who you want to support. Through thick and thin. Fairy pretenders dancing around until the next club.

      Well he said he could run the 100m in 11 seconds and that is without training! For sure he is a sub 10s runner with a little training. So he is not even fast for football, his speed is like that of a genuine sprinter.

    Arsenal FC have had the biggest number of humiliating defeats for a "big team" in the history of English football imo. But when this happened, it took it to the next level.
