Love Kos, but He is not vocal or involved in situations enough for a captain
Which is why Mustafi is the perfect foil for him. The German is not shy about berating his teammates (including the likes of Sanchez and Prince Özil ;)), nor is he afraid of using the refs as prop dummies and getting away with it! :lol:

Kostafi really is the perfect combo!

I agree boss partnership but you know if Mustafi had the armband the ref would know about it, so He would!

Kos is a warrior in His individual role but too passive for a captain, He should be demanding more vocally from the ref or even His team mates, that is the role of the captain.

Even Gabriel has zero English is more vocal and offers more support in questionable situations than KoS, Kos just shrugs and moves on!

Southampton at home, Burnley away, Ludogorets away, United Away, Bournemouth Away, Preston away, and now Burnley at home. What is going on this season, these guys don't take no for an answer! :drool:

The one game I miss this season and it's the nail biter to end all previous ones. Credit to the team for fighting to the last minute and a pox on both John Moss & Anthony Taylor.

Here's hoping the FA let Arsène off with a slap on the wrist to send Mourinho into a conniption :lol:.

On a final note, is it too late to stuff Xhaka in a crate with a note that says "Care of Borussia Monchengladbach" or some similar deranged team that tolerates such wanton idiocy?

The only thing Jon Moss got wrong was not clamping down on Burnley's time wasting. It started from minute one and should have been stopped. I don't know what else you can complain about. That was about as good a performance from an overweight plodder as you're going to get.

We did our best to drop points today, but we still scraped a win... against Burnley.

We need to do better.

Putting away our most recent bogey team, who happen to be our next quarry, sounds like a nice start.

The FA need to be even handed & caution Moss & Taylor as well.

Maybe if Arsène manages to come off as apologetic & somewhat victimized, we could then have them shift their gaze to Mike Dean that insufferable cretin :lol:

Hope Moss is stabbed on the way home to be completely honest

Whoever it is has their work cutout for them, what with the mammoth levels of subcutaneous fat they'll have to dig through :lol:

Say what you will about him, but the man oozes class. Doubt many other managers would own up to it & merely hide behind a "moment of passion" sort of appeal.

I thought the decisions were mostly fair. But here's what I'll complain about:
  • Mustafi should have gotten a penalty early in the second half. Stone-cold foul inside the box.
  • How many high elbows were Burnley getting away with? And a tackle from behind in the first half. There was enough malice in these challenges to get a booking for me but the cards stayed in his pocket.
  • This one is controversial, but I think Xhaka's red was a touch soft. Yes if you go by exactly what is written it is a red card, but the decision wasn't really in the spirit of the rules. I think because Xhaka shared his thoughts with the ref about an uncalled foul on him earlier, the ref was extra harsh.
