Asolo 535. I spend a fair bit of time in the woods, so I don't mind spending money on good boots. These were $260 CAD, on clearance. My second pair, having worn a first pair out. A bit heavy, but excellent support and protection. Worth every penny.

Chelsea can barely string two passes together in the attacking end. Fully deserve to lose.

Chilwell gives the ball away brainlessly at one end, then gives away the penalty at the other. Woeful. VAR with the save!

"shit right down America's neck" Nice one.

Another comfortable win for Gerrard's Rangers, top of the group, avoiding the CL drop-outs. (Though it'd have me laughing my ass completely off if he managed to kick United out of Europe entirely.) Hard to judge where they are given the competition they're facing, but they work very hard and try to play football. Good for him.

True enough. It probably does mean quite a bit more money. And they were competing til late on. Just looked a little strange.

Shaktar playing for a draw and Europa, even though a goal and the win would have taken them through to the final sixteen. Doesn't make a lot of sense to me.

Kick it in the balls CD.

Missed the match due to a dentist's appointment. Watching a replay and schadenfreude apparently makes a fantastic anesthetic as I'm laughing like Chief Inspector Dreyfus.

I've run out of rep, and of superlatives as well. It's just so enjoyable to watch the best team in the world go about their business. Doesn't seem to matter who's missing, the replacements step up, and the regulars adjust to make up for any possible short-comings. Not the toughest run of matches possible, perhaps, but by my reckoning they've lost once since losing VVD (8-2-1), given up six goals in those eleven matches while scoring 22, given up 2 goals only once, and kept six clean sheets. Brilliant.

It's shite! (most of the time)

I'd love to see Bielsa with Arsenal's squad, assuming he could get them to buy into the hard work necessary to operate in his system. As it is, they look like Arsenal have looked since the tail end of Wenger's stint, half-assed, not bothered, soft and dull.

Sit back, hit on the counter, defend for 80 minutes. Another master class in the making.

Just ridiculous. Competitive match, good entertainment on a Sunday morning. Then the VAR kills it.

I only got one replay, but that's what it looked to me as well.

Bamford puts Leeds up one early vs Chelsea. Beautiful pass, but the keeper should have got there, I reckon. And now Werner's just taken a goal from Giroux and then put the rebound off the bar. He actually stops the ball from going in, then flicks it off the bar. Incredibly dumb.

A Phil Babb moment as Standard Liege retake the lead against Rangers.

So what are the underlying conditions that allow those 16 to 64 to jump the queue? Will there be people going to the doctor to get a jarg diagnosis of scrofula or bonespurs or somesuch so they can get the vaccine early?

That'll do psg, that'll do.

PSG still have the capacity to fuck this up.

Herrera on to increase the "dirty little prick" quotient a bit.

It's all kicking off. One set of twats is trying to out-twat the other set of twats.

If United ultimately go out, they drop to the Europa? Come on PSG, double figures.

Is that the fellow who just put one off the bar with his face giving RBL the lead? Kudos to him. I'd still be on the sidelines trying to recover. Crazy match, ends with an Leipzig victory.
