Well, he does end legs.

Is it Sandro that is Spurs hatchet man? I forget

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Yeah but I think in his career he's injured pretty much no-one but has been injured about 100 times himself so he's a bit rubbish at that role.

[Matt]

I'd like to have seen how these modern footballers would cope with playing in the 70s

[MDK]

Could Messi do it on a rainy night in Barnet with a dodgy Barnet?

[stokeriño]

I am now imagining a footballing duel between Messi and Chopper Harris, wherein on their first meeting Messi would skip past him with his light twinketoes, and on their second meeting he would get his career ended by a studded dropkick to the knee because, you know, Chopper dislikes looking silly.

(At which point the referee pulls out a yellow card if feeling generous.)

[Liam]

Calls him a naughty boy and gives him a final warning before the yellow card.

[stokeriño]

Unless it's the referee from the 1970 FA Cup Final, who would look down at Messi writhing in agony and think "Is his head still attached to his spine? Yes? Play on."

[SeanDMan]

"get up Messi you diving cunt, your other leg is completely unbroken."

[Liam]

1982 Euro Championship referee wouldn't even give a foul. What's a few lost teeth and some damaged vertebrae?

[Matt]

"get up Messi you diving cunt, your other leg is completely unbroken."

I wouldn't be surprised if the referee from the 1970 cup final did something like that. I'm sure Graham Poll or someone rewatched the game and said that in the modern game there'd have been 5 reds and 20 yellows or something ridiculous.... The referee booked one player all game.

[Liam]

In Graham Poll's world, twenty yellows amount to about 5 reds.

I hope Poll doesn't have an account here, ZING~!

It's different though because Suarez is a top top player and plays for the best team in the world whereas Tottenham are a boring team supported by boring people like David Baddiel

[Lineker]

tbf David Baddiel is a gigantic cunt.

THIS!

Also I thought brenchill was actually doing a "leg end" joke.

[Crybaby Bunting]

tbf David Baddiel is a gigantic cunt.

I like to wonder what he actually did for a living, because it seemed like he's been living entirely off Three Lions for nearly twenty years.

Every now and again he'll be in a TV special talking about his Jewish roots as if anybody actually gives a shit, and then when he's been out of the papers for a while he'll speak on behalf of every Spurs supporter ever on whether something is offensive or not.

edit: wait, he supports CHELSEA? What?
