Benni Mac- Thanks for making me feel like we won.
By: Jimmy |So, first off. And I’ll say it, I’ll say it once, and I don’t want to have to say it again. Tuncay’s goal was onside. But it was called off, and that kind of stuff happens all the time. End of.

League Cup vs Everton

Nonetheless I think we will win. I think playing Emo on the [...]
