if the NBA worked the way EPL soccer does then the Lakers would be screwed every time they traveled to Sacramento. the famous team with the sexy play style from the glitzy city, on the road against the low budget, hard hat and lunch pail scrappers. you'd see sacramento throwing elbows, shoving people, wrapping their arms around guys in the paint with no call. Magic, and Kobe, and LeBron, et al, just getting shitted on by officials, can't get a call to save their lives. because that's how the EPL works. completely fucking stupid.

this one guy in particular intentionally elbowed gabriel jesus, was constantly wrapping his arms around Jesus, and then did this:

and then finally got his first foul  of the match with three minutes to go when he did this:

Well. He has a resume.

Aston Villa is delighted to announce the appointment of Unai Emery as the club’s new Head Coach.

Unai joins from Villarreal, whom he led to Europa League success by beating Manchester United in the final in 2021 as well as the semi-finals of the Champions League last season.

A highly experienced top level coach who has managed over 900 games, Unai has also previously managed in the Premier League during a spell with Arsenal, leading the Gunners to a Europa League final.

He has also enjoyed notable success at Sevilla and at Paris Saint Germain. In Seville, he won three successive Europa League titles between 2013 and 2016 before going on to lift a Ligue 1 championship in France as well as two French Cups, two French League Cups and two Trophée des Champions.

Unai will take over from November 1st after his work permit formalities are completed.

It's a good hire.  He's good at taking teams who are viewed as having less talent and getting them to play better than expectations.

no joke, one of his biggest issues at arsenal was that his players could not understand him with his thick accent and broken english. i really hope for y'all's sake that he's improved in that department.

These. Emery’s a damn good manager and, unless Villa have a culture problem in the locker room like those post-Wenger Arsenal sides did, will turn them around. Great hire.

Cancelo blatant foul/red card in the box allows Fulham to tie City 1-1 in 29th minute. City will be shorthanded for 60 minutes

Correct call, but I love how the Fulham player triple rolled holding his ankle after being shoulder checked.
