Re: Weekend Football

City host Burnley tonight. Burnley have scored one goal in their last 12 matches against City. City's last seven home games against Burnley, in reverse order - 6-0, 2-0, 5-0, 5-0, 5-0, 5-0, 4-1. I think I'll go home win. Test for Liverpool tonight - they should beat Chelsea, but the visitors have f...

Re: Weekend Football

Luton currently 4 up and pushing Everton into the bottom 3. What a weird result. If Luton stay up its arguably one of the greatest Premier League achievements ever. 3 wins in 16 for Brighton, injuries and Europe have taken a toll on their season Luton showing the merits of pragmatism and playing to...

Re: Weekend Football

Christ, Bournemouth really do stink the PL out don't they. Them, Palace and Forest are awful to watch. If Forest do go down, don't they have EFL charges to face re FFP also? Bournemouth one of the more watchable teams IMO On a very good run of form before today IIRC. After a slow start, Iraola is d...

Re: Weekend Football

Mental injury time at Brammal Lane 6 mins given on the board, currently in the 12 minute after 2 red cards and now the goalkeeper is being subbed off as a penalty is awarded Kudos to the referee and his team of officials for somehow managing to get all four big decisions in added time incorrect.

Re: The Manager Sack Race/Merry-go-Round

One of the greatest managers of all time, but he's arguably done very little for five or six years now. Wonder if he might go to China/Saudi. I can't remember which thread it was in but I said yesterday that I think he is a shoo-in for the Newcastle job this summer. I can see Eddie Howe being let g...

Re: Weekend Football

Glad City won, anyone but LFC winning the league You can imagine with City's run in now that they're going to pick up momentum and that usually only means one thing. March will play a huge bearing on the title race, City have United, Anfield, Brighton, Arsenal and Villa in a row. Four tough ones an...

Re: MATCHWATCH : Exeter City (h)

Thought the game was fairly entertaining. Exeter had some good ideas and played quite well first half but they made so many unforced errors it was unreal.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Exeter City (h)

Well, you can all enjoy me stuffing my face with pie if we still have a club and he does. I'm very burnt by coming round to Paunovic just in time for him to then become utter shite. He actually had a lot of bad luck at the end. We had the six point deduction and at Christmas lost ground as had to c...

Re: Weekend Football

What is your issue with anything that I've said? You think Jota's behaviour is acceptable? That is standard Liverpool. Didn't know you were a closet Liverpool supporter. Liverpool have certainly had the rub of the green with respect to refereeing decisions since the Spurs farce. Klopp, of course wo...

Re: Selles In

And 'we are doing well in spite of the manager' is tedious nonsense. He coaches them all week, picks the team, the formation, the tactics and manages things in-game. It didn't come off at the start of the season - perhaps in part owing to the relative inexperience of the team, but that team is now ...

Re: Weekend Football

McT again...you're the fcuking CDM I’d genuinely stick him up top at this point as he seems to have more of a goalscoring instinct that anyone else in your squad whilst simultaneously being very limited at what he’s supposed to be doing I guess he scored but Rashford was so poor up top.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Peterborough United (a)

Mentioned a few weeks ago how football can be a simple game at times and whilst Selles has a way to go yet, credit has to go to him for realising what he was doing wasn’t working and adjusting. Pushing Azeez from being one of the AM’s to an actual winger has worked well. Adds another dimension to hi...

Ince seems to be spending a fair bit of time on the bench at Watford Still prob proving a useful signing for them, bit of depth Ince never particularly convinced.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Oxford United (h)

Poor at both ends of the pitch. Struggle to see a strategy or plan to score goals and win games of football. If we’re going to try and play narrow through the thirds of the pitch, it needs to be done with urgency and tempo and not at the slow pedestrian speed we maintain. For as limited as Oxford we...

Pochettino has to be close to the exit door now. I predict Mr Mourinho will be Chelsea manager by the end of January. Can’t see it happening Mourinho may be plenty of things but one thing he isn’t is stupid and surely he can see that the young squad they’ve assembled won’t match what he needs, woul...

Re: Ex Players

A very good Fulham side though it has to be said. Couldn't quite believe Reading were 2-0 up at half time esp. as I thought looked a bit "iffy' at the back and so it proved, cue fairly uncommon loss of two goal lead as quick as possible on restart. If only Clarke hadn't have been such a total ...

Re: Ex Players

I can remember being so freaking excited when we signed Vydra. On paper, Vydra and Sa as a front two should easily have been enough for promotion, especially with the likes of an inform Blackman, McCleary, Norwood etc behind Fulham game completely derailed our season (or to be more precise, 10 minu...
