2017/18 Premier League & General Football Discussion

[Crazy Taylor]

Celtic Beat Rangers 5-0, poor finishing and a good goalie display stopped double digits.

Hopefully the rumors are true and Stevie G gets the Rangers job. It would effectively secure next year's title more than normal.

A long as he "does not let it slip" dirty kopite.

Edit.

FC Twente, Champions in 2010, are relegated.

TO THE RESCUE!!

 

[MUSC4EVER]

City continued their Champions tour by beating West Ham 1-4 (they get the trophy next weekend)

United 1-0 up v Arsenal, Pogba just scored.

Gazza got booked for that.

Steve "Ten Past Nine" McClaren.

Man United 2-1 Arsenal

Pogba with the first, Mkhitaryan had to come back to Old Trafford and score for the equaliser, Fellaini came off the bench to get a 92nd minute winner.

 

[Phoenix]

Sloppy but a win for United against Arsenal.

2-1 the end result.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Arsenal still haven't picked up a point away from home in 2018....

Liverpool assistant manager Zeljko Buvac has taken a leave of absence for personal reasons and wont be back for the foreseeable future, he has been with Klopp since the Dortmund days so replacing him might be tricky for Liverpool.

Even longer than that. Both were team mates at Mainz, then in maagement at Mainz.

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Spurs beat Watford 2-0, Alli and Kane with the goals, wasn't a great game to watch...

He's now the bookies' favourite to replace Arsene Wenger. I suppose that technically counts as personal reasons.

 

[Famine]

If Arsenal win the Europa League (although currently they're going out on away goals (edited for Costa) in the semi-final) and Liverpool win the Champions League, the team in fourth - currently Spurs - will not qualify for the Champions League next season.

 

[Dennisch]

So, UEFA has set a maximum of 5 Champions per country per tournament?

Yes, only a quarter of the teams in your entire top league can be champions at the same time.

 

[Dennisch]

Yes, only a quarter of the teams in your entire top league can be champions at the same time.

Man, what a stupid decision.

Watching a Gerrard interview is like playing a game of 'guess the erm'.

Brighton v Man United

Am I even surprised......

 

[MUSC4EVER]

Am I even surprised......

I'm not, had a feeling something like that was going to happen, shocking.

 

[m8h3r]

It always feels like we are going to drop silly points after beating a rival team.

R.I.P. "Can you do it on a Cold Wednesday night at Stoke"

R.I.P. "Can you do it on a Cold Wednesday night at Stoke"

Clearly Stoke couldn't.

 

[m8h3r]

What is going on with this West Brom team. If the game between Southampton and Swansea finishes in a draw, then they both lose their final games against Man City and Stoke respectively it leaves West Brom able to survive by beating Crystal Palace.

Looking at their fixture list a month ago consisting of fixtures against Man Utd, Liverpool and Tottenham I said they were down already, they got 7 points from those 3 games. I hate to say it but I think with this end of season form they deserve to pinch it. Rather see Swansea stay up personally however.

 

[DK]

Ugh, I'm kicking myself for not throwing something on West Brom surviving, even when it fell to 100/1.

 

[Pebb]

Sure the referee should of done better at keeping track of time once stoppage time arrived. However some of the Southampton players and board have to take a bit of the blame on how this season has gone.

Horrible stuff. Although i did like him as utd manager, I hope he gets through this, as I am a survivor of brain injuries in the past.
