April 9, 20187 yr Soton's CBs suck.. i think about all the good to great ones we have had.. Lovren, Fonte, Alderweireld, Van Dijk. Replacing with cheaper unknown players is always risky, and it has not worked out. Hoedt, Yoshida, and Stephens are all Championship quality CBs, which unironically is where we will be playing next season. They ought to fit right in. I miss the team we once had. we have given away 9 goals in the last 3 PL matches. compare that to Liverpool who have give away only 9 goals in the last 10 PL matches! I'd gladly give you back Lallana and Lovren to rebuild from the ashes in the Championship.
April 10, 20187 yr I think we broke Lallana. But Lovren was broke when he got here.Lallana was never what people hoped he'd be and he was already on the run down overrated English path when he arrived. He just fulfilled his destiny at Liverpool.
April 11, 20187 yr This is so bad. Kane should be embarrassed. https://www.premierleague.com/news/661917?sf186748409=1&utm_source=t.co&utm_medium=referral Harry Kane has been awarded Tottenham Hotspur’s second goal in their 2-1 win against Stoke City on Saturday, after the club and player successfully appealed to the Premier League’s Goal Accreditation Appeals Panel. The goal had originally been awarded on the day to Christian Eriksen, but after taking the player’s testimony into account and reviewing the match footage, a three-person panel agreed that the final touch on the ball belonged to Kane.
April 11, 20187 yr That's fucking stupid on 2 fronts: A. Who the fuck was on that panel? Kane's Mom, Dad and girlfriend? Because I can't see how anyone outside of those 3 and Kane himself would think that's his goal. B. Kane should be embarrassed. Who cares who scored? That should be Eriksen's goal.
April 12, 20187 yr So Conte, if Tuchel is to PSG, really is running out of options for next year. I'm hoping he sticks, because the alternatives aren't that appealing.
April 12, 20187 yr The rate at which PSG, Chelsea, United, Madrid, City, Bayern and Barca are firing coaches is going to force some recycling.
April 14, 20187 yr nut cutting time in the prem today. soton at home going 2 up then conceeding 3 to chelsea (first time for them to come back down 2 since 2002 or 2003), with palace about to kick off, could be a 6-point swing swansea and hud are about to kickoff at home; last week there was no movement at the bottom, today could be the same, or it could be drama day.
April 14, 20187 yr Chelsea with the kill shot. Did I mention the Southampton's CBs suck? Last Four games: 0-3, 0-3, 2-3, 2-3

April 14, 20187 yr Palace-Brighton is very entertaining. I turned it on just as it became 2-1 and it's 3-2 now. Goals galore.
April 14, 20187 yr Palace wins, Hudderfield wins, Swansea Draws.. it's all over.. WBrom, Stoke and Southampton going down.
April 14, 20187 yr Yep. The relegation race is over. I can't see any of the bottom 3 getting enough points to get out of their holes.
April 14, 20187 yr the prem went from 22 to 20 teams in the 95-96 campaign and beginning with that season the average number of points for 17th has been 36.6 which puts watford .4 away from statistical safety. but not even bournemouth and newcastle are confirmed out. in 03 ham were relegated in 18th on 42. we won't know the probable safety mark until 35 are played. palace are not out yet. schedule is easy but only 4 remaining. swansea are not out yet. next 2 are @city and chelsea, then @safebournemouth, closing hosting potentially rabid desperate soton and stoke. ham/stoke on monday is massive... hammers could get out, or stoke could create chaos by dragging ham back in to the pit of misery. then you've got First-Ami david wagner and huddersfield who with a -27 have 2nd worst differential of everyone at risk and with only 4 remaining - they host bored and done Fighting Rooneys before finishing @city @ chelsea and aresne. anything less than 3 against everton and they could easily fall out if someone else puts on a great escape. and albion are not out yet: spurs @burnley united @city @ pool is a bitch. anything less than 3 @burnley (surging on arsene's ass now only 2 back) could see them in same spot as hudd.... the static and immobile target for someone else going Full Steve McQueen. gd could be the difference on the last day and here's the current table: albion -15 ham -18 palace -18 swansea -19 soton -20 hudd -27 stoke -33
April 14, 20187 yr Congratulations to the Wolverhampton Wolves on their promotion. Fulham are close to getting the 2nd spot. 1 point down to Cardiff City.
April 14, 20187 yr Fulham had a brutal draw today. Gave up the tying goal in the 94th minute. Cardiff up a point but also have a game in hand.

April 14, 20187 yr Sterling missed!?!?!?!?!?! I didn't see the block. But he got it there. Edited April 14, 20187 yr by Captain Ron
April 14, 20187 yr So with this win, City is on the verge. They are 16 clear of United who have 18 left. If United doesn't lose tomorrow, City can wrap this up at home against Swansea. Edited April 14, 20187 yr by Captain Ron
April 14, 20187 yr I would kill for that kind of quality back on our club! owner would not pay their high wages though.£25M for both and it’s on
April 14, 20187 yr we used to have a shepard and a malamute. we are wolf people. the wife has decided we are supporting wolves despite besties who have been pool and leicester supporters for life. and i'm still very partial to fulham from the mcbride/lewis/dempsey era.

There’s also the part where Wolves are owned by a Chinese conglomerate and have a shady relationship with a super agent (Mendes). Fuck them.
April 15, 20187 yr There’s also the part where Wolves are owned by a Chinese conglomerateAs if this matters. I mean look at Chelsea. They are owned by a Russian Gangster. Look at Arsenal. They are owned by an American Pussy.
April 15, 20187 yr No VAR:https://www.theguardian.com/football/2018/apr/13/premier-league-video-assistant-referees-var-vote-against
April 15, 20187 yr Wolverhampton play an entertaining brand of football. I'm looking forward to seeing them back in the Prem. Too bad Robert Plant doesn't live in Austin anymore, because you would probably be able to catch him at a pub watching a Wolves match, since that's his team. He used to frequent Fado to watch Wolves and rugby matches.

If United doesn't lose tomorrow, City can wrap this up at home against Swansea. City will be probably be champions next Sunday. We're on 87 and United's max possible points is 89. So we have to take 1 point or less across the final 5 games while United win out to have lost the title. If City only get 2 points and United win out they have to make up a 30 point goal differential, which would be practically impossible. Though I'm not going to celebrate until it's official. Already got an egg on my face from celebrating the title at halftime of the derby.

April 15, 20187 yr There are bad calls, but I really don't think VAR brings enough that it offsets the crap it adds to the sport. Worse it suffers from the same issues that replay suffers from in every other sport, once you break down plays at this miniscule level the question of what really happens.
