who had Arsenal at 50 points at the halfway point; 21 points ahead of Liverpool and Chelsea?

i did actually. 

way overdue with firing lampard.  everton's form is literally the worst i have ever seen from basically any team.  they played the other two teams that are getting relegated along with them over the last two weeks and lost a combined 4-1.  they are so brutal that it is comically ridiculous.  you have to try to be this bad.

He'd probably be better than Lampard. We're talking about a low bar here. 

The “In Soccer We Trust” guys, I think that it was Jimmy Conrad specifically, mentioned that there was talk of Marcelo Bielsa as Everton’s next manager. 

I don’t see that as being a good thing, unless they are looking to go down and then sell everyone off and start from scratch.

Bielsa is like Potter. His system needs very specific players to work. If Everton had the talent needed to play Biesla-Ball, they wouldn't be in the relegation zone.

in for a few k.

first order of business.  all out assault to sign mbappe and haaland to take over the attacking roles.

jeez, £45m?

Southampton is going down. We are getting outbid for "impact players" in the £15m-£20m range while foolishly thinking players in that range will make an impact to our position in the league.

Dear Chelsea, please remember the times you developed Juan Mata, Romelu Lukaku, Kevin de Bruyne, and Mo Salah then let them go star for other teams in the same damned league, kthanksPotterout...

Yup got 12m on a player leaving on a free in the summer.

And not a bad replacement

 

saw this elsewhere :

With the deal for Enzo Fernandez agreed by Chelsea, I think we should take a few minutes to commend Benfica for signing a player for €10m in the summer and selling him for €120m six months later.

You could have also said making a deal with Chelsea. 

I would say that it doesn't look like Nottingham Forest is going down this summer.

23:03 Keylor Navas [Paris St-Germain - Nottingham Forest] Loan

23:00 Jonjo Shelvey [Newcastle - Nottingham Forest] Undisclosed

22:57 Pedro Porro [Sporting Lisbon - Tottenham] Loan with obligation to buy for £40m

22:16 Albert Sambi Lokonga [Arsenal - Crystal Palace] Loan

21:51 Felipe [Atletico Madrid - Nottingham Forest] Undisclosed

Just Keylor Navas alone and they are almost guaranteed to stay up.

So Enzo got €1M signing bonus* to transfer to Benfica over the summer, then won The World Cup (and whatever bonus comes with that... at least $1M, I would think), and then he gets a €12M signing bonus* to go to Chelsea 6 months later. 

He has had one he'll of a 6 month period...

...except having to move to London from coastal Portugal.

*players get 10% of the transfer fee.

Southampton is going for it... ambitious window for Saints - £59.25m spent

Kamaldeen Sulemana - Left Forward (£22m, Rennes)

Paul Onuachu - Striker (£18.5m, Genk) - 6'-7"!!

Carlos Alcaraz - DM (£12m, Racing Club)

Mislav Orsic - AM (£6m, Dinamo Zagreb)

James Bree - RB (£750k, Luton Town)

 

New manager is a bit of a bellend. (He got it all wrong in the 2nd leg of the EFL cup semi final today)

Currently 20th, but only 2 points from 17th.

Further bonkers stat, Chelsea have spent more in this window than all Ligue 1, Bundesliga, Serie A and La Liga clubs combined.

dude, they are trying to sell the club before they get relegated and lose broadcast money.  they have no other revenue.  they are going to lose so much fucking money that it's going to make it impossible.

oh, and they're halfway through building a new stadium.  things really looking great for the toffees.

Craziest stat is their payroll decreased.

I swear to god, Manchester city really should have to subsidize us at this point. We have had more to do with their league titles the last few years than they have. 

this sport is dumb. 

Unlucky for Arsenal to get Everton post-Lampard but they really didn't deserve anything out of the game.  Tarkowski absolutely bullied Odegaard on the goal.  Epitomized the match

In their last eight games, Everton has taken 4 points of 1st and 2nd in the league. 

in the other six games, they have taken 0 points off of 20, 19, 18, 16, 14, 7.

Pretty hilarious goal by Leicester 

After a very nifty goal from Villa. 

Am left wondering why Sean Dyche was unemployed if he’s such an amazing manager. But he did get the win and they don’t look like a bottom 3 club at all. 

Liverpool really spicing up the relegation battle. 

And we have Everton next week. Oh my aching balls.
