Highlights and goals of week 14



Go Saints

Liverpool rode their luck a few times against Everton. We had chances but didn't cash in until the 90th Min to win 1-0

Man City are going to be very hard to beat for the championship. Maybe our only chance is if they lose top players to injury, but having said that their depth looks really good.

Yeah it’s almost impossible. Best chance is they get complacent and drop points with Christmas and champions league distractions.

Looks like UEFA are actually going to ping Man City for major breaches of FFP. A 2 year ban from European competition will knock them around a bit. Likely to bring them back to the pack in EPL as well.

About bloody time too!
The cheeky upstarts have been flaunting the FFP for some time now
And finally UEFA getting serious on this scourge on the game!

Plus the bastards are threatening to dominate for quite a while
Easily the best team in it this year!
And I'm sure I speak for the rest of the comp ( even Liverpool fans )
When I say that this is possibly the best news for any fans
Of the EPL outside of the usually half empty Etihad stadium!

How will it bring them back in EPL. If anything they would be more rested

They will lose players, as playing Champions League is considered the pinnacle. I suspect Pep (manager) would pull the pin as well.

They will stay for the $$$$$$

Liverpool come back from 1-0 down against the hackers from Burnley to win 3-1. Manu drew with Arsenal 2-2 at home. Will Mou make it through the season?
Chelsea lost to Wolves & Spurs back in the top 4 with a 3-1 win.

Get better soon BT 66.

Liverpool and Man City have played 13 matches.

Liverpool has drawn 3 and won the rest. Drew against Man City at home and Chelsea and Arsenal away. They've beaten Spurs away and Everton at home.

Hope Chelsea make it interesting this weekend!

Man City has drawn two and won the rest. Drew against Liverpool away and Wolves away (first game of season). They beat Arsenal and Spurs away and Man U at home.

Hilarious. You spent about 16 hours coming up with that one. About as insightful as most of your pathetic contributions.

In breaking news —-
Liverpool have lost the champions league final .

It's like the Saints in the 80s, I'm just glad Newcastle isn't looking like relegation is coming.

Rafa will keep you up. Newcastle just need to get rid of Ashley, all the fundamentals are in place, huge following, big ground, proud tradition.

Ah, it’s the Liverpool thing that’s ticked you off? Mate, I was just happy they got to the final, I really didn’t expect that.
I’m guessing you’re a Man City fan?

Does anyone else think the manager of Arsenal looks a bit like Alan Partridge?
I watched the Man U vs Arsenal game and every time they showed him I yelled out, ' Knowing me Alan Partridge Knowing You Arsenal manager, ahh haa '
