The battle for 18th!

 

[Cruyff14]

Really need to win this game. And we always struggle against Newcastle too.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

We should really win this, but I'm never confident against United despite how bad they've been in the League.

 

[DBAH0]

Not the best stadium for Forest's owner if he wants to storm the pitch again....

 

[Bostonian]

Please be on holiday Liverpool. Thanks.

Please be on holiday Liverpool. Thanks.

We're on holiday. Think we're saving up for a performance on title unveiling day. Go to the bookies and back a Brighton win.

Just on the European places what would have happened if Arsenal won the CL while finishing 6th and Spurs / Utd win the EL from 16th/17th?

With the coefficient and PL getting 5 places would that mean there would have been 7 CL qualifiers from the PL (5 league places plus CL/EL winner)?

Yes, top 5 + 6th place if they won it, and the winner of the EL.

Here is a peak at Liverpool training this week.

Do the guard of honour then send in a couple of slabs at half time like Arsenal did. The Liverpool players were jogging around for Arsenal's first goal. A couple of them even went for a piss behind a goal post.

Nottingham Forest’s Taiwo Awoniyi is expected to be brought out of an induced coma on Wednesday after urgent surgery on a serious abdominal injury sustained in Sunday’s match against Leicester.

The Nigeria striker was injured after colliding with a post during the 2-2 draw at the City Ground, after which the Forest owner, Evangelos Marinakis, stormed on to the pitch.

Forest anticipate Awoniyi will make a full recovery, though it remains unclear when he will be discharged from hospital. He underwent surgery on Monday. It was a medical decision to place Awoniyi into an induced coma to stabilise his condition and for the 27-year-old’s own comfort.

Awoniyi returned to the pitch on Sunday after lengthy treatment after the incident in the 88th minute. Awoniyi clattered against a post in an attempt to meet Anthony Elanga’s cross. Elanga was in an offside position when he collected the ball but the assistant referee did not raise their flag until after Awoniyi’s collision, in line with International Football Association Board (Ifab) guidance.

It was a ruptured intestine, not a spleen like Petracca. Hopefully he recovers fully, i wonder if they could put pads on soccer posts in future.

One for Jatz




I'm loading up on Vardy first goalscorer.

 

[moomba]

Palmer is normally pretty good but he's got to stop with their sticking his finger in the face of the refs/liners when they make a decision he doesn't like.

 

[chef]

Phew. Wins a win and it's all that matters at this time of year.

Still a chance Man City miss out. At least Man Utd tried, fielded decent teams. I will put a $5 bet on Tottenham to win Europa League, sure to jinx them. $5 on Man City to win FA cup as well.

Liverpool clinches a scarcely believable second title
With an insurmountable goal difference advantage
Liverpool has outperformed a cumulative Man Utd and Spurs EPL performance

Team Pl W-D-L +/- GD Pts

Spurs/ManU 74 21-14-39 105-115 -10 77

Nice little twirl from James.

Arsenal could still miss out too. I think they'll be fine, but it's pretty crazy that they still haven't secured CL yet.

Finishing 6th in a two-horse race would certainly be something.

 

[largebus]

Academy product, key to a Champions League victory and unlike some gave the club a very tidy transfer fee. Hm

Yeah I didn't like it, not like we didn't make out like bandits.

Far worse than tottenham in 2016.
None of the betting agencies are offering odds for it, maybe they know EPL is like the AFL and has a "fix" for such things.

“Chelsea reject, Chelsea reject.”. Tell me you jumped on supporting Chelsea recently without telling me you started supporting Chelsea recently.

Mason Mount won two Chelsea players of the season awards.



Love the suggestion that a person should uproot his and his family from their own country and move outside of their home country because some stranger doesn’t like him anymore.
