Really like them and their manager, they are now in a more realistic position with the players they have but should 'should' be too good to drop. Seems beating Liverpool messed up their season, it's a really odd one. Southampton were top of the League not too long ago. Shows how quickly the rot can set in.

Angus Scott Posted 24 February 2021 Share Posted 24 February 2021 I'm sure there is a Uefa rule that teams from the same city cannot be at home on the same night. But, as was said, a bit irrelevant when no fans can attend. Also Arsenal are playing in Athens, although in fairness they wouldn't have known this when the dates were arranged. To summarise, Uefa think this is important but will continue to turn a blind eye to diving, cheating, timewasting, gaining yards at throw ins, not having the ball in the quadrant at corner kicks, I could go on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The younger managers are trying to play football which is a good thing for the fans. The West Brom -Burnley last week was just a brutal visual experience ! I didn't say otherwise, I just think context is important when throwing stats about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CosbehFox Posted 24 February 2021 Share Posted 24 February 2021 Both of you are correct. Spurs and Arsenal are 'paired' as such it's to avoid them playing at home on the same day. Given Spurs arranged the game for Wednesday back in December, they have just stuck with the date Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KFS Posted 24 February 2021 Share Posted 24 February 2021 Really interesting to me that I look at Spurs and Arsenal as better equipped to win this but we’re higher than them in the league and have beaten both this season. Funny old game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see Kane going to Man City and Son going abroad Apparently Spurs value Kane at 150 million.

Dan LCFC Posted 24 February 2021 Share Posted 24 February 2021 12 hours ago, surrifox said: How can you not feel for them ? Some of us can remember the despair of being managed by clowns, suspicious of the motives of owners and appalled at the lack of organisation , effort and basic ability of our players - it’s utterly soul destroying . I doubt Ashley is bothered , he is so wealthy and seems to enjoy being a dick for the sake of it Yep - they as a club just don't even try, they barely hide the fact that they don't actually push the boat out to be the best they can be. With us you can feel we're really trying. Newcastle are just complacent and that they could drop for a third time in twelve years is a disgrace.

What Chelsea need and what Marina buys only occasionally intersect. At times it's hard to explain their spending except as a hoarder's mentality.

He’s been doing a lot of podcast work over lockdown and made the football twitter scene recently when talking about his time at QPR. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be interested to see their historical form chart. Been a few years now it feels like Southampton are always on either a shit hot run or an utterly abysmal one. Streaky boys.

Apart from Kolo I don't think we have anyone with much European pedigree yet. We need to get better at the dark arts of the game like when Slavia Prague got kelichi a yellow card. That was targeted. Being too honest won't win you any trophies. Edited 24 February 2021 by Grebfromgrebland 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
