Premier League Thread 2023/2024

I think Lockyer will retire now. Horrible way to finish a career but no career is worth risking health for. Good luck to him.

Luton confirmed that Lockyer suffered a cardiac arrest. 

 

Fvck.

 

Was it as serious in the Play-Off Final?

 

Incredible work by the paramedics. Football stadiums are probably the safest place to be if that happens to you.

 

Hope he recovers fully and I hope Rob Edwards (and everyone else who witnessed it) is OK.

 

Pretty distressing to see him on the pitch in tears.

 

Let's hope Luton or Wales find him a coaching role, similar to what Spurs did with Ryan Mason.

Just saw this, hope he recovers… so sad to see 

[Guest Bilo]

Horrific news, but so glad he's awake and looks as though he'll survive. He has to respect what his body is telling him now, though. Let's hope that Luton can stay up for him.

[Guest nathan.]

No chance he plays again.

 

I hope he goes straight into coaching.

Burnley are so pants, they have nothing about them. Sheff Utd and Luton are crap too but at least they have a bit of spirit. 

[Corky]

Sky giving us 4 different camera angles of Sean Dyche walking towards the tunnel. Proper coverage.

[Unabomber]

Dyche has been a class act this season 

[whoareyaaa]

Burnley and Sheff Utd are finished

[Wymsey]

There seems like too much emphasis over a possible Liverpool win tomorrow.

A lot of talk of Hag leaving if they lose, when there's various talk of them getting beaten easily.

He won’t be allowed to play professionally again.

Why do you think that’s too much? Lose tomorrow and that’s 8 league games lost, same as Palace and more than Everton. It’s a club getting worse and worse and Ten Hag needs to take his share of the responsibility. 
 

How long till we see Potter there?

The problem isn't only ETH (who is obviously another mediocre, stubborn manager). They have at least 6 players that need to be dropped and put in the transfer list: Onana, Fernandez, Rashford, McTominay, Dalot, Amrabat... 

They need a manager who will get rid of all the above plus more. 

That said they need to do a lottery and pick someone from the season ticket holders. Or give the job to someone like Will Still.

Paid a lot of money for him too.

 

Wish Tom Lockyer well for a quick  and full recovery.

Why was he allowed to play again just a few months after the first incident? If the doctors gave him the green light it's very scary because these football professionals receive the best treatment.

players will down tools then, will be backing Liverpool

[Sly]

Manchester City are weaker than last season. Gundoguan and Mahrez are amongst the worlds most elite players and they haven’t been replaced. KDB injured long term has also hurt them. 
 

The league is changing and I’d like Aston Villa to really push to win the title. The Premier League needs the top 6 having the hose point out of joint. 

[Tuna]

It's concerning that Lockyer was given the all clear to return to playing after his heart surgery given what has now happened. There is lots we do not know of course at this point, but that advice looks concerning.

To be honest I can’t see past anyone other than Arsenal or Liverpool for the title 

[purpleronnie]

I still cant see past man city.

There’s not even a question. I hope he makes a full recovery.
