Cadiz and Celta with big wins in the La Liga relegation battle today

 

Poch has done a good job turning things around. Trying to figure out that puzzle of a lineup with an insane amount of players, I’m not surprised it took him a while.

 

Raccoon on the field

 

On the broadcast the mentioned Chelsea has picked up (now) 32 points since Jan or Feb.

 

Going into the final gameweek, there are 11 points between @PandaBear! and me at the top of the Chorus FPL league.

 

Not only does this probably explain his comments about “foundations” being shaky there, but it’s also a good sign that this is kind of guy you need.

I’m still sceptical he’s good enough and detail-oriented enough to win trophies at this level, but he’s absolutely the kind of leader you need, at least.

 

I'm so frustrated with that performance. Obviously we were a bit unlucky with some extremely near misses, but given the patched up United line-up, I really thought we'd have gone at it with more intensity. Definitely missing some fight through the midfield (suspect this game might have been quite different with a fully fit Joelinton) and our defence seemed badly disorganised. That first goal in particular was disgusting, but we got caught a couple of times with the corner routine which allowed Diallo to score.

 

He managed CELTIC

 

I guess VAR isn't so bad...

 

that Alisson goal is one of my favorite moments ever

 

Similarly, if no one has ever seen it, this is the absolute peak of football for me. Just an insane moment.

 

Charlotte have now won 3 straight with all clean sheets. Without a DP in the lineup.

Dean Smith already making his impact.

 

Ederson out the final two games because of small fracture to his eye socket.

 

Totally normal situation

 

Excited to see West Ham get given 5-6 penalties so that Arsenal win the league

 

Just checked the odds for the weekend, particularly City at home, and essentially a £100 bet on them to win would only earn you £11. I hate to be the bearer of bad news for Arsenal fans ITT, but...

 

It’s insane to me that this is still standing after the last decade.

 

Another record to be broken next season, right? lol

 

Oh don’t worry, 99% of Arsenal fans have very much already made their peace with it.

No way City lose their first PL game since December against David Moyes’ West Ham, whose last clean sheet was January 2nd.

 

The fact that you elucidated the reasoning here means you're partly still trying to make peace with it, Sam.

Hope is a bad thing, maybe the worst of things, and no bad thing ever survives.

 

But, I mean...just imagine

 

Arsenal missed their two chances to win the league. Spurs domination starts next year. Sorry guys.

 

Wemby can 100% get even better, I'm sure. Especially if the rumored Knecht draft pick happens and he takes some of the shooting heat.
