Other Football 2023/24

[Jairzinho]

It's obviously subjective, but of the teams below them in the league I reckon West Ham, Newcastle, Brighton, Wolves, Chelsea, and Fulham are all better football teams. Newcastle's goal difference is an outlier, but all the others (including Manchester United) are between -5 and 4.  The odd bit of individual brilliance and the usual refereeing shenanigans afforded to them has them about 10 points above where they probably deserve to be.

 

This is Hodgson areas.

 

They've score two goals more than Luton, a side that cost 48p. They've lost one game fewer than Everton, a side who...are Everton.

Napoli just scored in 85 min to go 2-1 vs Juve. Osimhen awful pen saved, Raspadori follows up

[Lee909]

Bit of a shit move from Alegri. Brings on a 18 year old, Lad gives away a pen 10 mins later and he immediately hooks him off

[Lee909]

Outside of England,Portugal and Scotland are many of the bigger leagues in Europe going to habe much to play for in tbe last few weeks

 

Italy

Inter, 12pts clear with a game in hand

 

Germany

Leverkusen 10pts clear,10 to play

Sounds like a perfect choice for the next Chelsea manager. Unless they go fro De Zerbi, who is also a perfect fit for them.

Getting as many people as they can from Brighton has worked really well for them so far, so targeting De Zerbi makes perfect sense.

Anything that keeps the little Everton enabling cunt away from here is fine.

Game 100% over in Sheffield.

[Code]

Jesus christ, Sheffield Utd really are extremely shite. 

[Jairzinho]

How the fuck did they get promoted? They look like they'd get relegated from the Championship.

Can a team be relegated to League 1 from PL?

Everton hope not. 

[niallers]

Do any teams even fucking try anymore against City or arsenal? Fucking hell, it seems like we've to grind through teams like its the d day beach landings. Teams just fucking fold for them cunts.

They sold Iliman Ndiaye and Sander Berge in the summer.

 

Berge is not exactly pulling up any trees at Burnley and Ndiaye has got 3 goals in Ligue 1 for Marseille.

Sheffield United fans leaving after 13 mins.

Was about to say similar, we obviously dont make it easy for ourselves most times but these teams seem to just utterly roll over in games against City and especially Arsenal of late, only benefit here is it'll keep the Arsenal lot smelling themselves which hopefully breeds some complacency in their tougher fixtures.

This is a truly embarrassing performance. A non league team would put up a better fight.

I think in the case of Burnley and Sheffield United they are just fucking abysmal and City and Arsenal's better ability to play short passes around the edge of the box makes them absolute cannon fodder.

 

Sheffield United spent £60m in the summer. More than all bar the top four in pretty much all other leagues.

[TheDrowningMan]

Keep in mind that Arsenal’s next game is a guaranteed three points at home to Brentford. They’ve had a ridiculously kind run of fixtures.

 

Given that Arsenal’s goal difference advantage will be unmatchable by the time we kick off, a draw for us against City would be a very poor result and a loss is unthinkable if we want to retain any sort of chance of winning the title.

Fucking embarrassing this,  subbing a young lad in the first 10 minutes says more about how shit Wilder is at his job

Yup, disgraceful really.

 

Going to be a long night for them if they let every shot on target in, like they already have.

[Jairzinho]

Are they playing a goalkeeper?

[Tj hooker]

My lad has Arsenal to have 12 shots on target in the match they are already on 8 

[LFC 6 Times]

All their players eating sandwiches?

[Turkish Delight]

Switched it off after the first 5 minutes. The lack of effort from Sheffield United was embarrassing.

 

Just have to hope we can make up the goal difference deficit from tonight when they come to Anfield next month.
