We're going to see quite the FA Cup final: Man Utd vs Chelsea. But even though this is an important trophy in english football, I think it'll be nothing more than a consolation prize, I doubt the fa cup was a priority for both Conte and Mou at the start of the season.

Also, what's with Chelsea players getting angry after being subbed off? the other day it was Morata, today it was Willian...that dressing room doesn't look too happy with Conte.

You are definitely right. The FA cup wasn't priority for both teams, whoever wins it will use it as an avenue to deflect the real problems of their respective teams this season. They can at least say that we won silverware this season and the fans can be happy. That in its self will make this particular FA cup a fierce one, because both teams need something to save some shame.

It is interesting how the priorities change during the season. FA Cup went from low priority to top priority for these two. Unfortunately, I am expecting more of a tactical battle then free flowing football, but we will see soon enough.

at the end it's still a big deal trophy it's the 2nd most important local trophy in England because it will allow you to compete in another trophy that's the Community Sheild not like Cabarro cup also for these times with competition high at most not everyone can won the league so the other teams should be Hapily not getting out trophyless. I rather see United victorious at the end so to that Mourinho cement his stay for another year because the team still needs managerial stability while Conte winning this title will not save his career at Chelsea that ship long gone also I would like to see City and United play another Derby just before next season league starts to see the changes between the champion and the possible runner's up.

Well Liverpool failing was a big surprise for me in the yesterday game. Today games ended as predicted mainly with an Arsenal and Man.City win and a Burnley double chance.

Nothing really surprising when they want to focus more on champiosn league. I mean they could still be the second rank but being the winner of champions league is what matter the most right now isnt it? As for the other match, it is not really important anymore as most position is already fixed by now so most game will be only warming up or showcase between the new player

No surprises for today games. Tomorrow we enter officially the 36th week of the Premier League with the Everton vs Newcastle game. As for the managers they come and go as has always been the case with them, I think it is the players who make a difference and not the manager although the manager has something to do with it. If the players don't want a manager like Bayern Munich didn't wanted Ancelotti they force the manager out by not playing well.

And oh, Dyche is top rated manager according to ESPN full 10/10 marks. Even Pep Guardiola, Jurgen Klopp and Pocchetino only got 9/10. Mourinho is a miserable 6 and Arsene Wenger only 5.

What Sean Dyche has done this season in the EPL with a team like Burnley deserves a lot of praise, would've love to see the team in the Europa League next season but it looks like they might end up in 7th pos in the league table, today's match against Stoke was key but it ended 1-1.

Seriously...? The FA Cup is one prestigious cup to have for a club's trophy collection. It's the League Cup that isn't much of a priority but still good imo.

To say that it's just a 'consolation prize' is plain wrong... I mean with all the history behind the FA Cup and all.

Oh, I think I didn't explain myself clearly. It is a consolation prize for the managers (that's why I mentioned Mou and Conte), but obviously, it's an important trophy for the clubs (more trophies = prestige) and for the fans who are looking to win at least one cup this season. Just like @LFC_Bitcoin said about Mou:

Well Mourinho wasn’t employed & paid millions upon millions a season to win the FA Cup or League Cup or Europa League. He was employed by Man Utd to try & win the PL & or CL which he has failed spectacularly in doing so far despite spending hundreds of millions.

Conte will be sacked this summer any way but he brought them the title.

Also @tokeweed - I suppose I agree. Burnley might find it tough to keep hold of Dyche, do you agree?

Chelsea is a funny bunch, they win the league one season, then they almost relegate another, they win it again, then can't qualify for Champions League. Just goes to show money gets you results but maintaining position is another. And players throwing fits are not good, they should just be let go. Manager is not the problem when players have no discipline.

And oh, Dyche is top rated manager according to ESPN full 10/10 marks. Even Pep Guardiola, Jurgen Klopp and Pocchetino only got 9/10. Mourinho is a miserable 6 and Arsene Wenger only 5.

Premier League is almost finished. city has been made sure to occupy the champion throne.
Well, after all this is done. whether there are already who ensure which team will dominate in next season. I predict liverpool will be able to be a very feared team in next season.

They have done it in the upmost style with a 5 - 0 win at home infront of their own fans.
The rest of the season they can just put on B leaguers to play the rest of their matches to gain some experience.
You know they will be resting their star players to get ready to play for their countries teams in the world cup which start in a bit over a month from now.

Congratulations to the Premier League Champions Manchester City and it looks like they will raise the cup in Huddersfield during the celebrations of winning it.

Speaking of next season, it is a sentence that has always been a mockery for Liverpool or rather "Next year is our year". But indeed if you see the performance of Liverpool under the care of Jurgen Klopp, Liverpool continues to increase. This season Liverpool have improved from last season, if next season continues to increase, Premier league champions are not just a dream.

Stoke vs Burnley - Under 2.5 goals, I expect a boring, low quality game.

Burnley has been anything but 'low quality' the past couple of years. I vote Sean Dyche for manager of the year.

Quote from: LFC_Bitcoin on April 22, 2018, 08:33:47 AM

Spurs did ‘a Spurs’ once again, every time it looks like they could win something they choke.
As for today I think the following -

Arsenal vs West Ham - Arsenal to win comfortably, maybe Wenger’s announcement will lift the whole club & they’ll finish the season well.

Stoke vs Burnley - Under 2.5 goals, I expect a boring, low quality game.

Man City vs Swansea - Party atmosphere at The Etihad, home of the new champions. Easy home win.

2 out of 3 winning bets so far for me though.
It’ll be 3 out of 3 soon as City are 2-0 up after 30 mins.

Just saying... Burnley has performed more than expected. If they get in the Europa League that would be their first in 50 years.

Im saying that this is an important match for both of them as well. They might not be making it as priority but every coach want to win it atleast. Right now it is TOP priority for both of them because if they lose they are not going to get anything at all this season

Probably because they want more playtime because they dont have alot more schedule ahead anymore? btw this is the latest news about conte

Well, lesson learned. Never again.

My recommendation is to bet on Liverpool to score goals against Roma in both fixtures in the Champions League. I expect very fast games with lots of goals from both teams. Liverpool is easy money in the right matches Wink

Liverpool appear very impressive in this season although they finally have to recognize the benefits of City get the Premier League title. Liverpool become one of my favorite team to win the Premier League next season as long as they can defend Mo Salah in the transfer market later.
