Big matches today, shame I'll miss most of it, as usual, real life things. Arsenal are favourites today against United, now when was the last time anyone remembers that happening?
~snip

expected a win from Arsenal, but hedged with a draw in a pool, this is one step closer to CL, since United is now definitely out from this race
Tottenham is still in a draw with Brentford, which suits Arsenal as well

brave play by them, and solid 3:1 win over arch-rival, and yeah, I cannot remember when was the last time they were favorites against United

Big matches today, shame I'll miss most of it, as usual, real life things. Arsenal are favourites today against United, now when was the last time anyone remembers that happening? Form is form, class is permanent, surely Maguire, Pogba, Sancho on the teamsheet should light odds on fire? Heh heh heh

Go Watford!

@Welsh looking at Hammers resistance and Villa's poor run to continue? I've gone against both =D

Here's my score predictions, for anyone that wants to be influenced Cheesy

.

Arsenal 3 - 0 Man Utd
Leicester 1 - 1 Aston Villa
Man City 3 - 0 Watford
Norwich 1 - 2 Newcastle
Brentford 0 - 1 Tottenham

Chelsea 1 - 1 West Ham
Liverpool 3 - 0 Everton

Honestly, think Arsenal will run away with the game against Man Utd, especially if they play like they did against Chelsea a few days ago. Man City have a relatively easy game, although I don't think they'll blow Watford away i.e score more than three goals. Liverpool should blow Everton away, although Everton have been playing a bit better recently, so I do think they'll get dominated, but will keep the score relatively low. Probably 3 - 0 or 2 - 0 to Liverpool.

I don't want to be influenced but I agree that there is easy money to be made on Liverpool and Manchester City as both teams are playing at home against weak teams.Sure Liverpool vs Everton is a derby game but I doubt Everton will be up to the task to stop Liverpool while for Manchester City should be a sure win against a team that is almost sure to be relegated for the next season.

I agree here with you but I am not too confident about the win although Utd sucks. I want with 2 - 1 expecting a good contest between two teams. Are you sure about Chelsea vs West Ham? I am going traditional in this match to me it's Chelsea to win even though the last defeat against Arsenal.

Brighton vs Southampton, Palace vs Leeds, Burnley vs Wolves are missing.

Can't wait to see City losing a point against Watford? 🤪

Don't worry guys , I'm sure Harry Maguire already worked on a classy defense or a deadly offense which will most likely end up with someone being injured...most likely someone from his team Grin

so United is in safe hands this weekends or I should say in safe foots ?

I would have never imagine that I would make such jokes about my team but this is just what a fan sees in plain sight where he is watching his favorite team playing. The club really made a big mistake when they sack Mourinho , kept Pogba and so on ... .

In the end Mourinho was right about every single problem that was going in the club and this is even more painfull for Man Utd. I think Harry Maguire is like a cat,he has 9 lifes and is still somehow playing all of the time. I think they really need to sell all of this players that made them problems in this season.

I said it before, but I genuinely believe United find themselves in a position that Liverpool was in not all that long ago. Man United are a massive club, and while they've definitely been in a bit of a rut recently, they likely will recover. In what time frame I don't know, the only issue I see with United is they are about to lose a lot of their players, on a free who to be honest are world class players. It isn't a problem with the players quality, but rather motivation it seems. A lot of these players will move to another club, and find themselves playing to their ability again.

I don't know exactly what the problem is with United at the moment, but I do think its going to need some proper leadership to get them out of the rut they're in. Which, at the moment doesn't seem to be an option, since there aren't many managers out there. I think Ferguson almost saw this coming, he knew there would be some sort of hangover when he left, and that's probably the reason he tried to get Klopp to sign there.

There are no extra benefits if you are in 3rd or 4th. Maybe you could say that you were 3rd in the season but promotion wise being in 3rd and 4th are the same. 1st to 4th will be promoted to Champions League. 5th and 6th will be in Europa. I hope I got your question right.

Yes,,, you did, I just thought there is something like a seeding benefit for finishing higher in the league. Like I know in Champions League draws they have Pots for every group, so like Pot 1 I know is where all the champions of their respective leagues go and then Pot 4 is like the bottom teams. So every group has 1 Champion, something like this. But I wondered if Positions 3 and 4 have any difference like 1 and 2.

I read that United fired all their scouting staff. No more English galacticos I guess,,,

Nooo, why? They were doing such stellar jobs finding cheap gems like Maguire or Sancho Grin

I mean, I can scout players with price tag like that. Not like they are unknown and that you have to find them in some 3rd local league in South America.

I know Maguire is not the only reason why United is this bad but he is sort of the one inviting the jokes on his expanse. Like he is going out of his way to look ridiculous in the game. That kick to Pogba head was state of the art.

Indeed

it was great for me to see them make stupid buys (the talent was great but not the price) guess they finally made the decision to kick out the scouts who told them to buy guys like Maguire and Pogba (again) and Ronaldo (also again) but to be fair they made good buys like Fernandes,,, but maybe Ten Hag hates stars and wants to buy starters.

You are totally right though,,, maybe they STILL will buy galacticos but no need scouts to do that!

well another game in which suothampton does not help me. With this victory, Burnley continues to fight to save itself and puts pressure on Everton and Leeds, at the same time I think Watford and Norwich are already relegated

He's English, so there's a little extra banter to be heard about it, since obviously banter is a very British thing. Also, he does some pretty comical things at times. Honestly, he kind of reminds me of Phil Jones. Obviously, the biggest thing for Maguire is he cost so much, and has delivered nothing up to this point. At least Phil Jones wasn't a massive transfer.

Maguire isn't terrible though, he's Premier League quality, but definitely isn't suited for a top four team. He did a good job at Leicester, and I think would still do a good job at a similar level.

I guess we all agree that 4th place is not actually the hotly contested position but more rather the one everybody is allowing everybody else to take. Chelsea could have cemented 3rd spot but I still do not see anyone else overtaking them, not that there is any extra benefit to finishing 3/4? Or does it determine how you seed in Champions League,,, if so, I never really know.

Chelsea had a bad time against Arsenal in the last game LOL. But still I think they have a better chance then anyone else for 3rd place. In between Arsenal and Tottenham I would bet for Arsenal over Tottenham. In last few matches they were shaken but against Chelsea they came back strong. Let's see if they can continue for rest of the matches.

btw, this https://twitter.com/nocontextfooty/status/1516871503102496770 best bit of football i've seen this week lmao

Hahaha yes man Arsenal and Totenham are two teams who plays in another universe, they can be the best and the worst at the same time, at the same week. They are quantics teams, they lose and win at the same time. This thing its well know in the university of physics london, they call this, "schrodinger's clubs".

So did you take the 4-0 correct score on this game? totally spot on for this one

Yeah, had it in an accumulator, which was for like 300k or something stupid like that. The annoying part is, the rest of the bet nearly came in. I had Man City - Brighton being 0 - 0 at half time, but I did have Chelsea either winning or a draw. That doesn't surprise me though, because whatever I bet when it involves Chelsea the opposite always bloody happens.

That Hannibal guy was lucky not to get sent off as well. It was his fault when they conceded the last goal as well, though shitty Maguire probably should take most of the blame for passing it to him whilst under-pressure. He didn't have much time to do anything before a Liverpool player was hounding him.

I thought so, and another foul probably would have meant he would have been. Although, I did notice the commentators were sort of congratulating him on it because it showed he cared. To be honest, I don't agree all I saw was a kid looking to put the pressure on, and horribly at that. He didn't win it, and wasn't close too. Any other game, and that becomes a liability.

Although, I definitely do agree that Maguire invites a lot of pressure on his teammates in general.

I picked Arsenal to win,,, glad I was the only one. This was my attempt this week to get another yellow cap and get more freebets to win,,, unfortunately other upsets did not happen.

yeah, congrats to Arsenal, and to you
did not expect that after lose over weekend, but Arsenal is obviously playing hot and cold, fighting for CL with Tottenham, that is also playing hot and cold
nevertheless, United is playing cold only lately

Everton took point from Liverpool, and rugged me on Leicester win, but happy to be back on four point difference to Burnley

I had 2-0 originally but then upped it by one to 3-0 once I saw Ron wasn't playing and the rest of the starting line-up/squad. A couple of players I'd never even heard of before.

It was free money to bet on LFC yesterday. Too bad we couldn't get better odds on it.

I am thinking Chelsea should win London derby today. Based on recent form and Arsenal struggles this could be a much easier game for them then usual. My bet goes on Chelsea ML @2.1 and it almost feels to good to get odds like that on this game.

The same as it was yesterday to bet on Manchester City.By winning against Brighton Manchester City turned back the pressure to Liverpool as they are forced to win now every game because they are trailing by just one point.It is very healthy psychologically speaking for Manchester City to maintain the top of the standings why as I said all the pressure which cannot be beneficial in all the cases is completely on Liverpool.

Surprised at the lost game of Chelsea,I thought after that amazing win against Real Madrid they would easily win against Arsenal.

Anybody here thinking Brighton can take something away from City tonight?
They really have good results against the big teams away from home. They drew against Liverpool, Chelsea, West Ham and Leicester and won against Arsenal and Tottenham.

The only current top 10 team that beat them at home is Man Utd (they have yet to play against Wolves).

Would be a bit much to expect but City has a really easy fixture list so I'm holding on to things like these Grin

Nah, not away. I know Brighton beat Spurs away last week but City are a different animal and are in the title race so I'd be very surprised if they even get a point from this. A win for them tonight will take them back top but anything else will see them stay in second place.

It was looking a bit dicey with it being 0-0 at half time. Thought Brighton might manage a point but then City turned it around in the second scoring 3.

@hilarious huh yeah. Had to double back when I heard commentator say Hannibal was coming on. Never heard nor seen the guy till last night, have him to thank for getting a booking as that was on my ticket.

That Hannibal guy was lucky not to get sent off as well. It was his fault when they conceded the last goal as well, though shitty Maguire probably should take most of the blame for passing it to him whilst under-pressure. He didn't have much time to do anything before a Liverpool player was hounding him. No idea why Maguire is still captain. He probably shouldn't even be starting but United don't have much options in defence right now.

Everton-Leicester draw took a lot of people out here but one more game tonight and I think the Round leaders have a chance to get extra slam point!
