GWT: EPL - Matchweek 24

[Wee Baby Seamus]

So they said on the broadcast that this might be United’s biggest away league win under ETH. And they might well be correct.

They said they'd never beaten a side higher than 9th away under him, which is... Yikes

Just went back and checked it.

Away wins in the PL

2022-2023 - Southampton, Leicester, Everton, Fulham, Wolves, Leeds Forest, Bournemouth
2023-2024 - Burnley, Sheffield, Fulham, Everton, Wolves, Villa

So yea, this is the best given where the opponents were at.

Have to give credit, Villa was buzzing but Utd were just prepared for them, managed to not get caught out, rushed back with speed when it was necessary, and in the end did just enough.

Also, the Wolves game:

I don't get it

 

[Peen]

Poch should be sacked if we don’t win today

 

[Jussi]

I don't get it

It's the Emi Martinez pic from the World Cup medal ceremony except with McTominay's face.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Not to be crotchety, but Henderson's kit is too close in colour to the outfield Palace kits

I don't get why it's funny

Palace without Eze, Olise, Doucoure and Guehi are a midtable Championship team, so yes, I agree

 

[Peen]

lol

 

[Jussi]

I guess it's McTominay having the last laugh on Martinez, having scored the late winner.

There doesn't seem to be proper attacking plan or patterns.

Things usually end up Chelsea player only having two options: trying to get past at least two opponents all by himself, with no support available anywhere nearby. Which inevitably leads to losing the ball. Or putting in an aimless cross, which results in nothing.

That Gallagher shot near the end was probably their best chance, after at least doing some quick passing and forward runs in the buildup, although it started with Madueke getting control of the ball somewhat luckily.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

80% possession, 1 shot, 0 on goal.

20% possession, 6 shots, 3 on goal.

Jesus christ Poch.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Technical difficulties delaying my suffering

 

[Peen]

The stadium crew playing bob marley was hilarious tbf

Wow that goal was quick

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

GALLAGOAT

 

[gary69]

Nkunku subbed in at the start of 2nd half. That was better, quicker passing and more people in the box.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Gusto is such a wildcard lmao

 

[Peen]

Love the low camera angle at palace

Gallagher needs to play Jackson there

 

[Peen]

Caicedo seems like a player who could be good with a good coach but he’s so mid under poch

 

[Peen]

Gusto is going to get something right here

No confidence from chilwell in that strike.

Maybe Caicedo should be playing wide because that was a brilliant ball and take on

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

That should be a penalty
