GWT: EPL - Matchweek 27 (ft. MW 7 and 8)

[bluesfan94]

Two make up games next midweek. Generally speaking, though, MW 27 is pretty bland. Perhaps the best match on paper will be the London derby between Fulham and Arsenal. Otherwise, it's top half vs bottom half other than West Ham-Villa, where Villa is 11th and will look to stay clear of the relegation scrap that's brewing. Midweek we at least get Crystal Palace's trip to Brighton.

Arsenal likely has the toughest matchup on paper, but Crystal Palace is a very tough team to break down at home. City should win, but I see both them and us drawing.

Besides that, all the top-half clubs should win their matches, but I could see Liverpool potentially losing. Bournemouth got ripped apart by Citeh at home and was unfortunate against the Arsenal. Since that is such a huge match for them at this point of the season, I could see them getting crazy desperate and pulling off a random win. Then Klopp will complain about how dense the schedule is and how football doesn't allow more subs (with some pissing at the ref in postgame).

Leeds v Brighton is usually a solid fixture. For some reason Leeds fans still get salty about the Ben White saga despite him no longer playing for Brighton.

The most underrated derby in world football

If only Maupay was around still. He always new how to wind up the Palace fans and players.

I half think the Ev just got him to try to wind LFC up

He is one of the best shit disturbers in the league.

Funny that Brighton got too good to waste a roster spot on that skill set and The Ev…..are the Ev

As much as i enjoyed many Maupay moments it was telling when the club got rid of him despite no real striker options after him. They would play Trossard out of position, Welbz, or Undav before Maupay. Everton likely wanted him for being poor mans Richarlison.

Richarlison has been poor man’s Richarlison this season. He’s been god awful but no one talking about it because no one cares about Tottenham

It was a terrible signing from the start. Forget who, but some Spurs fan on here kept coming at me for saying they would have gotten the same result from signing maupay.....yet here we are

The right side of history…

If everything is Spursy (which it is to them), then nothing is Spursy. They are just shite

Oh my god. The Spurs brigade was all over that signing.

Signing of the summer....

I just remember cracking up at all the white knighting of him too

 

[Live in the Now]

They thought they were getting someone like Nunez

They got someone like Minamino

 

[Chimaera]

He’s also a clown. Minamino seems like a decent dude. And a cup legend

 

[Brunkmeister]

Despite being out for 3-4 months, Jesus (Who was mostly compared to the Richarlison-signing) was a way better signing so far and he could still play a vital part in the end of the campaign.

 

[Peen]

Wonder if Potter uses Mudryk or Madueke in the 9 role tomorrow

Sterling out injured and he played further up than Havertz (which imo contributed to why Havertz had a good match).

We don’t really have anyone else with pace to stretch.

 

[HoseEmDown]

I didn't think the Richarlison signing would go this bad. The price wasn't good but buying from another premier league club is going to cost you. He has versatility so could play all 3 forward positions and Spurs isn't a big squad so getting 1 guy who can cover for 3 is usually good business. He averaged about 10 goals a season on teams with less talent around him so you were hoping he could at least give tou that if not more. But it appears Richarlison is just Brazilian Zaha, good when he's the main man at a small club but can't cut it at the top.

 

[Savant]

Broadcast keeps talking about Salah and Neto being former team mates at Fiorentina. This is that team



meme team

also at forward was Gilardino, Giuseppe Rossi (!), Bernanrdeschi, Mario Gomez, Ilicic and Salah

insane roster

 

[Savant]

Liverpool humming going forward but incapable of stopping anything resembling a decent counter attack. Dango Ouattara is just running through them. Bournemouth take the lead, probably against the run of play, but LFC have been hemorrhaging counter attacks

 

[Prntscrn]

Since i turned the game on in the 20th minute it has been all Bournemouth, and now a goal to top it of. This Liverpool team is such a shitshow
