With some postponements due to the FA Cup, a relatively light week. Still, we get a couple big relegation matches in London, Leicester, and Bournemouth, and the battle for fourth heads to the Tyneside.

Massive weekend once again. This is one of the most stressful final stretches in recent memory for me.

I thought that was a handball on Trent tbh. First away goal vs bottom ten this season 1-0 LFC. Gakpo with the tap in
I’m not complaining because I want Leeds to lose, but if that happened against West Ham I’d be fuming.

Yeah I didn’t think that was going to go LFC’s way. Hard to complain about it but wouldn’t have argued if that came back

He's definitely better than Ward and Bazunu.
I wouldn’t argue either of those. I think Kelleher starts for a bunch of these bottom half teams. He would walk into Leeds and Leicester teams especially

Gotta think that wraps up the points.

Pretty poor keeping from Meslier there, too. If you're going to come, you have to win it. And then he put the large side of his body on the side where Jota all but couldn't put the ball.

Edit: wrong thread; I did this to myself by not waiting until the game was over.

Every game's a must-win at this point, but considering City gets to put this one in the bank and we're playing the absolutely last-place team, I'm not going to be happy with anything less than smooth sailing. My poor old heart is suffering enough as it is

Dunno. Maybe he pulled a hamstring while farming potatoes? He’s playing against big boys now. Can’t do stuff like that anymore.

All one has to do is compare Haaland, de Bruyne, Son, Sane, Firmino, & Mane's EPL #s to their BuLi #s, to see which league it's easier for a capable defender to stand out in :sarcasm:

It's pretty obvious which league it's easier for a capable defender to stand out in :sarcasm:

Sane wasn’t that good in EPL and Mane are finished. Bad signing. Son had one really good season and a couple of ok. Shit this season. Haaland obviously scoring goals thanks to playing for a team who knows how to feed him. If City played in the Bundesliga he would score 100 goals.

Do you want me to list all players from BuLi who’s shit in EPL?

As an arsenal fan you might not know this, but excuses are for losers :sarcasm:


And what have you got? Sancho, Havertz, Werner, Schurrle, Haller, & Awoniyi?

Is that what you're bringing against Haaland, de Bruyne, Son, Sane, Mane, Firmino, Xhaka, & Özil?

One good season from Xhaka doesn’t make him a success. Firmino recorded 16 goals twice in the Bundesliga. His highest total in one season in EPL is 15. De Bruyne was also very good in both leagues.

I could go on all night with flops from Bundesliga. Don’t have the time and it’s great weather outside.

Sane was electric in the Premier League before his big injury, everything else is revisionist history.
That also he and pep butt heads. But he was fantastic to watch when he entered epl. There has to be a middle ground between all bundesliga talents bust and what ever my friend @cgf hypes every talent. :)
