GWT: EPL - Matchweek 38

[sabremike]

Why do we still have a split screen when the only thing happening is in the left hand quarter of the screen?

 

[Peen]

Wow, Leicester is going down.

Leicester going down provides the best fire sale. Guessing a lot of that team will be on the move.

I wonder if Vardy stays and helps bring them back to the Prem.

Chelsea held an interest in Harvey Barnes last year.

If Raheem moves on, I wonder about that. Poch reportedly wants some PL experienced players.

 

[Jack Straw]

Nice way for him to wrap up his career at Spurs. His CL semi-final against Ajax will never be forgotten.

 

[Jersey Fresh]

Barnes is the best Leicester player in terms of attractiveness to move. I think Maddison and Tielemans are both overrated. Wonder who stays and who goes though.

Big ups to Spurs for barely clinging to 2nd best team in London this season.

Makes the blown 2 goal leads and draw to Southampton hurt a little more.

A bit, although I think a fully motivated City doesn't drop those points.

Saw the other day that they have won 8 Premier League fixtures since he was sacked.

Don't think that's true. They won 4 after his sacking last season and 7 this season. The 4 they won last season was one fewer than the 5 they won under Bielsa last season, and Bielsa was there for 27 of 38 matches.

Then the number on the graphic was 11, not 8!

Doing the math real quick, that adds up!

For those wondering, when Bielsa was sacked, they were on 32 point pace. Burnley was relegated with 35 points. The idea that Bielsa's sacking is what caused them to get sent down this year is probably accurate, but only because they would have otherwise been sent down last year.

It's always an interesting question for these teams. If they can get a couple key guys to stay, they likely yoyo right back into the Prem next year.

Shocked that it's been since 15-16 that Arsenal finished above Spurs. Guess they were due for a good season once a decade.

 

[JPBolts]

Can't wait to see what Unai will produce with our financial backing this summer!

Brighton are one of the best clubs in the PL, amazing to do the double 2-1 over them. Pretty sure that all of their midfielders are very promising South American teenagers.

What's really crazy is the number of trophies each team won since then.

So much for Leeds America, it was only 3-4 months ago there was people wanting Pulisic there. All three likely gone, Aaronson might be better to stay but that was a waste of money

Adams really the only one of the group whose stock has gone up at all (or at least held firm) from it, though he still can't stay healthy. Then again, we keep hearing rumors of Marsch for the USMNT ( ), so what do I know.

 

[robertmac43]

Thanks for the memories Mac Allister.

Jesse Marsch would have kept them up if he stayed.

They would have had a better chance of staying up if Adams stayed healthy

Thanks for the memories Mac Allister.

Can he stop a f’n counter attack?

 

[robertmac43]

Can he stop a f’n counter attack?

No. Guess you should let us keep him.

They looked awful under Marsch.

 

[Juve]

What a roller coaster for those fans. Prem winners, CL, and now relegation.

It is quite a surprise. On paper, they have a pretty good team.

 

[Savant]

They looked awful under Marsch.

They did. But was better than what followed

 

[al secord]

Weston McKennie showed that he is championship material.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Thanks for the memories Mac Allister.

Quite an emotional day for a number of players.

 

[Say Hey Kid]

I think Luton Town will be relegated in a year.

Got too close for comfort. If Brighton had something to play for, I think they easily tie and maybe even win that match. I was shitting bricks when they decided to bring on Caicedo and Mitoma

 

[hatterson]

Insane that someone thought this was a good tweet:



Congratulations, you spent 3/4 of a billion dollars and went through 4 managers this season to finish 10 points above relegation and closer to the bottom of the table than 4th.

 

[Venkman]

de Gea saved a penalty, Fred with a great assist. Only thing missing was a Weghorst goal, which he probably should have had.
