OT: Alphonso Davies (and other European football talk)

[ghostnights]

Lampard may not last much longer as Chelsea manager.

Been a good few weeks for United. Very proud of the lads in light of our shaky start. #GGMU

Dang, looks like Arsenal aren’t gonna get relegated, I was getting real excited for a few days. Gonna be a real fight at the bottom of the table between Fulham, West Brom, Burnley, and Brighton.

IMO, Big Sam will do what Big Sam does and keep West Brom from relegation, and I think Burnley will pull through in the end.

My bets for relegation are Sheffield, Fulham and Brighton.

United only have one tough draw in the next (almost) two months. If we can get 1 point away at Anfield and not get cocky, I could see MUFC win the EPL this year. The Wolves, Villa and Sheffield games we would have lost pre-Bruno. No UCL to divert focus either (they’ll likely play squad players/kids in Europa).

CR7 passed Pele today in terms of career goals.

Leeds being knocked out by Crawley Town brings me joy.

I read that this is the first time a League 2 team has beaten an EPL team by 3 goals, I believe. The news stories are on the game result link.

Been having trouble connecting to the Sky Sports feed, so I'm forced to watch the Sport TV3 Portugal feed of the Sky video.

It'll be a battle for the top. Liverpool is 3 back and are at home vs the Red Devils. City is 7 points back with 2 games in hand. And, if no one goes on a hot streak, it'll be a low point total that claims the PL.
