GWT: PL catch-up to MW 35 & 36

[bluesfan94]

Okay, so someone help me out here.

What happens if:
- City wins CL
- Leicester/Chelsea win FA Cup and finish 5th

I think that the 5th place team makes the UCL because of City, then 6th and 7th make Europa and 8th makes Conference League? Or am I wrong

 

[Say Hey Kid]

If Chelsea beat Man C Saturday that would be huge for their CL chances. It appears that it's over for the bottom 3 relegation teams.

Shambolic VAR call, again

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Bamford!

 

[Havre]

Reguilon the worst full back in the league? Boy was I fooled by the potential he has going forward. Laughable that he plays game after game when he is so lost. Been so for months now.

And Dier please. Why is it that every new manager plays him? I would pay 20m just to get rid of him.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Rodrigoooooo

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Var is hilarious that looked clear offside but never got a good look

 

[Havre]

30m for Dier. Any takers?

Not that he is the sole reason for this loss. Leeds just a better team.

It was checked. 20-30cm onside from the screen we saw here.

Dier was playing him on. Or maybe it was Alderweireld. Whoever was on the far side

 

[Havre]

I'm pretty sure that they in the VAR-room just checked if Dier was still on the pitch. He was so fair to assume no offside.

Earning a CL spot via continental competition does not cause the domestic spot to bump down.

City or Chelsea winning the CL makes no difference on where 4th and 5th place are headed respectively based on domestic results.

If Chelsea finish outside the top 4 and win there’ll be 5 English teams in the CL. If City wins there’ll be 4.

roma probably

Last night was my birthday. Now that I am vaccinated I am making up for lost time going out to dinner and I spent more last night on a meal than I have in a decade.

This morning I turn the TV on to watch Spurs.........TV isn't working. So I will going out to buy myself a new TV for my birthday today.

Seems like I should be glad I missed it

 

[Havre]

Leeds haven't lost to a so-called "top 6" at home this year. So it would be a bit rich expecting Spurs to just beat them. Leeds deserved the win, but it wasn't like Spurs were useless. Just as usual so many individual mistakes at the back. Did Aurier stop a single cross? The man doesn't seem to think stopping crosses is of any importance. van Dijk instead of Dier and none of the 3 goals would have been goals. Reguilon tries, but he is so lost it is hard to describe. Can't even make the simplest pass. Nothing new in this. And it is not like players like Doherty or Sanchez would have improved us much. And for whatever reason our only half decent defender the last months - Rodon isn't even on the bench. Fair enough Mason going for experience, but if he starts Dier again he should be sacked.

Heroin sounds like a better idea than a TV.

 

[Evilo]

Also Kane's goal was absolutely valid.

Pep special today

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

City playing there b team. I was gonna wonder what pep would do. Does he tip his hat and play what he would in the final or bid his time and consider experimenting. Probably the right move

 

[gary69]

What kind of formation is that, Pep special indeed.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

What kind of formation is that, Pep special indeed.

I think it’s more on rotation and not tipping his hat. Imo.

Or he’s getting out the mad genius urge ahead of the CL. Better now than the final lol

 

[Blender]

What kind of formation is that, Pep special indeed.

It's probably the same 3-4-3 we're playing, where the players are slotted has just confused everyone.

If Chelsea finish outside the top 4 and win there’ll be 5 English teams in the CL. If City wins there’ll be 4.

Okay so if Chelsea wins and finishes 5th and Leicester wins the FA Cup and is in the top 4, 1-5 are champions league, 6-7 are Europa, 8 is conference?

 

[hatterson]

If Sterling didn't have a reputation for being a goodie goodie player I bet VAR would be having a longer look at that challenge.

 

[Savant]

What kind of formation is that, Pep special indeed.

The kind of formation when you don’t want to give anything away for the Champions League final.

And its not exactly like the “B” team isn’t like a 500m squad that makes the waiver the white flag here.
