[Savant]

Liverpool will be lifting the Premier League Trophy following their game with Chelsea.

 

[hatterson]

I think that's closer to a yellow than a red.

But at least it was the onfield ref making the call in the end.

 

[hatterson]

Now *that* was a straight red.

 

[hatterson]

Norwich down to 9 men.

 

[hatterson]

And Burnley go up just before the halftime whistle as if there was much question about what the final outcome would be before.

 

[Blender]

2 red cards in the first half.

 

[hatterson]

Absolute peak Norwich right there

 

[YNWA14]

Yeah that Drmic challenge was pretty dumb.

 

[Cassano]

From last matchday, but this looks insanely impressive in this replay.

IMO, he has stolen Leno's spot for now.

 

[hatterson]

Could really use a Spurs result today.

 

[DrMartinVanNostrand]

Could really use a Spurs result today.

There is a not-too-far-fetched scenario on this match day where both Leicester and Man Utd win and Chelsea lose away to Liverpool. If that happens, both Leicester and Man Utd are on 65 points, two ahead of Chelsea, with far superior goal differentials, and then play each other on the final day of the season knowing that a draw would be a mutually beneficial result.

If that comes to pass, I'm 100% certain Chelsea is getting Anschluss'd out of the Champions League race.

 

[East Coast Bias]

Watching NBC now and they just read out a few stats that really surprised me

Since Mourinho took over (discounting matches prior to that)

Spurs are 4th in league table
Spurs have scored more goals than Chelsea, Arsenal and Leicester.

His teams are still #1 in the most painful to watch category tho

Chelsea also play Wolves the final week and it's likely Wolves will be fighting for a Europa league spot, so that's not a gimme win either.

Chelsea could easily be the team left out, even without a mutually assured draw between United and Leicester.

Hes been lights out. When does Leno come back?

 

[Jersey Fresh]

Lol at Watford sacking Nigel Pearson for the final two games. What the hell is the point of that?

 

[HajdukSplit]

Thats how the Pozzo's role, bringing that Serie A job security to Watford, they've fired managers for less

Since they took over in 2012: Dyche, Zola, Sannino, Garcia, Jokanovic, Flores, Mazzarri, Silva, Gracia, Flores, Pearson...and thats not including interim managers (thats more managers than years they've been in charge)

Hoping for a new manager bounce to keep them safe?

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

f*** that VAR check hurt to watch. That goal would've meant so much to Bournemouth.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Great start

 

[Cassano]

Hmmmm a 1-0 lead for Mourinho vs. a Brendan Rodgers team in an crucial match for the latter....

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Kane looks the best he has since his injury today

 

[Halladay]

Leicester just has too many key players out. Tough break for them with this timing.

 

[hatterson]

f*** that VAR check hurt to watch. That goal would've meant so much to Bournemouth.

Giving up the extra goal at the end was brutal too since GD is now their hope.

They won two in a row prior to West Ham, it's not like they've been pitiful. To bring in some rando that hasn't worked with the players hoping for some magical "bounce" is crazy. This would be manager #4 on the season for them, right? You'd think at this point they're bounced out.
