GWT: Premier League: 4/1 - 4/2/2017

[Halladay]

Dele with a beauty of a setup to Son to make it 2-0.

Race for the top getting a little interesting

It is the hope that kills you .

Hope is the worst of all evils

 

[The Abusement Park]

Foster....

 

[Alex Jones]

Vardy's finish now... So many good goals today.

Leicester must have absolutely HATED Ranieri by the end. They look like champions again. I genuinely think Atleti have something to be worried about in the CL.

Sucks for them that they are just now getting hot, since I'm assuming they are going to sell everybody over the window.

 

[Hesher]

I can only repeat what I said a few weeks ago, it's time to concentrate on the EL.

 

[Ar-too]

How much of a market for any of these guys though? Vardy is 30 and Mahrez... What to make of him?

 

[bluesfan94]

All the stoppage time

 

[Blender]

Unfortunate result for Chelsea. They were the better team most of the game and had a lot of good chances. Costa just wasn't good enough today especially.

Mamadou Sakho was fantastic for Palace. Saved at least 5 goals himself.

Pretty much. I think Jose realizes that too.

Mike Dean was beyond awful today though.

That last paragraph applies to almost every palace player to be fair.

Shhhh
Palace with yet another win. huge turnaround for them thanks to Liverpool.

Well yea a number of guys played quite well, but I though Sakho was especially great defensively compared to the rest. He really stood out back there today.

Mike Dean was beyond awful today though.

I just finished it on tape delay. The bit right at the end where Rooney and Fellaini got yellows was one of the dumbest things I've seen.

Rondon went to ground and then collected the ball with his hand. Should be a clear FK. Instead Dean lets a scrum form. During that Yacob comes in and throws a body check, again should be a clear free kick. Instead Dean stares at it all and only blew the whistle once Rooney reacted and tossed whoever it was to the ground.

That being said, 2 shots on target is pathetic, even against a parked bus.

It was a perfectly parked buss though. Even with all the injured or suspended in, it would have been tough to get past it.

Well Crystal has all the top 6 teams(Well not Chelsea) left to play so let's hope he is as brilliant as you make him to be. Would be good biz for Liverpool then

It was definitely a well parked bus, but still they shouldn't have as much trouble breaking it down as they repeatedly do.

I think the title race might be on. I think it depends what happens in midweek. If Chelsea drops points to City and Spurs wins, Spurs will be within four or five.

Spurs have an easier run in than Chelsea. I'm also not sure this Chelsea team is as good as some of the results they got earlier in the season.

Don't think we have that much of a chance. I'd still be pretty ecstatic if we ended up 2nd.

 

[hatterson]

That was quite the miss on the penalty

That was quite the miss on the penalty

Reminds me of my favourite soccer GIF.

 

[Live in the Now]

West Brom did us a solid today.

 

[Live in the Now]

Mane left the stadium without crutches, so while he probably won't play Wednesday I don't expect he'll miss much time. Good news there.

 

[Halladay]

That Southampton/Bournemouth game was fun.

 

[awesomo]

Another draw. Reinforces that united need to win the Europa league
