So, if City win their game in hand, and beat Arsenal, they go top. If that happens, they're staying top. Arsenal were done today by blood and thunder and not a huge amount of quality, wobbling like fuck.

That is basically all Everton fans do, scream handball and penalty for 90 minutes. It must be a Scouse cultural thing. The only reason Liverpool fans do it slightly less is the higher proportion of the crowd made up of fat Irish blokes and Scandinavians in jester hats.

"He elbowed me in the face" Good, you fucking cunt.

Jesus, our match against you next week is going to have a ball-in-play time of about 10 minutes. El Shithousico.

Agree entirely, he's fucking hopeless defensively. Doesn't try half the time and when he does, it's so half arsed.

First 11 matches under Gerrard: 9 points, 6 goals. Last 7 days under Emery: 9 points, 6 goals. Gerrard - Proper Fucking Manager.

"There's only one Jimmy Frizzell"

Dunno but we've just beaten about 7 of the shit teams in a row, so it's not quite that cut and dry! It is more about against the shit teams we just go through the motions and come through whereas against the better teams, we pull out more impressive performances.

Not great performance today. Basically did exactly as much as we needed to and nothing more. The better the opposition, the better we play for some reason.

I was flicking between their game and ours today and they look truly awful. They're in big, big trouble, and most worrying for them was Harvey Barnes going off. They create absolutely nothing that doesn't involve him.

Amazing how Lampard is slotted into jobs he's done absolutely nothing to suggest he deserves. I wouldn't be at all surprised to see Carpethead Gerrard roll up at Leicester next.

I thought this before this week, but especially after seeing him against us this week, I reckon Harvey Barnes would be a better buy than Maddison. I'm talking in general terms here, not in terms of what you need in your squad.

That is it. He's done this whilst instilling an entirely different way of playing the game, too.

Unbelievably stupid, and slightly depressing move if they do that.

Chelsea fans reflecting the fact Chelsea are fucking revolting, I see.

There's an outside chance me and you are finished, toon25. You can be SO hurtful.

You're a much better side than Man United, you've got the league position and the momentum. When I look at you and where you are, you look like you deserve it. When I look at Man U and Spurs, my first thought is "how the fuck are they there, given how flakey they are"/ Third in the league, two games in hand on Spurs, that's what I mean by needing to throw it away if you don't finish in a CL place.

Nah, there's no throwing it away from where you are now.

He's a toxic fucking relic. I said it was a stupid appointment at the time, but gave him a chance, and he absolutely created the mess himself.

Too right. I thought we were fucked under Gerrard, in a relegation flght in absolutely the worst season to be involved in it. This is out of the world stuff.

That was a friendly. We beat them 2-1 at their place in the league.

BTW I would absolutely be all over 7th, it is way more than I expected this time last week let alone 3 months ago.

We won at Brighton. We were unlucky to lose to Arsenal, too. Liverpool did us fair and square.

Another thing - Gerrard dividing the squad, playing people against each other, picking fights. Team spirit today: Gerrard was cancerous.

First 11 games (Gerrard) - 9 points, 6 goals. Last 16 games, 32 points, scored in every game. Same squad other than a left back brought in and a striker shipped out. Actually, two strikers out as we sent Archer to Boro.
