If Man Utd win both games in hand the lead is down to 6 points. City arguably have the tougher run in. The amount of games they have to play too, could catch up with them.

 

66/1… ?

It would be 8 points in it, so City can still afford to lose a couple more games

Keeper was a mess for that free kick

Just scored, cuts in from the right hits and finishes it low and just inside the post, beautiful 

 

That's a positive move for them.

It is but seems like the president is getting rid of others to delay things for himself

The elections are in March and he has no chance of winning, should just leave early so the club can start to rebuild properly

Seen them given mind.

If it was the other end it probably would have been given

Dumb from Rakitic

Has to be a penalty that

Ruled out for handball, absurd

Goal stands, correct decision

Barca

 

They’re rapidly on the decline, like. Have they got many promising youngsters coming through?

Fati and Puig look like they will become top players

The issue is the squad is average and all over the place, whoever has been responsible for their transfers has done a horrendous job

Over the years Messi has bailed them out and covered up their shit transfer policy but he's not quite as good as he was

Um ... so how about what Ole is doing with these boys? Playing some pretty outrageous stuff at the minute. Lovely football.

 

Against Aston Villa...

 

Give credit where it’s due. He identified the player he needed the transform things and they’ve been unbeaten going back to February including a convincing win against City.

 

They are going to be right in the mix next season.

 

 

I don't think we're going to be close to the title next year, but we're going to be a threat again and will comfortably finish top four. This has been a good season with very positive signs. It can still end with a top four finish and two trophies.

I actually think you will challenge next season

He's got the attacking players firing, Fernandes signing has been huge.

1-2 signings and there's no reason you won't be amongst it next season.

That's insane

Are they going to just pretend he didn't have that game against City

How wasn’t that a hand ball?

Baffling, thought it was quite clear

I made Vardy captain 

If the PIF is rejected, could they feasibly buy us through Aramaco?

Al-Rumayyan is the Chairman of Aramco so if this takeover fails then there is no chance Aramco can complete a takeover, all issues (human rights, piracy etc) would be the same

Doesn't Gotze have some health condition which caused him lots of injuries in the past or is he fully over that?

But he still hates us now with no Rafa and with a bacon loving PFM at the helm.

He does but I think it started with Rafa, he hates us but he loves Bruce, it's why he got giddy when Bruce picked up more points than Rafa at similar stages

Unless I've missed something else but isn't the problem Keys has with us not due to Rafa? He slated Rafa (with him being a forrin) and we've defended Rafa (aside from the odd knuckle dragger) and I think he has struggled to accept that.

His narrative that Rafa isn't all that and that he is a greedy man with no integrity (ironic much) is one we reject.

You mix that with his employers being involved in a political war with Saudi Arabia and the end result is toxic Hairy Potter.

Love that from Rafa ??

 

Mirror going with June 1st announcement

The are quoting the sun

I have trouble buying that. "Yeah, all done, we'll just wait an extra week before telling anyone".

 

And I know they have to transfer the money, but why set such distant date?

I assume they are working it out based on official confirmation from the PL early next week and the 3-5 days for funds to transfer

Anyone answering 1 deserves an ASBO.

Wanting to win a trophy (first time in most fans lifteime) is deserving of an ASBO?

I dislike Bruce but it's easily 1

Carragher’s latest challenge. Relegated XI, only one player per club & nationality.

 

(Three centre-backs, wing-backs, two midfielders, one in the hole and two up front)

 

Sorensen (Denmark & Sunderland)

 

Coloccini (Argentina & Newcastle)

Southgate (England & Crystal Palace)

Evans (Northern Ireland & WBA)

 

Traore (Spain & Aston Villa)

Robertson (Scotland & Hull)

Jonk (Holland & Sheff Wed)

Keane (Ireland & Nottingham Forest)

 

Juninho (Brazil & Boro)

 

Bellamy (Wales & Coventry)

Ba (Senegal & WBA)

 

 

 

You've got two WBAs in there.

Must be a typo as Ba was West Ham

All these investments will just make it harder for the PL to say no. I don’t think they would have anyway, but think this will make it more difficult.

 

If they do say no I suspect the premier league facebook page is going to get bombarded

 

I've no idea how they'll cope with that. I'm sure that'll bring the whole organisation of the PL to its knees.

That wasn't the point I was making
