Arsenal's cheapest is over a grand. You pretty much have to apply at least a x2 multiplier when talking about London prices compared to North East. As Minhosa says they will sell out, but it is extremely limiting to those in London who don't earn a great deal. Which are plentiful.

This site has us on 5% now. I guess this also reflects the odds that the bookies are giving. https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/soccer-predictions/premier-league/ It seems a bit low to me, considering my natural pessimism. However, looking at this it is apparent that our run in is one of the easier ones of the bottom 12 teams, with only Bournemouth and Palace having statistically easier final games: http://www.soccerstats.com/table.asp?league=england&tid=10 Taking this into account, our form, the 5 point buffer and the goal difference advantage puts us in a position of strength that is reflected by the long odds of relegation. It would likely take a catastrophic collapse in form and a bottling of the 'gimme' home fixtures in order for us to be go down. So it's unlikely, but knowing what happened to us mid-season means it is still an outside possibility.

Ronaldo has Messi beat in the air but then it's not called headball.

Messi is a better dribbler, passer and free-kick taker.

Can't see either of Barnsley or Burton getting more than 40 points. With Birmingham being just as bad as those two at the moment, it still gives Sunderland a chance of getting out of it. Need Monk to doing something there to finish Sunderland off.

Mitrovic's record for us when he actually played really wasn't as bad as made out, despite some high profile sitters. In terms of minutes played over the last two seasons I mean. The problem with a tactical system, is chances come irregularly for a lone striker and they'll snatch at them. Mitrovic isn't a clinical finisher and that exacerbates the issue. He does however have a lot of qualities, and adds chaos factor. It's unsurprising that in a very attacking team that regularly, stretches teams, throws crosses into the box etc that he's getting on the end of chances like the ones he's scored today and overall improving Fulham going forward.

I think it's purely down to his inability to follow instructions, both on the pitch and off the pitch. As a player he's got far more about him that shite like Joselu.

Scores far too many goals to suit our style of play.

The amount of decisions Juventus get there way over the course of a season is beyond a joke. Far more than Man United ever got under Ferguson. They're proven dirty bastards and always will be.
-
They might as well just give them the trophy at the start of the season, since they've got the league bought anyway.

You cannit let 80 year olds on the radio every week to natter on and not expect that to happen eventually.

I hate it with every fibre of my being, for a whole host of different reasons.

Gattuso is showing up what a terrible job Montella was doing. This is not a vintage Milan side, but there's more than enough there to put together a functioning side. Particularly in defence.

Decent game this Cagliari vs Napoli.

Cairney always looks really good every game I see him in.

Rafa has to take some of the blame IMO, really negative subs in the last 20 minutes. But the players mentality is a joke. The amount of results we've pissed away this season is beyond belief. -

Turning this shite off. -
Couldn't rely on Pulis for an away win if your life depended on it
