Seems odd to me. West Ham have been fairly decent recently, Nuno has got them getting results. Only 3 defeats in their last 11 league games and they were against Liverpool, Aston Villa and Chelsea away. Can definitely see a scenario where West Ham and Leeds play out a draw on the final day to save them both

Aye. Football is clearly all set up against poor little Spurs. Things like FFP, market value sponsorship and refereeing decisions have all been put in place to relegate them. My heart bleeds.

If you fancy me mate just drop me a DM, rather than stalking my posts.

Marseca is a fraud imo. Leicester started their Championship season like a whirlwind but got worked out and they ended up stumbling over the line. His time at Chelsea was basically a replication of that. He’s Pep-lite and unless we bought a whole new squad his very stubborn approach to his brand of football would end up in disaster.

A bit of a myth this is. He’s been much better on the ball the second half of the season. Had a 76% pass rate today, higher than Tonali, Gordon and Murphy also better than players like Munoz and Hughes for Palace. 2/2 long passes, 4 attempted passes in the final third. No idea why we played him when he only needed to avoid a yellow today. He’d have been more important against Bournemouth and Arsenal than today.

Thought it was a stonewall penalty to be honest. For once you can actually see the action of the shirt pull changing the movement of the impacted player, admittedly before he feels it and throws himself to the floor dramatically. The issue of consistency is a different conversation but not sure how anyone can dispute that being a foul.

It’s difficult to answer without knowing what pool we’re finishing in. Ancelloti would be high on my list/first choice, but no idea if he would come after the World Cup. Alonso would be interesting but probably going to Liverpool. If he wasn’t I’d be interested in him. Hoeness, Glasner, Valverde, Iraola and Nagelsmann other options but no idea on their availability, interest levels or other options. Wouldn’t be against us and England swapping managers after the World Cup, but very unlikely. Either way we need to make a decision and act decisively. Whatever the club choose to do I will back but it would be a disaster to not have it decided quickly so we can plan accordingly across the summer.

Wonder how good Murphy and Elanga must be in training and how they cannot ever translate that into a performance on the pitch. You’re having an absolutely nightmare tonight, just log off and try to relax rather than making a fool of yourself on the internet.

What “goods” were you expecting Wissa to deliver in his appearances of *checks notes* 2 and 1 minutes in the last 2 games?

I’m not confident at all Howe gets us in Europe next season. Certainly not CL or Europa.

We’ve scored more goals than Villa in 4th. Conceded more than Forest fighting relegation.

Getting the same treatment Hall did during his first season. Very few minutes and no opportunity to play into form. Whether that was a Howe masterstroke or delaying our opportunity to have a player on the pitch to improve us is up for debate. Had we played him up front every match since he was fit again, would we have more or less points? I think I know the answer to that.

Fucking hope not.

Solely blaming PIF for not replacing the DoFs that Howe has had power struggles with is some stretch even for those two Howe FC supporters. It probably took so long to replace them as it was difficult finding one that he would be willing to work with

It’s criminal how far away we are from this utterly shite Chelsea team. 6th is there for the taking this season. Hope Brentford get it, they deserve it.
