LionOfGosforth Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 Just decided to watch highlights of Spurs vs Brighton for some reason...holy hell, what they got away with that game is outrageous. From all the chances Brighton missed, to the disallowed goal to the various penalties they should have had (at least 2 were close to nailed on). Then Kane steps up with his one chance. Most outrageous robbery i've seen in a long time, wonder what the XG stats were. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty66 Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 Read earlier that Boehly actually believed Chelsea were playing Champions League football every season because they are, well.. Chelsea Also turned up at the changing room at half time v West Ham with a load of kids as they wanted to meet the players, Tuchel told him to get to fuck. Then he was sacked Absolutely mental.

Exiled in Texas Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 Liverpool only like the idea of playoffs as they are not “in” the spots. Would be funny as fuck to see them push for playoffs as outsiders and then see a 6th/7th place Chelsea or Spurs knock them out of the 5th CL spot Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boehly strikes me as a complete helmet....I can well believe he thought they were simply in the UCL every year....American sports don’t tend to have the concept of qualifying to be in a competition, or relegation, etc.....imagine the look on his face if Chelsea were somehow relegated one season....

Keegans Export Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 1 hour ago, duo said: We have playoffs in the EFL - how is this any different? Firstly there are only (really) three spots to play for in the Championship, the three teams that go up. The PL has the top four, in addition to two/three places for EL/ECL. Plus there are four extra teams in the Championship. If you just had top three = promoted you'd have a vast number of dead games towards the end of the season. Now, that's not to say that the PL doesn't have dead games too, but they are less frequent (fewer teams in the league, plus more places to play for) and there is usually plenty of interest within the final few weeks to keep the product marketable without the need for playoffs.
