The thread of the Premier League!

[Motspur Hotspur]

So I thought it might be a good place to put musings on other games we are watching (or not),it always seemed to work well in the past!

Watching Chavski play 'boro. From what I'm seeing our game against them next week could be a real humdinger. Expansive, quick passing from back to front but open in midfield/defence against our possession dominance and strong defence.

I think there will be plenty of room for our full backs...

 

[Don Diaz]

They are playing a similar formation to the one we used at Arsenal, gives the opposition chance to get behind the defence in the corners....that would be nice if we can exploit it.

Rose's suspension/Davies out might lead Poch to roll out the back three again...

It's either a back three or Jan on the left of a back four. I'm not sure what I prefer.

I liked the back three, but it was dependent on having Rose and Walker as WBs.

This is a major issue as we don't really have another player to play left wingback really.

Only in our wonderful PL can you score 4 goals and still end up on the losing side. Hope Swansea got their shooting boots out of their system and goes back to firing blanks up front for this weekend.

Eleven of us lot could have put 5 past that Palace defence....it was a shambles as was Swansea's.....

 

[J.spurs]

Let's all laugh at Liverpool. Incredible scenes at Bournemouth. Really think our defensive solidity will see us finish above the dippers when all is said and done.

 

[Finchbee]

Nice one feilani! Job done

 

[The Cryptkeeper]

Loris Karius - remember that name because he is going to cost Liverpool a top 4 spot this season. If you thought Mignolet was a joke, wait until you get a look at this clown.

 

[deejbah]

Ha, all those people telling me fullback isn't a specialised position, just look at Milner's effort. Without Matip they look a lot more vulnerable in defence.

 

[Bbkyid]

All in all a great weekend for us. Beat Swansea and convincingly, City lost, Liverpool lost and in hilarious fashion and United drew right at the end.
I don't really give a arse about the midweek game. Or course I always want us to win, but we should send the kids out. Who wants Europa by the way?
Massive game against United on Sunday. Can put some serious distance between 5th and them with a win.

 

[The Cryptkeeper]

When Klopp told his employer to "go out and recruit Lloris" they must have misunderstood him.

 

[Don Diaz]

Leicester are having a bit of fun at Man City's expense.....only 20 minutes in

 

[Motspur Hotspur]

Leicester are destroying Citeh! Leicester play like they don't have a plan and Citeh can't cope! Makes tomorrows game against Man U VERY interesting.

 

[Style And Glory]

A win tomorrow puts us in the top 4. A win by +4 & we're 3rd on goal difference.

Bet365 are doing their free bet thingy for our game. I was gonna go 3-0 but now it's 4-0 I reckon.!

Everybody's new second favourite keeper was at it again on Sunday.

 

[Don Diaz]

Everton are really poor at the moment.

Was thinking that mate while I was watching tbh. On the Barkley rumours, is he better than anything we have at the moment? Personally, I don't think so. Good player but wouldn't be totally enamoured about him coming to us.

Well he's an England 'squad' player at best along with Wilshire, Drinkwater and others, if we're going to fork out a few quid, I'd want someone better or with better potential. Winks is probably as good at present, Dele, Mousa and Eriksen are better.

 

[Dorset]

Oooh exciting Stoke just equalised! I hate folks who post bollocks like this in the middle of a game! Bruno Martins Indi assisted by the lanky cunt (not my words, he's luvveerly is Crouchy!)

 

[Dorset]

It's like olden days, I am listening to the chavs game on the wireless! Well, the wireless on the Internet, fucking clever this modern stuff eh? I can't be fucked searching around for a stream to watch these cunts. It sounds like me that Costa is being a cunt and Fabregas as well of course, but I didn't need any sort of media coverage to tell me that.

 

[Dorset]

Oh bollocks I'll shut up now, cunts.

 

[Don Diaz]

On the plus side JD has scored again, United are losing and hopefully Stoke will equalise, although I'd like to stuff their winning streak up their arse on Wednesday night. I will be there to witness it.

 

[Dorset]

Oh I got all excited, then I got unexcited again, the lanky geezer equalised then some cunt scored again for the chavs. United are losing to Middlesbrough, I expect Jose is having a real old tantrum I expect it was dodgy refereeing or a pigeon unfairly flew over the ground and his players looked up and went 'ooh look a bird'.

This could be a good weekend for us as either City, Liverpool or both will drop points tonight, Crotchety ( Crochety? Fucking stupid spell checker, I meant Crouchy ) might pop another one in and United might carry on being total shite and lose to farking Middlesbrough. Let's hope the new manager effect works for Palace tomorrow as well and that fat bastrad gets his first win!

It's a right old dilemma mate, I want Stoke to draw or win, but I want the scum's winning game record broken - but not by these cunts, hopefully we can now win 20 on the bounce, just 17 to go!

 

[boo]

KIN MANURE!

 

[Dorset]

Oh bollocks- again! The United cunts have stopped looking at the birdies and have gone and fucking won. I might watch the dippers game on BT Sport later, at least I'm guaranteed a nice feeling in that one, shame they can't both lose but you can't have everything.

AFC Dorset have thumped the taffs so that's nice and you have to laugh when the pikeys lose to a pony Leicester side who have only won 1 of their last 6.
