Relegation form at the moment. Literally.
Based on last 6 games, they are gonna end up 18th... and I don't know if that squad has the balls to fight their way out of it.

They brought in a new manager who plays 3-4-3 but he doesn't have the players to play that system.
. No wonder Ashworth left.

Watched the Attack on Wembley program on Netflix about the Euros final in 2021.
Pretty grim. A late kick off, a day on the lash, lots of white powder and ticketless fans hell bent on getting in regardless (post Covid so capacity had been restricted). On the day authorities were ultimately glad we lost as a win would have kicked off things again.
Rugby's lost a lot of its smugness over the round ball game over time, but you can't remotely imagine anything like that in any other sport.

Yeh it was pretty disgusting really. I hate that kind of entitled mentality we have amongst a minority of our football fraternity. Although there were thousands of idiots that day. No wonder most of the world hate our fans.
And we have Euro 2028 to look forward to.

Man Utd 2-1 Leicester: Foxes manager Van Nistelrooy rues lack of VAR in FA Cup defeat
Ruud van Nistelrooy says his Leicester side were beaten not in "Fergie time, but offside time" as Harry Maguire's controversial late winner sends Manchester United into the FA Cup fifth round.
www.bbc.co.uk
Dreadful game and proved once again why VAR is needed.

Thank you West Ham - great win on Saturday.
11 points clear and breathing a little easier after a few frustrating draws - especially the Merseyside derby. Still, 11 games to go.

Really didn't want Liverpool to win the league but its going to happen now bar a miracle. Arsenal need to sign some firepower in the summer.

I hope Liverpool win the league. Would be a good win for football compared to the horrible Arteta and Arsenal FC.

Liverpool don't really play with a striker either. Nunez has been benched because he's frankly awful in front of goal, and Liverpool can't rely on him to score crucial goals once a season. Jota is injury prone. Liverpool have played Diaz up front mostly this season and on Sunday 2 number 10s.
Arsenal have suffered injuries, but they don't really play with an out and out number 9 either. It's a squad game at the end of the day and other players haven't stepped up like Liverpool when they lost players.
City have been awful this season even with Haaland. He's hardly involved in their build up game.
It just depends how a team plays and how the striker fits into their game plan.

Yup. Captain Palmer or Salah
Palmer has the plum fixture but Salah looks fixture proof and has been in beast mode for most of the season.

I think i'm just going to go for salah tonight, I captained mbuemo last game week which luckily paid off but dont want to bet against salah again. Newcastle have been conceding a few goals recently as well.

Have you played the assistant manager chip yet? I went Slot for weeks 24-25 and then finished on Glasner last week which worked out really well. The table bonus is really worth attacking.
Having said that I hope they drop that chip next year as I'm not a fan of it and prefer player moves only.

Glasner was a great move by you. No I haven't played it yet, think im going to wait for a double gameweek.
Whats your team looking like for tonight ?

Pickford
Gabriel - Trent - Munoz
Salah - Palmer - Bowen - Dango
Isak - Wood - Wissa
Dubravka - Kluivert - Milenkovic - O'Shea
Main issue is Dango or Kluivert to start and who to captain although I'll probably go Salah as Chelsea look poor just now.

Very solid. I also want Cunha but might have to wait a week or two before Wissa's fixtures turn.

That's the thing if I bring him in I will have to bench Isak, Wood, Mitoma or kluivert.
Have you tried that rugby fantasy by super bru ?
