"Bon dia a tots!": The Other Teams thread [R]

Sergio horseface Ramos gets away with it again..

 

Looks like its up to the ref if LPB is to salvage anything from this game..

 

This.. guy.. jeeeee

 

FT: 1-0.. Failnaldo, Fale and Failzema.. Villareal is no Malmo!! What a let-off after last nights result against depor.. Barca increases the lead... who would have tought!!

 

I would have taken 7p over LPB.. lets not get carried away

 

Real Madrid are such great guys

 

Villarreal.

 

LPB could've been out of two competitions by the end of December!!


But they're not, so.... Opportunity lost but big picture obviously still quite positive..

 

I think Mahrez might be the best player in the PL right now. Griezmann level
And Leicester have a nice style
They will fall out of 4th place but still they ae playing great

 

FT: Leicester City 2-1 Chel$hit

Suck it, Mourinho, Cesc, and Pedro!

 

They beating all kinds of records now. [emoji23]

CL only thing keeping Mou alive.. Please Ibracadabra him out of there please.[emoji41]

 

Yeah, shit is about to get real for them! In their next 10 league matches they play Man City and Liverpool home and away. Plus away matches in Arsenal, Tottenham and Everton. That leaves just 3 matches where they would probably be solid favorites to win (Aston Villa, Stoke and Bournemouth).

So this is probably their last week at the top of the league. Maybe they squeeze out one more week in first place given that #3 plays #2 next week. Then again, even if they only get 10 points in these next 10 matches, they could still be top 3. Then their next 9 matches after these 10 are quite easy on paper.

 

Just to show you how long it's been since I've seen any Premier League, I had no idea until this game that Claudio Ranieri was coaching Leicester.
The hug Mou gave to Ranieri after the final whistle suggests he appreciates and respects the job Claudio is doing with a 'small' club.
Leicester are nine points ahead of the fifth place teams.

 

lol One point above the relegation zone in mid-December. Crazy!

Chelsea suck so bad they aren't even good enough to provide us the amusement of seeing them qualify for the Europa League next season, not that that is enough to stop Mou from mocking Iker for playing in that competition.

 

That's pretty crazy scheduling. I am not totally committed to the way the it is done in Spain with having the fixtures in the first half of the year repeat in the same order in the second half with just the home team changed, but I think there should at least be some spacing so that you don't face a team twice in quick succession. Irregardless, Leicester's upcoming fixtures are pretty nasty (LiverpoolX2, Man CityX2, Arsenal, Everton, and a Bojan-led Stoke in the next 10 matches).
