LCFC have the toughest run-in over the next six games - maybe of the whole league, but certainly of the four teams vying for CL spots...away to Arsenal, Bournemouth and Spurs, home to ShefU and ManU...
They were shit. Much better now. Chelski looking disorganized. Talking (other thread) about Willian. He's been v good. And he scores as I type that. Great FK. 2 each 71 mins.
I really, really wanted Rodgers to clinch that 3rd spot but his frailties at the top level are being exposed once more. But, surely, Leicester can't blow the CL spot. Can it?
I think 3rd and 4th are completely up for grabs. Could go to any two of Leicester, Chelsea, United, and Wolves.
Didn’t see any of the game, but what a crazy result. It’s just a reminder of how much work Chelsea have to do, and how absurd it is that Liverpool have only lost 2 games in 2 seasons.
Look at these fixtures on the last day season. The Champions League places will be up for grabs. I know who I’ll be rooting for. Leicester vs Man United Chelsea vs Wolves
Is it just me or does Chelsea’s keeper look like Kai Havertz’s clone? Maybe Havertz is moonlighting, could explain some of the dire goaltending Kepa’s displayed this last year.
Yep- we have these in the A-League for the games when its hot as its played during the summer here. Generally most games are ok, but some are played when the temps are between 30-40 deg. or 86 to 100 for the US types, and you need a drink break.
there are quite a few players come from warmer climes, they’re prolly wondering why as well. I learnt early tho that it’s easy to get waterlogged if you overdo.
The PK was funny as well. I backed up then went through stop motion, just as Diop stupidly sticks out his foot. Pulisik gathers himself an goes vertical then over for a perfect roll on landing. Penalty.
Yeah the comns saud it was nailed on. I thought his "fall" was pretty theatrical. Defender was clumsy and gave him the chance. We'll have to keep an eye on Pull-o-sick ...
Watching the West Ham Chelsea match, I'd say the priority for the latter has to be defenders. The the entire back four looks like a nine bob note.
Jack Robinson (previous youngest ever EPL debutant for LFC) starting @ LB for Sheffield. Had no idea he was there until recently. Good for him.
Moved from Forest earlier in the season I believe. I was at Forest v Rotherham a couple years back( my bro is a Forest fan ) and he played that game.
Shocking defending by Spurs, big 3 points incoming for Sheffield. Spurs... man. What a reversal. Nearly winning the prem a few years ago, CL final 1 year ago... now not a top 5/6 side in the prem and managed by Jose Mourinho. Yikes.
