Well, being a Cup final, I figured it was as likely he was 'football family' as an actual fan of one of the clubs. Good for him. Must've been a great day.
What a brilliant player Eze is - the reason why we didn't trigger his release clause last summer was because Vegemite didn't want him. Would be nice to have someone like that to play in attack for the cup final.
Nope, their chairman said after the window closed that he was surprised nobody triggered the release clause. That's why it's called a release clause, there was nothing they could have done to stop it. I know a lot of Spurs supporters poo-pooed his potential signing while raving about shit players like Werner, Gray, Tel, and Odobert. Like I said, you get the team you deserve.
This one for Pook: Sheffield Wednesday Captain Ronnie Starling carries the FA Cup across the field with an escort, after his team won the FA Cup Final against West Bromwich Albion at Wembley, 27th April 1935. Sheffield Wednesday won 4-2.
Now, after winning The EL a lot of pressure has been lifted off Ange but, the coach under the most pressure next season is Arne Slot. He won the PL in his first season and he's going to be expected to maintain that form. Good luck Arne.
I think in their last 8 matches Liverpool amassed 10 points only beating us, Leicester and West Ham, three bottom teams. This is why I'm saying that he might feel a lot of pressure next season.
He won the bloody league with several games to spare, in his first season. Any manager at Liverpool will be under pressure, regardless of the season. For someone who says he/she has been watching football since the 1960s, you really have no clue.
Yeah, but only because we had lots of injuries and focused on the Europa. He wont be that lucky next year! Honestly, the world's gone mad. Why can't anyone keep a level head and put this development in its proper place? We are the greatest team ever. Has anyone else ever won the 2025 Europa League? That'd be 'no'. The rest are scrambling for crumbs. Enjoy your morsel, Slot. Now leave us to sup at the big table.
Another coincidence for the Chickasaws: Just 2 days after Spurs win the Europa, Antonio Conte's Napoli clinch the Scudetto with a 2-0 home win vs. Cagliari, as former PL players Scott McTominay and Romelu Lukaku provide the goals. Conte has now won 5 Scudetti with 3 teams.
Up to today only Liverpool, Arsenal and us are qualifiers for the CL, oooh I love that feeling. I wonder who'll join us.
Good point. And of course, the Steel City derby stays, as well. There's more positivity in that result than just laughing at Tufty Wilder.* *but that's still the main thing.
The CL sextet will be us, Liverpool, Arsenal, Man City, Chelsea and Newcastle. Villa miss out after they got royally screwed over by the refs at Old Trafford.
Let's be honest, Villa have nothing to complain about. Us and Liverpool are the only two on that list that deserve to be in, anyway.
