The ****!!!!. I was hoping Chelski we’re gonna drop points. They are, annoyingly decent.

 

Ah well. Have to catch Leicester now

 

I think Leicester might Spurs it again but also think Liverpool might sneak in the back door

Teams round about West Ham still to play each other so just need to concentrate on winning their own games

Aguero could learn a thing or two about taking a penalty from Benny Hill

The last 2 rounds of games will have fans. 1 each for everyone. 

 

Tickets being allocated by ballots. But some differences. Tottenham charging £60 plus booking fee. Burnley tickets free to fans.

I don't know about fleecing, they just spent a billion on a stadium and had millions of expected ESL money ripped away from them. They must need money bad.

They'll get a few bob for Kane

 

He's better off out of there if he really wants to win things

They will, but their debt currently sits at 1.17 billion, comfortably the largest in Europe.

 

If they get 170 million for Kane that's it down to a nice round billion. Then what?

Even an exceptionally low 1% interest is 200k a week in interest alone.

 

They need money coming in.

One of the biggest revolutionary things in the new stadium is the scale of the catering and hospitality including its own brewery. In a normal season with fans it bring in £1m per match. Levy is a complete shark but when it comes to money he’s nobody’s fool. If Kane goes it will be for absolute top dollar, Alex Ferguson after the negotiations to buy Berbatov said he never wanted to have to try and do a deal with Levy again as he refused to budge and bow down to pressure from the Man Utd chequebook.

Yep, which is exactly why he's charging 60 quid a pop when the stadium opens up again - they need to maximise and the fans will pay it.

 

It's other worldly that stadium by the way, makes the Emirates look shit. You have to think if it could help real quality in years to come.

The thing is that if the supporters get (more) pissed off he’s got his trump card up his sleeve, a 27k waiting list for season tickets. A lot of clubs fans can protest by not renewing, but if you know your one season protest puts back to the bottom of that list it’s not so tempting.

There’s the West Ham I know and love & hate. Huge game. Fail to turn up.

West Ham failed to capitalise on Leicester being taken to the cleaners on Friday night

 

Liverpool are going to end up 4th - you just know it

That’s an interesting starting line up from Arsenal when you look at their bench. Reeks of players being taught a lesson by Arteta.

Really lethargic today. Huge improvement this season but still a bit short of the top sides.  A couple of really good signings could maybe close that gap

I’m happy with the season mate regardless of Europe. TBH I think we’re a bit short of being decent there yet but, even when not at their best could have nicked that they take their chances.

Still 3 big games mind

Said the defender was covering but he stumbled

A few weeks ago it looked like the relegation battle was going to the wire with a potential shoot out between Fulham and Newcastle on the last day.

 

Been some freak results this season though

 

Liverpool 0-1 Fulham

Man Utd 1-2 Sheff Utd

Chelsea 2-5 West Brom

Leicester 2-4 Newcastle

10 changes tonight for Manchester United,,,,,,clearly looking to be stronger against Liverpool on Thursday

 

Reserves and young debutants to the fore

 

Leicester City get a break in the race for top 4 but you can hardly blame Manchester United though it does show the relationship between Manchester United and Liverpool

 

Evans still out for Leicester City

It's to do with their relationship with the Europa League final.

 

Everything is geared to that.

 

With modern sports science it is possible to play every 2 days. But the general view in football is every side including Liverpool have already played too many games this season. 

 

The EPL have punished Man Utd for their failures in security. Maybe this is Man Utd's response.

2 home wins for Man Utd this week and a Newcastle win on Friday makes it interesting for the last 2 matches of the season.

I agree - it's City's to lose and it would be ironic if those arseholes at Old Trafford last Sunday end up costing them whatever chance they had of winning the title

Its going to be hard to prove. 

 

But Solskjaer making a double substitution before a corner might suggest some things.

 

Well done Leicester. Deserved.

I wonder how they managed that ?

Staggered that Robbie Savage reckons Pep is the best manager in history. He certainly knows his way around a chequebook, I'll give him that.

There’s quite a few other managers you can add to that.

Doesn't even come into the equation until he wins something with an underdog. He's had the easiest ride of any manager I can think of.

Agreed. It's sad that these chequebook managers are even being mentioned in the same breath as the likes of Ferguson, Paisley or Clough.

Changed the style of play as well.

From 14th to champions.

Pretty sure if he was the utd manager and Oli was at the wheel at City,utd would have won the league.
