Sir Tokyo Sexwale

2nd - 7th is gonna be fun over the next few weeks. a*** 2nd on 63 points, Villa in 7th on 54 - all with 6 to play. Bournemouth, Fulham & Brighton on 48 are probably too far back to make a late run for them. As it is - a*** 63 Newcastle 59 Forest 57 City 55 Chelsea 54 Villa 54 Arsenal aren't going to drop out of the top 5 but Newcastle may beat them to 2nd. Chelsea have a tough run-in - a decent Fulham at the weekend, Everton who are hard to beat rn, us, Newcastle, the Mancs and Forest - so 6 games and 3 are top 7 sides, Everton and Fulham are no pushovers and the Mancs... Villa have Newcastle & City next 2 - that will make or break them, then getting gradually easier - Fulham, Bournemouth (both decent) and then Spurs, Mancs Forest have it relatively ok - Spurs, Brentford, Palace, Leicester, WHAM, Chelsea Newcastle tough - Villa, Brighton, Chelsea, Arsenal, Everton Arsenal & city have it fairly middling. Can see Chelsea struggling through these, Forest just need to keep their heads, Villa's next 2 will really shape it

nah - there's a player there for sure. I guess some of it is how a particular manager wants to use them / play. He defo looked a lot better with Klopp as manager than Slot but he's also very young

yet our last 10 games all comps are 6-1-3 to their 5-5-0

bloody hell won the league 6/9 seasons too, only really the 1981 was poor and we only won the LC & EC that season

The injury picked up on his medical will rule him out for the rest of the season having made 0 apps for Sunderland frustrating that

we would, coz we're great

i shoulda said "losing a semi hurts a lot more" so I am now

not saying he should sacrifice anything but, from my maybe overly-loyal pov, you're fantastically wealthy already, playing for the club you supported all your life and have been with since you were a kid, that club is also really f***ing good and winning stuff....getting transfer fees for players is a normal part of football. If he'd said a year ago, that he was off and we'd sold him last summer, fine There's no real loyalty in footy but I still try to find it where I can

this is it. Winning the league is for the best team. Arsenal winning the EC wouldn't take any of the shine off us winning the league

at least losing in the semi hurts a lot more

i think it's more we're losing one of the best players in the world and not getting paid a single f***ing bean. We're lucky we have Bradley - otherwise our summer recruitment plans have to change because now we need to spend money on a position we had filled. If we'd sold him for something like MV then I'd be ok with it as we'd have money to replace him

if they play like they did against us, they'll tear them apart

They have Spurs, WHAM & Leicester in their last 6 as well as Brentford & Chelsea (Palace the other side) Chelsea don't have it easy - a resurgent Fulm, the Ev, us, Newcastle, Mancs and Forest. Can see them missing out

it's annoying - the best 2 sides in this competition by a mile were us & PSG, the f*** did we have to draw them then

last season - 23 goals in 42 games, this season 13 in 44
