Other Weekend Games (10/4 -12/4)

[Hansern]

For once I think Solskjaer did the correct thing and addressed the issue with Son. Everyone was thinking it.
You dont roll around like that and stay down for 5 minutes with the slightest of touches to the face. Football is at its most farcical point these days with players simulating injuries and exploiting/conning the referees. Its a shame that not one of the refs have the balls to do anything.

As for the goal disallowed yesterday. Its one of those, yet again, that if the ref didnt stop play to give it as a free kick, it shouldnt be overturned.
But when he looks at the monitor with VAR it obviously looks worse in slow motion from 150 angles.
Son grabs him first, and the arm swings because of that. Just let play continue. I dont care if its Utd.

Just another reason to why football is shite at the moment.

Agree, we now have a generation of footballers who instinctively simulate or exaggerate injury. Did anyone see the Ajax ball boy against Roma?



The Roma player should’ve been looking to boot the ball boy up the arse not feign injury, you could see his brain malfunction slightly as he realised there was no point in pretending a child hurt him.

 

[Halmeister]

We’ll get 3rd at this rate.

Leicester have had awful luck with injuries this season.

Oh great. Relegation it is.

 

[King Binny]

Will be surprised if he stays with Brighton next season.

 

[Halmeister]

Looks impressive. Hope we sign him based on the little I've seen and read.

 

[ibromurph]

Impressive but is he not the sitting DM sort who plays a lot of 5 yard passes between him and the CBs?

We need a Gini replacement who givens us a bit more going forward.

I'd prefer a Houssem Aouar type signing.

 

[ibromurph]

Everton drawing their way out of European contention. Lovely.

Officially above them now.

 

[Dreambeliever]

Things you love to see.

Everton having their best season in 15 years and still being below us 😀

 

[StevieM]

So... thanks to Dreamie, not only are we going to get feltched by Real Madrid, but we’re not finishing top 4 and Everton will finish above us.

Have we checked to see if Dreamie claimed the title was in the bag when we were top around Christmas?

He is also on the verge of declaring Fat Sam as the best English manager of all time

United game will be sandwiched between their Europa league semi final which is a positive for us (if that game is still in the balance after the 1st leg).

If we beat Leeds.. with the rest/tactical planning advantage we'll have, no reason why we shouldn't maintain an unbeaten(winning) run to the end of the season now.

Chelsea hopefully will stumble with the amount of games they'll have.
West Ham will hopefully soon stumble / fall away.
Spurs will be Spurs.
Leicester will hopefully choke again.

We also need one of Arsenal or Chelsea NOT to win in Europe so that we don't need to get 3rd place for CL football.

West Ham aren't falling away - along with us they have by far the easiest run in. At this stage, based on our relative resurgence and the remaining fixtures for all those in contention, I can see West Ham and ourselves taking the two remaining CL slots.

 

[Hansern]

West Ham have loads of injuries and Key players out.
They are currently winning games because Lingard is scoring more goals than he should be doing.
That will dry up and its Moyes.

 

[Dreambeliever]

Only 7 games to go. Not much time to fall away.

Us third
Chelsea 4th
West ham next.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

FUCK'S SAKE
STOP IT ALREADY

Super result.

Jose will be gone surely.

 

[StevieM]

Contract extension incoming for Jose.

 

[RedStar]

If we finish behind this West Ham team we should just give up football. They are woeful at defending
