Premier League Gameweek 22



De Bruyne on bench again. So glad i removed him from my fantasy team.
 
Bamford and Calvert-Lewin are abysmal. There really is a dearth of decent English strikers outside of Kane.

Calvert-Lewin will be very good at Dycheball in the unlikely event that he stays fit.

I think there's a bit of a dearth of strikers generally. It's a time when Brazil's #9 is a backup winger for Tottenham, Spain are playing Asensio up there, and Germany have started giving games to a 29 year old Bundesliga journeyman because they have nobody else.
 
BBC seem to think Alvarez is going to be playing as a defensive midfielder :lol:

I hate refs who don't let teams take free kicks early. So annoying
 
This 2nd half has been like a Championship game. At least one of these two teams should find themselves there
 
Liverpool better keep looking over their shoulder. Forest are only 5 points behind.
 
KDB benched again, hmm. Feels like something isn't right at City. I don't really fear Spurs tbh so I'd probably prefer they win today or at least get a draw.
 
Utd fans wanting City to win?

Don't really want City getting three on the bounce, but I think Arsenal (Manager and Fans - some on here exemplify them) in particular are largely such objectionable 15-minute LidL Catalan gobshites that potentially watching them burn is a significant compensation. I'd have no such issue if it were, say, Chelsea.

We're 3 points behind City and 6 points ahead of Spurs with another team as a buffer for top 4 anyway. Why would anybody want fecking City to win?

People on here just get so weirdly defeatist about everything.
 
That Leeds player who took a shot from that far out with nearly the whole team in the box and a man out wide to put a cross in :lol:

The quicker we pull away from any teams challenging for top 4 the better though. I'd rather top4 sealed early. I don't care about city nor do I think we'll be in the title challenge so I'd rather Spurs lose.

Honestly, it's really not that difficult to understand. There's a difference between being a defeatist and a realist.

I've just noticed this and was gonna post about it myself. Surely they are just fecking about for fun.... one week they'll have Ederson and Haaland switched.
 
Wanting a City win isn't that difficult to understand. Arsenal need some competition at the top , we need top 4 sealed soon, Spurs are our rivals for top 4 and we aren't challenging for title this season.

Someones fecking around

Why is it that unrealistic for us to finish ahead of City if they lose today?

They've looked bang average in a lot of games this year, and still have to play Arsenal twice.
 
C'mon Spurs ! Arsenal collapse is inevitable. We are right back in it if Spurs win today :D

Yes it is, weirdo's

Unless we finish top, which is unlikely IMO, then 2nd , 3rd or 4th doesn't really matter
