Sweet! A Batman other games thread! Looking forward to some football tomorrow (today).

 

In other news the Ottawa Senators (ice hockey) GM just made Les Reed look like Einstein by trading away our version of MLT for nothing.

We need some football to have a break from this rain hitting America gargantuan story.

My two most disliked teams playing against each other. Against anyone else I'd want Spurs to lose, but this time I'm hoping that they nick it with. VVD own goal in the 93rd minute.

Definitely! But it's so hard to want a Tottenham win - especially when I hear them singing our song!

 

Does my head in less than that monotonous dirge the Liverpool fans seem to love so much.

Spurs are pretty poor

and should be stuffed 5 or 6 by now

Dippers will have tough games against the lesser teams

 

probably

SPurs looked whacked. Too many of their players have played too much football

Look at the state of Kane. He needs a month off

Tottenham again can't cope with the high press - Poch's own tactical quirk being used against him, and better.

 

Spurs desperately needed to freshen up their midfield in the summer. They've got no mobility at all. Dembele's legs have gone, Dier's a carthorse.

 

Even their full backs - once a vital attacking weapon in their armoury - have slowed and can't move the ball forwards under pressure. Very ordinary.

 

I think they'll finish fifth this season.

 

That being said, Liverpool looked scary and I'm not looking forward to our team of plodders trying to keep pace with them. Could be ugly.

Ducks are lining up for Liverpool to win it.

Obviously, when they do it will be the greatest title win in the history of the world

 

What are the ducks doing to the small matter of Man City?

"We Want Puel Out" ringing out here at Dean Court from the Leicester fans. Bournemouth have been good but not amazing. Leicester have had chances but overall very poor. Foxes fans very angry.

 

& they still beat us :(

Time to remind ourselves, in a Branfootesque way, "Southampton can't afford to live in the same street as (insert ...in this case)Bournemouth and our supporters had better get used to it..."

Hopefully Howe will get poached by some big but hopeless mid table club soon.

 

This should help.

 

 

Anyone in mind ?

 

Can't be us as according to Ralph we're small.

Huddersfield have 5 goals in their last 15 league games. Can't see them surviving this year.

 

Cardiff will also go down.

 

Then it's one from Fulham, Wolves and Newcastle, I think.

I can't see Wolves being anywhere near the danger zone to be honest, and I suspect Fulham will pull away from it as well. I'll swap West Ham (Dildo Bros, & £110m !!) with you though for Newcastle.

 

But lets not get carried away this time last season everyone had said Palace were nailed on certainties.

Pace - Bournemouth have lots of it, whereas the Puel and Pellegrino eras sucked any urgency out of Saints. Having said that, Leicester were poor at SMS but our players didn’t have the quality in the final third to finish them off with Ings struggling with his feet. Leicester fans frustrated at the slow build up and losing that pacy counter attacking thrust that was their hallmark. I’m sure it’s the first thing their new manager will fix if they get someone that understands English football better.

Current bottom 5 are looking poor, but you'd think one of Burnley or Hammers would pull out of it and someone else will get sucked in.

 

Spurs were crap today, anyone playing Liverpool can't bomb their fullback forward like that, as that front 3 will kill you. You need to be compact at the back with at least 1 DM, maybe 2, that then puts the pressure on their midfield to create something to break you down, then put them under pressure 2nd half as they tend to run out of steam.

 

Leicester almost managed it.

The bottom 9 teams have played total of 40 games so far this season. Number of games won between all nine teams is 4.

Suggests the bar for avoiding relegation going to be v low this season.

wolves will not be going down or fighting relegation towards the end of the season
