ALWAYS_SFC Posted 1 December, 2019 Share Posted 1 December, 2019 Rodgers is doing an unbelievable job. I said countless times that Leicester had a great squad and had completely underwhelmed with the ex manager but I didn't expect quite the almost immediate turn around that Brendan has delivered. When you consider they lost Maguire in the summer too.... Task now is to keep him with Spurs and now Arsenal already sniffing around I miss the days when Rodgers was a "no thanks" from the SWF experts I miss the days when certain fools said we should have got Silva, great times:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GDog07 Posted 1 December, 2019 Share Posted 1 December, 2019 Proper sods law. Pick up a win to close the gap on 17th and above. Today everyone sitting above us intent on picking up three points themselves against teams you'd have hoped would have meant they'd struggle to pick up points today. Nothing is ever easy!

Lighthouse Posted 1 December, 2019 Share Posted 1 December, 2019 I think Everton have the quality in their squad to underperform and still end up mid table, so I’m not too bothered about them. Norwich and Villa not winning are the important games. All change in the last 3 minutes anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bpsaint Posted 4 December, 2019 Share Posted 4 December, 2019 If this run Bournemouth are having carries on you wonder how soon before they hit the panic button and Eddie gets the chop. Regardless of his stature down there the threat of losing out on the riches of the Premier League will take priority over loyalty to Howe, particularly to a club paying the likes of Jermaine Defoe £100k a week. Perhaps Harry will return to his spiritual home and financially ruin them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baird of the land Posted 4 December, 2019 Share Posted 4 December, 2019 Bournemouth reminded me of us versus 10 men Spurs, slow possession but nothing incisive. King is an important player for them to be missing though and solanke is a carrillo bad replacement. They'll probably pick me up and have another run of wins.

saintwbu Posted 4 December, 2019 Share Posted 4 December, 2019 You do know how bad we are? Well aware, given I put myself through watching us most weeks for some reason. My point being, a team that regularly ventures into the top half of the table are absolutely rubbish, so it’ll make it even more criminal for us to get relegated from this **** poor league. But it’s possible, given that we are doing quite a good job of heading towards it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tajjuk Posted 5 December, 2019 Share Posted 5 December, 2019 More favourable treatment for LiVARpool, Robertson elbows Davies in the head and gets away it, TAA stamps on Richarlison and gets away with it, Van Dijk commits a clear penalty and gets away with it.

Penalty was at 2-1 as well. Probably for the best. Can you imagine the amount of whining and appealing Liverpool would be doing if/when VAR starts to impact them in anyway. I'm resigned to them winning the league now. They simply look too strong this season. Decent sized insurance bet naturally helps + avoiding SKY's daily Liverpool w4nk fest also helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusic Posted 5 December, 2019 Share Posted 5 December, 2019 Brighton looked so much more solid that we did at the emirates. Were very impressive tonightBrighton good. The one massive difference between them and us is that their CBs and CMs can control and pass the ball. Especially at the back their passing is so much higher quality than ours. They won't be going down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
austsaint Posted 5 December, 2019 Share Posted 5 December, 2019 Brighton looked so much more solid that we did at the emirates. Were very impressive tonight What impressed me with Brighton is the way they continued to attack Arsenal after conceding - they never retreated into deep defence - something Saints often do....even as recently as Wednesday night. Mooy is such a creative mid-fielder and the run of Connolly, Daupay and Trossard looked impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-T590 using Tapatalk Still think Sheff United will be in the relegation mix up come the end of the season. Some promoted sides take a while to get sussed out by the rest of the league (remember Hull a few seasons back) and i think that may be the case with them. They could struggle for goals relying on the likes of Mousset, McGoldrink and Sharp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
