This is one of those annoying Rounds of football that seems to stretch on-and-on. The Cityzens defeated the Toffeemen 2-0 over 2 weeks ago and the Chelsea game is still outstanding. Nonetheless I wanted to update the weekly picks and standing.
Weekly Comments
JE: ” Away this weekend so fingers crossed that we all win again in the family (apart from Tottenham and arsenal). So just me and you then really!! I hope we don’t lose to Liverpool. Would hate that…..”
Klopp may rather have been at “Thriller” than watching this “thriller”
KMFE: “Mark this day down in the annals of history: I AM ACTIVELY GOING FOR MANCHESTER UNITED. “
Marked!
BE: ” As I had Man City, Arsenal, Watford and Spurs all down for a win, I thought I had better do the same for Man Utd and hope de Gea is in form”
Seems that DDG didn’t need to be in form.
ME: “Need spurs to win!”
Tough to keep winning. I am slowly not hating the new offside rule but I hate the new offside rule. How you can stand in the six-yard box by the goalie and not interfere with play is beyond me. I think it’s time someone employed the Inzaghi style of play and just always stands offside preventing that high-line defense. I’m sure Poch is working on it.
That lad must have been born offside.
Sir Alex Ferguson
ME: “Chelsea may or may not turn up… “
I’m guessing not!
Weekly Summary
Watford had a good week with Deulofeu scoring the team’s first ever hat-trick in the Premier League. To put into perspective how good that it is, that’s 9% of Aguero’s total!
This weeks Watford survival gauge looks considerably better!
Coca-Cola, Rumbelows, Littlewoods, Milk Carabao Cup Final
Today’s big game was the EFL final between Chelsea and Man Citeh. We expected goals. we got none. We expected Sterling to choke, he didn’t. But nothing was as strange as the ending of an otherwise boring game.
