I think Spurs are really missing Kane at the business end of the season

I think Spurs should ask for this game to be replayed.

Something's happened behind the scenes at Spurs I think, yeah they're "Spursy" of course but I don't think they normally drop-off a cliff like this

Understand Moyes’s football isn’t always the most eye catching and he’s made some strange decisions this season but West Ham fans should be ashamed at how they’ve hounded him out. Not just the fans but also the way the board are going about it. Utterly classless. Sincerely doubt any new manager will help them achieve three successive seasons of Europe!

Awful club for awful fans.

Yeah, not really sure what they expect, they've finished 6th, 7th and won a European Trophy under Moyes (and a Semi final as well) and look likely to get top 10 again this year.

Guess every manager has a shelf life as far as fans are concerned but can't say Moyes has exactly held them back.

For a club that for many years was a yo-yo club many of their fans seem to think that they are one of the elite just because they play in a big stadium (that doesn't belong to them)-they aren't.

Many fans and owners are deluded_I don't think that Blackburn fans are despite having won a Premier League title, something that Spurs and West Ham can only dream of.

At the same time we hear of Moyes ,Hull have done the same with Rosenior supposedly because the owner wants a different style of play after just missing a play-off spot-it's Hull City ffs.

One of the best examples is of course Charlton languishing in the 3rd division of English football-remember Curbishley getting the sack when they were mid-table in the Premier League (or was it called that then?) because he had taken them as far as he could?.
Careful what you wish for has never been more apt.

feels a bit like Charlton under Curbishley. Amazing success and all of a sudden the fans thought it wasn't enough and demanded more. Hello 3rd tier football!

also I have been laughing a bit at some euro football podcasts who have basically said this week that Lopetegui is the Spanish Moyes. He is seen a dour football manager who's teams do not play good football.

Nothing against Hull

I am prolly one of the few people outside of Norwich not that keen on Ipswich.

For premiership underdogs I am happy with Brentford. And Fulham and Palace

I don't see many neutrals giving two oxf*rd about us. In fact I expect most would rathersee us relegated again because of Dai's crazy spending and (if if happens) us being bailed out by a big investor.

“ boring” Premiership results this afternoon.

City get in to gear and humiliate a good Fulham team. Mind you, given the choice, I’d rather they won the Title than Arsenal.

Burnley, Luton and Sheffield United all lose, confirming all three promoted clubs will go back down ( yes, Luton still have a mathematical chance).

Palace on fire again. Olise scores again and makes another. Hope they keep this up next season.

Franchise 1 - 5 Crawley :lol:

Crawley will now meet Crewe in the PO final. Shame in some ways as franchise play the same god awful Velcro/Stamball with plenty of stupid go nowhere sideways shambolic passing about in front of their own keeper that Reading did.

Liam Kelly could be back next season after all!

United won’t want City to win the league so will lay down and die for Arsenal
Spurs won’t want Arsenal to win the league … the same
Integrity of the competition, my arse :lol: :lol:

So, forgetting all that, how many do we think Arsenal will get this afternoon
First few minutes looks like it’s just a matter of time and how many

And United have been very canny in identifying this early on, so have ensured they have form where, if they do lie down and die v the Arse, no-one will think it unusual or even question it.

Casemiro plays like he has completely checked out.

Still, another 2 years to go on £350,000 a week for him.
