After this interview that Steve McClaren did last Saturday I knew that he would be sacked very soon, the questions asked towards him reminded me of Dick Advocat & Tim Sherwood's last interviews before getting sacked.

 

 

 

I think Rafa will keep Newcastle up and instead Sunderland will join Norwich & Aston Villa in the Championship next season.

My fantasy team has taken a real pounding this weekend with there only being 5 matches. 28 points deducted :drama:

Of the teams who appear safe, Palace are definitely the most in danger at the moment. That said, I still think Norwich and one of Newcastle or Sunderland will go down with Villa. I said that a few weeks ago (when Norwich were outside the bottom three) and haven't changed my mind.

It could only 2 months in charge for Rafa if Newcastle were to go down. Nevertheless it is quite a coup for Newcastle United getting Rafa Benitez.

Don't tell me you made loads of changes to get players in? :lol: Most people are in the same position. Going to be tons of players with double game weeks coming up soon..

Yeah that's exactly what happened :lol:, I had to make 8 changes to my team which included one free transfer. My team is mainly filled with Bournemouth and Tottenham players now :lol:

I'm actually worried for Crystal Palace, their current run right now is disastrous.

 

I'm hoping Sunderland go down and I fully believe they will now!

Lol wrong move :lol: Should have just made the free transfer. No guarantee that the points you get this game week will even mean you gain!!

I suppose we're all at that stage of the season where if we're not leading it's do or die to try & catch up, can't afford to have any players not in action! (It would have been wise to hold back my wildcard for the double gameweeks upcoming though :arrr:)

As a Brighton fan, I'm not worried for Palace :P

Thing for Palace is they have quiet a hard run-in. Think Newcastle still have to play Villa, Norwich, Sunderland, Palace & Swansea. It's all in their own hands.

The thing is now there will be more deductions coming my way next weekend when I put certain players back in my team! Normally the only changes that I make are the free transfer or if 2 or more of my players are injured. I put Aguero in my team for the first time in months and he didn't even score today :lol:

 

 

Well whatever happens now it looks as though there'll be a first time Premier League winner this season :cheer:

 

The Tyne Wear derby is gonna be absolutely lethal...

Each win for Leicester is bringing a smile to my face at the moment :D, hopefully they will continue to win the remaining games. Although Tottenham winning the title wouldn't be bad either.

Yeh Spurs or Leicester would make me happy and West Ham in the top 4 with United stuck in the Europa league spots and Liverpool just missing out 😝

Wouldn't mind who wins out of the two between Tottenham and Leicester although I would love to see Leicester City win the league.

Would much prefer Leicester to win it over Spurs, even though I cannot see them ever having as successful season as this.

 

As much as it will pain me to see Leicester win as a Liverpool fan (through jealously more than anything else!!) I think it's good for the league. A pure anomaly, but great for the league.

Next season Leicester would probably finish between 6th-9th.

This is the same logic that probably states that the top 4 next year will be City, United, Chelsea and Arsenal... I'm unsure they'll improve that much or the teams that have made big strides this year will fall away.

 

Leicester show that any team could put together a challenge. Who's to say that Stoke, Everton or Southampton can't push on next year or even someone more left field.

 

These top teams are flawed. One summer won't change that.

Well Chelsea need a complete over-haul :lol: Absolute dogger.
