Don't get me wrong they have certainly established themselves as one of the Big Six, you feel they need to win a trophy sometime soon.

 

 

It would be absolutely hilarious now if Spurs fell out of the top 4, don't think it'll happen though. More importantly can they go through an entire campaign without a single draw? :o

 

City & Pool switching roles tonight in terms of squeezing past a team or hammering them. Watford are the #1 team for having their tummies tickled against the big boys - they regularly get ripped to shreds by teams above them so that result was a given. Everton will be an easy game too I expect they have a terrible Mersey derby record of late!

 

Final nail in the coffin for Fulham tonight too that's them down. Seems like there won't be a big relegation scrap this season although that final spot is up for grabs - realistically I expect Cardiff to take it as they have some hard games coming up.

 

Watford are in great form, but their home form is far better than their away form and they were due a spanking. Just like Liverpool were due to have a heavy victory. Man City looked pretty laboured and leggy tonight, I suspect it will go down to the wire between both teams. Man City have a very winnable 4 fixtures coming up now before a trick run of Palace, Spurs and Man Utd. Our record against Everton is great at home, but away, while it's solid, we don't win at Goodison Park that often. That said, I suspect there will be a lot of emot=tion in the game which might play in to our hands.

 

Spurs were never in the title race at any point. Sure they were close, but they don't have the same control as City and Liverpool do. They'll get beat probably at least twice against before the end of the season. Plus I don't think they have any winners at all bar Lloris and Son? What Pochettino has achieved is amazing, but there's only so far you can go without investment. They are going to be like Arsenal were for a few years to balance their books unless they sell an asset. The Top 4 race looks interesting, you could make a case for all 4 teams fighting for 3rd and 4th.

 

It's mad that Spurs have lost EIGHT games but won 20 (one less than Liverpool) but have had 0 draws lol.

Was also good to catch up goalwise on city tonighht

Huddersfield who are bottom of the table and 13 points away from safety have done the double over Wolves! :lol:, their victory on Tuesday was their first in the league since November and only their third in total so far this season.

Claudio Ranieri is having talks with Fulham today about his future at the club, he could be sacked today.

 

 

Harry Kane will not be punished following an incident with Chelsea defender Cesar Azpilicueta over a headbutt.

As I expected,

 

Fulham have sacked manager Claudio Ranieri after just 106 days in charge, with Scott Parker taking caretaker charge of the London club, who are 19th in the Premier League.

 

 

What could Claudio do?, the club is in a hot mess, spending more than £100m on players, leaking goals left, right and centre.

 

Good luck to anyone who wants the job. And Scott Parker, good luck you are definitely going to need it.

He's been terrible to be fair, but they were always in a mess. Their recruitment did just not work out over the summer, which is strange really. Must be that God awful defence of theirs as they have a striker who can score goals at least!

Well Fulham are no strangers to employing 3 different managers in a season. Good to see they've learned their lesson from last time!

Former midfielder Parker will become Fulham's sixth manager in 56 Premier League games after Martin Jol, Rene Meulensteen, Felix Magath, Jokanovic and Ranieri.

The more managers the more likely you are to be relegated imo!

Tottenham draw a match in the league for the first time this season, Arsenal were the better team I thought but it would have been an injustice if Aubameyang's penalty had been scored as it shouldn't have been awarded.

 

 

 

Some brilliant goals scored in the Manchester United Vs Southampton match and The Saints played some good football but I'm glad that we won in the end to get back into the top 4. Lukaku has 4 goals in two matches for us, hopefully he'll keep this up.

It was a robbery.

I watched on a stream, some great goals but the game could have gone either way really. Some shocking defending from Man Utd, thought Southampton should have had a penalty too. Attacking phases of play look brilliant at times, but just lacking that control of games at times that both Liverpool and Man City can do. Suspect Top 4 will go down to the wire, personally I fancy Spurs to miss out and both Arsenal and Man Utd to get there. Arsenal definitely have the best fixtures.

The game very much reminded me of the EFL Cup final two years ago where Southampton were robbed and Man Utd found a winner in the 87th/88th minute to take the game 3-2!

Come back and talk wi the grownups when youse make it more than 15mins at Old Trafford without time wasting.

 

3-2 flattered y’all given the ref was on your side the entire game.

I didn't think it was a robbery, Southampton played well but they didn't outclass us. It can hardly be called a robbery when Southampton took the lead and we came back from behind and scored 3 well executed goals that were not debatable in the slightest.

 

 

We had 16 shots compared to 9 for Southampton, 6 on target for us and 3 on target for Southampton. We had 64% possession compared to 36% for Southampton and we had more corners than Southampton.

Maybe that just comes down to the different perceptions of United fans and Saints fans :lol:

 

Surely you could agree that the Saints performance today was way above what you'd expect from a team just above the relegation zone, I felt we deserved a point from that game but it wasn't to be.

Can hardly say the ref was on their side. They could very easily have had 2 penalties, I thought the one on Bertrand personally was a stonewaller. Think the only dubious descsion they got was the free-kick. From what I saw, a draw would have been a fair result. Impressive stuff from Solskjaer to still be unbeaten. Think the away games against Wolves & Arsenal and then the home game against Man City are going to be key.
