Dude, you guys should have won that by 2 goals. You hit the post countless times and Jota should have seen red. I’ll take the 3 but LFC should of at best got 1.Man, prophetic.
I left and turned it off at half time to go play a terrible round of golf. I was pretty convinced Spurs would lay down like they did vs Newcastle. I had to watch the replay afterwards to see how in the world they managed to tie things up only to give the lead right back 90 seconds later. Really impressive stuff to snatch a loss at the death like that.
LFC already made their bed. Top 4 isn’t happening. They did play Gakpo in midfield today. I was excited about that.Liverpool putting pressure on Newcastle and United. Newcastle vs Arsenal tomorrow. West Ham needs to come up big against Man U.
Well Newcastle lost today. That is one game in hand done. They need 2 of 4 losses there. Newcastle still has Brighton and Chelsea. If Man U loses today then things could get interesting. I believe Liverpool will win out. 71 point for them. Have to have them all. We'll see. 71 points for Newcastle and 72 for Man U will seal Liverpool fate though.LFC already made their bed.

And there it is: Big win for West Ham. Should be safe now and Man U yikes. Back to back shutouts.Halftime: So far West Ham doing their job. Lead 1-0. Win they are safe, and Man U feet on the fire.
Yeah this one shocked me a bit. But 3 of United’s last 4 are at Old Trafford and they’ve only lost once there in league play this year so I’m not getting my hopes up. However they do have a few draws that surprised me there.And there it is: Big win for West Ham. Should be safe now and Man U yikes. Back to back shutouts.
Declan Rice was superb today. I watched the second half. Someone is going to pay a pretty penny for him. He is on Bayern radar but I see no chance him leaving England.Yeah this one shocked me a bit.

Excellent weekend for LFC though. The cherry on the top would be Everton drawing at BHA. Unfortunately need BHA to start dropping some points but I don’t want the toffees getting all 3 lol
Didn’t get a chance to watch it sadly. Red Sox were on and I don’t get to watch them that often. (I get Phillies games) Also they hid the damn game on Peacock which is stupid. Glad WH won. Was United bad?Declan Rice was superb today. I watched the second half. Someone is going to pay a pretty penny for him. He is on Bayern radar but I see no chance him leaving England.
The lone goal was a De Gea howler lol. Find the video. He does that too much. There was a handball on United that should have been called also. But it is EPL with those. West Ham scored a second goal but it was barely offsides. United showed no energy mostly, nothing clinical in and around the box. Had lots of possession but did nothing with it. West Ham was pretty dangerous but went into a shell at the end. United never really picked up the energy until injury time. Way too late.Didn’t get a chance to watch it sadly.

Bad day for Leicester, and good day for Liverpool and Spurs to stay in Europe with the Brighton hammering. Where did Everton find 5 goals too?WTF, just checked the score and its 5-1 Fulham over Leicester??? Talk about a club that has totally collapsed.
I think Brighton blew their Europe chance today probably.Wild how hard Man U is collapsing at the finish line. Good news for them is the only away match they have left is Bournemouth. Toughest remaining games on paper are vs Chelsea and Fulham. They SHOULD be able to see this thing out and remain in 4th, but they also should have beaten a bad West Ham team.
Brighton have Arsenal away, Newcastle away, and Citeh at home before finishing with Villa away. That final match could be the difference between Europa League or possibly no european competition at all for Brighton. I'm still a huge De Zerbi fan and would love for him to come to Spurs.
What a wild day the league saw.I think Brighton blew their Europe chance today probably.
Even with big Sam I think Leeds done. The Americans there pretty useless as been the case with most American footballers overseas. It is down to the last spot between Forest, Leicester, and Everton.What a wild day the league saw.

Kind of depends. Some have done well. It seems to break down 3 ways.Even with big Sam I think Leeds done. The Americans there pretty useless as been the case with most American footballers overseas. It is down to the last spot between Forest, Leicester, and Everton.
I agree with most of your assessment. Pulisic to Chelsea was definitely a mistake, but everyone to Chelsea lately was a mistake.Kind of depends. Some have done well. It seems to break down 3 ways.
1) They have the skill and mental ability to play in Europe (Dempsey, McBride, Howard, Keller, Friedel, Claudio Reyna etc)
2) They have the skill enough but lack the mental ability or toughness (Donovan comes to mind)
3) Those that just lack the skill to play there.
Pulisic did well at Dortmund, but going to Chelsea was a mistake (but Havertz and others have made the same mistake) but yeah the ones at Leeds are lacking.
I'm guessing Leeds are thinking Bielsa wasn't so bad after all.
