The Premier League Thread

In the summer Leicester gonna get raided by armies of Mordor.

you are right but the one player they need to hold on to above Vahrez is Kante imo

 

[zzeezzy]

Like to see him do it for a second season before I'd be wanting him. Maybe this is his breakthrough season at 25 but I'd want more of a consistent period to be sure.

Certainly a genuine contender for player of the year this season though.

Nah he doesn't need another season, he's an absolute wizard, magic on the ball at any moment he can produce. Very rare you get them types of players.

Antonio again. Brilliant delivery from a corner and header.

1-0 West Ham early.

Does anyone want to win the title?

I'd say City are done for the league now. Brings me back to the cup at Chelsea the other week and Pellegrini's foolish decision to go SO weak with all the debutants.

Season's petering out to nothing with a quadruple becoming just a league cup. Might be wrong, but pretty sure they've not beaten a top 6 side all season.

Seen on twitter that apparently they have 3 points out of 33 vs the top 8 thats absolutely shocking

Even worse than I thought. Don't deserve to win the league with a record like that.

Regardless of what's happened recently, if they decide to dispense of Arsene after the season I'll be real sad to see him go. It's like he's become part of the footballing furniture-the old guard of the great era's of the Prem are departing. Yeah sure there's going to be other great managers, but I still feel that twinge of sadness watching old Premier League highlights when we had the likes of Sir Alex, Rafa, Redknapp (during his Spurs stint) and Jose in his "better" days.

Without them we wouldn't have seen the likes of Henry, Bergkamp, Ronaldo-and without the likes of Fergie and Man Utd the England squad may have been far, far weaker. Obviously times change, but from the perspective of someone who's witnessed the birth of the Prem, still feels a bit sad with the old guard slowing dropping out the Prem.

If Spurs end up winning the title, the whole Arsenal fanbase will be calling for Wenger's head.

I'm not going to lie. When I see the biggest rivals of a club win a major trophy (like Spurs)I usually sit back and await the mountains of salt to cascade on forums

Butland's save against Doumbia is incredible how did he keep it out

Mahrez: I thought Foxes only had a rugby team | FourFourTwo

Considering he didn't know they existed the move has worked out very well

Wenger will be gone at the end of his contract anyway, but yeah it'll be sad to see him go.

Harry Kane.

Take a bow son

 

[spook]

Fantastic game.

 

[zzeezzy]

Mahrez is such a magical player.

 

[zzeezzy]

Yeah
Probs player of the year?

Also like LEI shirts.

Yeh he's definitely a contender but I think that Kante and Vardy perhaps will pip him to the post. Probably Vardy.

 

[Scouseinthehouse]

Mahrez is such a magical player.

Like all his teammates, season of his life.

He'd be my POTY. But as they do the voting half way through the frigging year who knows what big name they'll undeservedly give it to?

 

[zzeezzy]

Best thing to happen to this league for a **** of a long time will be if Leicester win it, that's a huge 3 points for them.

8 clear of Arsenal and 5 clear of Spurs. 9 games left.
