EPL 2023/2024

Brighton have a big squad but not a lot of depth if that makes sense. Of the team that did so well for de Zerbi last season, Caicedo & Mac Allister have gone, Solly March has been out since the beginning of the season and Mitoma has been in and out. Joao Pedro is out for a while and they have had a few other injuries as well. Their style is high risk anyway and now they seem to have lost their cutting edge.
-
Only 4 teams previously have come back from 0-3 and won 4-3 in the premier league and now Bournemouth are the fifth. Terrible defending early and wasteful striking near the end, could have ended 6-3. Still thankful to be on the winning side this time

@bayimports I was following it on line. Crazy, crazy game. Once you scored your first seemed Luton totally deflated.
Luton keep on 'almost' getting a result.
I hope they stay up.
Can I take this opportunity to welcome you to the Nothing Left To Play For This Season Club.
Nice welcome to Tom Lockyer. Well done on your supporters paying for some coaches to bring Luton fans down for the game. Classy gesture.

@KiwiPie only last night I was talking to someone at the pub about how sad it was Notts County's form had fallen off a cliff since your change of Manager and how I'd always had a soft spot for them.
Now I'm going to have to retract the whole conversation

Don't be like that, I am pleased that Fulham are having a mid-table season.
Off a cliff is correct. To be fair we were heading over the cliff before the manager left. Second highest goals scored in the division, equal highest conceded - I think you can work out where the problem is.
Last 20 games, won 5, drawn 2, lost 13. Relegation form. The bonus is that we could lose the final 10 games and still stay up.

I feel the fixture betwixt Arsenal and Man City will determine the fate of the ladder.

@KiwiPie Meanwhile, the Hollywood boys of Wrexham AFC march on...
They have stumbled a bit recently but so have all the teams at the top - top 6 all with a realistic chance of finishing top 3 and automatic promotion. 7th downwards is a logjam for a play-off spot.

Unless it's a draw and Liverpool v Brighton is also a draw and then nothing changes
-
Champions League quarterfinal draw:
Arsenal vs. Bayern Munich
Atlético Madrid vs. Borussia Dortmund
Real Madrid vs. Manchester City
Paris Saint-Germain vs. BarcelonaChampions League semifinal draw:
Atlético Madrid / Borussia Dortmund vs Paris Saint-Germain / Barcelona
Arsenal / Bayern Munich vs. Real Madrid / Manchester CitySo Arsenal gets to face Kane again, and the two big boys play each other in the QF. That side of the draw is much tougher.

the way BHA have been of late with their own injuries, I wouldn't put it past Liverpool to win big in that game

Yeah although Bayern are weaker this season, that is a heavyweight 4 on one side and all 4 of the teams on the other side can smell a chance of making the final. PSG v Barca will be hugely entertaining.

Absolutely - 6-0 wouldn't surprise. But with a week off to sort themselves out, BHA actually have the game plan to expose Liverpool at the back - if they can beat their press.
And having won 4-0 at Villa, Spurs lose 3-0 to Fulham who were outstanding.
Great FA Cup tie between Wolves & Coventry. Coventry 1-0 going into the final 10, Wolves score twice to lead going into added time of 9 minutes. At 90+6, Coventry equalise and then win in at the death.
-
First Muniz goal was outstanding, @dogmeat you must be happy with that result!
Im surprised that the Brentford are in relegation contention and expected them to buzz past Burnley.but now really are in the mix. Still think will be safe come the end, but squeaky bum for sure
-
That was a great win for Fulham
today. We have beaten Arsenal,Man U, Brighton given Liverpool a real fright and had successive 5:0 wins but also lost to Burney and Bournemouth and had some weak draws.
We are inconsistent as hell but it’s a great ride. The Nigerian influence is obvious and Iwobi and Bassey have been great since AFCON. Some on the forum ( which I am banned from ) are talking Europe which is a bit over optimistic . -
From a Villa Gan, thank you Fulham! You guys could have probably won by more too you were that dominant. Iwobi and Muniz, WOW!
-
FA Cup Man U vs Liverpool was a great watch. The Man U subs were very good. Game really ebbed and flowed. Probably a blessing in disguise for Liverpool to be out.
