Hero-of-Time Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 @killthenet apparently Wolves and Swindon also had successive relegations. Chuffed that Sanchez scored. I despise Alli and now dislike Kane after the goal incident. Hoping Man U butcher them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fierce_LiNk Posted April 21, 2018 Author Share Posted April 21, 2018 Hope we can get more control of the midfield in the second half. Spurs are having too much of the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what you're trying to say there. Are you saying that United have been in more finals than Spurs? Sure...but this has been Spurs' stadium for this season. It's a hugely unfair advantage for them. I don't even agree with any semi-finals being played at Wembley as I think it should only be used for the final.

Fierce_LiNk Posted April 21, 2018 Author Share Posted April 21, 2018 Great goal by Herrera. Knew we'd have a chance when Sanchez won the ball in that position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerald Emblem Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 Predictable FA cup final match up. But this opens up a Europa League spot for 7th place, meaning with a 9 point gap over Leicester City that Burnley are all but guaranteed Europa League football next season. Sean Dyche has to be in the running for Manager of the season with that achievement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emerald Emblem Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Elneny has suffered ankle ligament damage, with Egypt in the World Cup, I hope he has a speedy recovery and he won't miss it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fierce_LiNk Posted April 23, 2018 Author Share Posted April 23, 2018 Salah has earned that PFA award, although I don't think that there's anything more that Kevin De Bruyne could have done to win it. He's been City's star player and has enabled their attacking players to do their thing whilst also keeping them ticking over in all areas of the field. I feel a bit sorry for him, but what can you do when a player scores as many goals as Salah has? It would have been just as much of a crime had Salah not won it.

Happenstance Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 I think the fact that it was almost a comeback story for Salah, returning to the Premier League and proving Chelsea and Mourinho wrong probably helped add a bit of extra narrative and reason to vote.

Haha, it's an easy one to forget though as De Bruyne hardly got a kick in a Chelsea shirt. If they had kept De Bruyne, Salah and Lukaku in the same team, I just wonder how they'd be doing now. Did it actually benefit these players to play for lower profile clubs to help them improve? I don't think they'd have been the same players now had they stayed at Chelsea, so maybe it was good for their development. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happenstance Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 I expect having a different kind of manager helps as well. Lallana always sticks out for me with the massive change he had from Rodgers to Klopp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerald Emblem Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 If Mo Salah doesn't make the 3 man shortlist for the Ballon d'Or this year, something is wrong with the powers that be in football. If he wins Liverpool the champions league he should definitely win it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he’d deserve to be there based on what’s he’s done so far this year, but I definitely don’t think he can be shortlisted just yet. We’ve still got a World Cup to get through Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emerald Emblem Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 If Liverpool weren't favourites before, they definitely are now.

There is so much space out there that this scoreline was inevitable. Edit: It's 5-0 now. The defending is just awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerald Emblem Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 (edited) The question is, who gets the hat trick first, Firmino or Salah? With 18 minutes left you wouldn't put it past either of them to do it. Edited April 24, 2018 by Emerald Emblem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
