So let me get this right. Brighton have been raided this summer and sold arguably their 2 best players. Yet are beating United. At the Theatre of Dreams?

Is it too early for the ROFLcopter?

That copter will have more flights than Ryanair

Hope so,i've got a tenner at 33/1 on ten Hagg to be the first manager sacked/to leave,

He's 4-1 now,second favourite behind Ralf.

A mate said Paddy Power had already paid out.

He needs atleast 2 full seasons, let's hope he doesn't get it.

[Flip Martian]

I actually hope they stick with him, recognising what a difficult and thankless job he has.

Right to the point where they're flirting with bottom 3 with 6 games to go.

ETH obviously had the ego/self belief to think he could go in there where other more proven managers have failed and make a difference. Maybe MU promised him exactly what they promised the others to get THEM to go to OT in the first place.

Either way, after all the "30 years" gloating and abuse, it's very enjoyable.

Lampard must be one of the favourites to be sacked.

The first 10 (almost) has just flown by.

I have to say, this is comedy gold. Stepping forward in the stream to just before each the 4 goals, his gutted reactions are hysterical.

Tuchel to Conte: "Look eye, Daniel-san, always look eye!"

Don't quote me on this in a few months...

But I hope we don't. We've chopped and changed managers every 5 minutes and it hasn't helped. The board have backed him this summer and hopefully with a forward we'll be OK this season. I'll take an uneventful 14th place right now

Spurs robbed a point there

Best result though, loved the handbags at the end

Had 2:2 in my Super 6 so happy enough. Draws only do their opponents favours in this league when it's going to be another 90+ point season.

Seems like Everton are being picked clean even before the relegation. Looks like Gordon is going as well.

He'll do well at a club where he can actually play and doesn't have to pretend to be broken every 5 mins to time waste.

"Bloody Rabiot, Klopp must be stting himself"



I'm at work at 0450 and I've just spent far too long watching that.

I can see whoever wins getting 100+ this season

How do you figure that? Two of our likely top four rivals are playing. Two points were won instead of 3.

I'm not sure what you're getting at. Unless it's City where you want them to lose regardless of who they're playing any of the other top 6 sides playing each other a draw is better for us as both drop points in a league where the winner will almost certainly lose less than 20 points all season.

Maybe we're saying the same thing and I worded it badly.

[ChocolateFrog]

Are there any clubs run as badly as Utd and Everton in the top 5 Eurpoean leagues?

I can think of Barca but they'll still win something despite being in a st state.

I'm almost certain you are.

We are

I am still not sure what you sentence meant

I set the alarm for 0340 this morning and was changing a leaking nappy at 0100, that's my excuse

Not sure what odds you'd get on that and I think there's only City who could achieve it. On paper, the other clubs in Top 6 contention have strengthened. Strength in depth of the rest of the league is harder to assess.
