      (Though oil rich Man City is too hot to handle), I hope Villa wins and does what Leicester have done. It will be altogether different feelings for football fans around the world.

      The league will be harder than 2024 I see Man City dropping points it will be open title rice tree to four teams at end of the season forget about man city winning 8 or 9 matches consegative

      People talk that city this city that.
      PEP keeps on bringing Young players on like Bobb and the rest and they charge matches for City but no one talks about it,,
      Like it or not, PEP is the Sir of our time and we happy to have him really

      What is Craig talking about?

      Anyways, if you don't want to give in to the conspiracy theories of some secret agenda against Liverpool & 1 or 2 other teams, you have to give in to the fact that Liverpool losing a TOTAL of 9 POINTS becuz of these terrible VAR decisions is a huge advantage for teams like Man City & extremely damaging to their title hopes.

      Foden is the most naturally talented player England have had since since Rooney, Scholes, and Gazza before. I wonder if he gets the recognition he deserves outside of England?

      It is very worrying that Craig is nonchalant about how all of these terrible officiating has somehow comeback to benefit City one way or another. It is very worrying that he just cannot see it. If officiating was half decent this season, Liverpool would be atleast 7 points ahead of City right now but they only 2 points ahead because of terrible officiating which has held them back. That is not a conspiracy, that is a facts. He is being very dismissive by just saying it’s a conspiracy and not providing clear evidence that it’s not.

      No hes not. Foden goes invisible most parts of games, and hes scared of going hard in duels, and hes still too weak. People overhype players so hard. Yes he came in clutch last couple games, but nowhere close to what u try to hype him up for…

      You can look at it differently Steve. I accept all teams have dropped points, but Liverpool are on a 14 game unbeaten run. Same cannot be said about Man City, Arsenal or Villa. It's always been the narrative of points on the board rather than games in hand. Would love to know, when this narrative changed to create a conversation? It's been a season of surprises so far, wouldn't be so eager to bet that there may not be a good few more surprises incoming. At this stage, one needs to decide if they are a glass half full or a glass half empty kind of person, to even attempt to make a call. Personally I'll stick to the side of caution until it is mathematically possible to call it.

      Bobb was brilliant and decisive when he came on.
      no idea why Graelish keeps dilly dallying about when he starts games but plays better when he's a sub?

    31. @mark5338 on

      He hasn't been unbelievable at all, he had a great last game but he played okay for the rest of the games, nothing special and not bad. Alvarez is the player that stepped up, played in multiple positions very versitile, knows how and when to press how to open up to passes and ofc knows how to score and assist.
