I’m curious to see what happens to Mooy.
With Huddersfield gone, will they take him back to the championship. Or will they sell him off. Probably won’t make a profit as this year he hasn’t been too great or a standout, especially compared to last year.
Will be interesting to see what clubs go in for him
Recon he is a relegation release clauseQuote:

He aint that good on the ball teams can overlook his questionable levels of work
So there are very credible sources saying that Guardiola has agreed to take over Juventus next season. He left Barca at their peak, he left Bayern after a similar amount of time. Man City may well be in trouble with the FFP and he doesn't want it to taint his legacy.. Could shake up the EPL a bunch if he leaves.
Also, the Spanish media (who are very hit and miss with these sorts of things) are saying that Klopp is Real Madrid's dream coaching appointment.
They want Neymar and Klopp and a small clear out. I reckon Bale, one of Kroos/Modric, Marcelo, Isco would all be the ones on the chopping block.
I wonder if Klopp would even consider it if Liverpool didn't win anything again this year or if he would want to see out what he started there.

Special One "could" be named tomorrow.
Liverpool and City relying pretty heavily on refs decisions this week. City probably deserved to be out of the FA cup and Liverpool deserved a draw at Fulham. Close decisions, not saying there conspiracy but just a bit of luck going their ways at the tight end of the season.
Idk what the keeper was doing pulling Mane, he’s not even getting to the ball, and I don’t think he was playing for contact or anything.
Mooy doing about as well as every other Aussie footballer right now and equalling Derby's record for the earliest relegation from the EPL.
Fulham have also been relegated now. They spent relatively big and it didn't help at all.
Only 1 spot remaining and Cardiff are heavy favourites.
Forget the battle for 1st place. No one really cares.
3rd/4th place is where it's at right now. 4 teams vying to **** up a potential windfall of UCL football next year. Losing to teams in the bottom 8, failing to beat teams that you'd beaten literally the week before, losing to EVERTON 4-0!
This is a quality shitfight going on right now. Let's all enjoy as once great teams and Tottenham destroy the hopes and dreams of their fans each week until the end of the season.
Came here for the same post.Quote:

Even better this week. Not one of them managed a win.Quote:

How exciting it that.
As a neutral I still have a DVD with the entire Fox Sports coverage of the Man City v QPR final day game. Just for the sheer drama of that day.Quote:

What are your feelings on Sarri, Stanny? His journey this season has been up and down but with Champions League secured, a great chance to reach the Europa League final - are Chelsea fans happy?Quote:

Continuing on Jeterpool's serious thoughts, I was reading this morning about Cahill saying he has very little respect for Sarri, in the sense that he hasn't been talked to or told anything in regards to why he isn't getting a run..
It's unclear when that interview was givenQuote:

Why not mention Arsenal, United, Bournemouth, Wolves, Huddersfield, etc. See what I'm trying to say?Quote:
"Still nice to know we can be shit and can still potentially win more trophies then spurs and your lot.
So back on track now that's been said, how likely is this transfer ban going to be upheld for Chelsea? I know Pulisic is already signed and I assume he's the Hazard replacement (given your thoughts and the strong media rumours) - if you think Sarri wants and needs a clear out I don't know if it is going to happen. Are there any prospects from the players Chelsea have loaned out filling the roles of those players Sarri wants to release?
He wont get a clear out under a our current board and its unsure what the hell Roman is up to. Also if UEFA sticks to form then this ban will be shortened or suspended as it was for others but its us so who knows. Also Loan players who should get a chance, Reece James RB at Wigan, Tammy Abraham ST at Villa, Mason Mount CM at Derby but we need a new LB as well, A Striker and maybe a CM and a WingerQuote:

No insecurities here. The better team across 38 rounds will be victorious. I've said that all the way along.Quote:

My point was why take a stab at someone when they are trying to have a civil discussion? People don't engage on in this place because there is too much of it. Besides, you're intelligent enough to realise this and your response is just trying to rile more people.
is this even a thing to get excited about if you consider yourself one of the big boys?Quote:

I dont know any United fans who were excited about that trophy they won last year (and esp the way they played to get there).
there was a season back in the day where Liverpool won like 5 trophies or something and no one ever speaks of it in the same tones as Istanbul, and they will quickly push even another rung down the ladder if they win the league.
When you go so long without winning as we have you take every trophy you can get no matter whatQuote:

From what I see, compared to that of Arsenal.
That's a fair point.Quote:

Always irked me as well same with the how easy a ride Wenger got in the media compared to every single Chelsea coachQuote:

I be keeping the powder dry until then that for sure
As for people not engaging.
Can't help people who are unable to accept alternate opinion on the Internet at all
Spurs though have been a failure for a lot longer than Pochettino has been thereQuote:

To be fair Pochettino has been a success as he has been able to get them into the UCL spots and establish them as a genuine top 4 club compared to the lack of success in the last 35 years
