The Official 2017/18 Premier League Thread

Thank the lord for that improbable win at the Bridge....we'd be 4pts behind now.

 

[indospurs]

Pool have everything to lose

We have to show steel and nail the best we can

Chavs have nothing to lose from where they were a few weeks ago

Time to step up, another big test for Poche and the lads. FOCUS !

 

[Robbo]

For GHod's sake let there be a winner tonight so that we are rid of WBA for at least one season. Bloody hoodoo team.

 

[Rorschach]

I like Austin. He is no world beater but would be a half decent backup for Kane.

To do what? I think we can do better than that and should be aiming for higher standards if we are serious about winning a trophy

Who is going to come and sit on the bench and watch Harry week in week out? Slim pickings I would say.

 

[Robbo]

FFS I jinxed it, didn't I. Now we're destined for a draw, then Swansea and Soton losing, with WBA winning with a large margin on the weekend - que another two dreadfully frustrating WBA games for us next season

I don't have an extensive list but I'm sure the scouts will be on it. Further to that I think next year a striker should be brought in to challenge Kane. He should have been rested/dropped on a few occasions this season due to form/ injury which happens.

Massive goal Soton

I don't see it mate. Recent form notwithstanding Kane is top dog and I can't see the club spending a huge amount of wedge on striker that will compete with him. Players of the pedigree to genuinely challenge him would cost too much. A kid or a journeyman type seems about right unless we persist with Son.

Nice. Now f#ck off West Brom

 

[Robbo]

Nice. Now f#ck off West Brom

And never come back!

 

[paxtonwolf]

Swansea not down yet though. Huddersfield can save themselves ( and us) tomorrow, but I doubt it. Cant see Soton leaking enough goals to go down. 1 from 2 now

 

[Jordinho]

Huddersfield might lose to both Arsenal and Chelsea, but I wouldn't bet on Swansea beating Stoke. Will take a lot for Southampton to go down now.

 

[djp82]

Huddersfield still need a point just to be sure of safety . Hopefully they turn up tomorrow

 

[Daisuk]

Happy to see West Brom relegated. Hopefully we won't see them again anytime soon. Awful, awful team to play against.

 

[Denmark Spur]

And never come back!

Really happy from a Spurs point of a view that they are down.

They really have become a bogey team for us in recent years.

Oh - and a manager winning manager of the month and getting relegated on the same day.

Surely the first time in PL-history that has happened.

 

[Seedy Ron]

SCBC are safe, given the goal difference. They're about 10 up on the other 2.

 

[mudshark]

Swansea are like all the bad bits of Spurs rolled into one. Pretty but toothless; attempt flash moves that don't come off when playing simple is what's called for; take the odd pointless risk. A bit like looking in a dark mirror.

 

[paxtonwolf]

Huddersfield might need to find the biggest bus in Yorkshire tomorrow. Alas I see nothing more than a 4-0 rout
