Maxus-MIFA9 Supersonic July 16, 2020 Share July 16, 2020 7 hours ago, Spring said: Pool's intensity has dropped since the restart. To be fair, no team can sustain that level for the whole season and the enforced break didn't help them as momentum was lost. They have nothing much to play for other than records which is only in the books. As i mentioned previously, it's a real pity that Pool didn't take the domestic Cups seriously as they could hv achieved doubles, trebles perhaps. Understandably the EPL took precedence but they had a big buffer so I personally feel they could hv kept their eye on other silverware as well. Not knocking them but u really need to be greedy to be remembered. Already won the cup with 7 matches to play. Why go all out ? Klopp already said, he don't care about breaking records. I bet you it going to be a goalless draw at Anfield when Pool meet Chelsea. Pool is helping Chelsea to stay at UCL and keeping ManU at Europa ... ↡ Advertisement 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spring Moderator July 18, 2020 Author Share July 18, 2020 Leeds United back in EPL as Champs of the Championship after 16yrs, 5 owners n 15 Mgrs! Looking forward to their return n also previously strong teams like Nottingham Forest, WBA, Derby County etc will hopefully join them if not this season then soon. WBA looks in the driving seat for the 2nd automatic promotion place whilst Forest are almost sure of a play off spot. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The funny thing is Leeds United, Nottingham Forest, WBA and Derby County are all in the middle of England and near each other. Forest and County are next to each other, Leeds to the East and WBA to the West. Most of the other clubs are in the north and south of England. The Midlands clubs are coming back. And the other coincidence - Brian Clough managed 3 of them, Forest, County and Leeds. Edited July 18, 2020 by Jamesc 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clough was one of great Mgrs of the past, won 2 European Cups in succession for Forest in the days where so called smaller teams could compete with the aristocrats of European football like Real, Milan, Bayern n gang. It's near impossible to do that today. Clough was certainly a character. Yes old days midlands teams were strong. Now it's the north west (Pool and the Mancs) or London (Arsenal, Spurs n Chelsea). 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spring Moderator July 20, 2020 Author Share July 20, 2020 Arsenal will play Chelsea in an all London FA Cup Final after they both upset the 2 Manchester clubs City and United by 2-0 and 3-1 respectively in last weekend's S/Finals. This will be the first domestic trophy not won by either City or Pool since 2018. Arsenal has beaten Chelsea in 2 previous FA Cup Finals they have met previously (2002 and 2017). 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spring Moderator July 20, 2020 Author Share July 20, 2020 The race for UCL and relegation places took a significant turn last weekend. Leicester lost 0-3 to Spurs and now look like the likely team to miss out though they could stiil overtake United by beating them next weekend if as expected United overcome West Ham in their game in hand on Wednesday. It may be resolved via goal diff and possibly even a playoff as their goal diff is now same though the Foxes hv scored more goals. Chelsea need 3 pts from 2 games to guarantee UCL next season but against tough opposition in Pool away n Wolves home. Bournemouth has 1 foot in the Championship after losing 0-2 to Saints, they need a miracle to survive. Aston Villa are the other likely team to join them but Watford who are 3 pts clear of the Villians with a slightly better goal difference play City n Arsenal in their final 2 games so they could still be caught. The Hornets compounded matters by sacking Mgr Nigel Pearson yesterday, really bad timing in my opinion. The 3rd Mgr sacked by Watford this season. 5 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Watford can get a new manager bounce then it will be a stroke of genius. As for Chelsea I am sure they will qualify. They will sure beat Liverpool. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man U first team sheet yesterday didnt have goals in them. Too defensive lineup. De Gea really at fault for 2nd goal and arguably should have saved the other two Shows that champion league still their top priority. They just need to win by as many goals as possible against west Ham and then leicester will have to beat them by same no of goals or more. Anything can happen, Good for neutrals. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
