Re: Football Season Run In
I'm not at all surprised at Chelsea being the ones pressurising Man U at the end. I mean Arsenal do play good football but they've lost that cut throat instict at the wrong time and it seems to be their usual in recent years, but look at Chelsea's squad and the amount of money they've put into it. Seriously with that squad you'd have to be an absolutely terrible manager to not do well, they could probably enter 2 different teams into the premier league which would both finish top 4. Fair enough they've lost a few key players at various points, but the only one I'd say was a really big miss was Terry (although tbh I think he's way overated
), every other injury there's another player to step in who is just as good (and in some cases better depending on your opinion). They effectively have 2 world class players for every position on the pitch.
I am loving the slight shift in pressure in the SPL tho Tim, should be an exciting end for it, especially seen as if Celtic can win the next old firm and the game after that then Rangers will be 8 points behind with 4 games in hand, it will be very interesting to see if you can handle the pressure. Ofc personally I'm hoping Celtic can clinch it especially after the awards for the season shambles. I can't believe they gave out the award for best player and best manager and all that when there's still so much left to play, for that reason I think it would be hilarious if Walter didn't actually manage to win the league (almost as hilarious as Cuellar getting player of the season and in the very next game getting sent off for a ridiculous goal line handball
)
To be fair to Rangers tho the fixtures this year in Scotland have been an absolute joke, there was a period of a month or so when there'd be a game called off at least every week. Although Rangers getting games postponed to prepare for CL games etc is coming back to bite you in the arse
EDIT: Forgot to say, watched the German Cup Final yesterday cervantes, thought Bayern weren't great (although the 1st goal was an absolute beast, what a pass from Van Bommel to set it up) but a good win anyway, exciting to watch as a neutral
Oh also I see PSV won the Dutch league today so congrats to any PSV fans on here. league was decided in the last weekend of games again over there, loving that, and 4 in a row for PSV, that's mighty impressive
