''Soccer'' 2017-2018

[John Ossie]

Cheers I'm actually feeling much more confident of a decent performance against Spurs now. We'e got the benefit of being at home as well, so who knows.

Well, considering that your last two victories have come after I put a bet on against you winning LOL. But yeah, we'll see how you get on tomorrow which will be quickly followed by your F.A. Cup tie with Wolves.

LFC played with a lot of grit yesterday and Salah just might be Jesus in a red shirt

Arsenal could certainly do with someone like Salah at the moment. Another disappointing day today. If we are serious about the top 4 then we just have to be beating the likes of West Brom,who haven’t won a league game for 19 games now. Someone should tell Lacazette that he’s not playing in the French league now yet he seems to be playing like he’s on their traditional winter break at the moment. Overall it’s be a pretty bad month for the Arsenal. 7 PL games in December but only 2 wins. Glad this is the last day of the month.

Arsenal IMO need a total teardown

get rid of Wegner, get rid of the players who clearly don't want to be there any longer

that means Sanchez, and probably Giroud

You could apply that to most of the teams in the PL but hardly anyone gets rid of both the manager and most of the team in one swoop unless they have just been relegated.

[TheInvisibleMan]

at least get Wegner out

time for him to move on

[Ken Ashcroft]

Anyway, Happy new year to everyone and since I’m in a better mood let’s start the new year with my predictions for this year

PL Champions : Man City

Champions League qualification: Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal

Relegation : Brighton, WBA, Swansea

League Cup : Man City

FA Cup : Arsenal

Champions League : PSG

Europa League : Napoli

World Cup : Brazil

He’s got the rest of this season and next season left on his contract.I can’t see him being around after that but I can’t see Arsenal sacking him before then either.

PL Champions : Man City

Champions League qualification: Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal

Relegation : Brighton, WBA, Swansea

League Cup : Man City

FA Cup : Arsenal

Champions League : PSG

Europa League : Napoli

World Cup : Brazil

Here's my predictions

PL Champions: Liverpool...No, seriously it'll be Man City LOL

Champions League Qualification: Liverpool, Liverpool, Liverpool and...Liverpool LOL. No, seriously it'll be Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal IMO

Relegation: WBA, Swansea and Manchester United...Nah it'll be, erm, that's a tough one actually, erm, I'll go with Stoke for now.

League Cup: I can't joke about Liverpool this time LOL. Man City

F.A. Cup: Liverpool (at least this one's realistic LOL)

Champions League: L...P.S.G (I was so tempted to put in Liverpool)

Europa League: Arsenal (I actually fancy you for it for some reason)

World Cup: mmm...Normally I'd say Brazil but they don't seem to be what they once were...I've got a sneaking feeling about Germany so I'll go with them for now.

Other predictions:

Sanchez will remain an Arsenal player until end of season but leave for nothing in summer.

Promotions

Wolves, Bristol City and Leeds to Prem, Wigan, Shrewsbury and Blackburn to Championship, Luton, Notts County, Coventry and Mansfield to League One. Macclesfield and Tranmere to League Two.

Coutinho to join Barcelona (most likely on deadline day) unfortunately for me but I can see it happening.

After leading Germany to World Cup glory, their manager (his name escapes me at present) will be the new manager of Arsenal.

2018-19 season will be the season Liverpool finally reclaim their title (you never know...)


Anyhow, I think that'll do for now. Apart from today's games

Brighton 0-1 Bournemouth
Everton 1-0 Man Utd
Burnley 1-2 Liverpool
Leicester 2-0 Huddersfield
Stoke 0-1 Newcastle

We were going to beat West Brom. Unfortunately, Mike Dean is an awful referee and he gave them a penalty that clearly was not a penalty.

I honestly don't know how Mike Dean is still refereeing Premier League football matches.

the Red God Of Merseyside saves the day

RAGNAR!!!!

[John Ossie]

It was RAGNAROK for Burnley in the 94th minute today and nice to see Mane get a goal as well, particularly as he was the only member of the fab four to start today.

Funny thing is I got two scores spot on today, Liverpool's and Newcastle's. And I was close with Leicester, pity they had to get a third LOL. Wasn't even close with Brighton and Bournemouth. Ah well, hopefully Everton can make it a hat-trick for me

Len will be pissed today as his team's 5-match winning run came to a screeching halt with a 5-2 loss at Fylde today.

the Red God Of Merseyside saves the day

RAGNAR!!!!

Klavan as the next thor!!

[geoffpayne1992]

I'll be sure to avoid my daily runs down Hackney Wick when that game happens!

That is a very good plan! Although if you are around there on a match day I highly recommend popping into Truman's. They have someone who does some of the best pulled rib rolls I've ever tasted, called the Rib Man. He does hot sauces too which are very good also.

[John Ossie]

If I knew Millwall fans were coming to town I'd wear a protective vest and helmet LOL.
