What on earth are West Brom doing?

Just sacked Darren Moore. They're in 4th place.

This suggests issues in the middle. Dembele/wanyama I guess.

I know they're incredibly **** at home, heck they couldn't even beat Ipswich, but this makes zero sense whatsoever unless he's completely lost the dressing room, which I doubt

I was going to ask what's up with Sane, because I prefer seeing him on the pitch to the bench, but forgot City still can only start with 2/3 of Mahrez, Sterling and Sane. Sick.

lol Spurs. Whoever wins tomorrow is finishing 3rd. I really hope this doesn't involve Lingard doesn't scoring and dancing on our pitch again though.

Title race back on. Taking sterling off for sane after 27mins and losing 1-0 is looking to be a mistake

We are ****ed. Still like Arsenal’s chances to **** it up even more, but United are concerning even if they have been sunrunning. Chelsea are just confusing so who knows.

I am not as worried about any of them as I am about how **** we are. We have been terrible and since Kane’s return we’ve arguably been worse.

Don't need to worry about JLingz, he didn't travel.

538 have Arsenal at 35%, but if they lose tomorrow I'd imagine that drops to like 15%. Probbaly about a 40% swing in CL equity tomorrow, about as close to a "playoff" game we've seen in a while.
I remember how great that spurs/city game for with was 7ish years ago.

Double jeopardy rule is naughty

United are sunrunning now just like spurs were to start the season.

Though I live here now, I was visiting Chicago for that game. Had literally landed that morning from Vegas (a brief excursion from a multiweek trip here) and got to the apartment, showered, then to the pub on basically no sleep.

Was a really surreal experience when Crouch scored, because I was both beyond tired and half pissed, and thus unsure if it was real.

Remember vividly staggering out of the bar afterwards and singing Spurs songs to myself wandering along Irving Park road before heading home.

xG suggests that arse spuds and mun are all pretty much equally full of ****. interesting thing about mun is their goal tallies on both ends are fairly in line with expectation but their xPts are massively out of whack, presumably due to a million wins by a 1 goal margin. i suspect this is even more fluky than running like god on on xG, cos at least if u got expert strikers or whatever then part of the xG runhot may be repeatable indefinitely

xG combined with highly expert eyetest suggests arse should receive the bernie madoff award for fraudulent activity. can barely remember them outplaying anyone except spuds that one time

Arse over performance has largely been on the road. Playing negative football and binking wins vs sides they should steamroll early in the year.

80% of arsenal games have fallen into one of two categories this year:
Play an even game but win because of great play from lacazette/aubameyang
Play an even game or outplay their opponent but drop ppints because xhaka or mustafi ****ed up

The other 20% is decisive wins or losses. Only the Chelsea/spurs wins were legitimate wins vs good teams, but the teams around them only have 1 or 2 more legitimate wins against good teams themselves. The draw vs pool they played really well too.

There’s no way xhaka has ever ****ed anythingbup

Very windy today - might back the Burnley at 20/1

Do Burnley have a lot of players out though? Hopefully the pitch is dry too but then again it may be too snowy.
