SOUTHAMPTON ARE STILL A BIG CLUB! The Premier League, 2014/15

I bet De Gea skips all his lessons and spends the time roaming around in Sainsbury's like an overgrown teenager.

Sports ppl from outside the European Union need to have a verified level of English or they lose their visa status.

Dublin has been awarded three group games and a round of 16 fixture at Euro 2020, with London to host the semi-final and final.

The Aviva Stadium will be the venue for three group games and a last-16 fixture in the 24-team tournament.

Wembley Stadium will host the semi-finals and final. London emerged as favourite for the final over Munich after the German FA effectively agreed to stand aside in exchange for support for their Euro 2024 bid.

There was some consolation for Munich; it will host three group games and a quarter-final, along with Baku, St Petersburg and Rome.

Seven other cities, Copenhagen, Bucharest, Amsterdam, Bilbao, Budapest, Brussels and Glasgow, will also stage three group games and a last 16 fixture.

Euro 2020 is being spread across Europe to mark the 60th anniversary of the tournament.

it should always be done this way but fair dues to the fai

clinical strike, villa

oh nice stuff

West Ham two up in seven minutes.

that was a bit of a pity, we looked pretty good out there for the first 30 mins or so. calamity 3 minutes and it was done and dusted. Lambert did fuckall to change it up in the second half, we didn't chase the game whatsoever, spent most of the time sitting outside our own area letting Arsenal play keep-ball.

Felt really sorry for Carlos Sanchez too, he played very badly tbf but man did he ever lose the crowd quickly. Was astonished that Lambert left him on for the whole thing, his every touch was getting jeered from about 20 mins and it clearly rattled him, he gave the ball away almost every time he received it. In the end Cleverly just had to come back and hold his hand, offering the short pass every time. Sanchez might as well have not been there.

The change that Lambert did make was to bring on Grealish for Weimann at half-time which was actually a huge backwards step. Really demonstrated how vital Weimann's running is to knit everything together, Agbonlahor was just so isolated in the second half that we weren't able to get anything happening going forwards.

Ciaran Clark remains an irredeemably useless cunt, never want to see him again

What the fuck Liverpool? I'm glad I'm not watching it.

In the end Cleverly just had to come back and hold his hand

fuck he must have been shit

lalana more like banana :D

Adam Lallana doesn't look like Adam Lallana without his facial hair.

motd highlights somehow made qpr look a quarter decent.... make no mistake, we are fucked all over again

Ferdinand was outsprinted, easily, by Crouch at one point in the first half. Playing him as part of a central defensive pairing, unless it's next to someone as good as Vidic, is madness: no pace; no concentration; no physical presence. He appears to have lost everything and to just be going through the motios.

Fer only knows how to run forward: can't get above a jog going back. Isla, brought in specifically to play as an attacking wing back, is having mares every week having to play as a conventional full back.

Relegation, here we come, again.

aw

seriously made crouch look like zlatan yesterday

the whole timeline of the 352 experiment is so shambolic you could cry... sign players specifically with it in mind (don't school them particularly on it though oh no), then fudge it playing dunne instead of onuoha, players inevitably panic and get walloped and truculent, decide to go back to a 4 but sell the popular solid specialist right back (who worked his bollocks off to get you promoted) the day before...

no one knows what the fuck they're doing, arry just relying on the expensive talent to maybe fluke something game to game

spurs: seventy nothing passes, lose it, wba one long ball past our lathering centre halves, chance on goal.

repeat until poch out

three good goals and an absolutely dogshit penalty decision from Clattenburg in the Leicester-Utd game

haha oh man wait

Spurs haven't had a shot on target since Sunderland.

3-3! Leicester had a questionable penalty, now Cambiasso's just got the equalizer.

we're passing ourselves to death, which is really a novel approach. management to achieve stats to justify shit performances.

and paulinho is dogshit

Jesus Christ we're shooting practice for west brom under Irvine at our place, this has been a serious three game low imo

poch out.

4-3 to leicester. wtf.

The date of the LvG vs Moyes poll gets closer!

wow

awful defending. vardy's terrorized the utd defence all half.

Good grief

poch burying this result obv

swapped Sandro Thudd and Caulker for Chiriches Paulinho and Capoue and lost money

never mind bale/modric tbh

5-3 to Leicester. Incredible.

across the league I'm kinda developing a distaste for managers actively fucking up entire squads of players I should be enjoying

Spuds would be okay with an actual genuinely good striker now. Completely overreliant on Eriksen and even fucking Chadli for actual goals.

As a Leicester-born I was ecstatic watching today, greating seeing Vardy show a proper audience how good he can be, and lol at Lineker swearing his joyful arse off on Twitter to celebrate.

if there was any question before today, there's your answer... qpr are definitely down, i am saying it after 5 games

conference won't know what hit it next season tbf

spurs won't be OK until we get an actual defence and get back an actual midfield another long season of shit ahead until we get in another no-doubt cretinous motivator type, reset and piss it all away again.

jimmy floyd can stay imo

Manchester United stars slammed the substitution of Angel di Maria during a fiery dressing-room inquest after their shocking 5-3 defeat at Leicester.

Di Maria, who had scored an early contender for Barclays Premier League goal of the season to put United 2-0 up, was substituted when the score was 3-3.

During scenes described by one source at the King Power Stadium as ‘very heated’, a United player was heard to say: ‘Why the f*** did we substitute Di Maria?’

I presumed it was a fitness thing, ADM adjusting to the pace of the EPL. Didn't seem particularly odd.

It probably was fitness related but I mentally conceded defeat as soon as he went off. Funny that the Utd players did too

neverending shootout at Anfield!

and Liverpool win it 14-13

quite glad mboro went to extra time and an epic shootout; we've got them on saturday

Chris Smalling injured in training, which means Marcos Rojo is Utd's only available centre-back for the weekend

doesn't bode well... play blind as a cb perhaps?

him or Rooney I guess
