'Even allowing for inflation, this thread is not worth 198 Terry Francises' - EPL 2017-18

every time someone mentions pards, i get keats stuck in my head

away away! for i will fly to thee
not charioted by lambert or by pards
but on the viewless wings of moyesy
though the dull brain perplexes and retards

...that kind of thing

Yeah re-alph, i would maybe burrow deeper and see if any of the francaises have geographical links or similar to the cité of limoux and the surrounding mountains, perhaps pardieu googled in a chummy getting to connaitre les lads fashion and happened upon yr cave drawings, sparking a crisis of intricate but catastrophic synaptic flares that can only lead to a startling regression from alan pardieu, smooth chinned and suited head of marketing and strategy at le tûne thru bearded alan pardew the coach (villa) to scruffy al what helps the kids (notts county) to neanderth-al in a loincloth (tactics at stoke obv)

mild applause for nick tempered with frustration at not finding apposite pun for 'queen-moon'

Palace going down should help see one of the last Archie Leitch stands in the country through to its centenary (tho not ad old as fulham's iirc)

so it's pretty much a lock that salah breaks the single season scoring record right?

And yet it's still odds on kdb player of the year. Ok they're gonna win the league but mo is having an unprecedented season

it's sad he was a runner up

Salah has been brilliant but I don't think at the level of, say, Suarez in the season where Liverpool very nearly won the title.

KDB has been the best player in the league this season, which isn't to do Salah down at all but he's been the driving force in their title run. Take him out of the team and I'd not sure they'd be winning it, or at least not by such a ridiculous margin.

Meanwhile Newcastle, who don't have a game this weekend, have taken it upon themselves to play a friendly against Antwerp. It consists of three halves of 45mins each.

Lol at the fact that these two players were able to just drift away from Chelsea without anyone batting an eyelid.

^^especially this

Agree Suarez was something else but tbh he's probably the most exciting player I've ever seen for Liverpool. Salah's not as gifted as Suarez but his ability combined with his sheer relentless persistence are insane right now

Having mané and, in particular, firmino alongside doesn't hurt either

Matt u can't have 3 halves pls correct

Hoap these exciting attacking players have something to spare for the world cup, but who am i kidding, the star of the world cup will be some tunisian guy on loan at FC Sion from Southampton

think the exciting attacking players might struggle in front of a shit centre midfield and a worse back row

Do belgium have that? Remember they've not got the Wilmots Handicap no more. Idk much abt egypt but i'd guess they have the beating of saudis and russia.

Do hull city have a korean guy who hasn't quite nailed down a starting place in two seasons at the club? Golden boot imo

Hoap these exciting attacking players have something to spare for the world cup

If City manage to win the league at the earliest possible point, their players will be pretty much walking through the last few weeks of the season, Champions League notwithstanding. Nice long break ahead of the World Cup, probably allowed to bring their own toys and games to the training ground, that sort of thing.

Kinda hope this all happens before we play them tbh.

we've got them in the penultimate prem game/their last home game, so they might want to put on an exhibition, but hopefully we'll be facing a coked-up/pissed up hologram xi incapable of doing it by then.

Some great photos here: https://www.theguardian.com/football/gallery/2018/mar/20/the-game-football-through-the-lens-of-stuart-clarke-in-pictures

Those are great. And he captured our very own Calzino!

Full kit pushing a pram is a look.

Man Utd to discuss ideas for improving Old Trafford atmosphere

Oh I have an idea...

Song sheets and continental-style 'cheerleaders' with megaphones are among the ideas being discussed in an effort to improve the atmosphere at Manchester United's home games.

Just give Mourinho the megaphone and let the apocalypse commence.

Full kit wankee

beating huddersfield = equivalent to week-long coke binge

Great photos in that collection, though I feel like the Guardian have run that, or an extremely similar gallery before.

how do i deal w a 9-y-o arsenal fan who is showing signs of liking tottenham

real q

(note: i have no dog in this fight)

Who cares? They're the same.

during the first season under moyes, one of my nephews went from wanting loads of man united stuff for his birthday to everything spurs by christmas :(

he's still tottenham btw, he's a lost cause now

City playing football of the gods in their first half, have to say

against a midfield of Rooney and Schneiderlin...

Nevertheless.

Be fair, they're only 44 points ahead of 9th best team in England, Everton.

This is unexpected.

Very unexpected.

I enjoyed the shot of the little Chelsea kid looking furious.

Bringing Kane on at 3-1 doesn't seem smart though.

I'm with my gf's Chelsea supporting family, this is glorious

Vertonghen's face after potentially destroying Hazard's World Cup.

Pards out

lol you smalltime wankers what is the fucking point lie down and shut up

it's funny how the effect of spending £45m in the summer was completely negated by the formidable dampener duo of Pulis/Megson. W Brom won about 4 in a row at the start of the season, before they could exert their influence.

“The Albion? That would piss a few people off wouldn’t it?" said McCarthy. "But you know me, I like pissing people off.”

Best bit about that story is Pards ringing Megson up to complain he'd done too well in his caretaker stint and had robbed Pardew of his new manager bounce.
