Premier League 2016/2017

Palace on an excellent run should now stave of relegation.

Well luv him or hate him what a job big sam has done at palace, beaten chelsea, arsenal and now liverpool. Super results. Now can they end spurs title hopes. The race for the top 4 goes on and is going to be very close.

They may well get a result against Spurs on Wednesday. As I posted before, Spurs have a much tougher run in than Chelsea and they are surely deflated after their Wembley defeat.
Two big derbies coming up during the next week which, if Arsenal and Man Utd win, will throw the top four race wide open.

Newcastle up, sunderland and boro both going down from the looks of it.

Joey Barton: Burnley midfielder banned for 18 months over betting

I think that the punishment was a little too harsh.
I don't think Football Association like Burnley, they always seems to punish the players much higher than they would for any other club, but we shall know soon enough as there are 53 footballers reported over potential breaches of betting rule.

Chelsea have the advantage of being 4 points clear, but Spurs has the advantage of 7 goal differences more than Chelsea.
If Chelsea slip just the one time, Spurs could have a chance of stealing the title.
It will also be the second year running Spur would take second place if they don't take the title, a bit like a kick in the teeth for them.

It would be nice to see Spurs gain the title, it was the 60's since they last won the top flight.

Well 2nd half just started and it cant be worse than the 1st half , Or could it

Jose wont be happy with fellani after that incident.

You would never know with Jose !!!
He let the argie get to him and paid the price.
Will it cost us in the long run???
We need all the players on hand as a lot of injuries, very stupid by him

Ah shit, they did.
I forgot, they were in second place for a while and end up in third place, Arsenal taking 2nd with 1 point more.

Newcastle back in the pl. Well done to them. Sometimes its not easy to get promoted straight away after being relegated. Well done to rafa, he could have walked away last season but didnt. They are a big club with huge support. Its good that they are back.

Well done indeed by the Magpies and they could still win the Championship title if they win their last 2 games and Brighton fail to win theirs. Benitez has not definitely committed himself to staying in charge for next season though.
