Isnt it funny how much praise a manager gets when he retires, jst heard jose mourhino saying good things about wenger and hoping that he stays involved in football. Its not that long ago that he was calling him a specialist in failure.

It`s all part of the mind games that go on especially at the big clubs Same thing happened when Ferguson retired.

How many years was Fergie at Utd? Who has the record?
He must have been there longer than 22 years.

Ferguson does. He was Utd manager from November 1986 to May 2013. Wenger took charge at Arsenal in September 1996 so five years less than Fergie.

Liverpool is resting only Firmino and I think it's not right! Klopp should have rest the whole squad, Roma is not easy opponent for Reds

But in the premiership ?

[Barney Rubble]

Well the premiership started in 1992 so sir alex was in charge for 21 years , wenger is in charge for 22 years. Not sure is that what u wanted to know barney.

That kinda answers my question, wasn't sure if the PL started in 91 or 92 - so Leeds won the last first division title in 91 then ?

[Barney Rubble]

Who will win player of the year, de bruyne or salah?

Has to be Mo.....I know fuck all btw

Chelsea beating Southampton in the FA cup was a needed win I think.
Now I think that if Burnley gain 4 points from their last 3 games, it is a guaranteed European Tour next season.

If Leicester win their game in hand, then they will be 6 points behind.
If they are to win all their game, then Burnley will need to require 4 points.

Last games for Burnley:
Brighton - Away
Arsenal - Away
Bournemouth - Home


Last game for Leicester:
Crystal Palace - Away
West Ham - Home
Arsenal - Home
Tottenham - Away

It is going to be tight, but I don't see West Ham, Arsenal or Tottenham giving points away.
Maybe a draw with West Ham.
3 points against Palace.

Burnley to lose against Arsenal, but to beat both Brighton and Bournemouth, and claiming 7th place and Europe.

Leeds won the last first division in 1991/92. Man Utd won the very first Premier League which was in 1992/93.

[westcorklad]

I`m not so sure that Leicester will beat Palace. They are still in the relegation fight and I think they will get at least a draw against the Foxes ,but anyway I think Burnley will finish in 7th place which would be a marvellous achievement. It`s more than 50 years since they last played in Europe so huge credit to Sean Dyche and his squad.
