Liverpool and Manchester United will always be the 2 big clubs in England, unfortunately I think both are going to have to go down the same route as Man City and Chelsea.Originally Posted by Rockerman
Which is sad , but we all want success elementary of where the money comes from .

And that is the problem, as much as we might dislike it the reality is if a country comes knocking who is going to say no. I am old enough to remember Chelsea and city in division 2 ( now called the championship). Neither at anything until they got money and now billionaires are not enough to get you to the top table you will need a country. In fairness, always thought Newcastle had genuine supporters but not a pip about human rights from them. The media in the main turn a blind eye to where money comes from also as the all feed out of the same trough. As much as I don’t like the fact that West Ham cannot compete on equal terms with the rich six in the premiership I appreciate that supporters of lower division teams would envy the resources available to West Ham.I read a fact before the AK game last week that six or seven West Ham players individually cost more than their entire squad……not that it showed

Big game for Brighton tonight, can De Zerbi get them closer to the Europa league?

Haven’t they already qualified for the Europa league? i’m pretty sure they’re safe on goal difference even if they lose tonight and don’t get a win on Sunday against Villa?!

I don’t think they are guaranteed europa league, is it 7th place that goes in to the conference competition and fifth and sixth to the europa league

I heard a draw tonight confirms Brighton for Europa League.
Seems they aren't quite there unless I heard wrong.

Well if this game had been played 2 or 3 weeks ago then it would have been a big and intersting game. But both teams have achieved their objectives now.
Yes they qualified for europe after their last win. They are plus 16 better gd than villa.

Yeah fifth and sixth for Europa league… but a bit confused here… Just heard yer man on Sky say they need a point for it to be confirmed?! Villa are at 58 pts Brighton 61, but even if they lose tonight an Villa win on Sunday Brighton should still qualify in 6th on goal difference, no… am I wrong?

Even if they dont get a point tonight they will still be in the europa league. Villa arn't going to make up a 16 gd.

It might be an open game when there's nothing at stake. Maybe 2-1 to city.
