GWT: EPL - Matchweek 31

[Savant]

Love Forest, but I do hope that Villa hangs on because that increases the chance City miss the CL which would be funny.

You know what would be REALLY funny though would be Forest getting 2nd over Arsenal

But yeah, greater good

Yea that might be more immediately funny but it doesn't really matter next year.

City missing the CL would have funnier ongoing impacts.

Meh. I don’t think City missing UCL does much for them. I don’t think it stops any of their transfer plans and it probably helps them in the league because they’ll punt Europa league/just do what Chelsea did and not register their A players for at least the group stages.

The interesting thing to me is how these teams handle CWC because that’s going to be a disaster

What I mean is it would be far runnier to see City playing in the Europa league, regardless of what type of team they field, not that it would actually have financial impacts for them since they'll just make up extra sponsorships to make up the financial impact.

Recession Proof

Speaking of funny, did not realize Spuds were in 16th

 

[GeoRox89]

One day Murillo will score on one of those worldie attempts. Glad they battled back hard in the second half and didn’t just collapse like the Bournemouth game. Too bad they were completely switched off to start the game

 

[AlanHUK]

Honestly I think it was less battling back from us, and more Villa just sitting off with half an eye on the champions league mid week, and it's hard to wrestle momentum back when you've given it up in this league.

Would it? It would be completely meaningless, I certainly wouldn't much care at this point. The individual losses would sting of course, but 2nd or 3rd means nothing

League has been won for weeks and you still can't get us out of your head

Would be so funny if the refs f***ed us all the way down to 3rd instead of just 2nd.

Don’t flatter yourselves I am in transit to vacation. Not much else going on at the moment.

But yeah to me going from the refs cost us 1st, to the refs cost us 2nd; that would be very funny.

The reality is still pretty funny to me though as it is.

Injuries cost us 1st. The refs did their best (and continue to do their best) to help though.

Enjoy vacation!

Thank you! Just a quick trip out of town but no complaints.

 

[Chimaera]

That’s a penalty

 

[KJS14]

Please don't ever compare Konate to Saliba again. He's been very bad his last few games and him trying that in his own box was brain dead.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Sanchez has me on deaths door

 

[Blender]

Chelsea not looking good at all.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Nkunku at #9 means that we have literally zero goal threat

 

[Jack Straw]

It’s clear and obvious to me that this is not clear and obvious.

 

[KJS14]

Liverpool getting carved open even after escaping that penalty claim. VVD complaining about getting beat cleanly lol.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Liverpool getting slapped

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Rough to be a Southampton supporter, they are just awful.

Hope the promoted teams give a better go of it next year

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Feel bad for anyone who watched the first half of Brentford Chelsea

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

That spurs offside goal … insane it was called back

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Jackson on at halftime, following another wretched performance from Nkunku. I think Christo and I have logged the same amount of sprints in the league this year.

 

[HeHateMeFrisbee]

It’s clear and obvious to me that this is not clear and obvious.

It's not going to matter, but this is exactly why it needs to go
