Sky are reporting that the contract that Tuchel us expected to sign is for 18 months with an option for a further year and not the 4.5 years previously mentioned0

After conversations between the PGMOL and IFAB they have looked at the offside rule and set a new interpretation.
Basically Man City goal against Villa wouldn't stand if it was scored tonight, it would now be ruled out for offside
So @golfaddick you can stop looking now because any future incidents will be offside as the rule has been changed2 -

Or they realised how ridiculous the goal was but can't change the past, so got together and decided that there won't be a repeat going forward.ForeverAddickted said:

If Sam Allardyce maintains his record of never being relegated I'll eat my hat. West Brom are dreadful. They've got worse since he took over!!3

If Sheff United and West Brom were not two of the worst PL teams of all time this may have been Palace's year for relegation. Shame.2

Man C are ripping them apart .. as you'd expect from a team that has cost lots of £millionsGravesend_Addick said:If Sam Allardyce maintains his record of never being relegated I'll eat my hat. West Brom are dreadful. They've got worse since he took over!!0 -

Notice that Man City took Foden off on 52mins, thought: "Ouch" has he played poorly
Then noticed they were already 4-0 up at that stage0 -
Liverpool now 7 points behind City!1

Bilic managed a draw against Man City. Big Sam has come in and tightened things up.Lincsaddick said:

Can’t knock Arsenals league form0

Just realised Liverpool could be 8th after games in hand have been played by Spurs, Villa and Everton.stoneroses19 said:Liverpool now 7 points behind City!1 -

the current bottom 3 once more emphasise the difference, the gap in class between the mega rich prem and most of the rest0

They have only played 1 decent team in Chelsea in that recent league form tho before tonight.ValleyGary said:Can’t knock Arsenals league form
Beat Newcastle
Drew to Palace
Beat West Brom
Beat Brighton
Beat Chelsea
Before that
Lost to Everton
Drew to Southampton
Lost to Burnley
Lost to Tottenham
Lost to Wolves
Drew to Leeds
Lost to Villa
Thats their league matches, their recent run of form coincides with playing easier opposition.
Man Utd
Wolves
Villa
Leeds
Man City
There next 5 see how their form is then3 -
Shame - thought Southampton would have got at least a point from that3

Yes by form I meant last 5 games as that’s the usual form table. I fancy them to take maximum points off all apart from the Manchester clubs.paulie8290 said:

"The Mark Hughes manoeuvre" I believe it's known as.2 -
I get you meant the last 5 games, I was just saying in those 5 games they have played 4 of the bottom 8, so there good form in those 5 games could also just be because of the opposition they have facedValleyGary said:

Agree mate. I’m glad he’s started playing the youth tho. Saka is one hell of a talent.paulie8290 said:

John Stones stats this season have been incredible. He has played a total of 1,379 minutes (the equivalent of more than 15 full games) and whilst he's been on pitch City have conceded just two goals. In his 18 appearances this season City have won 17 and drew 0-0 against United.
Yes Dias has made a tremendous difference but if we are going to hold Stones accountable for all those mistakes he regularly used to make then at least we should acknowledge how he has now succeeded in eliminating them.4 -

I know why he's been sacked, but that doesn't mean they couldn't turn it round.SELR_addicks said:
He's been sacked because they're 9th after spending £200m+Chris_from_Sidcup said:4.5 year deal for Tuchel, he's signing a contract to summer 2025.
Still feel Lampard deserved a bit more time though. They went on a 17 game unbeaten run from September to mid-December. Since then they've lost 5 out of 8 in the league, but their next 2 games are at home and they've got Sheff Utd and Newcastle soon after that, so although they're struggling he could've easily turned it around. Also still in the CL and have Barnsley away in the FA Cup 5th round.
He's basically been sacked because of an 8 game bad spell. Bowyer would've had no chance if Abramovich was our owner.
He's been sacked because he has the lowest win percentage over Roman's entire ownership.
Hardly just 8 games. Anyone could have seen his spell at Derby and known that he was bang average tactically. Out of his depth and it showed in every big game.
Was he bang average and out of his depth last season, or when they went 17 games unbeaten this season, or when they won 4-0 away to Sevilla to win their CL group?
United stuck by Solskjaer earlier in the season and now look at them? If Abramovich was City owner he's probably have sacked Guardiola a couple of months ago when they were sitting in the bottom half at the end of November.
I agree 100% with this post about Frank Lampard who will be successful in Management somewhere else if he isn't put off by the usual out come at Chelski.
Showing my age now but Ferguson would have been sacked at Man United if Abramovich had been the owner after losing to Charlton 2-0 and playing a young Sharp at full back where he was shite. They were clueless that day and the chewy man would have had the tin tack before Mark Robins saved his bacon with a vital goal some time later.
Little Paul Williams was excellent that day against United.
Ps. Graham Taylor tried doing the same with Lee Sharp at full back for England and he was still shite.
Decent winger on his day but Lee was over shadowed by his mate Ryan Giggs.0 -
Another variant of the footballing virus has been found at the top end of the Premier League , this one is considered more dangerous than the earlier versions Liverpool19 and Spurs20 .
It will make you wheezey, light headed and sickness is guaranteed , WestHam21 it’s been called and has appeared since the turn of the new year .
Hopefully Scientists in Manchester will have a solution but stay alert , stay home , wash hands and be very wary of westham21 🦠3 -
City are absolutely flying right now.
Dias and Stones are rocks.
After an iffy first season, Cancelo has turned into one of the worlds best full backs.
Gundogan is in the form of his life.
Foden is getting better all the time.
And all this is with Sterling way off his previous seasons form and Aguero hardly having had a kick all season.3 -
At the moment it looks like City's title to lose. When you're that solid at the back, even without Aguero and KDB they've got more than enough to keep winning gamesChris_from_Sidcup said:City are absolutely flying right now.

Not the greatest opposition granted, but City’s movement on and off the ball was something else last night.1 -
Apparently he completed more passes in the final 3rd than the whole West Brom team did yesterday.Macronate said:

Cancelo might be brilliant going forward, but is allowed to by players elsewhere covering. And because the opponents are West Brom0

First league game and Tuchel has dropped arguably Chelsea best 2 players this season, who both happen to be young English talents.
Mount and James
Reckon both are gonna struggle with game time under Tuchel1
