    And I still love the way Bielsa sets his team up to play. They won't get relegated either,
    That’s not saying much with the bottom 4 this year. 

    Exciting yes, but I still think they’re underachieving.

    Shame.  The dildo pedlers will have to use plenty of lube tonight!

    How are they underachieving? They have nine senior first teamers left and have had any number missing for the duration. Typical of this is the fact that Bamford scored 17 PL goals for them last season and hasn't started a game since September. Even in those circumstances, they are still three points above Everton.

    Not seen the incident or context, but there are 3 Leeds players behind the last defender.

    Why on earth did Bowen not use his head at the end??

    The position of the goalkeeper has nothing to do with the offside. The fact that two opposition players aren't between the player struck by the ball and the goal does however.

    Same. The 23 effectively becomes like the keeper and Cresswell becomes the last defender, therefor two players offside right?

    If the goalkeeper is the second-last opponent and you are behind him, you will be deemed as offside. However, if there are 2 players behind the goalkeeper, you will only be offside if you are ahead of the second-last opponent.

    Aside from the top 3 clubs, i think any team in the league will struggle if you take 2 of its 3 best players out.

    Where would West Ham be if Rice and Antonio had been missing all season?

    Especially the main striker, e.g. Everton missing Calvert-Lewin badly

    I love watching Brighton.
    they always play their way rather than adjusting for the team they face. Good passing football.
    more than holding their own v Chelsea and got the equaliser they deserved

    Proving to be a right nuisance for teams at the top this season

    Really impressed with Brighton again. Webster has had a stormer. They really need a goalscorer tho.
  • Chelsea now have 11 points from their last 9 games. It seemed impossible a few weeks ago and i'm sure it won't come to it but if they aren't careful they might end up in a fight just to get top 4. 

    9 points clear of Arsenal who have 3 games in hand.
    11 clear of Spurs who have 5 games in hand.
    12 clear of United who have 3 games in hand.

    I know Arsenal have to play Spurs and those 3 sides will also drop points but if they do go on a run then Chelsea could get reeled in. Arsenal and Spurs also don't have any European games to manage in the second half of the season.

    Tuchel moaning that his team are tired, never seem to be tired when they win though.

    Leicester v Spurs been a great game so far. Spurs look a good side and Kane certainly having a fine game. His hold up and link up play is so good.

    They’ll be absolutely spewing if they lose this. They are absolutely crying out for someone else to chip with a goals. 26 attempts they’ve had.

    FUCKING HELL!

    What a finish to the game!

    There were 5 minutes added on for stoppages. 
    They were 2-1 down after 95’ 01”

    That is insane!!!
  • The moment at 2-1 when Lookman had a clear shot at goal and Barnes decided to not pass!
  • Switched on just after Leicester scored their second. They must feel sick now.

    God I fucking love football for moments like that :)
    Thats was up there with Moura in the CL Semi Final

    Was surprised Glenn gave Maddison MOTM.  It would have been a travesty for Kane to not have been on the winning side, he was back to his best tonight.  He finally looks fit.
