Quote from: snoopdog on April 07, 2025, 03:06:04 PMWhat is evident is the fact that the Premier league has never been poorer.
Liverpool aren't a great team but ran away with it.
Sky's over promotion of the PL as the best league in the world is nonsense.


Liverpool have run away with it because City are rebuilding and Arsenal didn't address their striker issue and suffered a few significant injuries. The rest of the league, including Liverpool, have been pretty much the same as last year, when we didn't hear a thing about the relatively "poor" standard of the PL.

No one really said anything either in 2021 or 2023 when Liverpool had their own injury and squad crises derailing their seasons, making things much handier for City.

Something like 13 first team players out last January.
That's just, like your opinion man.

Think you can only play with 11....
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought.

A nil nil draw between a city team on the slide and the worst united team ever, and pundits have went off on the Premier League being dull and boring. It really eats at them to see other clubs do well. Some of the football that the likes of Palace, Newcastle and even Villa have play this year has been a joy to watch (not to mention the obvious performances by Liverpool and Arsenal).

Maybe the over reliance on opinions from ex "big 6" players is coming under threat.

The league isnt much different than any other year in terms of quality. The fact is that many people with biased opinions have lost interest as the status quo is struggling.

Outside of the three promoted teams anyone else can beat the other teams which makes it a good watch still. 

Villa seem to be assembling a really strong squad with Emery able to make 8 changes at weekend and beat a champions league rival still.  If they make CL again could be a big summer for them with City rebuilding, some outgoings at Liverpool and Arsenal shy a central striker as we speak. 

As long as Troy Deeney doesn't make it onto the TV will continue to watch.

Arsenal follow up last weeks 1-1 draw with Everton with another 1-1 draw this time against Brentford this evening.
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

sans pessimism

Villa coming into form at the right time of the season
"So Boys stick together
in all kinds of weather"

Look-Up!

Arsenal can only make 81. If the gunners get over Madrid, CL will be their priority. If they somehow blow a 3 goal cushion, I don't think their subsequent PL performances will be great. Either way, 78 points or lower probably enough for Liverpool now.
Forrest under serious pressure, everyone down to 7th breathing down their necks.
Relegation done and dusted. Leeds and Burnley nearly up. Sheffield Utd can catch them but most likely will be in the playoffs with Sunderland. Other two spots are tight.

Liverpool make hard work of West Ham at home but got the win and are just two wins away to be confirmed as champions now.

Other results
Chelsea 2 Ipswich 2
Wolves 4 Tottenham 2

Looking good for Liverpool. Can win it at home to Spurs now providing they beat Leicester. Can win it sooner if Arsenal bottle any more Premier League games.
Neutral.

Just need Philippe Albert to come on and score the 5th now for Newcastle
