This Slot fella is doomed to failure, has too big of an ego announcing himself as the new manager

City's PL form since the turn of the year:

P18 W15 D3 L0

Regular as clockwork.

Draws with Liverpool and Arsenal. Not sure on the other.

1-1 with Chelsea at home. 


Arsenal will likely look back on that draw against City now, a match they played defensive in and never really pushed for the win.

Dont agree with that any team will take a point at City before game starts bad losses to Fulham and Villa are what has put them in this position. May not be over though, the Aguerooo moment City needed to win against a rank bad QPR team and tried their best to make a meal of it.  West Ham probably owe it to Moyes to put in a performance last day and they do have some quality at top end of pitch.

Maybe so but how the table would had looked going into the final day had Arsenal beaten instead of drawn with City.

Arsenal 88
City 87

It's 2015 since West Ham avoided defeat away to City and have to go back to 2012 since a Moyes managed team got a result in that venue which was 1-1 with Everton. I doubt those records will change this Sunday.

Cork to bate Tipp and the hay won't be saved either.

Clare to scrape past Waterford, purely on the fact they're at home which is a tough place to go, but if Davy can't get Waterford primed for this then there's no hope for Waterford who finish the campaign at Limerick!

The more I think of it, that draw between Waterford and Tipp has bolloxed both of them, although I think Tipp are out of contention after this Sunday anyway, but I can see Waterford ending the round robin on three and even if Tipp did manage to beat Clare on the last day they'd have three points to Clare and Corks four.

Clare would progress to the Munster final on the head to head and Cork get the third spot out of Munster.

Galway and Kilkenny to resume normal service this weekend as Lyng would have booted some serious Kilkenny hole over this week and Dublin will need to really fired up for this one. I might get feisty in Parnell as both wanting to lay down a marker...

Wexford visit the neighbours and as much as the jerseys will be very colourful I don't expect Wexford to slip up in this one.
Carlow may struggle to get two top class performances back to back.

They also made hard work of it 2 years ago when they were 2-0 down against Aston Villa.

One for you Mayo ones - whats the deal with Stephen Coen? From watching Mayo over the years I can't see what he brings to the Mayo team and for an average player imo, he seems to play every single game.

I would agree he seemed to be a bit of a household player at Colleges level and gets regular starts in variety of positions not really sure what his strengths are/ role is within the Mayo setup.

Arsenal loss to Fulham early in the season, fannying around with Partey at right back and Gabriel dropped has come back to bite, the Villa result latterly obviously cost them but Villa were fantastic in the second half and fully deserved the win, Arsenal gassed that second half in the game between the Bayern tie, very fine margins in PL and CL, staying at that level and finding another 1-2% will be difficult, hinges on recruitment as ever

Whats the thoughts on Kerry/Monaghan Kerry have looked off it so far, Monaghan not being talked about at all which makes them a dangerous proposition expect Monaghan to give this a real go but come up short.
