There is only one as the Highlander said?

There is only one invincible ?

Watford ❤️❤️ ❤️❤️

49!!!

 

They were great. Liverpool has been looking sluggish lately. This time they couldn't turn up the intensity in the second half. Their defense was abysmal.

Watford earned an important win. Congrats!

Hi,

Man Utd have been getting lots of favourable calls lately and may need some more to beat an improving Everton.

Hi,

Everton denied winning goal by VAR. Somethings never change.

Especially since their direct relegation "competitors" also won (2) or drew (1). So they didn't gain ground except against AV.

You are correct, they dug themselves a deep hole, all the way to the bottom.

Hi,

Momentum is the key. There is a possibility that one of the teams near the bottom will hit a run of winning form. Leicester City went on a run one year (14/15)and won it the next year. Watford manager, Nigel Pearson, was Leicesters manager that season which is why I think they have a good chance of surviving.

Hi,

United are big outsiders in the Manchester derby. I might have a small bet on them on the AH as they have more at stake than City who look certain to make the CL.

I thought they had a 2 year ban!

Yes, pending an appeal which at best would make it a one year ban. 5th this year is in the CL next season.

One nil for the Arsenal 

I like that song - but we have heard it to little in the last years   ?

Arteta is a good manager. He is young enough to relate to today's players and very bright. He just needs to have the time and money to improve the team.

Hi,

Whether they are banned or not they want to qualify. Wac had a good weekend financially. I dont know if any of you guys have a bet ? Ederson looked like he overdone it Saturday night.

Man City - Arsenal is postponed because of Covid-19.

Who know maybe all top football is canceled before a week or two

Yeh I have read that all top football maybe cancelled but what has that got to do with Arsenal?

 

Also Arsenal must be the only club that would prefer to play behind closed doors with no fans....  City wouldn't have noticed there were no fans there either....

Hi,

Looks that way, maik. Great shame.

[wacmedia]

Hi,

Well if the games go ahead there are 2 cracking ties this round. Man Utd visit Spurs and there is a Liverpool derby. Let's hope they are on as many of us find sport a nice diversion in these interesting times.

I've just read that the Premier League has been suspended until 4th April......And EFL...So will The Mighty Leeds be crowned Champions!!!??

Hi,

I'd say they will play all the games, eventually. Euro2020 is likely to be next year which creates an opening to finish the leagues in that spot. Leeds would be a useful addition to the PL.

Yep - delaying the Euros for a year seems the best option ... but will all EFL games be played out before some clubs run into financial difficulties? Boing Boig Baggies have invested for an immediate return to the Premiership and there will be many more lower down that may get "Buryed"....

Hi,

Playing to empty stadiums is not an option, except in the PL.  It's a tough call, maybe the crowds will be allowed in ? The Government advisors seem to want most people to get the virus and create "herd immunity".

Herd immunity

Description

Herd immunity is a form of indirect protection from infectious disease that occurs when a large percentage of a population has become immune to an infection, thereby providing a measure of protection for individuals who are not immune

I don't think PL will start again after 4th April. Properly we have seen the last match this season. 

I hope FA will give the title to Liverpool, what they have done this season is amazing. They deserve to be celebrated as champions.

Yep - I tend to agree with your conclusions... but what about relegation?? Villa have a game in hand and the 3 teams above them are only separated from eachother by goal difference...For sure teams have to go down so that Leeds can get promoted!!!

Hi,

Liverpool should be given the title. no question.

Hi,

If the season ends now, I think the most surprising team has been Sheffield United. The most disappointing have been the boys from Aston.
