As usual, an early goal as sometimes these games can end up 0-0 with both teams working harder to cancel the other out than to win the game. Too close to call. 11 minutes ago, Yflab said: Finished 0-0 between Liverpool and Utd. Disappointing but not surprising. Aye, that's my main event wasted.

Any player that rattles in 15-20 goals most season would be key for any team but they have several other players who have stepped up and are getting recognised at international level.

I do keep banging on about Foden at Man City not getting much game time, Mount for Chelsea, another great prospect get's plenty at Chelsea. Oh, 2-0 Leicester, Maddison, another cracking wee player. 42 mins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faraway saint Posted January 19, 2021 Report Share Posted January 19, 2021 Leicester currently sitting proudly at the top of the league I've been saying this for months, the English league is up for grabs this year. Liverpool, drawing TOO many games, at this stage. Man Utd, still a few players short, IMO, of having a side to win the league. Man City, well, a moth ago were miles away but have been stepping on the gas recently, getting quite a few shut outs along with goals, certainly one of the favourites IMO. Spurs, with Jose in charge, who knows, he gets something from players that most managers don't and with Kane, well anything's possible.

If man utd can sort out central defence and not play lindelof and maguire together then they might have a chance Maguire/Bailly probably best they got if big Eric can stay fit. Lindelof better with tuanzebe, and then there is Phil Jones 🤣 Edited January 19, 2021 by Cumbriansaint72 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also Martial only "plays" about 6-8 games a season. It seems Shearer, what a player, shares my opinion it's wide open this season. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/55698337 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, on top form he is top class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could, easily, be a distraction and at the top level it could be enough to see a drop in his form. Anyhow, all speculation, mainly what we see on this forum in many of the threads, some from people with some knowledge, some wild and ill informed. Tonight's matches in the top league, both Manchester teams in action. The games are coming thick and fast right now, possibly a reason City's habit of regularly changing the side is paying off as they are THE form side right now.

It's halfway in the league, a LONG way to go yet. With 5 teams, at least, in the mix, they'll be plenty twists and turns before the seasons decided. Fulham 1-0 United.
