English Premier League 23/24

Chelsea v Man City was sublime yesterday.
My sports day was insanely good with that game to start the day then the Cowboys and Mavericks both rickrolling teams.

I've been on the other end of that spectrum too much but when it all line sup aces it is glorious.

A great game to watch, but Chelsea still dropped points at home. They have a long way to go to claw their way up the table and qualify for at least Europa League.

Man City v Man U a really fun game right now. Foden such a stud! MC always so good controlling possession but needs to get more out of it.

66th minute and 72 percent possession and 22 to 2 shot difference

Man U crapped the bed hard today. Possession time, shots on goal and on the scoreboard. Just a solid butt kicking. GRRRRR.

Nice easy win for Bournemouth today

Been a wild ride for Chelsea.
Lots of young boys playing and Palmer has been superb but also maddening at times.
League table spot is atrocious, hardware seems a long reach away, but we are living in Wembley.

I honestly do not know what to make of Poch.
We have excellent halves than fizzle.

I think Poch is decent enough, and he's got a big job cleaning up a lot of the previous messes. I think it'd be helpful if your team's owner would (sort of sounds like another owner we know) hire essentially a GM who knows the caliber or players to bring in, or let Poch do it.

They came in with the plan of buying all these 20-year-olds but these guys are just raw talents with very specific skillsets and not used to adjusting to any scheme.
Its looking better very slowly but hard to watch for CFC faithful used to starlets playing only 2nd team mid-week matches.

I believe you'll see the team sell a couple young players to buy dogged veterans over the summer break. Silva can't be the only one who is old enough to hit the ski slopes.

I would imagine so. The wage bill would be far too high otherwise, and Chelsea do need a rebuild.

It is a close battle for the EPL title. Two games left for Man City and one for Arsenal. It is doubtful Man City stumble this close to the end, but strange things can happen.

It not EPL news, the Harry Kane curse is real. It is amazing what Xabi Alonso has done with Bayer Leverkusen.

It really is amazing what Alonso has done. I am curious to see what happens at the top.

Yay for him. He gets to play maybe 5 meaningful games per season now.
What a waste.

That's probably more than he played his whole tenure with PSG.
