just like you, i havent said anything about jesus' finishing, which obv is atrocius.
jesus has a good game every 2-4 months and arsefans start hyping him up everytime. then he does absolutely nothing for months again.
Arsenal will need a pretty insane run if they want to win it. Still have
@City
@Spurs
@utd
@west ham
@Brighton
@Wolves
We have
@Villa
@Utd
@west ham
City
@Liverpool
@spurs
@brighton.
Also 2 points to make up on us and 3* on city. I can see why the books don't like them much.
City have to be big favorites right now.
Arsenal are long shots still but after the losses to West Ham and Fulham it was very close to 0%. Going from like 2% to maybe 12% is pretty big.
I'm just happy we sent off Klopp in style
City walking it if Rodri/KdB/Haaland stay fit. If not then Arsenplop has a shot
At what point does Poch look vulnerable? I know they’ve been a bit unfortunate with some of their results but this is quite bad given the money they’ve spent.
The question is do you give him another season?
They are still in the domestic cups, one a final. However performance wise its been all over the place. Also selection is seemingly made with a random number generator

Ya city > liv > arse seems correct odds wise. 15-20% for arsenal seems right, but with all 3 teams extremely close in team strength those odds can swing wildly on any unexpected results. In terms of schedule strength liverpool have the easiest and citys/arsenals are pretty close.
2016/17 city also is just ahead of this years arsenal. No other team besides pep city has had a better npxg against per game than this years arsenal so far since xg was tracked (.695) that i can find going back to 14/15 season.
I imagine 04-05 chelsea is probably up there conceding only 15 unless they had like some sick defensive heater.

It will be very interesting to see what happens with him. Does Poch failing at Chelsea boost Potter’s stock at all? Or, is this team so haplessly put together that basically anyone will fail?

From my perspective, the inconsistent results and performances mean he gets another year, because I hate Chelsea.
as a chelsea fan, i'd give poch another year.
i generally think the short term expectations on chelsea by pundits and fans are extreme. what other modern team had their club trashed by an international event completely outside of their own control and then were expected to finish 4th in the league 18 months later? after having to let talent walk for free because the government refused to allow them to resign their own players?
i think they need to raise 100mil in sales this summer which should be fairly easy.
reevaluate at the end of next season and move on if need be.
eta- i'm not trying to say that chelsea are a "victim" or anything like that. i hope it doesn't come across that way. you live by the dirty money you die by the dirty money, i just think the expectations of the comeback this quickly are too lofty.
It wasn't Trent's lack of fitness that allowed Martinelli to run rings around him
If Man City score before the half hour, this could be a cricket score
That cricket score will include a wicket down..
Actually, the whole phrase is utter bs, isn't it.
1-0 is a cricket score if the opener gets a single to start things off.
lol city
Flekken already has 6 saves and an assist in half an hour.
6 FPL points so far.
17 attempts in first half. Feel pretty safe saying this will not hold.
KDB is such a cheat code
Foden gonna Haaland
lol ederson
keepers get away with everything
To the poster that once compared sir phillip foads to jesse lingard, a thousand years of shame unto your lineage. You know who you are

The best defence =/= the best npxg. Npgx is one metric you can use to measure how good a defence is, but there are many others - not least how good the midfield/attack are.
Also, can you link the full table so we ca see how many teams are on 0.7?
Shut up nerds.
We got the best defence cause Saliba and Gabriel are awesome. Kiwior showed he has a potential to jump into big games and actually defend unlike Zinchenko.
Ben White has also been excellent since hitting solarium and becoming Ben Orange.
