Chairman Mao Posted February 28, 2016 Report Share Posted February 28, 2016 Incredible scenes, Arsenal have bottled it again against a Man U full of 12 year olds. Man City are clearly going all out to lose in the Champions League semis 8-0 on aggregate vs. Munich so its down to these two. Would be funny if LVG overtook Man City and Guardiola was welcomed to the UK with Europa League football Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciderbeans Posted February 28, 2016 Report Share Posted February 28, 2016 I said Tottenham a while ago and got laughed at. Look at their goal difference compared to Leicester. Will count for an extra point come end of season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Coach Posted February 28, 2016 Report Share Posted February 28, 2016 Was in the pub during the United game. Saw a bloke, probably in his late 50s or early 60s. United cap and scarf on. Screaming when United scored and talking about how good "we looked". Plastic fans really get to me as they will never know what it's like to truly support a team. This is one of many reasons why I despise United. I think Leicester will win the league personally. If not, definitely Tottenham as I think MP is a fantastic head coach.

22A Posted February 28, 2016 Report Share Posted February 28, 2016 I'm not interested in teams from North London or the North West, but I'm glad Utd beat the Gunners today. Why? Yesterday after the results came in and the latest table compiled, the studio experts announced "Leicester have a five point lead at the top, but this will be reduced to two when Arsenal win tomorrow". They didn't say "if", but "when". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Mourinho comes in the summer what chance their academy players then? Also £350 m on new players in last 2 seasons seems to indicate academy not the first priority. Using academy players has been somewhat forced on LVG by circumstances. That they've done well makes a bit of a mockery of huge transfer fee spend, in the same way Leicester's success has to other big spenders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with all of that but to be honest, I was thinking more about England, take Manu out of the equation over the years, other prem academies have supplied little or none. LVG has undoubtedly bought some shite and i'm not so sure SAF and Sir Bobby or Manu are over keen on Mourinho to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The next best for doing that are probably Southampton or Spurs I should think. Maybe West Ham too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome To The Jungle Posted February 28, 2016 Report Share Posted February 28, 2016 Rashford could become a good England player one day. For all LVG's faults he has given top flight football to a fair few young, English players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't mind that at all. Would rather a club like Leicester got into the competition and struggled than the likes of United, Arsenal, Chelsea every year. The 4th Champions League spot is only a loss to those clubs - England will benefit from seeing a club outside of the same boring clubs in the Champions League.

ciderup Posted February 28, 2016 Report Share Posted February 28, 2016 AS a young 'un, I remember Spurs smashing 'them' 9-0 and have always had a soft spot for them since so would be delighted to see them win the Prem. I was working for HP when they sponsored Spurs so was lucky enough to go to WHL on a freebie a few times. Don't get me wrong, I'm City all day long but my Premier League allegiance ****il we get there) is definitely with Spurs. As someone who has been to and loved the Dortmund experience however, I am split as to who I want to win their European tie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
