Today's Football 2017-18 Season

[Toast]

yes city, £45 from a £2 6 game accy, i'm back.

Wow, how did you pick that result out mate ?

 

[Jamo Martinez]

Can City do it on a cold, wet night at Stoke?

Seems like a big fat yes. Seemingly without breaking sweat.

 

[Toffee in Jandals]

Silva immense. City 3 wins from the title.

Wouldn't like to be playing them next. Oh wait a minute..

Maybe they'll slip up against us, just to keep the title race interesting

Playing like that ? We can dream..

It’s like he’s suddenly entered another level, which is pretty impressive seeing as he was at the absolute top already.

Since when did he score goals?!

He's always scored regularly for Spain, which has been a source of mild frustration for city fans. Very mild though. You can't really complain about him not scoring when he's fantastic otherwise. He does seem to have actually improved this season, which is pretty impressive.

One win in seventeen league games. Sacking Pellegrino is not without justification.

Just noticed we play Southampton at home and West Ham away in our final two league games. Wouldn't it be brilliant if we won both, relegating both clubs after each result.

Remind me. Who did they beat in that wonderful run?

 

[Toffee in Jandals]

West Brom at the start of February actually. If you're alluding to the 4-1 at home v us, that was the 18th game ago

Really? That nightmare seems so recent.

Really? That nightmare seems so recent.

I thought so too. That said, there's been a few nightmares this season...

I was thinking this today actually. This is probably unlikely but not as much, as you see players like Carrasco, Oscar, Pelle, moving to China, but could you guys imagine the outrage in this country, if Harry Kane decided against a Real Madrid move or staying at Spurs, and decided to move to China to play his football? I do remember he was linked with China some time ago as well. Imagine if this happened.

They'd have to pay some astronomical fee mind, with the tax etc

Its been great in work today, surrounded by Southampton fans.
All giving opinions on who their next boss will be.
Hearing the names, Strachan and Mark Hughes being mentioned fondly.

Super stuff. I hope they beat Wigan in the cup this weekend and get to wembley. Then play someone boss.

Don't really fancy either of these CL games tonight

The United one will be interesting, if not for the football. I always think a team is on ropey ground if they don't get an away goal in the first leg.

Maureen will park the bus and hit them on the break, I reckon they'll win 2-0.
