SOCCER - Winter 2016


Dolfan in NYC

Recommended Posts

The mighty Gunners go top and it's up to Leicester City to batter some scrubs tomorrow.

Giroud scores again, he's on form.

A couple of highlights from Graeme Souness. Firstly, when told Ozil has twice as many assists as anyone else this season, he replies "yeah but he's a number ten, he's supposed to do that"

And

"Graeme, will villa turn to jack grealish here?"

"Who?"

Such a weird time for top flight English football. The decline of the great teams makes any match competitive but also means English sides will (and have) strugggle(d) in Europe. The disgusting TV money should fix the latter issue without hopefully ruining the former.

Every weekend has at least two surprising results. Today alone produced a pair of oddities. I'm guessing the schedulers predicted tomorrow's game would have a title contender matched up with a team in a relegation battle though, so that much hasn't changed.

Yeah, but the co-effecient. A deep run by an Italian team in either European contest, and a couple of English teams going out this round, and suddenly there's only three CL spots in the Prem. And as Arsenal don't tend to finish top 2, they really rely on the 4th spot existing.

Kiev's home tie against City will take place "behind closed doors" due to UEFA sanctions. And if you believe that one, I have some lovely oceanfront property in Kansas you might take a shine to.
