Spurs following up crushing Man City with two draws and then getting battered by Bournemouth (even if the scoreline doesn't show it) sounds like...exactly what you'd expect from Spurs.

It's grim times. I love Ange, and sometimes we look incredible as if we could just run the table. Then, the next week, we can't do anything. The problem is, you can't just keep sacking the manager every 18 months and hope that someone can step in and build something.

Pep and Jose still madly in love with each other. Wholesome.

"Mourinho made a similar gesture when he arrived at Manchester United. Many believe that was the beginning of his decline. Do you see parallels?" asked the journalist.

Guardiola was quick to distinguish himself: "I hope that’s not the case for me. But in the end, we are similar in some ways. However, he won three Premier Leagues, and I’ve won six. So, it’s not quite the same, is it?
Quote:
In his pre-match press conference, the former Chelsea boss was asked about how he was adapting to life in Turkish football when he brought up Guardiola’s comments.

"I want to win, but I want to win cleanly, fairly. If I cannot win cleanly, I prefer to lose. Guardiola said something like this to me yesterday. He won six trophies and I won three. But I won fairly and cleanly. If I lost, I want to congratulate my opponent for being better than me. I don’t want to win by dealing with 150 [sic] cases."

Mourinho referenced the 115 charges brought to Manchester City by the Premier League over alleged breaches of its Financial Fair Play rules, which have been denied by the club.

They've got to get off their hands and deal with the 115. This is beyond ridiculous.

Michail Antonio has been involved in a serious car accident.
I haven't seen the photos but apparently his Ferrari is badly smashed up in them and he may have been airlifted to hospital.

Love city whining about the second yellow on lewis after he lunged in studs up because he only caught the ankle and bottom of chalobahs boots.. such a hard done by club haha. Too bad palace couldn't have grabbed all 3. Just brilliant seeing those cheats fall out of the race early with the other shady unethical petrol state club down in the bottom half.


Jesus Antonio's car looks like pelle lindburghs hopefully he is ok.

Onana is bad. I dont know why anyone would take that United job without guarantees that they could re-shape the squad.

That United team is expensive and comprised of patch-work from a half-dozen different managers.

Onana is actually one of the few players they should probably keep. That was a stinker to let in today, but outside that brutal start last year he's actually been decent. And keeping him makes even more sense when you consider how bad the rest of their team is. Gonna take big bucks to get this train turned around, they have far bigger issues than Onana.

Arsenal are a decent team to watch, but are unlikely to win any competition without a striker.

Well...City and Arsenal held, despite Liverpool not even playing thats not a bad matchday weekend.

Losses would have been better but I can live with draws.
