Honestly, the main issue with Spurs (aside from the year they spent $0), has been horrible recruiting. They spent money on players like Ndombele and Lo Celso and they were both busts. There are a lot of players who've come in and been completely underwhelming. I don't know if that's all Daniel Levy or whether that's guys like Steve Hitchen, but it's pretty pathetic.
Anyway, it would be great to see Chelsea have an actual budget and not just buy whoever they want with dozens of loans out as well. It would also be great if the new owners didn't want to pay players to play elsewhere and they sold guys like Broja, Gallagher and the like. Probably wishful thinking, but it would be good to see.

The right thing to do is obviously continue with the show of support every game for the rest of the season and beyond.

Chinese rights holders have told the Premier League they will not broadcast English top-flight matches this weekend because of the league's planned shows of support for Ukraine, the BBC has learnt.

Unfortunately won't last. Chinese TV will threaten not to renew and demand an apology and that will be that.

The touch by Foden to get it past Lindelof was sensational.

Harry Maguire letting himself get bullied off a 50/50 by De Bruyne sums him up pretty well.

0 Shots in anger in the second half.
I wasnt asking for much, maybe just a draw? No dice.

And why are they advertising for 'EXPO 2020' in Dubai? Are they aware of what year it is?

Expo 2020 doesn't end until March 31, 2022. A bit like the Tokyo Olympic Games taking place a year later than scheduled.
What a paddling Manchester City just put on Manchester United. Men against boys.

Funny thing is I thought United were decent in the first half, but they got completely crushed in that second half. In addition to Maguire being ass, Wan-Bissaka was arguably even worse.

The possession stats in the last fifteen minutes was 92-8 for City. I don't think I've ever seen such a massive difference. Ruben Dias was out for City and I really can't see Liverpool catching up, as good as they're playing.

That is a grim looking table for United.
Arsenal leap-frogged them into 4th with 3 games in hand.

And United's next two PL games are Spurs and Liverpool, so they might be in a dog fight to even make Europa League at this point.

Yeah, if Spurs dial down 'being Spurs' to a reasonable 11 then United might have to be content with playing their Top XI in the Cariboo Cup.
Gotta give props to Arsenal though, just grinding out results and to be sitting in 4th with 3 games in hand on United and West Ham? Thats impressive.
I think its finally okay to say that its theirs to lose. A team has finally more or less come up and claimed 4th and unless something drastic happens United will be playing in Europe on Thursdays...if at all.

Everton are doing their absolute best to get dragged down into the bottom three. This is shocking to watch.

Didn't some of their supporters say that they would rather lay down for Man City and get relegated than to see Liverpool lift the title?
Today's result is what they deserve

I didnt watch it yet, I might peruse it a little later because, well, who doesnt love seeing Everton get their asses kicked? Even if it is Spurs doing the ass kicking.
That being said, Spurs have games to make up and they just got Max points out of this one.
I mean...that was one comprehensive beat-down.
