Except its Liverpool. If anyone is fixing a match it would be against us.

I was really excited for a bit. But I should have known better.

Lol, oh yes, poor Liverpool. If there's one thing they say about Liverpool it's that they can't seem to catch a break.

Because why fix a 3rd division match in Italy or some random tennis one

When you can fix what was literally the most watched sporting event in the world for that day, with a player who is on something like 80k a week....

Okay, come now, think about this critically.

The only reason to fix a match like this would be to win money gambling on a bet that West Ham would win. You're not going to make any cash betting on a Liverpool win here.

Norwich beating Leicester ... this league never fails to surprise me.

Leicester still has a bit of a cushion with regards to a top 4 finish, but if United and/or Spurs can string together some results it may slip away from them.

I think that Wolves are actually the 3rd best team in the league this season and should be able to get into CL, unless they leave too much in EL this year with a relatively short bench.

Alexander-Arnold is the worst player on the pitch by some margin. He should have been brought off

with our luck, some kid we've never heard of before will come on and score a quick hattrick for Pool. It's just the hell we're all living in.

Watford deserved it, they were by far the better side today.

they too, obviously ... and Sheffield either way, I think there's two top 4 spots to play for now. Both Leicester and Chelsea have dropped enough points to make this a race.

battle for relegation is also going to be fascinating. Two of Brighton, West Ham, Bournemouth, Watford and Villa are probably going down.

Quite the lineup for Spurs this morning. I felt like this was going to be tough anyway, and now I don't know what to think. Maybe it will be a brilliant move by Mourinho...

Surely De Gea gets an assist there?

The Wolf! And, of course, the ranks of league officials still populated mostly by MU fans - nice VAR decision.
