I don't really follow how FFP actually works. But, it would be great if City was all of sudden hit with it. To somewhat level the playing field. Maybe install a Salary Cap? :wink:

City did a lot of dodgy stuff but i heard they threatened to sue if anyone tried to punish them and they have the money to cause problems so they only got minor fines and sanctions.

What a gift

It was a good goal from Liverpool, beautiful cross and finish, but we had a freekick at around the halfway line and passed it back to the keeper for no reason instead of going forward when we were playing alright. Then Liverpool scored from Lloris coughing up play with a poor ball forward from that.

What the **** is Sissoko doing there, that could have been it

Imagine having Liverpool on the ropes at Anfield and doing that, you just knew they'd find a way to **** it

Spurs deserved a point there. They played really well in the 2nd half. In the first half, I was thinking "man, these guys will never take points off Man City." In the second half "man, these guys might take points off Liverpool."

....

April is going to be a fun month.
ManU plays Barcelona, Everton, Man City and then Chelsea from April 16 to April 28. That's after playing Barc in early April.
ManCity plays Tottenham 3x and then ManU for April 9 to April 24

Those two teams have it the roughest but obviously Tot plays Man City 3x too.

There's a chance Liverpool finish with 97 points and don't win the league. That would be good enough to win every PL season ever except this years and last years. LOL!

A part of me was hoping we'd lose yesterday because I can't take it going to the last weeks man. I'm sick of this! And people are gonna have the nerve to say we bottled it if we don't win it.

I hate football.

United really gave Young , Jones , and Smalling new deals. God bless

I think they might’ve jumped the gun on Ole a bit too early too.

New Tottenham stadium opening. 1 billion pound price, is it well made, or was there cost cutting? What people think, any idea what the name will be?

Palace have been so so bad. Their only shot going in late in the game is going to be funny though.

Spurs back to winning ways. With almost all their games at home now they’re probably going to lock that third spot up.

Praying we correct our away form man.

I'm just glad the Wembley nonsense is over with

Should have had the third spot locked up already but what can you do

5 games left. A part of me wish Liverpool were already out of contention because I'm not going to be able to live with coming in 2nd with a 90+ season.

We could feasibly lose one time all year, finish on 97 points and not win the league. FFS!

It felt pretty brutal when Spurs had 86 and didn't win it, the year Chelsea won it with Conte. 97 would be absolutely ridiculous. This City team is just that good.

Arsenal slipping up yesterday against Everton completely opens up the top four race too. Could be an exciting end to the season.
