Leicester home and away
Stoke home(2-0 to 2-2)
Newcastle(McClaren) home(up 1-0)
Arsenal home(11v10 up 2-1)
WBA home(up 1-0)
Chelsea away(up 2-0)

Dont say you didnt waste a golden opportunity. You wont finish ahead of Guardiola. So the earliest realistic shot at winning the title will be 2020.


City isn't going to win the PL next year. Chelsea will dominate the league.


Tomorrow is another universe. Let's enjoy this story for a while.

This article sums things up pretty well.

I feel exactly like Lineker in the video clip.

over or under 3 Spurs players banned this week?? I'm going with a homerun pick of 4 but at least 2

costa is definitely getting one too lol , he bodied vorm. I've read he may have even bitten him lmaoooo , Danny rose tried to take on the entire chelsea bench and bodied a 60 year old man :lol: :lol: :lol:


Well Rose is a definite to get banned for going after OAPs, what an idiot, he should be banned until next season too. Costa too, love the passion but if he really did bite Vorm then he deserves what's coming to him.

Other than that, I think it's just going to be Dembele for gouging Costa, so I'm going to sit at 2 Spurs players. The club itself will get fined for failing to control their players. I want some footage of the tunnel after the game, must've been mayhem.

When you look at the Vardy ban you'd have to think that 20 players from the 2 teams will get a ban. :lol:

just watching some of the lowlights from yesterday's match again.

Dier completely lost it with those tackles. Not sure how he stayed on the pitch and really he should expect a ban. Lamela deliberately stepped on Fabregas' hand, silly and childish, dembele did go for the eyes though there wasn't much in it, I guess he might get a ban because of the general ugliness.

For me Dier is the one who needs to be had a word with most of all.

Cesc Fabregas has been accused of sparking the ugly scenes at the end of Chelsea’s Stamford Bridge battle with Tottenham Hotspur by slapping the nether regions of Spurs players and staff.

Telegraph Sport can also reveal that interim manager Guus Hiddink not only dragged Fabregas off the pitch in an attempt to diffuse the situation, but also angrily laid into one of his own members of Chelsea staff who had joined in the tunnel bust up.

And yet Huth and Fellaini are brought up on charges of violent conduct. That means Huth will probably have to miss the rest of the season. If that happens The whole of the Chelsea and Tottenham teams should miss the rest of the season.

Seems the FA has been inconsistent with it's bans this season.

What did Huth do? Stick his face in Fellaini's elbow?

He grabbed Fellaini's hair during a set piece, which is what prompted the elbow in the first place. To be fair, Huth's not averse to a good elbow himself.

and he won't complain.

but if he gets a ban for that then there should be 20 players a week getting a ban. The 2 elbows were far nastier and dangerous.

Huth gets a 3 match ban the same as the guy who hit him twice in the face with an elbow. Seems excessive and also disrupts the beginning of next season for us.

How many of the Chelsea, Tottenham players are up on charges?

6 games for Dembele. A little ridiculous imo, especially since Dembele is a pretty clean and non-demonstrative player.
