Dropped points all over the place from teams with a chance of finishing 7th / 8th

ARSLUT

The only highlight of tonight's matches.

Yup, no trend bucking from us.

 

[BevBHA]

Phil Foden scores again. What a fantastic player

 

[BevBHA]

And the assist from Rodri, wow. Biggest compliment to give him is that he’s as close to prime Sergio Busquets as any one has ever been

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Foden hattrick

Southgate managed to make him look like a league 2 player

To get the best out of Foden you just let him do whatever he wants. He’s that good. I’ve no idea of his actual position in this game, he’s everywhere

Obviously a pity we couldn't capitalise. It may well be that 7th or 8th place is going to need fewer than 60 points (last season Spurs finished 8th with 60). Currently it looks like the bunch of teams fighting for those places is 3 to 4 points worse off than at the same stage last season - so maybe 56 points will get 8th.

Unfortunately that still means we need 13 from 8 matches (which include Man City, Arsenal, Aston Villa, Chelsea, Newcastle and Man Utd). I would say we'd be lucky to get 10. So - unless the rest of the bunch flunk things, we're probably going to miss out.

 

[jcdenton08]

Foden is going to be the best in the world. He’s outrageously good.

Palace were awful absolutely awful, we are absolutely pants.

Brighton/Brentford tonight: 'hold my beer'

 

[Official Old Man]

Should be easy for Liverpool tonight, but then again it's the EPL so who knows.
Meanwhile torn between Chelsea, hate to see them win and they could be level with us, and Man Utd, who in reality are the team we are chasing.

 

[Is it PotG?]

Liverpool / Chelsea dbl.

 

[Javeaseagull]

Liverpool gifted a goal. Might as well switch to the other game when it starts. Sigh.

 

[LamieRobertson]

Utd one down already…if they play like they did against Brentford they’ll be thrashed

 

[Hugo Rune]

Twatbiscuits! Hate Chelsea!

 

[Is it PotG?]

Man Ure showing their class yet again, abysmal side.

 

[Bozza]

Wouldn't be surprised for Chelsea to finish the night above us for the first time since the dinosaurs roamed the earth, give or take.

 

[BN41Albion]

Man Ure showing their class yet again, abysmal side.

It really annoys me that they're above us. As it must those around us. They really are fecking awful yet have absolutely fluked an extra 20 or so points this season - almost another 3 the other day but luckily at least only 1 that time.

That said, I really hope they fluke 3 more tonight... shyte start though...
