    Chelsea are most likely to win the league. Something terrible have to happen for them not to.

    Hope that they get beaten :
    Games against big teams:
    Chelsea v Arsenal
    Chelsea v Man city
    Manchester United v Chelsea.

    They still need to play Tobes team away and Mark Hughes team away.
    I am not negative like Sir Alex Ferguson wishing them struck down by malaria.

    Not really bothered that the chavs will win it again. Everyone says its remarkable with how sh!t they were last season, but people forget they won it the year before with largely the same team, so its not unexpected. Conte is likable too, same ilk as Klopp.

    As for the others, would love Pep not to win anything.
    Arsenal hopefully just plod along and do enough to not sign anyone and progress at all.
    Tottenham could build something, new stadium soon too. A lot to build on

    Hmmm maybe i'm remembering it differently. Trying to find some footage online but couldn't. I thought it was a bit dangerous when i first saw it and the replays made it look even worse. At the time i thought it was similar to barkleys on hendersons (moses was lucky he didn't have his feet planted) but slightly less worse hence borderline red but without having a replay it's hard to see.

    Likewise until Tobes video i didn't remember clattenberg measuring the line and blowing the whistle so it just goes to show how easy it is to miss things in the match

    He did throw both legs up swan dive esque but it was quite clear contact from matip and matip doesn't touch the ball. Looked dodgy in real time but the angle from behind which they showed in the replays clearly show him getting caught before he then flops over

    For Clattencunt to be sure it was a pen despite blatantly playing the ball, and for the linesman to be sure our player was offside despite the ball being passed backwards is evidence the officials were viewing the game through prejudiced eyes such as when there is self-interest in a particular outcome

    Not how I remember it without trying to be biased. Was no where near as bad as barkleys. He caught him with his trailing knee/thigh and Moses was half in the air expecting t. Wasn't a snide coward tackle like Barkley where Hendo had no where to go.

    in the end if its not even got a video online with a chav moaning clearly it was a none issue

    bust seriously the game has got to the point where you can fly into anything you have to be first to it and then clear house like i think lovren did on someone in second half.

    if you put any sort of sliding challenge in now on a guy who is passing the ball you will be sent off.

    You can only slide towards a ball thats not yet in possession and try clear it. If a guy ha the ball and dribbling and you slide it seems you get min yellow and sometimes red.

    tackles must be block tackles or a on your feet stab with the toe tackle.

    its not like milner has no form for going in hard on guys and getting yellow in the opposition half sliding in.

    Only because they decided they weren't bothering.
