Another prediction by Gary Neville: His he out of his mind?. https://www.skysports.com/football/...ool-and-arsenal-in-premier-league-this-season
I guess anyone who gets a draw at Old Trafford can go on to do great, great things So desperate. Keane basically told him to grow up.
That's Neville the utd fan talking, not neville the professional pundit. Unfortunately the fan comes out in his punditry way too often.
Its pretty near he's a snotty little whinger and a rat. He was clearly upset spurs dominated utd on the ball and wanted to big up his clubs's ****ty form by making out a draw against spurs is a major achievement. Spurs will shortly have nothing but league games to play. City are red hot favourites for the game even if its at the toilet bowl. Its quite reasonable to assume a club with very little else to do but one league game a week can put together a run. the problem is that same side can't defend worth a damn because the manager sends them out to be 2 at the back with no screen at all. The full backs become 8s or 10s. the CMs just go forward so theres always a massive gap to play into. Arsenal can't score/won't score but are good defensively and are in "crisis" as a result. so a club already in crisis won't improve but a club thats nothing to play for will? neville logic. As for LFC. We should just be grateful neville hasn't blamed us for the middle east conflict (yet)
Yeah I can see Spurs fans eventually growing a bit tired of the ‘entertaining football’ and will start demanding consistency. There is a very good chance city exploit their gaps comfortably and give them a right hiding
I'd fully expect that game to be a right ding dong affair. Its one to put down as must watch just for the entertainment value either way. Spurs fans will probably take a leaf out of the neville utd manager book and claim ange can do no wrong for at least another season. They are doing better than they were. They have bought well over all, they are certainly on the up. tactically though, you can get so far being all out attack but the stats don't lie. spurs have done very well against the "rich 7" they'd scored 16 goals in 7 games but they've conceded 13 and were given massive reffing favours by simon hooper in two games They have 12 points from 7 games there which is as many as city have managed. IN the other games they have one of the average records. So everyone outside the rich 7 are more likely to park a bus basically. Played 14 won 9, draw 1 lost 4. not too bad but have scored 28 and conceded 18. They are really not much better than chelsea there. cheslea have played one more at 15 and won 8 and drew 1 with only 17 goals conceded. Basically spurs have a great little set up with a lot of goals flooding forward but they are conceding a lot. 31 goals conceded is akin to Chelsea utd and Newcastle records. Over the course of a season unless you tighten up on those goals against you might get top 4 but you won't be higher. what's separating them form Chelsea right now is ability to finish and score. If we compare and contrast to villa the records are VERY similar in terms of goals scored and goals conceded and theres only a game between them that spurs lost and villa won. (the direct head to head game was villa 2, spurs 1) This is all positive stuff compared to last season. vicario Romero VDV Porro Edogie Johnson Holberg Richarilson bentacour skipp Werner Like.... all it'd take would be one cm to astucally sit if the full backs are going to tuck in and then act like 8s up and down the park. Everyone piles on in a mad press that looks great then one ball and its 2 v 2. this is 2 mins into the game. there's a throw from onana. one pass forward to garancho and here we have garancho playing a ball in over the top and its 3 v 2 plus the man is basically in. Rashford nearly mucked this situation up. it ende dup falling to holjund who scored.
if they can afford to not be sold sure. it's 100% better news than the sale goes through but we could be looking at administration and 10 more points off the top.
I'm not up to date on all the ins and outs of their financial situation but 777 has been loaning them £millions. If they don't get to buy them, not sure how Everton pay them back.
This is very confusing as you are right there was some talk of bridging loans so they are on life support here. they have to be. In theory moshiri should be paying them back anything given in advance. I don't know where the story is that this is to collapse as its not anywhere i see. If masters approves this again there is no fit and proper rules. its literally just zero protection of fans clubs. And clubs are the fan's property no matter what a financial owner says. They can walk and ruin a club in a heartbeat.
Loans from 777 estimated at £150m, used for day to day running costs and not transfers. And the fans want a financial penalty and not a points penalty.
