    I'm still not convinced by Bravo. I think he's got plenty of mistakes in him, could be the difference seeing as the points between 1st and 3rd/4th are going to be really tight this season.

    ... yes we did indeed win the EPL, many haven't of course ... gotta be way more embarrassing to have never won it, recently blown your best ever, perhaps only, realistic chance and now be playing for a point a game via the penalty spot tbf ... still, as long as your UCL campaign is going great guns <whistle> <laugh>

    Pep ****ed up by letting Hart go - he admitted he's going to make mistakes when it comes to players. Pep could have improved Hart.

    Stones is a talented footballer but he is the type of defender who steps out when the back four are trying to keep their shape or he plays a ridiculous pass.

    Opposition managers just have to target Stones, wind him up, he isn't a natural defender and needs a Tony Adams alongside him, giving him a masterclass in defending, teaching him how to defend.

    "Tottenham fans might not be happy but I met Tony Adams quite a few times," Dier told the Sun, as quoted by the Daily Mail. "He came away with us when I played for England Under-19s and it was great to be around him."

    Dier claims that the former Arsenal man still has it in him to exert his influence on the pitch in spite of not being able to perform in a physical battle like he did in his prime years. However, he compensates for the same with his mind, which is still as sharp as it was during his years in Highbury.

    "One day in training we were a player short so he trained with us. It was great. His body was past it yet he managed to cope because he could read the game so well and talked non-stop," Dier concluded.

    Eric Dier owes his England career to a Gooner.

    Got to feel a little sorry for Liverpool tbf - they've had a great start but will likely fall short as they generally do when having one of their better seasons ... then come the summer a big club like Barcelona, Real Madrid or Manchester United will come in for Mane and Coutinho and Liverpool will be back to contesting for a Europey place for the next 3 or 4 years ... footie can be very cruel at times and not everyone can be an EPL winner of course... but that's life.

    The Spuds defence is the second dirtiest in the league so far this season.

    Spuds also are London's dirtiest side to date this season.

    ... perhaps ... but their forwards are despicably treated by very mean opposing defenders - hence the abnormally high, point gaining, penalty count <laugh>

    Top 4 is done and dusted in particular order of Man City Chelsea Arsenal and Liverpool.

    Similarly 5th and 6th for Tottenham and Manchester United.

    7th everton,it will probably the highest aggregate quality top 7 of all time in the premiership.

    Whoever wims the title out of this mix will have become a hell of a team on the pitch and mentally super great by the end of the road and will be a real favourite for next season's championsleague even if the title defence goes awry.
