Bournemouth and Villa have to win tomorrow or they have had it.

Yep.

Don't be shocked to see West Ham and Watford play out a boring 0-0 on Friday. The chances of Villa or Bmouth getting to 36 are slim as it is - but they're practically zero if they slip up tomorrow.
 
Of course it also opens up the possibility of Bmouth going down before we play them. If they lose to Leicester (tomorrow) and City (Wednesday), then such a draw on Friday between Watford and West Ham would move them both seven clear with two games left.
 
Looking good for us to put the final nail in Bournemouth's coffin but they could already be relegated before that if they fail to get a result against Leicester.

As Brendy has just pointed out above..<doh>

Either way I think that they are going to hate playing us..:emoticon-0130-devil

Just aswell there won't be any fans in the stadium.
 
Surprised Antonio hasn’t drawn interest from any of the big clubs in the past few years.

Injury record?

To be fair, his own team don't even rate him. I think this is something like the fourth season in a row where West Ham have hardly picked him until about November time. Preferring instead to play the first three months of the season with their new multi-million pound pretty boys, until they suddenly find themselves right in a relegation battle and turn to Antonio - who duly shows my desire and willingness, and often scores more goals, than all of those pretty boys put together.

It'll be interesting if they finally do it differently next season, and actually start off with him.
 
Dwight Gayle continues to show, as has been the case since lockdown and throughout his career, that he can't score against PL teams but has no problem against Championship teams.


Cameron Jerome fitted that bill too: prolific in The Championship but barren in the Premiership. Can anyone think of others?
