Match Day Thread Tottenham Hotspur v Leicester City

That is total vindication for the league introducing 3 pts for a win.
Double the losses to date like for like with 2016-17, yet 7 pts better off.

 

How would it look with 5 pts for a win, 1 pt for a draw?

 

Looking at the premier league stats Trippier has apparently made 151 crosses this season resulting in 3 assists! Walker- Peters has 3 assists too (no crosses) and Aurier 2 assists 19 crosses, and from the other flank Rose and Davies have put in 83 crosses (Dan 49, Ben 34), for 2 assists (both Rose). Something to work on there then - we currently average 1 goal every 37 crosses from our fullbacks

To put that into context we score 1 goal every 7 crosses from our forward players

 

You'd still be 5 points behind Liverpool as you've both won 20.
You'd be an extra 2 points behind City as they've won 21.

 

And below us ... ?? < tee hee >

 

Be a better system. It would make teams play to win. And relegation would go to the wire.

 

They'd all be even further adrift....

 

They?

 

The 17 others. Starting with Utd.

 

"We" was the pronoun for any one of the 17. Only Spurs, City and Pool fans can use "they". And I know you don't support Liverpool or City.

 

The ones who under the deedub regime would be at least
19 pts behind Spurs after week 26 of the PL season.

 

Yep. Just interested why a Utd fan wouldn't use the pronoun "we". I have a long held theory that Luke is a lilywhite and I jump on any evidence of this.

 

Yeah but 2 draws and two losses makes the gap 1 point

 

astro-(il)logical predictions.

 

What prediction

 

Five points for an away win might mean less bus parking and more football

 

Happens most weeks against anyone who's up for it...he's not good enough for where we want to be.

 

Trippier is the perfect rotation option at right back, but as a first choice he's been exposed - the problem is that Poch doesn't seem to rate Aurier, so we're in limbo until the summer (at the earliest...)

 

Here's something the pundits didn't pick up on: if you watch Trippier closely he's telling Hugo exactly where the One Season Wonder's penalty is going to go

 

They would have trained together on set pieces with the England squad
