Agreed and maybe it would have been better to make it 2 subs of any age plus a further 3 of age 23 and under. Something like that anyway.
Burnley still losing but they came back from behind to win against Everton. Beginning to dominate the game now as well.
Brentford 2 up against WHU and yet again lucky lucky Brentford who are playing a team who need their best team in mid-week for a European match. Last week a freak result against Chelsea and now, so looking like Brentford are safe now
Burnley play twice before we take to the field again. West Ham (a) Southampton (h) Let's see where they are after those 2 before we get the bunting out.
Before we play again. Sunday 17th April West Ham United 14:15 Burnley Wednesday 20th April Everton 19:45 Leicester City Thursday 21st April Burnley 19:45 Southampton Sunday 24th April Burnley 14:00 Wolverhampton Wanderers Liverpool 16:30 Everton Up to Dyche to despatch Lampard.
Even if we lose every game from here... Burnley need to win 3 of their last 8 (or 9 points) to overtake us. They've only won 4 in 30 so far. Watford require 4 wins from 7 games (12 pts) to overtake us. They've won 6 from 31 so far. Norwich need 4 wins and a draw from 7 games to get past us. They have won 5 from 31 games. Now Watford have to play Burnley so that's one game out of the equation for one of those sides or even both if its a draw. Then there is Everton who have a horrific run in and have to squeeze games in. It's a big turnaround from here....not impossible but very much improbable even if we lose every game. Today was a big result.
Somebody accept my bet that Burnley will not win 3 on the bounce to pull level with us whilst we dont pick up any points. Burnley have won 4 games all season folks, gone, Watford gone, Norwich gone and Everton will be gone too if Burnley had an uptick in results.
Who we rooting for today? I'm hoping City. Don't like Klopp after his shenanigans at ER earlier this season getting Struijk sent off. On that note, the Watford lad did the exact same tackle on Raphinha yesterday and we didn't even get the foul.
City for me i have man utd supporting mates. One of them turned last weeks game off after 20 mins. Now thats what i call an entitled glory supporter. I have threatebned him with a full game if he starts.
