Some referees are afraid of bigger name players. 

I understand the number of fouls won't always map to number of cards given. But we have the third most yellows in the league but 12th in number of fouls.

Liverpool 4th for fouls, but 18th for cards.

We also gets the most yellows in the first 30 mins.

Brighton have sold much better plays under De Zerbi. Caicedo and McAllister were their spine. 

They've also been playing in Europe which as we know is tough. He's done a solid job. Saying that I also think David Moyes has at West Ham but he's not liked there. Makes a big difference playing attractive football on top of getting results. 

Bloody Toney got to score that.

The annoying thing is that Man U could easily go and win their remaining 9 in a row, and it probably wouldn’t be that surprising. Even if we get lucky and they only manage to draw tonight, they could still do serious damage with 8 remaining. So for me they are a concern still and will be until it is mathematically impossible for them to go above us. I’m praying that is achieved before the last game of the season. 

We could easily win our remaining eight games. I've taken what you've had too. 

He's work in progress but he's a super exciting talent. He can do things very few players can do with the ball at his feet.

Almost like we didn't beat Luton with a late goal just weeks back...

I don't think so he's just in poor form since coming back from injury.

Edit: sorry somehow quoted wrong post. (Maddison)

Strange against Fulham. 3-1 Sheffield United 

3rd worst away record in league. Only two wins.

Spurs are destined to score a 92nd minute winner here

Exactly what I was thinking. Luton will be dead on their legs by then. It's inevitable. 

I feel for Luton they always play well for 45-60 mins but don't have the squad to freshen things up. 

Damn Hashioka on for Luton. Whenever I've seen him he's been dreadful defending. 

McGinn has always had poor games against Wolves tbh. Not sure why but as it's a bit of a Derby he always had a rush of blood and always playing on the edge.

Probably will still miss him, but still have faith in our midfield.

Scored too early, hope I'm wrong.

Just noticed Lille don't play in between their games with us and therefore can concentrate their preparation on the second leg in France. We have Arsenal away in between.

Going to be a tough schedule, which again highlights need to get points on board today.

We've had some must win/don't lose games and we've failed when it comes to it. 

We need to get something today, a draw wouldn't be great though. 

If England get the extra place do we have to play a qualifying game if we finish 5th or are we straight in?

 

Everyone is in the same league. 

I think they'll sell Gibbs White myself. English premium and would fit in most sides. 

Klopp being a prick yet again. Good riddance come May. 

Yep agreed, I think although we want to win every game. Given the suspensions, injuries and schedule that was a solid point. 

I could only catch the game 60 mins onwards and thought he really helped drive us forward. How was he before that? 

Muniz has been brilliant since getting a start for them.

Fulham look really good. 

Watkins is the better all round player at this point. But Benteke definitely had the X Factor to win games out of nothing which I don't think Ollie totally possesses all the time. 

For this team I'd 100% have Ollie but for a team without Emery structure I'd have prime Benteke.

I think Arsenal will knock out Bayern and Leverkusen will knock out West Ham..

Hopefully avoid the greek sides and Fener. The away legs I fear we'd crumble like against Legia.
