Really happy for Sunderland

Mental day of fan clashes there. Don't think cops got the planning right.

The metro goes right into Newcastle and they policed the network.

Hannover Braunschweig on Friday was totally tame as the cops barricaded everything and left nothing to chance. Check out the pyro on YouTube.

Rough week for Toon after the Barcelona drubbing and now this.
 
yes good on the black kats.
I also think its great the small clubs like sea gulls/Brentford/Bournemouth keep on keeping on in the big flight.
Hate to say it one who has achieved better than expected is the toffees - now P8, you wouldn't have picked that start of the season.

Howe ?!
Surely they are looking to replace him for '27 ?
 
Spurs going down had always seemed unfathomable but now that it's closer it's become realistic and fitting as it was for clubs like Schalke and Villa. Big clubs do go down from time to time. Schalke had UCL, I feared them back in the day as they were the toughest team. Bremen, Stuttgart and Hamburg have suffered the same fate.

I think Spurs going down will be a good lesson for football and for them. After so many years of repetitive opponents, Spurs fans should relish a big new set of opponents and destinations. League One is awesome with its club rotation every season.

Perhaps it's normal but I've found this part of the season a real going through the motions time. Perhaps it's just late season fatigue.

Odd given the title, Europe and relegation is still on the line.

got to say its a strange season the way its gone and all.
The many sackings/many clubs form so up and down, its a strange kind of hype atm.

I agree the last relo spot amongst 4 clubs - thats 6 games of massive pressure between them and viewing to me but where's the hype.
Europe spots is open for so many still as mentioned.
The title as far as I'm concerned is in their hands pretty much - the usual suspects have fallen off the edge this season.
Therefore its made it title fight kind of lame.

The EPL is losing its "zing" - being selfish and from a entertaining outlook the league whilst Klopp/Pep were duelling was epic viewing.
Klopp's game even the neutral and haters of LFC would have got a high each game whereas todays game is flat/a defensive battle tyring to find that small hole to break through.

What you've identified is an undeniable truth.

The Prem a few years back had all the big name managers in the league (Klopp, Pep, Tuchel, Conte etc.) across 21/22 & 22/23 seasons.

The league is now stacked with Hipster Managers, but not big names.

Many big names across Italy & Spain but not England. Also at National Teams.

My prediction is big names will come back into the league following the World Cup.

yep sad but a phase to go through - not sure why with all the talent that is in the competition.
The skilled ones are being choked due to stacked defense's x 10.

Gegenpressing
Full-throttle
Heavy Metal
Mentality Monsters
This was absorbing exciting football.
You either had to match it or least played as such to counter it.

Look at the lack of hype gooners leading after all this time - in the box seat to shake off the choke tag.
Like really the care factor or media hype is nothing like you'd think it should be.
There isn't any wow look how they are playing to the title.
