Yep.

And Moyes won't be sacked, Liverpool wouldn't be in the top 4 at xmas 2 seasons ago, and definitely not in the top four at the end of that season. :P

I'm making no great claims for Liverpool, nowhere near the ridiculous you're at. :)

That's the past though, let's talk about the present.

Liverpool are currently 2 points from being out of the top 10, also only 3 points from the bottom 6. There fixture list is pretty daunting for a team who have only beaten Bournemouth, stoke and villa this season.

Liverpool will struggle to get 4 points from the next 5 games.

This LFC fan can't wait to see the back of him. As Time has said, he's a deadman walking. Shouldn't have been retained after the fiasco at Stoke last year. The Madrid embarrassment was the final straw for me and a few players it seems. Gerrard for one.

And only won 5 of the last 15 games going back to March 16th when they beat Swansea. 5 wins. Newcastle, QPR, Stoke, Bournemouth and Villa.

 

Only three matches where they've scored 2 or more in the their last 22 games in all comps. Shambolic for the money spent. But, Benteke now in and Sturridge fit and scoring.............

 

Gerrard for one.

 

More Mourinho love in chat from Gerrard today.

So a race for Ancelotti and Klopp between Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool?

Mourinho is under pressure. Wengers time is coming to a close surely?

While Arsenal are competing for the title, he is going nowhere. If they finish 4th and are out in the group stages of the champions league then he could be in trouble. There is no way Ancelotti would be the replacement, I doubt they would look to someone to just come in for a couple of years.

Ancelotti is 56.

Was at the game last night. It was shocking.

 

Points I took from it:

  • Walcott is not a centre forward. We missed Giroud.
  • Arsenal have no players other than Coquelin that are willing to put their body on the line when defending. 
  • After conceding the first of 3 of the sloppiest goals I've ever seen the only player to try and get the team going before the restart was Bellerin. He is the youngest player in the team.
  • I heard for the first time multiple attacks on Wenger from the crowd.  
  • Olympiacos are awful.
  • Our only 'attacking' options on the bench were Joel Campbell and Ramsey.
  • Sanchez is back to where he was last season. We are already relying on him to win us games.

Can you see them finishing differently? They've Bayern x 2 next. They need a result in one of those games to have any chance really.

I suppose it depends more on the double header between the other 2 teams. If it goes for arsenal they could lose both bayern games, still go through by winning the last 2.

Last 3 jobs he has only managed 2 years at each, I don't think that's what they are looking for.

 

Chelsea, PSG and Madrid though. Most managers last 2 years at those clubs. He was 8 years at Milan.

They'll need to be very lucky.

I'd imagine Zagreb will get 4 points from the double. Meaning they will be on 7. We will have to at least get a draw in one of the games against Bayern.

 

Although it could very easily be 2 home wins between the two. Leaving all three teams on 6. It is decided on head to head records isn't it?

 

So arsenal will need to beat both Olympiacos and Zagreb by 2 goals in each

Yep, you need a miracle. Its the Bayern results(s) thats the tricky bit. They're on fire at the moment.

 

League form - played 7, won 7, goals 23, goals conceded 3.

CL form - Played 2, won 2, goals for 8, goals conceded 0.

 

 

 

Will be interesting what happens at arsenal when Wenger does go.

Very similar situation with fergie.

 

Why? Fergie was still winning things. Wenger hasn't got close to winning anything for over a decade. After he sold Viera basically.

      sub yes I could see but I don't think they get 1hr 15, a headliner starting at 18:15 though is unlikely. Even the recent co-headlines that have had like 1hr 15 then a 1hr 30 after were on 8pm or just before, you are trailing behind more than 1.5 hours then. In that scenario some 3rd down bands are only starting at 18:15 and some haven't lol. I agree they won't not book them due to this but it won't be 6 headliners. It would be 5 headliners and you wouldn't want to see 5 headliners booked but Biffy were to not be thouhgt of as an option for one. Wolf Alice on the other hand could sub no bother and you'd think nothing of it. I'm not so sure Biffy would get headline though after the festival choice in Kendal this year.

      Definitely. UKIP also used Merkel welcoming 1 million Afgans to Europe in 2015 during the brexit vote.   Politicians in other countries within the EU know the are going to lose voters to parties to the right of them over stuff like this and they've no control over it.

      I think it will very much vary on who there is to book who they know will sell out a day.    They’ve co-headline and full headline stuff in future, there no reason at all they won’t do it again, even if it means cutting someone’s set by 15 mins or having a band less in a big bands day…   They’re not going to not book Foo fighters and instead get the equivalent of Florence and C&S just to not have a band do a big set…   …unless of course they think it will make them more money…

      Maybe some right wing leaders like Meloni are just playing to their base, like Reform have been here talking about them ending up at Calais.

      Citizenship via investment programs basically work by saying if you invest this much in our economy (say buy a property worth x) then we will either grant you citizenship or residency with a route to it. The EU has rules on how low countries can set the bar. Montenegro was one of the easier ones to get and they've had to tighten it up.
