....hasn't happened since I started paying attention to the EPL...

Typical Arsenal lol. Had a 1-0 games in both games last week against Everton and Man City. Ended up losing 2-1 in both games. Running home to watch ESPNFC to watch them destroy Arsenal

After what seemed to be a pretty mediocre 1st half (or close enough to first half) of the season, Spurs find themselves still just 1 point outside the top 4. Given the injuries that have plagued them, I think a top 4 finish would be a solid campaign.

Manchester United looks like they're hitting their stride as well. Race for top 4 should be good. Only 4 points separates 4th though 6th.

Teams that bore me right now:
Chelsea
Manchester city
Arsenal
Manchester united

Annnnnnd STILL haven't beaten Liverpool in my soccer-conscious life... PHHHHHHT!!!!

I really like that Chelsea coach. He sure is animated when they score. Costa isn't as big of a doosh this season and is playing really well. Not sure what happened to Oscar, but apparently he is considering a move to Shanghai SIPG for 20 million euro per year. that's a lot of scratch.

Yeah I always liked their coach. He was damn good with Italy as well.

Manchester United is rolling now. Top 4 doesn't look so crazy

Great win today. Down 1-0 in the 80th minute. Somehow managed to score 2 goals and get the 2-1 win.

As bad as they started the season, they're only 3 points out of 3rd at the halfway mark

 

[bksballer89]

Does Chelsea lose Wednesday on the road against Spurs? Well not lose but do they at least drop points?

If they win that game then the streak likely goes on until at least January 31st when they head to Anfield

 

[bksballer89]

Which goal was better?

Yeah, it gets frustrating, they always seem to bottle it when they need to win/gain ground. I was on my way home yesterday and alerts were coming and I was yelling "are you fucking kidding me?"

Granted they came back and tied, but still, very frustrating.

Too many dropped points on the road lately. If I'm thinking correctly they have dropped 8 of 9 points in their last 3 road games (Everton, Man City, & Bournemouth) unless I missed a road game during that stretch.

Huge game today. The entire EPL is rooting for Spurs today. If Chelsea lose today then Liverpool and City will feel like they're right back in it. Liverpool would be 5 points behind while City and Spurs will be 7 points behind. Absolutely nothing with 18 games left after tonight. But if Chelsea win and having the 2nd and 3rd place teams 8 and 11 points behind is kinda hard to come back from.

On top of that if Chelsea lose today, it could be the start of a rough stretch for them which could possibly get teams like Man United and Arsenal back in the race. After today they go on the road to LC, home vs hull, away against Liverpool, and home vs Arsenal. I can see them dropping 5 or 6 points from those 4 games depending which LC shows up

fucking Bournemouth blew it!

It's nice that Arsenal still dropped points. If Spurs somehow manage a win today, they move up to 3rd and just a few behind Liverpool.

Anxiously refreshing in hopes that Spurs don't pull a Bournemouth.
