United will come good, so will Citeh, Arsenal are right up there and so are you... What's your problem? Apart from damp sheets?

No one gives a fuck about United, they are a finished force.

RIiiiiiiiiiight.

They're in the mix to fuck your top 4 aspirations up.

Any team that has to utilise Lucas at centre back cannot claim to be title contenders. At least we can stop dreaming now and go back to the more realistic expectations of losing the League Cup final to United and finishing fifth.

From two hours ago.

What's your problem?

Realism.

Spurs will do fuck all, obvs...

I did some searches last night for videos of the just announced 2016 Thrasher magazine skater of the year Kyle Walker, and now Google thinks I'm a Spurs fan. FML

Just do some searches for Liverpool players, Google's algorithms are clever enough to know you're just a glory hunting plastic with little interest in football these days, and will stop serving you football related content.

Everton are looking good. The top half of the table is very close and could be upset completely in just three or four games. Remember how Chelsea were 11 points ahead of City a couple of years ago and in just over a month City had closed the gap. All to play for and as Chevron says, City's to lose. ManU cannot be discounted. Once Mourinho sorts out the dressing room issue by flogging Rooney back to Everton, he will be in command and results will flow. Liverpool are looking strong. Three goals against Bournemouth is no mean feat. Arsenal were dominant against a West Ham side that beat Chelsea recently.

All to play for. Sadly, we have been riding our luck and it cannot last forever. We had had some easy fixtures over the last eight games. Five hard games to play in the next few weeks. All could change.

'Everton looking good'

Are you pissed? 🤔

Ronald's still finding his feet, you'll come good... #moyesin

They drew with ManU and probably should have beaten them. Only seven points off a Europa place. Could squeeze a top four but, realistically, I am not sure they can hope to win the league.

Mate, we'll be lucky to finish in the top 10

Only seven points off a Europa place.

You're only eight points off a relegation place...

Just found out our office Christmas party is in The Woolwich Suite at The Emirates.
Not massively excited about this to be honest but at least I get to go to a ground for the first time in five years :) and at least it's at not Tottenham or Chelsea. Anyone been to a function here. Any good?

Chelsea or Everton?

This is a good read:

Well thanks to Anthony 'Altrincham fan' Taylor, piss poor defending and some hot-headed latin Americans, that was a shit saturday. Still if anyone deserves a showing it's Luiz.

Liverpool and Fellaini made it a Sunday to savour mind.

He means Chelsea. But I suspect he is deducting points for games where Costa should have been sent off.

FA charge Chelsea over Aguerro foul on Luiz.

Is it not for Chalobah running in and pushing Aguero which started the post tackle mele? The charge is for Failing to control your players, not for one of the opposition players committing a foul.

Whatever the charge is for, it's a bleeding conspiracy I tell ya.

be great to see you next Thurs dude. at the Lamb (Thurs 15 Dec)

and have noted the other responses to the annual xmas football thread drinks. hope those of you that can will get along.

be good to get some face to face analysis and hear thoughts on what will happen when the season starts for real in January. oh, and drink beer of course. lots of it.

I will try, Jonny. But if that TwotentsRamaye character is going to be there, I may be washing my hair.

Blow. It is the firm's Christmas dinner. Sorry can't make it.

Anyone able to get there early, say around 4ish?
