Unbelievable achievement Spurs topping this group. It definitely feels like the PL sides are ready to start dominating this competition again

Cracking week for Goatistuta. No wonder he was asking for the table!

200/1 is a good price for Iceland. I don’t for a minute think they’ll do anything but, after Leicester, you just never know. Other than outsiders, I think my money would be on France or Brazil next year

Good article and hard to argue with any of the selections. Some incredible teams there. Thanks for sharing 999

That’s it Paxton. If City were to draw against Leicester and lose at OT, assuming all 3 of City, Utd and Spurs win their other games, the gap is suddenly back to 3 points between City and Utd/Spurs with Chelsea only a point behind.

A lot of IFs I know but it can all change very quickly. I still fancy City for the title but I can understand City fans’ cautious approach to the topic.

Brian, I had a good look around and couldn’t understand where the problem was. Out of interest, how do you sign into the site? Do you click on the sign-in link and sign in on the dedicated sign in page or do you use the sign in widget on the home page (the one where you don’t leave the homepage)? Hope that makes sense.

Does anyone else have this problem?

Not bad so far for a very depleted England side. Loftus-Cheek showing plenty of promise. I don’t really get Tammy Abraham. To me, he just looks like a clumsier version of Welbeck. He’ll probably go and score now but in the few games I’ve seen him, he just hasn’t impressed me much

I don’t necessarily think he’s disillusioned Jim. I just think the challenge at PSG is more suited to him than the Utd job. It’s a huge job at Utd. The pressure is enormous and the chance of winning things much less than at the likes of PSG.

Like most top level managers, Wenger aside, he’s not interested in staying around for years and years. He’s after adding to his trophy cabinet as he’s obsessed with winning.

He’s done a year and a half already. If he sees out his 3 years, he’ll probably be amongst the longest serving managers in the league at the time. He’s not going to be around much longer either way imo

As for José, I can understand the attraction at PSG. Of course, he’s had tons of money at Utd, there’s no denying that. I still don’t think Utd would have ever been able to spend 400mil on Mbappe and Neymar or whatever it was but we’re certainly not skint.

However, it would take double, triple what Utd have spent to become the only dominant force in the league. Even with that spending, I don’t think we’d be heading and shoulders above the rest as there’s just so much money around the rest of the league.

Whereas at PSG, his ego and desire for winning trophies would be fed much easier. Not only would he win the league every season with ease but he’d have a much better chance at winning the CL imo as his players would be much more fresh coming from a less competitive league.

I don’t think he’ll go yet as his ego would never forgive him for quitting and giving up against Pep. I think that’s the only thing keeping him around. In some ways, I admire his desire to win, as annoying as he can be sometimes. I’d much rather that than him being from the Wenger school of accepting mediocrity.

Jim, I’d say Moyes is still living off his Everton record rather than anywhere else. I think the Utd job did nothing but harm to his reputation. There’s no doubt his confidence took a massive hit, as did his influence amongst players when he went from the main man at Everton and someone who did a lot with very little resources to Utd. He had no right to be even around the CL places with the net budget he worked with at Everton.

He went from that to following possibly the most successful manager ever, the impossible job in my opinion. All of a sudden he’s managing serial winners, something he hasn’t been himself. I think that job absolutely killed the way other players respond to his methods. I still think if he can find the right club, he can do what he did at Everton and really build them up over time.

Moyes is a strange choice for West Ham and I think the fans have every reason to be a bit concerned. It’s quite often the case when clubs struggle that they turn to experienced PL managers like Moyes, Allardyce, Pulis etc. They’ll be back in for a young manager from Europe as soon as their safety is secured though.

Looks as though Paul Clement is the favourite to be sacked next.

Oops, sorry Banjo/Chucky! I clearly didn’t look closely enough! The gap is tightening though…

Brian, I wasn’t aware that was an issue so thanks for letting me know. I’ll look at it and should have it fixed by the end of the week. Apologies for the inconvenience

Sadly, this case I think will only strengthen the beliefs of those who unconditionally believe in their right to bear arms. The Americans will point to the fact that a vigilante resident chased off the gunman thus preventing further deaths. I can’t see it ever changing

Jim, as much as it pains me to see City playing such good football and seemingly running away with the league, I wouldn’t begrudge a single City fan like yourself the joy you must be feeling right now under Pep. Certainly not any of you who have been there through the ups and downs. It’s what football is all about.

FYI I’ve given @newbalance a “break” from the site, initially for a day or two as I didn’t like his last post on the previous page. Now onto the International break where I hope we can see NB posting again as I know he’s a passionate England fan. Enjoy the rest of your evening NB and I’ll send you an email tomorrow

@newbalance Please email me if you want to discuss it further. I won’t be replying tonight but I’ll get back to you tomorrow. I don’t want any more posts on the forum about it.

@newbalance, I see nothing from 999 to justify your post at 7:48 tonight. As Jim suggested, chill! It’s nothing more than a kind word for the moment but I would like you to refrain from attacking other posters on here.

There’s a decent bunch of posters on here and I’ve yet to have to delete a post or block anyone (apart from obvious wind-up merchants.) Let’s try to keep it that way. Feel free to email me if you take issue with any poster going forward.

Now back to the football. Good win for Liverpool NB. Every reason to be positive going into the International break.
