The Premier League Thread

So Paqueta ****ed then

Interesting to see how common this is, I’m sure he’s not the only player who has/does things like this

 

Wondering if Bazunu has had a few bets on over 2.5 goals.

would explain a lot over the last two seasons

 

Will hopefully be posting more on this thread after tomorrow

 

Matt LeTissier being one!

 

Oh hello!

 

Looks like we are arriving just in time for Guardiola's final PL season (allegedly).

Maybe this league might start to have some form of competition again soon.

 

Sounds like Maresca is going to Chelsea. Interesting decision to replace Poch with him. McKenna could go to either Brighton or Man United. So both the fellow promoted teams could be losing their managers.

 

I'm guessing by 'interesting' you mean 'dreadful'?

 

I think Ipswich would be in huge trouble if they lose McKenna, and likewise Brentford if they lose Frank. Whereas I think Leicester could probably cope with losing Maresca.

But whichever of them Chelsea (and/or Utd) appoint, I fully expect them to be sacked within 18 months.

 

Pretty much

 

McKenna apparently set to commit to Ipswich. Huge for them

 

Changing Poch for Maresca is an insane move by Celsea and I hope they get what they deserve.

My mate has just traded in his Alfa Romeo for a Vauxhall Mokka. What Chelsea have done reminds me of this.

 

We are premier league

 

I can’t help but wonder if Ten Hag for Thomas Frank (as rumoured) is similar. From their games against us he seemed very very thin skinned. That won’t work as Man United manager

 

Yeah, that's a crap move too. Not *as* crap, but crap all the same.

 

The Premier League fixtures for the 2024-25 season are set to be released at 9 am BST on Tuesday, June 18, 2024. This announcement will detail all match dates for each of the 20 clubs competing over the 38-game season.

The EPL website hasn't updated with last season's promotions and relegations.

But they do have an article on the Russball effect..

Pochettino to Maresca is an insane downgrade.

Chelsea’s new owners are absolutely mad

 

I so hope they are hyper **** as a result.

 

Based on my record of predicting managerial success they will probably win the league now

 

That's the thing. Poch has actually laid down a good basis for them - he just had to do the **** season bit first, so whoever comes in is working off the back of a solid baseline that he finally got to. Unless of course they do some new mad **** in the window, which is what I'm hoping for.
