The novelty wears off for Leicester. Back down to earth they come crashing.

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
 

tbf they made 10 changes from their usual side for a game they gad no interest in.
UEFA need to do something to stop that as it was totally unfair on Copenhagen.

That moron dele ali is in severe danger of wrecking a promising career by being a complete asshole yet again. Deliberately kicking the ball over the goalkeepers head after play had been stopped for his feigned injury. :rolleyes::td:

The odds must be shortening by the day on whether they can keep themselves in the Premiership as once you get stuck in the relegation quagmire it extremely hard to get out of it as we all know.

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
 

There's multiple factors, call me scrooge but last year was a fluke, it was a combination of them having a relatively good season but those you'd expect to win the title had awful seasons.

What happens then? pre-season, you're still Leicester City and you still don't have the financial means of fielding two strong sides (5-0 Porto) and you've fielded your strongest side in the other 5 UCL games but then suffered for that in the league. Even the biggest teams suffer from the same issue so you can imagine City are struggling more than them.

Nice to see a ex player score against Arsenal.:D

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
 

? When did he play for Arsenal?

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
 

A ex Liverpool player Jim.:)

Good grief Man City seem to be doing a Man Utd or Liverpool here.:D

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
 

The stats are even more ridiculous.

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
 

No, really. :P

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
 

The constant criticism by ex footballers of their former clubs.:(:td:

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
 

Well not quite the dominance achieved against Stoke, Burnley, Arsenal and West Ham but a well deserved three points at Old Trafford today. Spurs offered very
little TBH. Hope Henry Mick isn't too badly injured, just starting to play really well. :(

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
 

Yes Micky was the best player on the park but l think he will be out for a few weeks at least Jim.

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
 

Latest report, he is likely to miss next two games, not as bad as first feared.:)

Re: Football Season 2016/2017
 

Spurs are not good enough to compete with the big boys still. And why Poch took of Son off is beyond me kept Kane on.

Kane was poor today. And the one thing that really annoyed me, was the constant whistle blowing an the diving of the Manu Utd players, looking for a free kick or a penalty.

I think personally that if Real Madrid is after Poch. Then Levy let him go if he doesn't kick the players up the rear.

I am a lifelong Spurs fan, and we have always been second best to Arsenal. I think that will happen again this year

We need a Manager like Mourinho, who was constantly ranting at his players - what was Poch doing. Nothing but pointing his fingers about.

Playing against United you need to play 100%

spur's put on second rate rate
