Trying to watch both games at the same time is hard. David Luiz's goal

then the Benfica kick to the head

holy shit. Knocked the dude straight out.

yeah that kick against goekhan goenuel should have been an instant red card.

Thats not a red card at all. You can clearly see that Gaitan has his eyes on the ball the whole time, while G?n?l sort of runs in to Gaitan's foot. Honest mistake by Gaitan.

i see your point, but going in an one on one situation like this i more than risky play.

Who do you guys think will be the last team relegated in the EPL? I'd be scared if I was a Newcastle fan right now.

It's hard to say the next game, I think as little as 39 point equals safety. I think Norwich will get fucked, it will be close.

Wigan have three games and 2 are winnable, Home to Swansea today and Home to Villa on the final day. Even if they draw one and win one they will be at 39.
Norwich have to beat West Brom at home this weekend, which will not be easy. I can see them possibly getting a point and then getting hammered by City and then going down on goal difference at 39 points.
Newcastle have to beat QPR away, which is definitely doable. Maybe they can nick a point from Arsenal too at St. James.
Sunderland just need a point against Southampton and they'll be at 39 points with the best goal difference.

decided to leave on a high I guess.

All good things must come to an end. Hopefully he can get someone decent that will do the club justice in there to replace him.

Mourinho for Man U?

chockfullofthat · « **Reply #2505 on:** May 08, 2013, 06:04:58 AM »

Whoever they get it's going to be a downgrade. City to win the league next year

whale · « **Reply #2506 on:** May 08, 2013, 06:19:28 AM »

I don't believe it will be Mourinho, fairly certain he's going back to Chelsea.
I'm guessing Jupp Heynckes or David Moyes.
Most likely Moyes.

Spike Hawke · « **Reply #2507 on:** May 08, 2013, 07:55:38 AM »

Think Moyes would fit the bill, similar temperament and handles the press well. But are Utd looking for someone with a proven winning record or someone who hasn't won anything? Bit of a gamble for a big club. Roy Keane and Gareth Southgate dont have clubs at the moment

That trademark shit is pretty dumb..Vidal does that, Pato too, just to name some..I guess he better be sticking with being an amazing player

As a Sunderland fan this would be perfect, but I can't see it happening, it'll be wigan. Sad to see Fergie go, genuine "end of an era" stuff. But if wigan go down it'll all fit, Martinez to everton and Moyes to Man u??

Spike Hawke · « **Reply #2512 on:** May 09, 2013, 10:05:39 AM »

Thats Moyes signed for 6 years, good luck to him. Tough act to follow. How much time is he going to get before he gets the "vote of confidence" from the board if he doesn't win next seasons EPL?
Benitez for Everton?

Yeah I was saying this prior to Wigan losing during midweek. Looking kind of grim that Wigan will pull the rabbit out of the hat this year.

Also with Moyes, he'll have a lot more money he had with Everton, but giving him a 6 year deal I thought was a bit much. I'd thought they'd give him 2 or 3 years, because if he doesn't live up to the standards they can hire another high profile coach. Now Man U might be tied into him as much as Newcastle is with Pardew. Moyes has a lot more pressure now and will have to juggle the CL as well. I guess Mourinho will go to Chelsea now. Next season will be interesting for sure.

Mooley · « **Reply #2515 on:** May 09, 2013, 03:01:58 PM »

Moyes will be fine, Fergie's just going to pull the strings from behind the scenes now. Half of his contract is most likely a glorified apprenticeship.

Was a keeper for one of my local teams in my youth, played 5 aside not long ago in goals. After skate slams for years, diving about on astro turf really fucked my elbows, knees and hips. Could hardly skate for a couple of weeks till swelling went down. Not doing that again

Spike Hawke · « **Reply #2519 on:** May 11, 2013, 03:05:21 PM »

Super stoked for Wigan. Unexpected for sure, the end of Mancini for sure.
