None of the teams can afford an lost.

Tonite Leicester will face Arsenal and Chelsea will play Crystal Palace.
Our next game will be against Villa
Haha you know who I will be rooting to win

Chelsea managed to hang on to win 3-2 over Crystal Palace.
Pity that in almost the last min of extra time, CP should have equalised but the shot glazed the post.

Hopefully we can push the 2 teams above all the way by winning all the rest of our games

Yes Arsenal did us a big favour in their draw against Leicester, otherwise it will be more tricky situation for us because goal difference they are in a much superior position. So it is now up to us to make sure we win all games, including the final game vs Leicester

Tonight’s game we can see 1st hand how good this Grealish is but imo no matter how good he does tonight he’s not worth the 80m price tag and our midfield is well stock at the moment, would rather OGS spend the $ on either a right winger or a left sided defender.

It's always better to have competition for places, those out of form and to cover players being injured during the season.

Creative players are always good against the teams that play defensively away and so at home too. Need a quick and tough centre back too.

Wolves is one such team even when they are at home. That's why when the opposing team doesn't attack they have difficulty in scoring. Their style of play is to just either hit long balls to their forwards or wait to counter attack the other team when they break. When they were home against Arsenal recently, they looked like the away team.

We are still not certain if PP would extend his contract. Pogba being Pogba may just surprise Ole by giving all kind of demands and here we go again. Then there is his notorious agent who dislike us to the core. Cos when Ole said he is confident PP will extend, then I tend not to believe. He had been most inaccurate in most of his calls
