Premier League 20/21

Leicester play with a ridiculous amount of confidence. The speed and zip in which they pass it with is so satisfying to watch, never hesitating or shying any from the more difficult passes. We've gotten a lot closer to that in recent weeks, but the likes of Xhaka are too much of an inhibitor.

Spurs have been an irrelevance for most of my football supporting life. When Campbell left them, they weren't even a top half team. Just dirt. Now under Poch they've started to believe they can do something material

Even under Poch they weren't doing any better than the Wenger edition that almost always came fourth and made people question if our players should leave.

Yup. Funnily enough Mourinho has the first chance for silverware in about a dozen years. Get in line for your Carabao Cup mugs.

I seem to remember Robbie Keane crying the last time they won the league cup.

Maddison is at the heart of everything good they do too. He's better than Grealish for my money.

Maddison is probably better in that 10 role, Grealish is better in that wide attacking mid role.

They've already created cup final memorabilia 😆

Levy is going cash in while he can rather than take a chance on the idea that they may actually win.

Barnes's arrival from their academy has also been very timely. Very under rated player.

Good goal by Rashford.

They might be managed by a tactically limited coach but the individual quality of their attacking players is on another level compared to us.

Fantastic volley by Maximin. No chance for De Gea.

Clrnc

That's a ridiculous finish by Saint Maximim. Always loved a Volley like this. Reminds me of Henry's goal against Boro

Klaus

Willock is having a grand time at Newcastle so far.

Potter's brighton is a ridiculous team. Plays with so much attacking intent and patterns but cannot score to save their lives. Their attacking intensity is impressive though

Klaus

The draws are killing them. I think it's impressive though how he took Premier League's oldest and least technical squad, widely predicted to crash down through the divisions again, and transformed them into a freeflowing football team on a no-budget. Hard to believe he got guys like Lewis Dunk and Daniel Burn playing it out from the back with real zip and composure. I think they have something good going on and I hope they stay up so they can continue to build on it. Just one or two good attacking players in the summer could transform them.

Clrnc

Andddd they concede a last min goal. Story of their seasons under Potter. Utterly dominate games but lose or draw mostly

Klaus

Jesus. Bitter pill to swallow for them.

goon

Brighton had an xG of 2.6 last night. Palace had an xG of 0.18. Of course Brighton lose 2-1 😆

Clrnc

Brighton as usual was overplaying like hell. They passed so many times in the opponent box to walk the ball in its unreal.

But Palace literally only had 2 chances to counter attack and took both 😆 13-0 corners show how dominant Brighton were. 75% possession as hell, was like watching pub players playing peak Barca football. Palace couldn't get out.

I’m defo jumping on Klaus’ Potter bandwagon when Arteta leaves.

Rohit

I am a fan too. It's worth appreciating how he can get such average footballers to confidently and accurately pass it around without too many touches. His football is simple as difficult as it may be for players to execute. He hasn't managed the big names yet so don't know how he deals with those challenges but then he is surely a top football coach.

Claudius

If his name was Potterino, I’d give him a second look.
But he’s been impressive. It’s a pity that teams like Everton are hiring guys like Ancelotti. Where is he supposed to go. Would Arsenal fans really welcome him as exceptional as he has been if Arteta flops? I think there would be a celebrity lust
