Loved the Leicester ride. It was a great season. Gonna be a very fun relegation battle to end the season though.

Can't believe Newcastle are even a possible relegation club... If they go I'd love Arsenal to look at Winjaldum, underrated stud

With the loss today to West Ham, does that guarantee United finish behind City and miss out on Champions League?

Not yet.

If City lose to Swansea and United beat Bournemouth, United is in. If City tie Swansea and Man U wins by 29 or more goals, Man U advances. :-) I'm saying there's a chance... at the first option... maybe.

Its possible certainly... Swansea just beat West Ham and if Yaya Toure plays then the center of the pitch will be all United :lol:

I've read between 30-38 depending on the currency used but I'm sure a lot of wishful teams have indeed had their dreams crushed

Until United scored the winning goal yesterday, they had never trailed in this year's FA Cup. That's insane

The France game was amazing. Watched Hungary vs Austria and got the dream upset with our 40 year old keeper who wears sweatpants. Reddit loves him.

Listening to these announcers (Landon and someone) constantly butcher "Lavezzi" is brutal

I do not pretend to know a ton about soccer or the strategy but what I notice from our style of play compared to European sides is that the European sides look so much more organized on defense. Our defenders looked so lost yesterday it was sad to watch.
