How is Cardiff a gimme over Burnley and Leicester who have nothing to play for? Cardiff are only 3 points from safety with one game less than Southampton but the same amount as Brighton. However it is also in the same breath not over for Brighton but City just do not look like losing to those kinda teams, but in fairness nor do Liverpool but if Cardiff go 1-0 down they will fight more than if West Ham or Leicester do as those players are all in holiday mode.



I pointed out why in the post prior. They are really really bad against good teams.

That City game was awful no way it should have been played so quickly afterwards, oh well. City have won the league then, gz to them!


You dont think they have a chance of dropping points the rest of their run ?

Edit: To elaborate

City have:

United - Not that good, but have quality to hurt good teams. Have done it also - Chasing 4th

Burnley - nothing to play for but a dangerous team, also been a bit of a bogey for City recently

Leicester - Another one with nothing to play for but good enough to steal points against anyone

Brighton - In a relegation battle have shown the ability to steal points

Watford - Same as above


Liverpool have:

Cardiff- Also playing to stay alive but they are just so bad. Unlike Brighton they are terrible against big teams.

Huddersfield - Rock bottom they are as good as gone.

Newcastle - nothing to play for, have quality to hurt.

Wolves - Nothing to play for probably either but have quality. Do well against big teams.




Yanited have Everton before that, they lose they are out of top 4 race completely. They are also awful in games vs top 6 this season.
Burnley a bogey team for City? That's not true at all.
Leicester are not good enough to steal points on what they are showing, they are completely changing their style under Rodgers right now and whilst it will be a better performance from them, they are suicidal passing out from the back at the moment which Rodgers encourages so much in his gameplan.
Brighton have not won a game of football since 9th March but yes in theory this is the hardest game but also the game that is at the end of the season, relegation might be sorted by then, well probably will.

Cardiff relegation game first up is the hardest one, they could sit 11 behind the ball, get a lucky penalty and win 1-0 quite easily.
Huddersfield - ez win they shit, manager is a joke
Newcastle are still also technically fighting a relegation fight here and if Cardiff took points of Scouse would be a right hard game for them.
Wolves nothing to play for but they are still the best team vs top 6 due to the style they play. As they are the Robin Hood of English football.

These are my counter points to your points.

These are my counter points to your points.


1) Disagree - United there is plenty of historical evidence to suggest United can play spoiler. I dont expect them to but the odds of them doing so regardless of anything else are higher

2) I didnt say a bogey team, I said a bit of a bogey team, there is a big difference in those two statements. That was also an after thought. That wasnt my main point. I dont know what else to say other than please English better. I do concede that its not the strongest argument however since they did get thrashed this year quite a bit.

3) Their form has been fine and they already stole points of Liverpool. They have nothing to play for but plenty of weapons they have shown plenty second half of the season and their past 4-5 weeks have been pretty normal for a mid table team. Strongly disagree

4) Relegation may not be sorted out by then, I agree that this may not matter much




1) I dont tsee any reality where Cardiff is good enough to sit 11 behind the ball and steal a point. They are simply incapable of doing it. I would be very surprised.

2) Something we can agree on great..

3) ?? So Newcastle is in a relegation fight but Burnley isnt or just not worth mentioning? Regardless the inconsistency of your opinion I dont think either team is in danger but both are dangerous

4) This is an easy thing to agree on aswell. I also thing Liverpool will probably win this game easily also despite Wolves quality.

Got to add the Yanited fans are not interested in helping Scouse win the league at all. Their fans in here are pointing that out a lot too.
Burnley are not "a bit of a bogey" team either, i suggest you state better English next time then? They have one win vs them in league football in over 30 years which was Pellegrini era when Bunrley were monstrous at home in their first spell vs Pellegrini.

In reality i guess Burnley are indeed in a relegation fight looking at their remaining fixtures, i thought they had a game in hand over Newcastle but they don't. They play Arsenal, Chelsea, Everton and City. Offt

The United thing has to be pretty low on your quality of comment. United fans dont want liverpool to win sooo they woudl rather not make the CL ? Are you kidding ?

That wasnt bad English, that was a bad point. Which I conceded. For some reason the thrashings they got this year slipped out of my mind and the game they drew was fresh. Probably because they scored a sick goal that game.

Yeah because they are not getting top 4 either way

But yeah i guess that point needs readdressing after their defeat tomorrow vs Everton. If they win that game then i will stand corrected, but their fans are in a predicament lets put it that way.

Cruical point for Birghton. They have goal difference on Cardiff so that's effectively 4 points Cardiff need to make back on them from 4 games. That might well be enough now for Brighton and it might need to be as they face Spurs, Newcastle, Arsenal and Man City in their final 4 games.

Neil Warnock has had some tough decisions go against Cardiff this season and you could argue they have been unlucky on so many ocasions. It looks liek they are going to fall just short this season.

Meanwhile in The Championship Leeds United Vs Sheffield United for promotion to the Premier League took another swing as Leeds lost to Wigan and Sheffield won.

United should be running a permanent interim manager apparently. That's the only phase where the team seems to play anywhere close to its potential.
