Team Predicted Points Man City 86 Liverpool 76 Tottenham 69 Arsenal 68 Chelsea 63 Man United 61 Brighton 60 Newcastle 53 Brentford 50 Crystal Palace 49 West Ham 47 Aston Villa 46 Leeds United 45 Southampton 44 Wolves 43 Fulham 42 Leicester City 41 Everton 39 Bournemouth 34 Nottingham Forest 32 Baffling really. If it factors in a sacking then we'd get 50+ but if not then we won't even hit 30. It must have a virus. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunbury Fox Posted 9 September 2022 Share Posted 9 September 2022 (edited) 6 hours ago, Fox92 said: Exactly what I said yesterday. It's just how it works. Brighton fans don't complain when they're taking Potter from Swansea or Maupay from Brentford. But it's the sheer financial dominance that the likes of Chelsea have. It's totally out of scale with most clubs in the league, which is very unhealthy and means they can basically raid the 'other 14' whenever they want. Even if an 'other 14" club tries to resist or is having a great season themselves it makes no difference as Chelsea's vast weight of cash always wins in the end. Kanté leaving to join them after our title win is a great example. Whilst we can't afford to sack our manager Chelsea are busy spending about £40m on changing managers like it's mere pennies they're dealing with, even after spending about £200m plus on players this summer. Personally, I think that is very different to a club in a higher league (Brighton) giving a chance to a manager who has done okay, but not amazingly, at a club in the Championship (Swansea).

Taking 41 points from the next 32 games would mean having to achieve a circa 30% increase in our run rate compared to this calendar year so far.

Between now and World Cup, midweeks are taken up by European football or midweek PL games. And the EFL Cup is 8/9th Nov. Europe group stages conclude a week earlier. At least Klopp will have his excuse for Liverpool being shit. This will be epic, historic, previously unimaginable levels of moaning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The security in London will be on ultra high alert as i imagine the majority of the worlds leaders will be there. And the tens of thousands of people descending on London as The Queen will lie in state over the weekend. I can't see the police wanting to use resources for football.

mohammedsaqib Posted 11 September 2022 Share Posted 11 September 2022 Brighton fans must be feeling like we did when MON left. Just won 5-2, playing really well, fans excited, feeling like you’re on the cusp of something really special. And then poof 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
