[tokeweed]

Liverpool -Stoke BTTS
Swansea - Chelsea BTTS
Burnley +0
Leicester - Crystal Palace BTTS

Good luck everyone and happy Saturday  

Care to share the odds on your bets?  Love the Burnley one btw...  You not gonna risk it and go for the -0/-0.5?  

They were +EV for me last year.  Not so much this year tho.  

Liverpool vs Stoke
Swansea vs Chelsea
Newcastle vs WBA

Bolded teams to win - 3 game parlay

At what odds?

[Granxis]

Liverpool is very close to finishing the first four places in the league, if Stoke City wants to stay in the league, they should win 3 points in this league. In Stoke City, Stafylidis and Johnson are unclear. Stoke City has to take risks. I believe they will produce a score against veteran Liverpool. My preference is over 2,5 goals.

The relegation zone is looking sweet right now so i'm gonna try my luck in a couple of games:

Swansea vs Chelsea / BTTS @2.10 and Chelsea win @1.44
Southampton vs Bournemouth / over 2.5 @1.66 and Southampton win @1.68

I think there's a high chance that Swansea will drop points against Chelsea who desperately needs a win to put pressure on Spurs for that last spot to the CL next season.
And a key game for Southampton today, a win means getting closer to Swansea (1 point behind), they better play their hearts out today.

I can't wait for Sunday and I'm bit emotional to, it's Arsene wenger last match against Manchester, well we don't know if he'll get a chance ever again in PL but I'll surely miss him a lot.

Not only it's his last game vs Man Utd, but it'll be the last time that we see one of the biggest rivalries in the EPL: Wenger vs Mourinho.

Arsenal needs a new coach as their whole leading office is in need of a complete reset.
They have solid players but if the leader is not liked by half the team and the fans are calling for his resignation (which it seems like he was forced no matter what he is saying after the fact) then it is time for an overhaul and get back to business.
Leave the past behind to die.

I want Arsenal to get a new young coach. Do not look for an old and white-haired coach, this season Arsenal are in a period where the desire of the fans that Wenger's departure is fulfilled but currently has not seen who will be the next coach.

I can't wait for Sunday and I'm bit emotional to, it's Arsene wenger last match against Manchester, well we don't know if he'll get a chance ever again in PL but I'll surely miss him a lot. Though I don't want him to win lol, as a gift we should score 8 goals if you remember. I'm sure he'll receive a guard of honour he deserves it.

Farewell to Mr. Arsene Wenger for Sunday's match.
He served well but the old guy does not have anymore lives left in his bag of tricks.
The old wizard.
Unless they do score those 8 goals then I will definitely say he still have some magic left in those fingers of his.
But then again Mourinho's hair is white to be fair.
I do believe that is from stress and not from age.

In other news, Liverpool dropped points to Stoke and they shut down the Mo Salah show.
Alot of hand balls not called on Stoke in the goal box so you know who the referees were in favor of in this game.

Oh goddamns it. Took a long parlay today and the first leg already failed (needed Liverpool to win at a -1.5 handicap) so I've lost the day without the rest of the games even starting. Suppose they've got all their eyes on the follow up in Rome for CL but their 2nd place bid looks really week now. All depends on how Spurs perform I suppose. Two points from 2 games. Oh well.

@Lionidas: I did feel like Stoke finally found a way to close up Salah, but then others have tried the same without success. He seems to be one of those players everyone knows how they play and yet can't stop. Pool had Suarez in that same mould, Bayern has their Robben also exactly the same.

The match ended with 0-0 and it was very disappointing for Liverpool fans. Terutma because of it, Mohamed Salah had to postpone the record-breaking premier league goal. The record of premier league season's goals is 31 goals and Salah has scored 31 goals. One more goal and he will be the newest record holder. But he had to postpone it.

it will be diffecult match for Salah next game to score in because they're going to face Chelsea whom gave still been struggling but they are getting good results they now won their previous 3 league games and they were away from home and they are going to play the next fixture at home so it will be much more difficult to see Salah score in Stamford Bridge but if he is hangry enough and persistent to break the record he will break it in that game or the next the problem is with them securing a qualifications to UCL next season they don't have a lot to lose in this game and Klopp may try to save Salah  to be ready for the next UCL game against Roma

I am wondering now that City are confirmed champions are they going to take their foot off the pedal a little bit metaphorically speaking against West Ham today? I really like how the draw is priced @ 6 odds. West Ham are also just 3 points clear from the relegation zone. I think I am gonna bet the draw.

As for the United - Arsenal game I am gonna bet the usual BTTS & o 2.5 goals. Cheers and happy Sunday everyone

Knowing Pep, I guess he'd rather keep pushing and try going for 100 points.  It's been a while since we saw an EPL club acquire 100 points in a season (or did any club finish with 100 points in the EPL era?).  That's gonna be quite a feat if they get it.

[tomahawk9]

my bet for Man Utd vs Arsenal ~ BTTS @1.76 and Under 3.5 goals @1.60.

Can't remember a club getting 100 pts but if i'm not mistaken back in 2005 Mourinho's Chelsea got around 95 points or something so I think they're the closest to 100.

[tokeweed]

^  Then Pep is def going after that record and set the highest points they can muster this season to set a new EPL record.

I think Manchester United's performance to be sufficient, Romero is the only missing reserve player before the Arsenal game. Manchester United wants to finish 2nd place in the league. In this regard, is advantageous. Arsenal will rotate but I expect that the players who do not play will perform well. My preference will be over 2,5 goals.

yeah from what it looks like the Reds are the most favorite they are playing at home while the visitors have more important game coming in the next few days Arsène Wenger has already indicated a few weeks ago that The Gunners will fully focus on the Europa League and what is going to happen in the Premier League still makes little difference at Arsenal. so i'm not expecting a lot of action in this game and rarely will see more then 3 goals also it will be the last game between the two rivals Mourinho and Wenger. the reds manager will be looking to add another winn under his name against Wenger so i'm going with Man United to win and under 3.5 goals.

A late winning goal from Manchester United against an unknown Arsenal squad (just a parable). Really happy ending for Manchester United, before there was a goal on the thrashing by the referee, shortly afterwards a real goal happened and the boom, the victory also belonged to Jose Mourinho.

yeah it was a great ending that ended the long struggle in an elegant way . After 19 Match Mourinho won 10 Draw 7 and Wnger won 2. And for the game honestly it was not that great match because of Arsenal was not playing with their main squad and I think that Lingard is not as big as a team like United he could shine at high middle teams he is more suited to them.
But the sad thing is to see a talent like Martial not getting the time in field I don't know why Mourinho not play Sanchez on right side while Martial left side I would seen more improvment that way.

With this win Manchester united success and fixed finish with 2nd position on premier league this season and man united also will play on champions league next season. Nice goal though at the end, I thought the match will ended with draw 1-1.

Yes United seems to be ending the league rather on a very good form because if they had played this way all season i bet they would have been the champions by now. I hope this will be emulated throughout the pre-season and carried to next season.

Did you guys see what parting gift Sir Alex Ferguson and Mourinho gave to Arsene Wenger? I think it was some kind of a mini trophy but I am not sure if it was for the Premier League or for the UEFA Europe League haha

LOOOOOL!  Mou of all people!  

At least he was given something that he can bring home with him for his own personal trophy cabinet.  

Edit:  Look at that Wenger smile.  He's so 'happy'.  Lmao!

[Wendigo]

I think the only genuinely happy person on that picture is Sir Alex Ferguson haha  Mourinho has a somewhat forced expression and Wenger looks like he is kinda bewildered lol By the way, has Wenger won any major trophies with Arsenal since he became the manager?

Found this on Google:

When was the last time Arsenal won the league?
Arsenal fifth period of success came with the appointment of Arsène Wenger in 1996. Under him, Arsenal won a second league and cup double in 1997–98 and then a third in 2001–02. In addition, the club were victorious in the 2002–03 and 2004–05 FA Cups, and won the Premier League in 2003–04 without losing a single match.
