I am not happy with the manner they treated Maresca. He was doing a reasonable job before he resigned. If Maresca had Palmer consistently from the beginning of the season, Chelsea would have had more points and everything would have been different. Now they have to start all over again with a new manager bringing in his own ideas.

Arsenal are at home to Chelsea, then away at Brighton. Then they have home games against Everton and Bournemouth. I cannot see Arsenal winning all four games. Manchester City are away at Leeds United, then home against Nottingham Forest. Then they are away at West Ham United and Chelsea. In their four games I cannot see Manchester City winning all of their games either.

He wasn't dismissed for poor performance, it was way more than that. They hate being questioned about anything players related and that was exactly what Enzo the Mascara was up to in his last days at Chelsea. He was already frustrated about lack of ambitions from the sporting directors. We lost a good coach and they'd regret sooner or later when he goes to somewhere else and start dominating.

I'm looking forward to Arsenal -Brighton game; the Chelsea game is hyped up, the real deal is Brighton - they're the only ones I can trust to stop Arsenal.

Yeah..  I guess with Arsenal having a drought, winning the league will be a huge deal for the club since when did they win it last?  It was the Invincibles season with Arsene Wenger.  Was it 2004?  Lol.  That's a long drought. 

And winning the UCL with the EPL..?  It will make Arteta immortal and open doors for a Barca or Real Madrid gig for him in the future.

Anyway, can't wait for Arsenal vs Chelsea. 

Yes, since 2004 invincibles they haven't won again - they're in a better position to win the CL than the premier League this season if they learn from last season mistakes. They're the only unbeaten team in the CL right?

Don't expect too much from us against Arsenal - they are going to drop points but not against us.

If Rosenior fails to give the fans and the board the success they crave, fingers will be pointed towards those that fired Maresca and hired Rosenior. They have to stop the endless cycle of hiring and firing, they have to trust the coach/manager they appoint and support him.

I'm looking forward to Arsenal -Brighton game; the Chelsea game is hyped up, the real deal is Brighton - they're the only ones I can trust to stop Arsenal.

After they thrashed Tottenham 4-1, they probably feel they can beat any team and stroll to the Premier League title. When they lose a couple of games (maybe one against Brighton), it will be a reminder to them that winning the Premier League is not going to be easy. They have aright to celebrate their win in the North London derby but that will be forgotten when they play their next game.

These are the next set of games taking place:

Friday 27th February
Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Aston Villa

Saturday 28th February
Bournemouth vs Sunderland
Burnley vs Brentford
Liverpool vs West Ham United
Newcastle United vs Everton
Leeds United vs Manchester City

Didn't know they're still unbeaten in the UCL.  Wow, that's good.  But I haven't really been following it since they changed the format.  I mean yeah I guess the current format gives a little bit of fairness for the inferior clubs but the old one with the groups is just way more exciting.  The new one took the excitement out of it for me.  It's like watching another league game.

But as always, rooting for the EPL clubs.

Winning a derby match is emotional and Arsenal would feel wonderful after beating Tottenham Hotspur with that big winning result. It's helpful for their club to change latest bad results to a new streak with this important win. There are 10 more matches for Arsenal to take the trophy, it's not too long time but no longer short time, 10 remaining matches will be very challenging for Arteta and his players with pressure increases match by match especially when Manchester City are racing tirelessly behind Arsenal.

Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Aston Villa

Saturday 28th February
Bournemouth vs Sunderland
Burnley vs Brentford
Liverpool vs West Ham United
Newcastle United vs Everton
Leeds United vs Manchester City

These matches with some big clubs are competing for the title and top four positions would be very exciting for fans but with coaches and players, they will play these matches with a lot of stress and pressure. I only feel confident that Manchester City will have three points, while I am really unsure about Liverpool and Aston Villa even they will play against weaker teams.

The boards are shameless, they called the shots together and no one is going to take the fall if things go South- it's a cycle, if one doesn't work they go to the next available one. The Sporting director and the recruitment teams have been horrible at their jobs and still have them. This is the new Chelsea.

^  The genius Moyes double chance vs Newcastle away at 2.06. 

Everton away from home turf are pussies and also act like the Italian prostitutes; they spread legs easily at any slight chance. I wouldn't recommend 

[tokeweed]

^  Lol oh...  But check Newcastle's form at home in the EPL and check Everton's away form in the EPL.    It's a decent away form imho.  Three wins, a couple of draws and a loss.  One of the wins was against Aston Villa who was getting a decent streak at home before Everton came in.  Lol.

And you think Chelsea could take a point from their match against Arsenal this weekend?  Could be another decent bet for a double chance for Chelsea.

Quite tempting, looks like another perfect 1-1 draw, but I'm looking at the corner markets on this one only - Chelsea 03.5 corners is 2.15; lower risk, higher rewards.

Do you want the truth? I don't see myself betting my money on Everton games ever.

[tokeweed]

^  I bet on Everton in some spots for the lulz.    As we already know, the genius Moyes could out fox any manager given the opportunity.  Could their next match be one of those spots?  Dunno...  But just looking at the recent home and away form for Newcastle and Everton respectively, it could be.  Lol.

But for all we know it could end up with 2 - 1 for a Newcastle W...  Then again I say two words, genius Moyes. 

Anyway, you think Chelsea has a chance in this spot?

If you made the bet, you're X2 richer today! Your " genius Moyes" delivered again - I saw the scores and my mind just went straight to your tips - hope I didn't ruin it for you  next time I'll believe your Moyes.

Newcastle United could be struggling with fatigue and in a few days days, they will play 3 games in a week.

It's a derby, our chance to salvage their season so yeah, we could do it.

[JollyGood]

These are the games taking place today Sunday 1st March:

Brighton and Hove Albion vs Nottingham Forest
Fulham vs Tottenham Hotspur
Manchester United vs Crystal Palace
Arsenal vs Chelsea

If Fulham inflict another defeat on Tottenham they will remain just four points above the relegation zone. Tottenham are in serious danger of getting relegated.

As for the London derby, if Arsenal take all three points against Arsenal, they will send a signal to Manchester City that they will fight until the end of the season for the Premier League title. In the other game, Manchester United will probably beat Crystal Palace and then overtake Aston Villa to move into 3rd place (behind Manchester City and Arsenal).

If Fulham inflict another defeat on Tottenham they will remain just four points above the relegation zone. Tottenham are in serious danger of getting relegated.

It feels unreal that Totteham that started the season solid are 4 points away from the relegation zone and they continue to look and play bad. They haven't won a single game in 14 games; that says alot about the club and the players. Nothing on the manager for me.

In the other game, Manchester United will probably beat Crystal Palace and then overtake Aston Villa to move into 3rd place (behind Manchester City and Arsenal).

Well, as expected the owners of London derby came and took the full points to push back pressure on Manchester city. We were terrible as always.

If Tottenham get relegated, it will probably become the biggest news in their history. The sad fact for the Tottenham fans is that it really could happen unless they start winning games and adding to their points. Having a four point cushion above the relegation zone is simply not good enough.

Apart from the final score, I did not read the reports or watch the game therefore have no idea what happened. The result however does point to Chelsea not having much chance of finishing in the top four. If Arsenal do not let the pressure get to them, they can win the Premier League no matter what Manchester City do.

Tottenham still have good quality and can secure their position in Premier League as with 4 points more than the relegation zone, that is still good enough for Tottenham as with clubs in relegation zone and around it, winning one or two matches is really difficult for them. Clubs behind Tottenham must play very well in remaining 10 matches to take over the position of Tottenham and I believe that if Tottenham won't suddenly play too terrible in remaining matches, they will not drop to the relegation zone after the last match of season.

There is a risk participation in UEFA Champions League that can result in less concentration on Premier League, and Tottenham must use their resources as well as pay enough attention on Premier League for their appearance there next season.

They have one of the toughest upcoming fixtures and there's also a Champions league games for them in-between those fixtures. They'd need a lot of motivation to scale through unless the teams below them become extremely poor too to help them stay up..

The officiating was poor as usual but how long are we going to be talking about bad officiating? It's been 4 years already and we still don't have a win against those bastards so the ref excuses is just BS at this point. 4 different managers could not manage a win against Arteta in 4 seasons.

Lolol!!  Tooold yooouu!    The genius Moyes strikes again.  I've been saying it since he returned in the EPL. 

Anyway, looks like we're gonna be having some midweek fixtures then some cup games during the coming weekend?  I wouldn't be too excited if I was an Arsenal fan as I feel like player fatigue will set in as it's an away match and Brighton will take advantage.  This smells like BTTS and a draw all over it.

Dunno tho...

Moyes tactics is boring for the kind of football that I watch though, but kudos to him what he has achieved with Everton this season. Great result for him.

Arsenal can scale through without breaking a sweat if the manager can be flexible with his selections in the coming games; more players are back from injury and enough to rotate around in those fixtures.

If there's anyone who gives them a lot of troubles is Brighton; this season won't be different, it's going to be a lot of goals from both side as usual. BTS & 2.5.

There is no doubt Tottenham have the players in their squad to get out of a relegation battle but the problem is they are not delivering on the pitch. If their new manager can find a way to get the players to work together, they can probably avoid relegation. He just took over the job, he needs time but with just 10 games remaining he might be managing them in the Championship next season.

They have one of the toughest upcoming fixtures and there's also a Champions league games for them in-between those fixtures. They'd need a lot of motivation to scale through unless the teams below them become extremely poor too to help them stay up..

In the end, they are four points above the relegation zone therefore they know what to do in order to avoid relegation. If they do lose Premier League status, they will have nobody but themselves to blame.

You should take over being their manager

Daniel Levy insighted 50% reduction clauses in the player's contracts before he left - if the club get relegated, the players get only 50% of their wages to protect the club financially. Another Daniel Levy masterclass! That should be a motivation for the players to fight to stay up.

We scouting everyone on the market, I won't be surprised if I get recruited to manage the club.

Spurs lost to Fulham yesterday? I think this is the height of it. How on earth have they now become an easy target for any team? Vegetables..!! 5 games, 4 losses, 1 shared point.  We all know the level to which these losses can affect their overall confidence right?

No participation in any UEFA competitions next season for them; no UCL, No EPL, not even their favourite Europa group stage matches. Think it's time to start asking for mentorship from, say Leicester city? Heavens know it'll take them blood and sweat to get back on that 1st league table again.

Tottenham fans can say whatever they want about Levy being tight on the purse strings and not backing the managers but adding the clause made a lot of sense. Most of the Premier League contracts have something similar inserted to protect the clubs from financial disaster in the event they are relegated.

There is a realistic chance Tottenham will be playing in the Championship next season. After Kane left for Bayern Munich they still had some desire to win but after Son left the club they have lost all motivation and momentum.
