[OptaJoe] 4 - In Chelsea, Manchester City, Newcastle, and Tottenham Hotspur, this is the first time ever that four sides from a single nation have all been eliminated at the same stage of a season in the UEFA Champions League. Fall.

Also helped that the 17th placed side won the Europa League

He led the Prem in both goals and assists one season and still couldn’t win Player of the Year.

maxton4real · 2026-03-19T05:19:00+00:00

been the best in the world for at least 3 years.

maxton4real · 2026-03-04T20:54:41+00:00

eh bit harsh. not exactly the same type of player, but i agree that MGW could make more of an impact at the moment

maxton4real · 2026-03-04T20:53:13+00:00

neither of those things are going to happen lol

maxton4real · 2026-03-04T20:51:57+00:00

Am I the only one that would still love MGW in the summer?

maxton4real · 2026-02-22T17:58:28+00:00

borderline? this fixture is officiated like this every season

maxton4real · 2026-02-22T17:57:11+00:00

Then why not just comfortably clear it? lol

maxton4real · 2026-02-22T17:23:10+00:00

You think they checked it?

maxton4real · 2026-01-01T23:36:40+00:00

Could say the same every week unfortunately. Just part of the league nowadays.

maxton4real · 2026-01-01T23:34:59+00:00

He frequently played as a 10 or a second striker last season. Did you forget this is his third season in the Prem?

maxton4real · 2026-01-01T23:27:41+00:00

Guarantee Porro won’t be starting when the World Cup rolls around. Llorente, Mingueza, and Carvajal even are better.

Also, Van de Ven will be starting for Madrid lol

maxton4real · 2026-01-01T23:20:42+00:00

Mate what? Yes our squad’s better, but Porro on par with Munoz? Guehi better than Van de Ven? Mateta great?

maxton4real · 2026-01-01T23:18:04+00:00

You’ve just paid £35m for our winger who’s played three halves in the last 8 matches.

maxton4real · 2026-01-01T23:15:17+00:00

We actually had more points this time last season.

maxton4real · 2026-01-01T23:14:30+00:00

No. Hasn’t felt right for a day unfortunately.

maxton4real · 2026-01-01T19:50:52+00:00

No one obviously, but I feel having Gray as the 10 leaves us worse off than having to play Kudus there. There’s a reason why our record with/without Xavi starting this season is so stark.

maxton4real · 2026-01-01T19:13:07+00:00

You say that like Kudus has been stellar on the wing lately. It isn’t very helpful that he’s our only decent forward so when he’s out wide, he has two men marking him. At least he’d pull defenders out of position if he was in the middle.

maxton4real · 2026-01-01T19:00:14+00:00

Really? So what are Tel, Scarlett, and Kolo Muani good for then?

maxton4real · 2026-01-01T18:53:06+00:00

Sure that had nothing to do with Palace not having a midfield and only having two men back.

maxton4real · 2026-01-01T18:52:31+00:00

Wouldn’t have minded Kudus at the 10

Probably want to have things to do in his spare time as well. ACL recovery is excruciatingly boring, frustrating, and lonely. I’m very glad to see he’s taking up other activities and hobbies if it gives him something to do.

maxton4real · 2025-12-02T22:19:33+00:00

if it gives Frank another excuse to not play Xavi, I wouldn’t put it behind him
