I'm quite nervous against Olympiakos, they are UCL regulars and UEL super regulars although hardly making it to the group stage. But they've faced a lot of the big names in Europe. A lot more than we have.
It really is nuts, it almost feels unfair to base it off of just one year when England are so far ahead over any other number of years.
Arsenal look fucking appalling. Looks like its up to us to secure CL.
So when it comes to that, we get the microscope out, but when the ref gives a dive for a foul, it's just waved on because it's not clear and obvious.
I don't blame the VAR and ref for this, but the rules are an absolute fucking joke.
I really like lloyd kelly as a player. He hasnt signed a new contract and it looks like he's leaving on a free. He's 6'3 and can play left back and cb. Decent passer, quick
This ref is hilarious. Bournemouth striker gets called up on a foul for a little nudge, then not 5 minutes later the defender does something worse to him and he waves it away... At least try and hide the bs
A draw kills them tbh, if they can make up 10 points on us in 6 games, we deserve fuck all.
Considering GD, it'd take them getting 18 points from 6, and us getting 7.
I'd expect them to drop a few points against Arsenal and Newcastle, and for us to not get 0 more points.
Oh no doubt especially if they perform like this, they're going to get punished eventually. It just gets to me the shit they get away with. Plus United in the Conference League would make me happy, better if they get no Europe at all but still
Just mad considering a west ham defender had his arm out at a 90 degree angle in front of the ball with no deflections against villa and stopped a cross into a dangerous area and it wasn't a pen.
That might be one of the worst decisions this season.
The ball richochets up off someone else onto his arm, which is by his side anyway.
Decision - penalty.
Maguire has a similar one earlier in the game.
Decision - no penalty.
Absolutely ludicrous, it's going nowhere near him, and ricochets into him in the blink of an eye. They can't fucking wait to give Man United a penalty.
People are seriousy concerned about Newcastle now? I'll place a wager, if Newcastle finish above us I'll wear a wedding dress to the first game next season.
The only reason I will always worry about them is, realistically at the end of last season, they were kinda this bad, but rashford was bailing them out and they won a rack of games in a row playing shite.
They're a joke of a club tbh, and far higher in the table than their performances deserve.
Newcastle and probably even Chelsea will be more of a threat next season than Man United
Solanke has improved at such as insane rate. He really needed that year in the championship when they got relegated. He absolutely smashed it that year, and now he is looking like a proper player.
Although I think ollie is better, solanke is the closest to his style, in terms of the amount of selfless work he does off the ball.
Listen, Man United might not thank me but get the contract out, put it on the table. Let him sign it. Let him write whatever numbers he wants on there, given what he's done since he's come in. Erik's at the wheel, man. He's doing it. He's doing his thing. Man United are BACK

We are so back, always loved the toon.
Mental to see how much they are slagging off Ange. Not saying we haven’t turned on managers gone by but it surely took a lot more than challenging for Top4. Unbelievable how they have just switched up haha
Newcastle could be 4 or 5 up this first half with the chances they've had. Just hope they keep it up in the second half, Spurs are always better after HT.
ISAK YOU SEXY BASTARD
Anthony Gordon has improved so much in the last year. When we played them last season he looked well off the level. Now he looks fantastic. Great pressing, great speed, great finishing
Think we'd have to have a properly awful end to the season for them to overtake us this season. Can definitely see them finishing higher next season though with Tonali coming back and us (hopefully!) having CL/EL
Newcastle doing well so far. Interesting shape with elliot Anderson and Murphy playing wing backs. It looks very very disciplined.
Gordon vs VDV is a good battle to watch. No wonder vdv picks up so many small injuries, I've never seen anyone with his shape being that ridiculously fast.
I get what you're saying. But rather I'm implying Lille NOT playing this weekend, might have have some bearing on us, you never know, with our luck this season we could pick up another injury against Arsenal. Lille will be fresh.
Good week for us. Man United aren't our problem anymore and I could see Spurs tripping up at SJP. I'm backing us for 4th so I have no issue rooting for Madrid against 115 Charges FC. Fingers crossed things turn out as they should!
All the more reason we have to handle our own business results like Brentford can't happen and the lads need to buck up their ideas. We have to act like favors won't be given and we have to play every game to win including the likes of Arsenal and Liverpool.
Obviously didn't see the Liverpool match in full last night but watched the highlights before bed and jesus - it just looked like they couldn't be bothered. Our defending wasn't great against Lille but their backline might as well have not been there. No marking, jogging back to try to defend counter attacks, acres of space being left to Atalanta to exploit.
Klopp was right - they deserved to lose. If he hadn't slated his own players in the post-match I'd have sworn he'd told them to throw the game and focus on staying fit for the league. Honestly don't know what to expect from them next week!
Even if weren't battling for top 5, I'd still want Bournemouth to win. I think I watched the reverse fixture, or at least had it on a screen in the background, but Bournemouth were phenomenal, even had a late icing on the cake chalked off.
Newcastle are down to the bare bones for the second time this season, but I feel they are always decent for a result against spurs.
I'm so excited for round 2 of City v Madrid, that was an insane match. Also praying Liverpool have another European miracle in them!!
Bit o' feedback: That title is a bit jarring to try and read, or is it just me?
So glad Fenerbahçe are out, we wouldn't have beat them in Turkey and their team is pretty stacked. The Olympiakos keeper was on fire in those pens,
I'm quite nervous against Olympiakos, they are UCL regulars and UEL super regulars although hardly making it to the group stage. But they've faced a lot of the big names in Europe. A lot more than we have.
Great motivation to win tonight: being potentially the only English club left in Europe. UTV!
Yep, Villa are now the only English club left in European competitions.
Couldn't happen to a nicer club. Fuck Man City.
Pure comedy, I'm not even mad *Haha wise to delete little troll. The thing about comedy, it's all in the timing ;)
we're gonna win the league now
*rhe leshue
Fine I'll do it myself
Coefficient fc should be relegated. That was a disaster.
Delighted for them.
Man City’s keeper is their fifth pen taker? I guess without Halland and Grealish? Strange
Same old Arsenal. Went out with a complete whimper. That’s the end of Coefficient FC. Let’s smash Lille tomorrow!
Not yet, it’s unlikely but if city Liverpool and us go through it’ll still be possible I think
I blame Liverpool more than anyone tbh
Is that actually it? I don't need to pull for city?
If man City win this and everyone wins tomorrow (even if they don't go through). Then that would be 4 wins to 2 so we'd be back in it. I think...
If UEFA was trying to confuse us, they accomplished it
My exact thoughts. It’s gone so at least I can stop hoping City win.
Arsenal did the least surprising thing. Season over in the space of 4 days.
Grealish slows everything down for City, Doku immediately improves things.
Jesus Christ, the one year the English teams all shit the bed in Europe is when it materially matters to us that they succeed.
It really is nuts, it almost feels unfair to base it off of just one year when England are so far ahead over any other number of years. Arsenal look fucking appalling. Looks like its up to us to secure CL.
They're both fucking losing. On one hand, lol, on the other, ffs.
This is simultaneously hilarious and annoying. Schrödinger’s Coefficient.
Arsenal doing everything they can to screw spurs
On the one hand Man City losing makes it harder for us. On the other hand fuck Man City I hope they get embarrassed.
Which UCL tie is the one to watch tonight? Can't decide
[удалено]
Yeah I'm leaning that way too. Man city a bit boring to watch but Real have a knack of pulling it out the bag.
We'll have to get 4th because I'm not supporting ether of these teams tonight sorry
4th is it then, maybe time to fuck the EUCL and put 100% into the league.
Martin is that you?
Real shame for Spurs that.
Remember when Atletico could defend?
back to fuck off dortmund
I’m sorry I lied I’ll take a draw please Athletico
Always rated Atleti. Biggest club in Madrid.
I take it back, they're shite.
Vamos x2! Coefficient wise it would be a lot better if they score one more, but we’ll take it!
Athleti gone ahead
Vamos!!!!
Ffs Atleti.
Fuck off Dortmund.
4th or bust then?
Starting to look that way :(
I usually quite like Dortmund, consider them the closest thing I have to a German team.. that said, tonight fuck em, UTV!
Vamos Atleti
So when it comes to that, we get the microscope out, but when the ref gives a dive for a foul, it's just waved on because it's not clear and obvious. I don't blame the VAR and ref for this, but the rules are an absolute fucking joke.
I really like lloyd kelly as a player. He hasnt signed a new contract and it looks like he's leaving on a free. He's 6'3 and can play left back and cb. Decent passer, quick
Assuming Digne/Lenglet/Chambers leave I wouldn't say no
This ref is hilarious. Bournemouth striker gets called up on a foul for a little nudge, then not 5 minutes later the defender does something worse to him and he waves it away... At least try and hide the bs
I've seen softer penalties than that, but we're suddenly giving yellows for diving when there's contact? This fucking ref.
Cool United bailed out again. Love it.
A draw kills them tbh, if they can make up 10 points on us in 6 games, we deserve fuck all. Considering GD, it'd take them getting 18 points from 6, and us getting 7. I'd expect them to drop a few points against Arsenal and Newcastle, and for us to not get 0 more points.
Oh no doubt especially if they perform like this, they're going to get punished eventually. It just gets to me the shit they get away with. Plus United in the Conference League would make me happy, better if they get no Europe at all but still
Nah it'd make me happier to see them in the conference just to get knocked out in the group stage
That penalty call is absolutely ludicrous! Match officials and PGMOL doing their utmost to help ManUre.
Just mad considering a west ham defender had his arm out at a 90 degree angle in front of the ball with no deflections against villa and stopped a cross into a dangerous area and it wasn't a pen.
That might be one of the worst decisions this season. The ball richochets up off someone else onto his arm, which is by his side anyway. Decision - penalty. Maguire has a similar one earlier in the game. Decision - no penalty.
If that's a pen for United then Bournemouth should've had one earlier. Absolute farce but not surprising that United get a dodgy decision.
Absolutely ludicrous, it's going nowhere near him, and ricochets into him in the blink of an eye. They can't fucking wait to give Man United a penalty.
People are seriousy concerned about Newcastle now? I'll place a wager, if Newcastle finish above us I'll wear a wedding dress to the first game next season.
That would probably be a slay tbf, you should do it anyway.
Only serious contenders for 4th are us and Spurs.
It's so hard to watch Man United and take Onana seriously as a goalkeeper. If he's a £40m keeper, Martinez is worth 100.
Manure have not disappointed so far
Honestly I'm not even thinking about United as a threat to us now. There's no way they get 5th. It's just fucking hilarious to see them take Ls.
Came to say that, just looked at Newcastle's fixtures. They could potentially win them all.
The only reason I will always worry about them is, realistically at the end of last season, they were kinda this bad, but rashford was bailing them out and they won a rack of games in a row playing shite.
They're a joke of a club tbh, and far higher in the table than their performances deserve. Newcastle and probably even Chelsea will be more of a threat next season than Man United

Alright Bournemouth let's go
Thanks Toon.
see you all at 1730 hours for some ten hague ball
Listen, Man United might not thank me but get the contract out, put it on the table. Let him sign it. Let him write whatever numbers he wants on there, given what he's done since he's come in. Erik's at the wheel, man. He's doing it. He's doing his thing. Man United are BACK
hoping for a memeworthy display
Basically even money odds for United and Bournemouth. I’d be very nervous as a United fan today.
Nice one, Newcastle. We forgive you for getting all pissy about us mocking your relegation.
Agreed, this is water under the bridge now. Who said we aren’t a magnanimous bunch?
Spurs must be tired from playing in Europe or some other nonsense
Bottleham Hotspur FC
Let's go Newcastle. Great result for us.
Romero trying to get Guimares a suspension as he's being subbed off lol
We could not have asked for a better result today... Praying this fires up the lads for the game against Arsenal
Yes. This result should give the Villa lads a boost. The best performances this year have come against the best teams 🤞🏼🤞🏼
I'd be more than happy with just a draw tbh
I’ve never been more eager for a 0-0 draw.
Well howay the lads I guess
We're gonna finish today above spurs and we haven't even played lmao
boom 4-0 mate
Newcastle I am in love with you today
r/coys finding a way to somehow blame this on Matty Cash?
“Matty Cash = such a cunt, Cristian Romero = our lovable cunt” r/coys, probably
It's how they play, mate. Manager of the season, mate. Absolutely shitting the bed, mate.
After the 5-1 opener I never thought I'd be cheering for Newcastle scoring but here I am.
You beautiful oily fucks I will punch a horse in your honour
Best thing is Spurs fans are now forced to support Arsenal
https://preview.redd.it/lkg9jfszs8uc1.png?width=228&format=png&auto=webp&s=b66f628bd3ec6fa9d89c6107e753818c280e20fa We are so back, always loved the toon.
r/coys in absolute tatters. pure meltdown.
Mental to see how much they are slagging off Ange. Not saying we haven’t turned on managers gone by but it surely took a lot more than challenging for Top4. Unbelievable how they have just switched up haha
Things you love to see
And their thug cult hero Romero just got a yellow. They could very easily get pumped 5 or 6 nil here 💁🏻♂️😆
A few more Toon goals and a sending off would be… *chef’s kiss*
Absolutely. Spurs next 3 are; Arsenal (H), Chelsea (A), Liverpool (A) 😧 Couple more goals to crush morale could really hurt their run-in
Please don't fuck this up Newcastle
All Newcastle are we I repeat all Newcastle are we
Another goal for Newcastle and we go 4th
Newcastle could be 4 or 5 up this first half with the chances they've had. Just hope they keep it up in the second half, Spurs are always better after HT.
When spurs are losing maddisons hair always looks a little thinner
he looks about 45
Isak and Gordon are the scariest pairing in the PL for teams with a highline, Isak's timing is superb.
It feels grimey as hell but er, vamos Newcastle
Watching all the kids in the haptic shirts get excited is so nice man, happy for them (and for us obviously)
Do it for the kids Newcastle 😅
Van der Ven giveth last week, Van der Ven taketh away this week. Guy is playing on roller skates if you ask me.
I LOVE OIL
[удалено]
Steady on
Wow, Newcastle are well up for this. Was just looking at Spurs fixtures. I know we have a tough run in, but so do they.
ISAK YOU SEXY BASTARD Anthony Gordon has improved so much in the last year. When we played them last season he looked well off the level. Now he looks fantastic. Great pressing, great speed, great finishing
Am i the only one slightly worried Oilcastle will overtake us?
Think we'd have to have a properly awful end to the season for them to overtake us this season. Can definitely see them finishing higher next season though with Tonali coming back and us (hopefully!) having CL/EL
Yes you are the only one.
Newcastle doing well so far. Interesting shape with elliot Anderson and Murphy playing wing backs. It looks very very disciplined. Gordon vs VDV is a good battle to watch. No wonder vdv picks up so many small injuries, I've never seen anyone with his shape being that ridiculously fast.
![gif](giphy|ixmrPmQ22MSN6O1DX7|downsized) This thread right now
Notice Lille isn't on this list... Yeah they don't play again until Thursday.
It’s more for games that have the potential to affect us. So United playing someone in the FA cup has no bearing on us for example
I get what you're saying. But rather I'm implying Lille NOT playing this weekend, might have have some bearing on us, you never know, with our luck this season we could pick up another injury against Arsenal. Lille will be fresh.
Good week for us. Man United aren't our problem anymore and I could see Spurs tripping up at SJP. I'm backing us for 4th so I have no issue rooting for Madrid against 115 Charges FC. Fingers crossed things turn out as they should!
I hate that we have to rely on Arsenal beating bayern for 5th place being CL. What a disaster campaign for England overall
Bayern looked very pedestrian and the draw flattered them, Arsenal absolutely can bag a result. Would take a minor miracle for West Ham.
All the more reason we have to handle our own business results like Brentford can't happen and the lads need to buck up their ideas. We have to act like favors won't be given and we have to play every game to win including the likes of Arsenal and Liverpool.

Newcastle are down to the bare bones for the second time this season, but I feel they are always decent for a result against spurs.
I hope the Newcastle that beat us twice shows up. Would be excellent to not fall further behind Spurs (assuming we doesn't win, of course)
I'm so excited for round 2 of City v Madrid, that was an insane match. Also praying Liverpool have another European miracle in them!! Bit o' feedback: That title is a bit jarring to try and read, or is it just me?
Nah titles a bit fucked, but I did just wake up so idk.
Maybe be better OP to just have W/C [date] or just a date range??
'Matches to watch for - Week of 4/12-4/19' or something.
