so thats at least 10 games less than a CL 1/4 finalist - I know what you mean but they could be dangerous without the distraction of those games as much as lol worthy for not having euro games at all

I dont buy into that at all for any "big club". Yes it cost Spurs last season because it was a whole new ball game for them but we won the PL and CL a short time ago and have done consistantly well in multiple competitions over the years as have other clubs.

I remember in 99 players saying they much prefered playing than training. Long periods between games actually probably means the "first XI" will be rested less and squad players will have had less action under their belt when called upon if that makes sense.
 
I can't believe there is nothing on Sky tomorrow! Hopefully there is a decent stream for either Wigan v Norwich or Blackburn v Wolves because I think the two teams that lose out of them 4 will make up two of the three that go down.


p.s. it'll be Norwich and Blackburn losing, I've already decided. :p :D
 
Sky aren't allowed to broadcast any 15:00 games due to FA rules. I may (or may not ;)) stream the Liverpool game.

I'll be watching Newcastle v Arsenal though on ESPN! :D
 
Rafael is reported to have dislocated his right shoulder again in training (he originally did this in 2009 if info is true)

It was put back in place immediately - but he is seeing a specialist to see if surgery is required.

Should mean Fabio/ Smalling getting a few games at RB - for better or worse.

Hope Raf doesnt need surgery though
