12. Fair to say it’s not always the obvious ones to say the least...

[wykikitoon 19899]

13 for me.

I shall add too, a few of them were guesses

[Rayvin 5185]

I'm terrible at these things.

[Rayvin 5185]

Am surprised how long it took for an Italian to score in the PL tbh.

[Howmanheyman 32735]

17 suckers.

 

 

[Andrew 4718]

11 for me, a few where I got to a 50/50 shot between two and got all of those ones wrong

Have things changed that much for the Premier League? In the 90's it was generally Man U winning it, then Arsenal had a few, then Chelsea, then City and now we're going to have new Champions in Liverpool. If anything it's becoming more varied since the 90's.

And CL qualifiers certainly aren't any less varied than they were in the late 90's and 2000's.

Going back a bit, for all the good managers, nobody mentions the scouse cunts were backed in the 60s/70s/80s by the Moores football pools company and always outspent the rest.

Brighton players caught inhaling from balloons wtf ! 

 

[ewerk 30266]

City banned from the next two CLs for breaching FFP.  

 

That’ll be Pep off then.

[Sonatine 11309]

Daresay they will appeal, even though they're probably guilty as sin.

Citeh are what thousands of us want us to be...am not keen. They're being fucked by having their owners basically being their shirt sponsors but still...

This means we’re just eight points off the CL spots. 👍

It was on the news saying they’ve already said they will

I assume they’ll be coming after PSG with the same force?

[Rayvin 5185]

It's possible they might just let PSG get away with it because they're about as likely to win the CL as we are.

 

And they're about the only serious team France has.

 

I don't think this will stick anyway, when it goes to independent arbitration, City will come out swinging.

Isn't one of PSGs chief executives close with FIFA? See: France's international tournament draws seeing them up against Rotherham's reserves every World Cup
