Premier League 21/22

“A few hundred protesters had gathered outside Carrow Road after the thrashing by the Hammers, the team's first home tie since they were relegated from the Premier League with a 2-0 defeat at Villa Park on 30 April.

 

Many were chanting "Delia out", in reference to the TV cook, who owns the club with her husband Michael Wynn Jones.”

Haaland to City for 63 million would be a real bargain imo. The lad is special. 

£63mil is a snip for a player of his quality.

No brainer for someone like City, who are crying out for that out and out striker.

 

Be interesting to see how he fares in the PL. Took the Bundes by storm.

Erling Haaland close to joining Manchester City. 

 

Hmmmmm.

christ liverpool want to hope they win the league this season somehow, because signing him could win them the league for the foreseeable. It's potentially an extra 25 goals a season? And the games they've dropped points in are usually the ones where lacking a central striker has killed them. He will change the game for them completely

Imagine protesting against the board at Norwich.

 

Some football fans.

Be interesting to see the Haaland thing develop in terms of how he fits in with City's style of play and whether they'll need to adapt at all. 

Kane seemed ready made with how he can drop deeper. Pleased to see him come to England.

I think it’s also helped Haaland get bigger wages - apparently £375k a week or something.

From the BBC

 

A play-off to determine the Premier League champions? Imagine the drama...

 

Manchester City know they will win the title again if they gain seven points from their last three matches - starting with a trip to Wolves on Wednesday (20:15 BST) - but the prospect of an unprecedented winner-takes-all decider isn't as unlikely as it would first appear.

 

Premier League rules state that a 39th match will be used to determine the champions if two sides are level on points, goal difference, goals scored and in the head-to-head results between them.

 

The latter element has already been ticked off, with both games between the two ending 2-2. City know just one defeat would see Liverpool finish the campaign level on points with them should they win their remaining two matches - and City win their other two games.

All fairly plausible so far. On to the goals scenario. 

 

If Liverpool do pick up three points more than City in their remaining games, goal difference would be the first factor to decide the title. City are three ahead on that count.

But should Liverpool peg that back - not inconceivable - it goes to goals scored and both teams have currently netted 89. Should that remain level between now and the end of the season, on to a play-off we go.
