this gives me chills, the sketch art on Pedro´s fast goal vs United, Courtois´s amazing last minute save from Van Aanholt´s shot and Hazard´s amazing solo goal against Arsenal, were all amazing, i wish they would have added Pedro´s strike against Everton tough. Cheers

 

That Hazard goal against Arsenal...I still can't believe it. I'm usually a fan of top corner rockets like the one Matic scored against Spurs, but that's my favorite goal of this season.

On a slightly different note...I wonder how BoyBlue is doing after I banned him for coming out as a troll and a Man City fan Bet he's not so smug now after winning fuck all

If Man U had bought a decent midfielder for @30 million instead of Pogba they could have bought some more refs

Two-match ban for diving next season

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/39962886

FA applied a rule from next season, that any player caught diving will be given a two match ban. Time to leave the PL, Costa.

I actually like this rule. I hate blatant diving especially in penalty box, the risk right now is way too low

I like the rule too, but it could  make EPL even less attractive for some foreign players.  Like it matters, the best ones end up at Real or  Barca anyway.

Good! Focus on the game not sodding cheating through it. Especially when it's so obvious what's the point?!

Are they still putting the pressure on?

[Jase 43,479]

Tottenham are a good side but them winning when the pressure is off is so typical. Feels very Arsenal-ish in fact. When the pressure is on, when the spotlight is on them (e.g. West Ham away), they cannot handle it. They have faltered so many this time when that pressure/spotlight is on them - Champions League group stage, Europa League R32, FA Cup semis - but of course, journalists and pundits conveniently ignore the failings because Spurs apparently play the best football in the league.

6-1 win in the end..Didn't do it when it mattered :-D 

Oh wow..local team Luton just lost the play off in the last second..then again they never shouldve gotten a penalty..must be horrible though! All that work and off you go again 

[BlueLyon 9,359]

Spuds didnt get the memo we are already champions lol

I don't like this rule. Just another area where the FA can be inconsistent in.

let them all lick Spurs ass, in the end we are champions and they fail again when it matters. Cheers
