Premier League 22-23

[roverandout]

Leicester Leeds Southampton will be forces In the championship next season.  3 clubs who've recently been promoted from it. Maybe not that recently in Leicester's case but they'll all be in the mix

[philipl]

Bournemouth are. the sort of nasty side with quality players who can mix it you don't want to be playing on a day like this coming Sunday.

Would far rather have Spurs or West Ham as the visitors.

[speeeeeeedie]

The 3 relegation threatened teams are at home on Sunday;

Everton v. Bournemouth

Leeds v. Spurs

Leicester v. West Ham

All look like winnable games, however, those teams are at the bottom for a reason so it's certainly not a forgone conclusion.

They can draw and still go down if Leicester win

Wouldnt it require a 16/17 goal swing?

Everton GD -24 Pts 33

Leicester GD -18 Pts 31

Leeds GD -27 Pts 31

Leeds likeliest to win their game despite a Kane farewell goal being an inevitability but are in the worst position.

Goodison will be the very definition of a collective neurotic break down. 

Remember these-

If I'd have written that in the 1980s they'd have locked me away in an asylum.

[bazza]

I have a feeling that all three clubs will win on Sunday.

[danger19_80]

Everton down to the bare bones as well up top with Calvert-Lewin likely out injured

who`d have thought the likes of provincial tinpot clubs like bournemouth and brentford would ever get to the top flight and clubs like sheff wed,west brom,birmingham,derby and portsmouth are somewhat floundering🙄

[bazza]

When we were in the third division in he 1970s we played against good sides like Bournemouth, Brighton and Chesterfield. Why aren't the spirites in the Prem?

Not sure what you mean. Leicester have got a significantly better goal difference so if they win and Everton drop points, Leicester stay up and Everton go down.

No Leicester have 6 goals better goal difference.

The last day is wide open and I wouldn't call it right now. Looking forward to watching it

How strange, seems you are right. Sky sports app seems to have shaved the 4 off the -24!

How shit is the league that you can be safe with 33 or 34 points? Pathetic.

 

Come on Bournemouth and either Leeds or Leicester.

[sympatheticclaret]

There's a case to be made for all results on the last day .... will all 3 relegation threatened Clubs fight like dogs and grind out wins ? Which Spurs will turn up at Elland Road ? Are AFC Bournemouth already " on the beach " ? Will West Ham have half an eye on their Euro final on 7th June ?

I'd personally like to see Leeds and Everton drop, it'd only probably be for one season, assuming Everton get their financial house in order ? If they do go and get rid of Dyche, they need " sectioning ", with his track record of getting promoted from the Championship. A great chance also to clear the dead wood out of that squad, I suspect there's quite a few who're not Dyche's sort of player ..

[philipl]

Spurs have a longshot of European qualifying riding on their Elland Road trip.

Villa have Brighton so could easily not win.

[DE.]

Decent point for Leicester in the end. Means that if Everton draw on the final day they can now potentially leapfrog them thanks to their superior GD, and even if Leeds also win they'll still finish ahead of them. Could be a critical point depending on how results go on the 28th.

Hecke doing a fine job for Brighton tonight 🤭

Brighton giving City a game here, just scored a cracker, top corner, 1-1, setup by Jason Steele.

I remember them having no ground and seemingly no future. They came protesting up here in Mellor against the then owner.

Keep the faith, Venkys will sod off one day, then anything is possible.

brighton really suffered,they had to play in an athletic/greyhound stadium for years,as one leeds supporting mate said "it was the worst ground he`s ever been to and it was`nt fit to host sunday league football!!)

Dear God I hope that's true. Leicester's defence became a joke with almost every corner leading to a chance for the opposing team, and his tactics being found out. He initially did really well there, but things really went to poo.

[JacknOry]

Bet the Spurs fans are loving that potential appointment...

Sensible by Levy to approach someone who won't turn him down as so desperate to stay in the PL.

There are only so many slap downs even Levy can take.

He may even turn out a decent appointment.
