Absolute torture eh.  La Liga reams it every time.  I really just watch the big games in England, will watch on Sunday.

Yes, the Barclays only has 3 teams in the Champions League last 16, if only another League could equal La Liga's 4 teams at that stage this year.

See in terms of the actual quality of the teams, I've always maintained there's very little in it between the top clubs in different countries.  Next year or last it could be England with four, so I don't read much into that.  

I just mean in terms of how good it is to watch, but that's obviously subjective. Imo nothing comes close to Spanish football.

Yes, but given the Bundesliga is taking up four of those slots, do you agree that it is a league with strength in depth & overall quality?

No I'm not a big fan of the Bundesliga, I think its of a lower standard than the other top leagues, France is too. I don't think they should really have four slots.

Nonetheless their 4 entrants have qualified for the round of 16 in the Champions League.

Jesus, this fucking league. Oh well, Liverpool v Man U on Sunday. I'll give it a go because it's 2 half decent teams but fully expecting another turgid 0-0.

I'm expecting Man United to get bodied. 2 or 3 goal win for Liverpool.

Hopefully Liverpool v Man United ends up 4-4 .....need a goalfest fix.

Dave, Dave, Dave.... I reckon there’s a high probability (but not guaranteed) that in making this post, you’ll have jinxed this fixture and we’ll likely be served up an utter shitfest of a 0-0.

West Brom took an early lead through a penalty, but Wolves are now 2-1 up just before half time.

Saw that Sam Allardyce had been saying how scared he is to be working during the pandemic. He was perfectly safe sitting at home 5 or 6 weeks back, there's no way he needed this job for the money. I can see him chucking it to preserve his record of not being relegated.

Wolves started the first half badly, and have started the second half even worse. 3-2 West Brom, taking the lead through another penalty.

Wolves must be so frustrating to support. Sometimes some superb football and results then several that are absolutely rubbish which you’d hedge your bets on them winning. 

Nuno does far too much tinkering with their side IMO.

Sums it up that for all the good stuff that he does, Traore doesn’t have a single league goal or assist this season. Two needless challenges for both penalties.
