#Barclays 24/25

Has there ever been a worse class of promoted teams in the Barclays?  I watched Luton v Wolves yesterday and any self respecting team would have beaten a fairly dreadful Wolves team who had to play the last hour with 10 men while today Sheffield United (who for some reason consider Wes Foderingham to be a Premier League caliber goalie) got absolutely horsed by a Newcastle team who are supposed to be struggling and Burnley lost to a completely dysfunctional Man United team

Tom Davies eh? Utterly mind boggling that he's still playing at this level. 

I was wondering today where he'd ended up. I'd have guessed half the countries in Europe before a Premier League side.

Neil Warnock is a bit of a legend down Sheffield way is he not? They should punt Heckingbottom now and get him in.

They'll still go down but they'll go down with a bit of fucking discipline.

They're supposedly willing to bring back the man who got angry at "lefties" in a press conference so that should sort this lot out.

Just catching up with last night's MOTD2. As much as I think kicking Anthony Gordon should be a national sport, I'm bemused as to how VAR didn't even look at the trip on him in the penalty box.

Edit: add Nketiah's challenge on the Spurs keeper to that, a stick on red card imo.

United players must be thinking “what do we need to do, to get this boy sacked” Although on saying that, Southampton stuck with Hasenhuttl after their skelping by Leicester and they picked up enough good results to stay up for a couple of seasons. Be very surprised if Sheffield United do that though.

I did see in the summer that people were saying it was the lowest quality top flight based really just on club names/history alone. 
 

I was watching one of the PL Years shows on Sky (used to love those review shows but they seem to have gradually made them worse through editing) and I think it was maybe 05/06 and that season also had some really really small clubs in it, Wigan/Hull etc

Some real gems from Keysey this week, including a stern rebuke for Vincent Kompany, but this demolition of Jamie Carragher is a fine work of art:

I didn’t agree with Carragher’s midweek assessment that Arsenal would never win the title with Ramsdale in goal. When I saw that my initial reaction was ‘nonsense’, because they were a whisker away from doing so last season. But then I realised that Carragher played in a team that was never going to win the title with him in it, so he probably knows more about the subject than me.

Started reading some old blogs.

From 03/02/20 West Ham are a car crash.

Bear in mind this is 3 and a half years ago and Liverpool are romping their way to the title.
