Week 12

Watford 1-1 Arsenal
Nunez (Larsen) Dybala (Barella)

Arsenal came into this game needing a win to stay in the title chase, Cup runners up Watford are a great developing side, LC’s biggest weakness after top level experience was always the lack of a top button man. But In Nunez he’s got that ironed out, yesh he’s banging them in Portugal, but 4 in 8 in the champions league show he can step up.

Tactically both sides are well laid out but I prefer Lc’s, Arsenal edge the “strength” of the XI and the form, whilst home adv won some back for LC. All in all a draws a fair result

MOTM – Partey

Leeds 1-0 Brentford
Kane (Zaha)

Everyones favourite Welshman takes his honeybees up north to take on SG’s least favourite yorkshireman. Home advantage giving leeds a headstart in the slots but form bringing Brentford slightly close. Tactically both are presented nicely but I think they’d cancel each other out more than dominate the other.
In a game as close as this it all comes down to big game match-winners, and in ‘arry Kane, Leeds have one of the very best #9’s in world football.

MOTM – Kane, match winner

Chelsea vs Spurs

Evening kick off

------
Man City 2-1 Man Utd
Sane (Schick) Schick (Coman)
Scama ( Wirtz)
A Manchester derby to finish off the game-week, A win for City could see them jump Fan’s other side, such is the life of the goat. Never in my life have I seen such a purple patch strike force as the city one, we’re all waiting for Schick to drop off again but fair play he keeps scoring, and that’s some pure pace out-wide to really get at the united defence. I’m really not sure if I like that midfield trio, I know I’m meant to but….

I like the balance of Uniteds side, the defence is decent enough and has bags of pace to cover the spaces, Midfield 2 is a solid platform and the front-four is interesting. Kulu is showing good glimpses, Wirtz looks top quality, Rasher although low on confidence is still a baller and 12 goals in 27 for Scamma isn’t a bad return

Close game on paper but homie adv and form making it a tall order on the slots, and the fuity towed the line

MOTM - Schick

Chelsea 0-1 Spurs
Messi (Bernardo)

Clash of two of the leagues biggest hitters, an away win effectively ends Chelsea's title hopes.

4-2-3-1 vs 4-3-3 shows both sides will be pretty much matching each other man for man, they say styles make fights in this case, you can see this going the distance unless someone lands a flush KO Blow.

We're surprised in all fairness that this games going ahead, sanctions at Chelsea and then Rofan Fanramovic "accidentally" locking out the Spurs team coach put this game under serious doubt.

both sides have water-tight defences and top quality GK's as a last line. I heard a rumour that Rodri goes to bed in Fabinho pyjamas, and I think he's key in the Spurs middle three nullifying any threat from the Chelsea one, and that's where this game was always gonna be won.

Messi with the only goal in a massive win..... fun fact Connor Coady has more league goals this season than Messi

MOTM - Fabinho
