Time will tell but I think the top 5 league places will shuffle about a lot over the next couple of months.If you look at the top 5 teams, the only team with a better record over the last 5 games than Spurs is Southampton! ...

I mean Southampton??!! What is going on!!!?Yep, most teams can win four or five in a row. Spurs have a run of very tricky fixtures coming up, and frankly I don`t fancy us for any of them. Jose is right that the strength in depth of the league is really high right now. Except for the bottom four... bloody terrible... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I think that pruning the league of a couple of teams would not be a bad thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I`m pleased to have proper sides like Villa and Leeds back for that reason, in place of Bournemouth and Stoke and their ilk. Has Poland sufficient strength in depth? You don`t want another Dutch league on your hands with perennial whipping boys, unless you enjoy a good mismatch. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we need to prepare for the Apocalypse? What the hell is happening!!??Intriguing times, if not quite apocalyptic, as it could theoretically stay that way over the (blasted) international break. Depends on Liverpool vs Man City, West Brom vs Spurs, Everton vs Man Utd, Leics vs Wolves... it`s anybody`s guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nova Carmina Posted November 7, 2020 Author Share Posted November 7, 2020 Interlopers at the top of the PL alert. It's temporary, I tell ya! It is more fun when you've got a handful of teams who could beat each other, and another handful who could beat the first bunch if things break their way. As long as Liverpool keep winning. How does Pickford get away with crashing into people? Does he have incriminating photos of all the VAR refs? A deal with Satan? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In light of recent events, I'm less inclined to trust 538! At the same time, it makes sense for Bayern to be the favorite, until somebody shows they can be beaten in a repeatable way.

A deal with Satan?Well, yes to both of your points on Pickford; he also has something on Southgate to guarantee England No.1 status. When Ancelotti said he needed to stop thinking and be more instinctive... so we had the thinking version before? The VVD assault was measured and thoughtful? There`s no way he`s smart enough to be that calculated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
