hope we lose our CL spot in england,i'll find it more entertaining watching city,utd,arsenal & chelsea battling all season for 4th and having to play in the pointless europa dopey league at the end as a reward, a lot more interesting than seeing the same old teams winning in the CL every year

hope bayern smash arsenal twice in a row too so the goon fans will want wenger sacked asap,he won't survive that

Fans don't matter. The Board do and every year Arsenal make millions and Wenger is the reason for any success they have. 

 

This said, I agree with you on the European thing, if only so that it's harder for Saints to get in Europe. I honestly don't care about it. Sure it's great for success and money but I'd prefer to concentrate on the Premier League and try and win a domestic trophy. 8th every season would do me fine.



Hmm, pie.

the chances are slim of anyone else grabbing 4th so 3rd won't matter much,like i say be more fun watching them play for a pointless ropa place ,that will drain their sqauds more and give us a better chance,we don't need euro money in our league anymore to buy a few players here and there

i wish they would make a knockout tournament for the europa myself they will never make CL staright knockout

personally i like wenger but would love to see the turmoil it will bring the arsenal for a couple of years repalcing him as a spurs fan,they will falter a bit i hope

shame the saints went out of the ropa,how did that happen but helps you in the end over the season most likely

the saints & west ham going out realy hurts our uefa co-effecient as there are 9 teams or something but then i don't mind,lol

West Ham only got in from 'fair play' so it's not an actual place, so to speak. Saints went out because of poor style of play in our games. Constant long ball didn't work and we had a few key players out.

yes but it defo counts as a co-efficient place,

thought koeman would have navigated to the ropey league but teh saints have done amazing considering the players they have lost ,our squad is too light for a europa campaign this year,rather concentrate on the league,monaco & anderlecht will be tough for our midweek team as i hope we save our first team for the weekend

Ah.. my favorite Brendan Rodgers excuse: "Rebuilding the team" ...holly shit.. doesn't he know he's rebuilding a team from his own team last year.. which was also a rebuild of his own team the year before? you can't keep rebuilding after 4 years in charge

That's pretty bad of Iran. Besides that I don't think they should be allowed to play in the womens' team even if they have had sex change operations. They still wouldn't be women. They would still have the larger muscle/organ sizes of men and would therefore have an unfair advantage.

i dont understand your problem, they see themself as women, and give up alot of rights in iran because they want to be women.

disallowing transgender people from sports isnt fair too. 

and maybe it will teach those feminist who think gender is just a social construct that they are wrong...

 

and its not just muscles/organs, reflexes and vision are different too.  female national teams struggle to beat male amateur youthteams



I care! Fuckinsfgfgastiwernglaksfg Rodgers, GTFO already



couldn't beat monaco,our second string would have got well beat by monaco,pochetino needs to hope the drain of thursday doesn't lose to swansea on sunday now

yes i think this will be rodgers last season even though you could never replace a suarez,if rodgers is out of the top 4 or doesn't win the ropey,the red sox will probably sack him
