I am not sure he should though, but you may be right.
Top5 will qualify for CL and it doesnāt even look as if they will reach that. They play Liverpool, City and Villa next.
Still think they wonāt replace him until the summer.

I am hoping Villa will make it to Top 4. It would be āpure sportsā, a team battling far greater wealth and old money. And it would be very good for the health of the league.

Bournemouth are on some form, fair play to Iraola for turning it around.

Fulham has been poor this season.
Just want to comment on Luton. I remember Ricky Hill, the plastic pitch, and David Pleat, the kerb crawler. They voted for the inaugural Prem then didnāt get a spot at the party they helped to sign off onā¦ until now.
So Luton, minnow Luton, getting to the big time - itās a lovely story, right?
Well thatās what I thought, until we played them. On the pitch they fought and did well. Top marks for that.
Off the pitch their fans were a bunch of tw*ts.
Tragedy chanting, poverty chanting, the lot.
Who do they think they are? They are no rival to us, but they were going through the ugly songbook that blights the game.
So because of that Iāve moved from having goodwill towards a plucky underdog, to wanting them to be relegated.
No marks.

Thatās a little bitter, isnāt it? Just think of how long they had been dreaming of the chance to sing āFeed the Scousersāā¦

Wow! What a turnaround for Luton!

Yeah, really agree. What he wrote is true of all fan bases. To resent entire fan bases for what some do is a bit strange. Liverpool fans are no better.

I donāt condemn an entire fan base on one incident, but I understand the resulting resentment - and I do find it bizarre that fans with no real PL history with LFC would dive into the gutter.

meh, they do what everyone else does because many of them think itās what they are supposed to do and itās what expected of āhardcore fansā. I donāt find it strange. You canāt point at one club regarding the problem of denigrating songs, it is a nasty tradition that English fan tradition are guilty of enmasse.
Itās the same in Norway. Some teams have songs of towns and cities, quite nasty. Valerenga fans calls everyone else peasants etc.

Bournemouth are cleaning house.
Shameful display from Fulham it has to be said.
Dropping 3 points at home to a fellow relegation zone side is woeful, the corrosion of belief is as bad as as the point loss.
Definitely happens all over. When I lived in Glasgow I saw a seminar that was addressing sectarian violence. The group was called Nil By Mouth and the argument was that when violence erupts it is not particularly because of a single comment that someone has said as it is unlikely that this is the first time that they have heard it: they will have heard it thousands of times before. Thatās how othering works.
Just think how many times on here we refer to Man U as Manure: itās a not particularly funny joke name likening them to a pile of horse shit. Not particularly funny when first heard and, frankly, fucking grating by the 100th.

Iriola is doing a wonderful job. People were so quick to criticize him early on but what heās been doing with them loom like itās clicked
