The Soccer Thread (Version 9)

Rumors had Sarri getting sacked if Chelsea didn't win. Now I think he gets sacked either way.

 

City wins. Sarri's gone in the morning.

 

The other senior players should have hauled Kepa off of the field.

 

You had me thinking something batshit crazy happened for them to add 28-plus minutes of time. Then I realized this was a final and they were playing extra time and it made a thousand times more sense.

 

Sarri has to go after this. I expect to wake up in the morning to read that he's been sacked.

Also think that Chelsea's one-year transfer ban might be a blessing in disguise — they'll be forced to play more of their young talent, and whoever replaces Sarri should be more tactically sound.

 

Brendan Rogers to Leicester. Neil Lennon takes over Celtic for the rest of the season.

 

It's just the same 20 blokes playing musical chairs (with a few Euros rotating in).

 

Fulham sacked Claudio Ranieri.

Too little, too late.

 

They will never take 2016 away from him.

 

I'm kind of sad Fulham are probably going down. Really like that club. Huddersfield, I couldn't give a shit about. Cardiff, if it's them who go down? Nothing club. But Fulham have a little place in my heart.

 

The Fulhamerica era lives on in my heart, Jean Tigana be damned.

 

Bournemouth didn't register a shot, on or off target, against City today. Haven't seen that kind of offensive incompetence since Sweden in 2016.
