    Yeah, that's about right. I don't think Liverpool will ever get more points than they will this season. It's just a freak year.

    Although it won't be a record, they got 98 in '79.

    Only 4 teams have finished on more points than Liverpool have now since the Premier League era started. That'll be 5 once City finish too.

    All the other 4 won the league that year.

    Liverpool only team to lead at Christmas and lose too? Shambles of a club. I love it.

    Their all-time record was 90 in '88. '79 was two points for a win. You can't just adjust for inflation like that.

    I can't be arsed to look, but at any point do City play before Liverpool? The dream scenario is for City to lose, then Liverpool do too. Ideally through a Salah slip.

    It would have to be the next round of games if they do, as the last lot are played at the same time. With the midweek game, Liverpool must play after, right?

    Do England get a fifth CL spot if Arsenal or Chelsea win the Europa League? Or does the winner need to finish outside of the top four?

    Sarri taking off Loftus Cheek for the most pointless midfielder in history sums him up. Chelsea blew that.

    I think they do have to finish outside the top four for England to get a 5th spot, yeah. So if Chelsea win, and still end up 4th, it wouldn't have mattered that they won the Euro cup, as such.

    So no help for United there. Would it be the same if Spurs or Liverpool were to win the Champions league?

    Yes. Basically, as a country you get "as few spots as possible", if you get what I mean.

    Where did I see the lol theory of United coming fifth but then City getting thrown out of the Champions' League on financial fair play grounds? Could that happen in theory at least?

    Isn't that £13m a season? Presumably for him to piss off on loan somewhere where they're also prepared to stump up £13m a season.

    To the roflcopter!

    On FM. When you wanted to sell a player, sometimes the cunt would say, pay me x over x years to leave. It sounds like it is something like that. Adebayor did that to man City before he moved to Tottenham?

    After incidents with their fans last night Valencia have released a statement saying that 1) They have zero tolerance to racism in any shape or form 2) Their fans must have been goaded into doing nazi salutes and monkey chants by Arsenal fans.

    I've spent a fair bit of time 'in and around' Spaniards and it's fair to say that they don't get racism at all, in a very innocent sense. Blacking up is absolutely routine stuff, for example.
