Why does YNWA get uninterrupted coverage for every televised match?

Come on Chelsea, anyone but Liverpool

Sky and BT = Man City TV (and before that, Sky was colloquially referred to as ManU TV).

We better get used to ManC dominating global football for many years to come, and inevitably the media will jump on that bandwagon. They were the first odds-on favourites for a title before a season started, which highlights the gulf over Spuds, LFC, ManC, Arsenal and Chelsea.

I'm surprised Liverpool have to go through the demeaning process of actually playing other PL teams throughout the season, especially those that aren't top six sides. Shouldn't the PL just show due respect and hand them the title pre-season each year, and the rest of the PL teams can then play the season competing for a second place trophy while Liverpool rest players for their European campaign?

And play YNWA at the close of TV every night as used to happen with the National Anthem

Liverpool's football is making the title race enjoyable this year. Any other season and it would have been over a while back. I hope they win it.

You can see how Chelsea always outclass Brighton. 9 powerful and pacey athletes, their job “No one will ever score against us, let’s nick goals on the counter”, with possibly the greatest player on the planet Hazard. When we play Chelsea, it must be sole destroying for the players and supporters.

Sky still couldn't bring themselves to call it a dive.

I have a solution for this next year when VAR comes in


'' Simmulation '' or dives in the box should be a ''straight red card'' No Yellows, No Warnings - Straight Red.. ……. OK you might get the odd 50/50 decisions but players like Salah and Kane and Zaha and Deli Ali will all be thinking twice before doing it.


If a tackle brings you down it brings you down but they will be clear to spot with VAR - None of this form the Pundits ''Well there was contact so he had every right to go down'' They encourage it in one breath and discourage it just to play ''lip service'' to Fair Play Ethics

So weird how Chelsea are 16 points off the top, and were last season too. An incredible squad of the some of the greatest players the game has ever seen such as Kante, Willian.

Guardiola would turn them into a machine.

I would say the working conditions for any manager there are unpleasant.

They have lost one game all season and can still lose the title even if they win all their remaining games as long as City keep winning. That is pretty mind blowing imo

And would be very, VERY funny.
