Maybe the Chelsea's , Man U's,Tottenham etc Need to create their own superstars and managers and stop stealing them from West Ham

When you really think about it The above clubs are the Manly's of the EPL

I'm going to bite Happy…

Here's the English roster for Man U 2011-2012:

4\. Phil Jones: Rovers junior;
5\. Rio Ferdinand: West Ham junior (you can have him back if you like :laughing🙂
6\. Jonny Evans: Man U junior;
7\. Michael Owen: Scouser junior;
10\. Wayne Rooney: Everton junior;
12\. Chris Smalling: Maidstone United junior;
16\. Michael Carrick: Wallsend Boys, later West Ham junior (he wasn't even yours to begin with!)
18\. Ashley Young: Watford junior;
19\. Danny Welbeck: Man U junior;
22\. Paul Scholes: Man U junior;
23: Tom Cleverly: Bradford, later Man U junior;
40\. Ben Amos: Man U junior;
48\. Will Keane: Man U junior;
50\. Sam Johnstone: Man U junior;
51\. Ezekiel Fryers: Man U junior.

One legitimate West Ham junior we've poached, and yeah we nicked Carrick later, but we pinched him off Tottenham!

How about West Ham's form, you've got about 3 or 4 Chelsea juniors in your ranks, plus a Man U junior. Who's doing the pillaging? :laughing:

Where not in the EPL and what was the use to keep the developing the best young players in the country when they all get poached At one stage 8 of the English squad were Hammer juniors and yet not one was playing for us

Great to hear that they are talking Salary Caps in the EPL as well Might even out the talent in the EPL
 
One mistake and your chase is over and the Europa cup will stay elusive for you guys. The closest you guys will get to the Europa cup is when you guys play at Anfield. In case you're wondering, we have one of those in our trophy cabinet. Only place in the UK you'll find it :wink:

Touche, Cecil!
 
The club that has surprised me most would be Norwich

Was expecting them to go straight back down but to be in the Top 8 is a great achievement
 
All three clubs that were promoted have done well, Norwich especially.

Speaking of the Carling Cup Chris, saw the funniest comment today:

"Liverpool have finally taken home a trophy after six years: The Carling cup. That's a bit like being single for six years and then bringing home Susan Boyle." :laughing:
 
Hopefully you'll be alive to see this one day CB….

Man City are done and United should win this pretty comfortably. United have home games against Swansea, Villa and Everton to come as well as away games at Sunderland, City and Wigan. Even if they lose to City, 11 points would be enough to win it, and the only other team I can see giving them too much trouble is Everton. City also have a game at Newcastle, which will be a big challenge for them.

As much as I like to see Spurs do well, I must say their recent collapse has at least made for a fun battle for Champions League spots. Obviously Chelsea's games against Newcastle and Arsenal are now massive, I think it will finish 3\. Arsenal 4\. Chelsea 5\. Newcastle 6\. Spurs, but with Chelsea having FA Cup committments and a tie against Barca coming up Newcastle are in with a huge shot of jagging 4th spot.
 
Nothing better than watching Liverpool descend into the pits of mediocrity and irrelevance.

"King" Kenny my arse.

After 20 games

Kenny: 24 pts
Hodgson: 24 pts
 
Do you think 'KK' will be on the outer when the season is finished?

I am a bit concerned for the Hammers in there battle to promoted back to the EPL Reading has gone crazy and won some ridiculous amount of games and lead the N power championship with the Saints second and us third The saints play the Brummies away which could give us a shot to get back to equal second but we are 3 goals behind in goal difference with 4 to play

Even though three go up we will probably have to beat the Brummies to advance and they are our kryptonite for sure
 
Why do I bother with Everton? We start to look really good, go ahead in the FA Cup semi, then a brain fart (that wasn't even necessary) ties the game up, and then that overrated, overpriced hack buries us. Absolutely disgusted, we were in such good form as well, I would've been pretty confident against Chelsea in the final too.

He'll get the arse halfway through next season.

Shy of Suarez, they've got nothing upfront.
