There's not really much difference between the sides below the top 5. A couple of draws into wins and you're in Europe, a couple of draws into defeats you're relegated.

If the league was based on games since the Man City game transformation @ game 13, we’d be all over budget airlines looking for European flights

What a nice way to start the weekend.
What a weight off the shoulders.
What a jubilant crowd at ER.

Happy for Leeds fans everywhere.

His contact is so bad, look at him, he flaps, he gets in peoples way his angles are so off.
Go back., rewatch his goal v Wolves away.

And repent.

Seeing you are in Carrick and marginally closer to the airport than me in Belfast you are allowed your moment of levity.

Will be a very good weekend now if Spurs and West Ham both drop points. Cant see both of them losing, but fingers crossed at least one of them does.

Really enjoyable evening at Elland Road, nice and warm too. Oh, and a 3 goals and 3 points.

Loved the serenading of Daniel Farke at the end 😍😍😍
