uh shit that's tough

Player of the Season: Elanga I guess?
Flop of the Season:
Most Improved Player: Fred
Unsung Hero: John Murtough
Signing of the Season: Sancho probably

 

Player of the Season: Salah
Flop of the Season: Oxlade Chamberlain, I guess but that's harsh
Most Improved Player: Thiago's performances over the course of recent months have been a huge step up from last season.
Unsung Hero: Maybe Alisson at this point? Or Matip
Signing of the Season: Diaz

 

Player of the Season: Son
Flop of the Season: Royal
Most Improved Player: Doherty
Unsung Hero: Lloris
Signing of the Season: Kulu

 

Player of the Season: Pedri
Flop of the Season: Depay, I guess
Most Improved Player: Dest
Unsung Hero: Pique/Busquets still got it
Signing of the Season: Aubameyang, I guess

Injuries to Pedri, Pique, and Dest have derailed the team multiple times so that’s part of my reasoning. Gavi and Nico being promoted from the B kept them from the signing category.

 

Player of the Season: ASM
Flop of the Season: Willock (feel bad about that one, but he got Bruced)
Most Improved Player: Joelinton (Fraser is close)
Unsung Hero: Schar
Signing of the Season: Guimaraes

Suspect Trippier could have been a few different things, had he not broken his foot.

 

Player of the Season: Lewandowski
Flop of the Season: Sabitzer
Most Improved Player: Sané
Unsung Hero: Goretzka
Signing of the Season: Upamecano

 

this is so fucking funny to me. he's turned down deals for two years, he's spoken about not being happy here for years but getting booed after a shitty performance at home to Norwich is what's going to make him leave. can't wait until he's gone.

 

Player of the Season: Kane
Flop of the Season: Emerson
Most Improved Player: Doherty
Unsung Hero: Hojbjerg
Signing of the Season: Kulusevski


Player of the season was tough because Son has been fantastic, but some of the things Kane does are just insane.

 

Adjusting to @Swoos's new avatar.

 

its temporary lol

everyone on this site are Miami Heat haters and I kinda like them. So just leaning into it.

 

Man looks two decades older than he did before Conte joined.

 

Has Willock really been that bad? I only ask cause I've only seen two Newcastle games this year and he was great in both so I had no idea tbh. I must be his good luck charm (never worked when he was with us tbf)

 

I should maybe change signing of the season to Romero. That guy has been such a beast.

 

Still cannot believe we've moved from the bottom of the table to ending up in a play off position. This thread is crazy. Shame Cooper wasn't the manager at the beginning of the season.

Edit: please forgive me for posting this!

 

Great thread. Just looked up to see what the damage was when Hughton was sacked - one point after seven games. Incredible contrast.

 

Whoever made Rob Holding’s hair has done a bloody brilliant job.

 

What on earth was that from Christensen

 

What the fuck was that????

 

La Liga is setting up for a really awesome race for Champions League. Sevilla, Atleti, and Barca all tied on 60 pts (Atleti might be jumping to 61 with the game that just tied) with Betis (57), Sociedad (55), and Villareal (52) lurking.

 

This game is crazy

 

2-2. What is defending?!

 

Chelsea v Arsenal is madcap viewing. Yes, I refuse to watch my own team.

 

Holding is having a shocker and Ben White no better at right back. Too interested in leaving a foot in than winning the ball.
