The Premier League 2019/20 Season Thread

Absolutely. To be so far ahead, 23 points was it?, is just astonishing. Not sure why anyone would begrudge them their title.

Liverpool's title - despite the somewhat unusual end to the season, theyd had it all but won prior to lockdown so richly deserved without any caveats.

Without any caveats? No VARce (crucial in the early games which went their way) Covid-19 (3 month break after an initial winter-break) 5 substitutions, no fans in stadiums .... the list is endless.

It is currently Aston Villa 0-0 Wolves, live on BT Sport 1.

 

[Rob the Imp]

Ah, to have a sports channel. Text updates for me!

 

[Rob the Imp]

Still 0-0.

 

[NottyImp]

These post-Covid games are real thrillers, aren't they?

 

[simes69]

Wolves 1 up. I can't see Villa staying up, if I'm honest.

Traore is unrecognisable from the player at Middlesborough a few seasons back. It shows what good coaching in partnership with raw talent can do. It would be great albeit a different level if MA could weave some magic on the likes of Adebayo Smith and one or two others for us.

Palace versus Burnley? Worth the Sky subscription on its own.

 

[Rasenimp]

Yeah not a very inspiring this one. Both sides probably lucky to get nil
