And then Man U lost at home to Spurs and everyone laughed.

Man, talk about a revival under Sherwood for Adebayor.

2 years in a row for Spurs at Old Trafford!

Spurs spend £26m on Soldado only to find they had a goalscorer in their midst already. Whoops.

Soldado is a scorer but he has has a knack to be a passer, if holds back and sat a little deeper in a 4-4-1-1 his strengths would be maximized.

he's just not a scorer in the Spurs system he has the ability to be so much more

Yep, he showed that when he drifted out wide and made that beauty of a cross for Adebayor's 1st goal against Southampton.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer New Manager of Vincent Tan's Plaything

Good luck with that, 20Legend. I still fully expect this guy to end up in Old Trafford someday.

I do agree with that. Seems like a poor signing in the way of "we'll sign him and work him into our system" rather than "we'll sign him because he fits into our system".

I was massively critical of Spurs appointing Sherwood, if he carries on like this I might have to eat those words in a few months.

The relegation dogfight is going to be massive over the second half of the season. Hull currently in 10th place are only 6 points ahead of 18th place Crystal Palace.

Re: The 2013-14 EPL Discussion Thread

Survival Sunday is always more exciting than the title race. I remember a few years ago when there were like 6 teams fighting relegation on the last day, super intense.

Re: The 2013-14 EPL Discussion Thread

I'd say the 11-12 title race was pretty exciting. Both Manchester clubs trying to win the title on the last day, with United being champions for a few minutes before Aguero won it.

But yes, most of the time, the relegation battle will provide more of the intense matches.

Re: The 2013-14 EPL Discussion Thread

Yeah "always more exciting" was over-selling it a bit. Should have just said usually.

Also, even as a Chelsea supporter, City winning the title on the last day with a stoppage time goal was absolutely remarkable. Straight out of a movie.

As an Arsenal supporter who attempts to disagree with whatever any other Chelski supporter would say, I agree with this. It was a simply brilliant day of football.
