If there were 2-1 to win all those 3 games then they should have been about 2-1 to win the league because the two amount to the very same thing.

That's like saying the odds for Chelsea winning all their games next season, and Chelsea winning the league should be the same, as it amounts to the same thing. Obviously not as dramatic but you see the point. Anyway, Liverpool didn't even need to win all three, they only needed two wins and a draw to be sure. It's also ignoring the fact that City, at the time, had five games they needed to win. That was a massive safety net for your bet on Liverpool winning the league and still is, even with the three games they still need to win.

I think City will drop points at Everton, but if they do I'm unsure about whether Liverpool can beat Palace. They looked absolutely shot against Chelsea. Suarez was running on fumes.

Well done Seamus and well deserved. I still think that Zabaleta is the best right back in the world, so the fact Seamus was considered better than him says it all.

Exactly, and the inclusions of Cech, Kompany and probably even Gerrard show that Coleman had to be at least twice as good as him to get selected.

**Crosby87** · 29/04/2014, 1:45 PM

Yes he is in good Kompany.

I think Gerrard has had a great season and probably deserves it, even if it might be a bit of a sentimental choice by players and the media. I think Kompany is a brilliant player and a great captain, but how he is in the team I'll never know. Cech is a great keeper, but I'd have Begovic and De Gea over him this season.

Is it just me or is Begovic the best keeper in the league? If he was playing with one of the so called top clubs, he'd be lauded as a great keeper.

**Charlie Darwin** · 29/04/2014, 3:13 PM

De Gea is the best keeper in the league for me. I don't think it's even close.

**BonnieShels** · 29/04/2014, 3:24 PM

I'd agree with you Charlie.

Begovic is widely recognised around the wider footballing community as being a magnificent keeper.

Utd were touted as a destination before De Gea popped up.

**DeLorean** · 29/04/2014, 6:02 PM

Yeah I think Liverpool had their eye on Begovic as well but opted with Mignolet in the end. Fine keeper for sure. I agree with your view on Kompany as well Bungle, he's usually a top player but to be honest you could make an excellent bloopers video out of his performances this season. I think Gerrard's performances have been magnified out of all proportion due to Liverpool doing so well.

**Crosby87** · 29/04/2014, 6:38 PM

I had Filet Mignolet one time in a steak house.

Ah yea. I though it was that one but I had a quick look but didn't see it, will try again now I know.

Of course it is appropriator it is the thread of someone with such a fishy name.

You may have missed the joke, Tricko.

Almost, however I found the joke after a somewhat fruitless search of the Conor Sammon
thread.

My laughter was not prolonged

**tricky_colour** · 01/05/2014, 12:44 AM

Anyway as it was not Sammon anyone know who the story was about, I think I found the story
by clicking on a link in a thread here but I am not sure which Irish player it was about.
I tried looking but there were a lot of threads to search through.

I think the gist of it was some Irish player did not know what to order from a menu
and a more senior player suggested the Haddock Steak, so I was looking at threads
about 'thick' Irish players or more senior Irish, the more senior person might not even have been
Irish.

I was thinking of perhaps Nial Quinn or John O Shea for the senior player, I don't want to
list the Irish players I consider a bit thick or rather uncultured, however I think we all have
an idea of players most would consider rather 'uncultured'.

I think the thread was from 3-4 weeks ago.

**Charlie Darwin** · 07/05/2014, 11:38 PM

Hugely deserved. I think Zabaleta is still the best right-back in England, as his masterclass tonight showed, but Coleman has the capability to pass him out and be one of the best.
