You can't sell your best players every year. If they are not buyers in January, relegation is a serious possibility..

they give up the tie in the 90th minute after just being bombarded the entire 2nd half. They have one of the worst back lines in the EPL, which is a result of selling their captain, Ashley Williams to Everton during the transfer.

During the transfer they throw a whole bunch of cash in getting two Spanish forwards/strikers.....WHO THEY DON'T EVEN START! The same transfer in which they were one of 3 teams to actually MAKE money. The American's (Levin, etc.) were supposed to hit the ground running and be spending money, they're the ones who got all the fans all riled up with their deep pockets talk, but when push came to shove, they kept the money instead of spending. This team at one point and time was owned by a community or town trust, and now they're in the hands of Corporate Americans, and look at the results.

Also, you got guys like Ki just going through the motions but he finds his way on the field every week. Fernandez and Rangel shouldn't be playing EPL futbol period, but they're back line regulars.

time will tell, if they're not one of the most active teams during the transfer then mgt is content with relegation, which will cost them millions on EPL TV revenue. At the end of the day, you have to spend money to make money.

Please tell me you didn't just call soccer "futbol"

That should be a consideration for automatic relegation.

Default Swans vs. Palace

most entertaining game of the year, that's for sure.

If we weren't able to beat Pardew i would have said all is lost for the season/league. But, we dug in, and fed him what should be his walking papers at Palace.

First EPL win for Bradley, which just so happen to come the same week Klinsmann gets the axe from USA Soccer, coincidence, i think not, Brads knows Jurgy is probably coming for his job again.

He told magistrates he had no idea he had been drinking, even though he conceded his Diet Coke tasted odd, and although he felt “tired” he had not suspected he was tipsy.

He told the court that he had been to a house party where he had poured himself what he thought was Diet Coke from a jug, but later discovered it was mixed with brandy.

He had been the “designated driver” on the night of the party and drove his car with passengers in it, claiming he just felt tired, despite being double the drink-drive limit.

He told the court he thought his drink tasted different but only later found out he had been pouring himself a pre-mixed drink.
"tired" with a 0.16 BAC and never drank alcohol before, riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight

Well that was a dumpster fire for the ages. He's gone. Jurgy? FFS those owners are going to be forced out of town by March.

You've got Tom Carroll back...so....there's something

I think they know they're going down and trying to rebuild. They picked up a left back from Norwich City and someone else from France I think.. 3 moves thus far in the window seems they have an idea at least of what they need to get back up..

if that's the case, why spend any money, at all?
I think the Americans are digging deep to save face and keep this team up. Having said that, none of the rumors/news about additions have been earth shattering. But, they stand to get something from Chelsea WHEN Llorente is shipped off (thanks for being diego costa, diego costa). It's really a catch-22, you want to spend money and get (the best) players, but who wants to start for a relegation team when they can just ride pine for a cup winner, looking at you john terry. They have to cruise the lower levels and hope for a diamond in the rough.

on the bright side, their U-23 team has done well this year

You've got an impossible schedule from here on out including away games against Liverpool, Man City and Chelsea over the next 5 weeks and only two games left against a potential relegation side (Hull in March; Sunderland, in May).

Barring a miracle, it looks like you're going to need a ton of luck to stay up Bri

Mignolet is autistic. Please, for the love of GOD, put in Karius from here on out. I don't give a f.uck if he chokes I am sick of Mignolet. We all know he turns into Corky when pressured.

That was shocking to say the least. Spurs castoffs Carroll and Siguršsson providing the much missing Swan firepower early and gutty go ahead by Sig.

Safe to say no one say that result coming. wow.

The fan sites were brutal yesterday. To the point the midfield was set for a helicopter ride.

The soccer gods did not appreciate your assessment of the swans, and this was the result Dan. TC42 might have been 5th team with spurs, but he factored in 2 goals yesterday for the swans.
Life almost came full circle for you when city went up 2-0, fortunate for you bravo is.........bravo otherwise y'all almost squandered what you thought was an easy 3 points
Happy to see palace and Sunderland did their part yesterday as well.

How about that arsenal game, wtf!?!?!?!?!,!
