The 4th Officials

Headline story here ... Tottenham are perennial losers, and that's a verbatim quote from Antonio Conte.

A nice little morsel to whet our appetites heading into the amazing international break ...

Some teams raise their game for the big moment and then deflate afterwards ... some examples to follow.

Manchester United lose a tight one to rivals Liverpool at Anfield, Arsenal don't crap their pants (yet), City rolls a sinking Newcastle, Tottenham lose to a strikerless Wolves, and Chelsea win a game. 

Everyone wins! (except Tottenham in the Cup) we're getting to a tricky part of the season ... can Chelsea stop this slide? Are Liverpool really back this time? (really?) can Arsenal control their own destiny? Don't look now ... we've got an International Break in the near future.

Who let this mutant out in public? City DRAW Forest, Arsenal perform a miracle, Tottenham slaughter the Hammers ... Chelsea is still Chelsea, and Liverpool's resurgance may have been greatly exaggerated. 

James' City smack Ken's Arsenal in London and take a firm hold on the PL trophy, Utd beat Leeds and then draw Barca (who are implicated in a ref bribing scheme), Chelsea draw, lose, and look bad again, Tottenham puke against Leicester while Conte recovers poorly from surgery, and Liverpool win a game. 

Great change of pace here as we only have a good group of games to talk about, no drama whatsoever ... no impending doom ... I don't know what you're talking about. 

City Lose United Win (That's backwards), The Wormeater Returns to bully Ken's kids, and Chelsea and Liverpool just look bad.

Action packed weekend as Arsenal beats United at the death and declare war on Man City. Tottenham get back on track and Liverpool and Chelsea play football in a toilet. 

A big weekend in the books, some teams win while cheating the offsides rule, and some teams win because the other team didn't show up in the first half ... who's who!?

We're back and right into the thick of it. City Win, United Win, Pool Win, Newcastle Win, Arsenal Win, Tottenham ... draw. Eww.
