Agreed. Probably 5000/1 they could win it.

Huddersfield and Brighton have both stayed up after their first season, unlike Norwich every single time they promote.

we're favourites for the playoffs and i'm fairly confident tbqh

I imagine they and their fans will quite enjoy it

Would be nice to have Villa back. There are teams that should be in the top division. Every country has those

Haven't lost a game in 10 matches

Sounds good. Good luck

seriously considering bandwagoning this canary club next season out of pure spite and contrarianism. also if they're web-fingered we're probably cousins not too far back

yeah, it used to be fun to have a meme team in the prem for the first time but it's gone too far now and there's too many shitters in the prem with big clubs in the championship
i would have liked leeds to get 2nd and come up with us but i reckon they'll defo choke the playoffs now, probably lose in the semis

next season i hope bournemouth, brighton and norwich go down
>haven't lost a game
let me correct you, we have won 10 games in a row
have't drew either

Which team winning the playoffs would cause the most tantrums on Yea Forums, Derby or WBA?

Forgot, just in the Bundesliga he has 1 goal per 133 minutes (goal every 1,5 games). Goal or an assist per 97 minutes. I don't really get how that's "fucking awful", but I guess brits just have such big football brains, having invented the sport and all.

WBA because nobody gives a shit about them

>Fuck Villa anti-Irish scum!
you are a fucking idiot, villa have strong irish connection with the irsh population in birmingham (i have irish family myself)
aston church next to the ground is catholic and villa have always had an affiliation with celtic whilst birmingham city is affiliated with rangers

doesn't excuse you for being a plastic mong though but i believe we have a strong irish plastic fanbase too (maybe the 4th or 5th most popular english club in ireland?)

Can't wait for sky sports to jizz all over Frank lampards derby county when they get promoted, just for them to come back down with 12 points

Sounds good. Hopefully we'll get Hamburg and Cologne back. Memes aside Hamburg is a historic German team and Cologne was always too good for the second division. Their academy is way too good for that league.

villa because there are quite a few of us on Yea Forums and the other lads in /3pm/ get pissed off at the strong presence our multiple posters have in a slowish thread

>Sounds more like he was used as an impact sub rather than an actual starting player.
Yeah, he had prime Huntelaar and at times 33 year old Raul ahead of him. They played with one striker most of the time and you're gonna have prime Huntelaar starting ahead of pretty much everyone. He joined Schalke at 21 and left at 23 as well.

>next season i hope bournemouth, brighton and norwich go down
I'm getting real tired of Eddie Meme's shit. It's incredible that a team which concedes at least 1.5 goals a game comfortably stays up every year.

>probably lose in the semis
Frank Lampard's Derby County beating Leeds would be the most hilarious thing ever

>Leeds
The way they are shitting the bed, it's far more likely to be West Brom or FLDC

>prime Huntelaar was there at the same time
Well that explains everything. I withdraw my earlier comments.

Huntelaar was lethal in the box

But that's why there won't be many tantrums.

Very well, I hearby unfuck Villa and apologize. But remember, englishman, we irish are not foreigners even when we are walking upon your english clay and impregnating our english wives.

>Would bet my ass

Do it then puto, if they don't I get to fuck your ass.

Bit gay lad

and they don't even fill it. By % of ground capacity filled, Bournemouth rank among the bottom in the Prem. Considering that absent ST holders and exec boxes (who rarely bother turning up) are still counted in matchday attendances, it's likely Bournemouth's real average is below 10k.

We do have our own league, however, we also have our own clubs in England and Scotland and we do support those teams by purchasing sky tv, wearing shirts, and actually attending matches

That's not the main gripe I have with them.
The main thing is that 4 years after promotion, Howe is STILL persisting with the same defence that got them promoted as League 1 runners-up with the exception of Nathan Ake. It's no wonder they're constantly shipping goals.

Makes me a bit concerned for Sheffield United considering their rise from L1 to the PL but Wilder is comfortably a better manager than Howe.

The tantrums will come from the clubs who didn't make it

That's just sad

Ask Liverpool and United if they appreciate the Irish support. Other clubs seething because we don't support them instead, calling us plastics when it was our guys like Best and Roy and Robbie Keane made the PL great.

I know, it's genuinely incredible. They've shipped 260 goals in just 4 seasons with doubtless more to come this year.

As a comparison to two other "stable" PL sides, Stoke and Swansea conceded only 204 and 205 respectively in their first 4 seasons.

Pure passion

AHAHAHAHAHA Holy shit

fair play to howe though, i'd much rather watch that football than someone like warnock who went to fulham today desperately needing a win and tried to sit back for a draw then lost lmao

villa have conceded shed loads too but scored a load too
before this 10 game streak, we had conceded the 2nd most in the league even though we were still midtable

>'it's okay to let my local league suffer so long as I keep buying Celtic/Liverpool shirts'

Oh true. People can say "muh Sala" and "muh controversial ref decisions" but Cardiff are going down because they should have never come up in the first place. Colin's style of football is absolute crap in the PL.

we have 5 national leagues bet even your 4th tier is regional

the teams in league 1 and 2 are at a far higher level than the 3rd or 4th tier equivalents in germany, spain or italy

They have a new east stand (top of the pic) as well

done extremely well with brentford on a shoestring budget and completely transformed villa with the same squad bruce was struggling with

No, actually, I don't remember a random article about lower league football from 6 years ago.

I like Howe but the media loves him and says he "works on a shoestring budget" despite spunking 20mil on Solanke. Meanwhile Dyche has to purchase players with 10p and a half eaten freddo and still ended up 7th last year

sad for Jack O'Connell but the more Jack O'Connell for us the better

why are you so angry at a manager keeping faith in players that have done him well, more managers should be like this
if anything, he's proved that the unit of the team as a whole matters more than having bigger name individual players

True Dyche has been great but too rough around the edges for London based FA

Because they're shite. It says a lot when their only PL quality defender is Nathan Ake.

Alright Mr Moyes.

Also Dyche eats worms while I bet Howe has never even eaten a moth

oh yeah mate i definitely remember that haha absolutely mental innit!
*pretend my phone has started vibrating it in my pocket and glance at it*

*pretending to be answering the phone and quickly get as far away from you as possible*

Do many muslims go to Villa or Birmingham city games? I went to Villa Park ages ago so I don't really remember.

Dyche's first manager was Brian Clough, definitely has had an effect on his management style

they're staying in the prem comfortably though
they're scoring enough goals to offset those conceded

>Dyche was a youth-team player at Nottingham Forest in the late 1980s, while Brian Clough was manager. When he joined Forest he was 5 ft 7 in (1.70 m) and weighed 10 stone, but grew to 6 ft 0 in (1.83 m) and 12 stone after a year. He broke his leg early in his career, which Dyche claims held him back. It also left him with a permanent bend in his leg.

sheff weds are supposedly the bigger club but they were relegated in 99/00 so i never knew them as a top flight club but sheff utd have been here before in my lifetime

We all know that defenders make the best managers but are they actually any strikers that have had a successful management career?

i genuinely can't think of any manager in english football that was a striker but could be forgetting someone

Ferguson was a striker but don't know if he matches your criteria

Farke

Nigel Clough is doing semi-alright, Olé was a striker but successful so far?

Again, I mean that bigger clubs more historically deserving of being in the PL (like Forest) have been going to really horrid times while Bournemouth is comfortably in the middle of the PL table.

I'm from Bristol

Ok I can agree with that

>I'm from Bristol
well that explains everything

the shittest city in England by footballing standards

That'd be Wakefield

Ferguson, Dalglish, Clough

Not in Britain but Valverde, Heynckes, Hitzfeld, Cruyf were all strickers or attacking midfielders

also Mancini, Michels, Aragones and Valeriy Lobanovskyi

uwotm8? darren ferguson was a midfielder but even if he was a striker that would be a rare exception because of his dad
>Nigel Clough
fair but again an exception because of his dad
>Olé was a striker but successful so far?
lmao, everyone spoke too soon after his early form
i'm not writing him off yet but let's wait until next season to give a proper judgement
ok fair but none are current

just realised the first poster was obviously on about alex and i'm a mong but can't be arsed to rewrite my post

not really, wakefield is much smaller than bristol and has several successful clubs within a few miles

the south west region as a whole is a fucking joke football wise

If I was you I'd have re-written that post because we all know you're definitely a proper massive mong now

I bet Norwich stay up and Brighton implode next year

>well that explains everything
kek

don't care i'm off my nut and showed it in previous posts
but my point still kind of stands, no one has named a current manager of one of the 92 english football league teams that was a striker in his playing career

oh, ok. Yeah, only Valverde and Mancini even though Mancini hasn't won anything for a while now

>a current manager of one of the 92 english football league teams that was a striker in his playing career
Klopp

...

No problem I'm completely unhinged also.
Farke and Hassenhuttl were forwards

>racist football chairmen wouldn't give sol a chance because he's black
>macclesfield are 10 points deep in the relegation zone and took a chance on him
>he has miraculously guided them to safety
will you admit that your were wrong Yea Forums? it was your racial prejudices that doubted his management ability

i reckon a championship club will hire him in the summer

who do you support? You can't replace Derby with any team with lower than two first division titles

I hated him because he was a tory though, nothing to do with race

Championship? Fucking racist.

Literally going through them now

Only two former goalkeepers as managers in the 92, Nuno and Adkins

well mannered rich black men like sol really do amuse me
they're torn between desperately wanting to be white and anger at white people for 'racism'

the two greatest english managers were both forwards, you're a fool

Not a first for Macclesfield, is it. Do you want your club to be the next Blackburn in this particular equation?

Based, can't believe he actually fucking did it. He just needs a draw to guarantee that Macclesfield stay up

Ramsey and Southgate were defenders la

>i reckon a championship club will hire him in the summer
Nobody would get promoted that quickly. However, eyes would take notice if he could actually get Macclesfield promoted.

>having two lucky seasons over forty fucking years ago makes you a big club even if you've been shit ever since and have barely any fans

Nigel Clough literally went from non-league to championship

>I hate this black guy for not wanting to wallow in self pity and entitlement

>forwards make the worst managers
>Rinus Michels
>Johan Cruijff
>Bobby Robson
>Alex Ferguson
>Kenny Dalglish
>Ottmar Hitzfeld
Just a random selection of managers who were forwards as players

Did he join mid-season for the non-league team?

>Only two former goalkeepers as managers in the 92, Nuno and Adkins
tim flowers has done an excellent job with solihull moors in the conference though
we'll see him in the football league soon

Where did you drink tonight mate? I've had a fair few at me local spoons.

and that would have never have happened if it wasn't for his surname

ok then, goalkeepers

literally here

Yes. 2nd match in charge was a league cup semi-final away at old trafford

>barely any fans
>literally always near the top of attendance numbers

Just a friendly reminder that Huddersfield have 3.

Getting on a bit already.

this club are so pathetic

they always come up but never do anything and go straight back down

there's never been a team like derby that has consistently been one of the better teams in the league, on the verge of promotion for so many years in a row but choke every time

and i do reckon they'll beat leeds in the playoffs then lose to vills

>Huddersfield have 3.
3 in a row too, quite the achievement desu

>tfw lost to the side that's won the play-offs in each of those three times
And all 3 went straight back down again

solihull moors were literally the number 1 favourites for relegation pre season and he guided them to second on a much smaller budget than teams around him

i hope solihull win the playoffs but if not, a league 1 or 2 club will definitely hire him

Would rather them over Salford City. Would rather any of the sides over Salford City

salford will likely face wrexham in the semis who i fancy to beat them
solihull have the easier route of flyde or harrogate

I like Tim, he was great for /my club/, but he's quite old to be starting out on a career in management.

still not that old in the scheme of things and it cannot be overstated how much of an amazing job he has done this season

i'm sure he will be on the shortlist of league 1 and 2 clubs and if he did a good job there then who knows what could happen

shame notts county have to go though

Meanwhile Leeds just never do anything

to be fair, they have definitely done something this season
it's just that it doesn't involve promotion

Klopp started as a striker (literally like his first year or so) and then changed to be a CB

English league players have been utterly exposed in the last few years. Apparently outside of the CL teams literally all England clubs exclusively have shit players.

>bargain of the season

The Championship player of the year was a free transfer. Some people would call that a bargain.

Riddle me this non Americans. How hard is it to establish premier teams who deserve the big leagues vs minor league shits

People that unironically think that “big teams” deserve the premier league are nostalgia fagging zoomers trying to fit in.
