MASSIMO ODDO is love. MASSIMO ODDO is life.

agree

I used to play with that Bayern side on FIFA 08. Oddo was rated 83 or something. I remember dropping Lahm for Oddo because Lahm got burned so hard by Torres in the 08 Euro final

ok who cares about RVP, except some nice laughter at his memes

For the sake of Hans, I hope this happens asap.

Offtopic: have to say i'm disappointed with Oddo's Pescara, there was substantial hype behind them, maybe things would've been different if Lapadula stayed

Pescara has a poor team, its Oddo's work thats legit. They've given everyone they played a really hard time except for Lazio. Drew Napoli, Genoa, Torino and Samp. Beat Frosinone. Went close to Inter (lost 1-2). All respectable results for their squad. When they play some lower level teams I expect them to cement their place in Serie A safety.

Oddo, Simone Inzaghi, Montella and Di Francesco are some young coaches worth watching.

Stop hijacking the BPL thread ffs! gtfo!

holy smokes GL changes donkey_league to BPL!

Todays games:

AFC Bournemouth -Tottenham Hotspur
Arsenal - Middlesbrough
Burnley - Everton
Hull City - Stoke City
Leicester City - Crystal Palace
Swansea City - Watford
West Ham United - Sunderland
Liverpool - West Bromwich Albion

The highlighted fixtures are important for top 6, top 4 and for title contention.

Arsenal and Spurs have a chance to get ahead of ManCity. Everton need three points from such games if they seriously want to challenge for top 4.

Liverpool have a very bad record against Pulis. In the last 6 games, Liverpool drew 5 times and 1 loss. So we will see if Klopp can overcome Pulis challenge to get three points. WestBrom looked good against Spurs so this game might become interesting for the table.

With that said, I miss Arts previews this season.

Bournemouth vs Spurs is the early game today. The teams:

Boruc; Smith, Francis, Cook, Daniels; Surman, Arter; Ibe, Wilshere, King; Wilson

Lloris; Walker, Dier, Vertonghen, Rose; Wanyama, Dembele; Lamela, Alli, Eriksen; Son

I expect Spurs will win comfortably, but if agent Wilshere wants to finally turn up and do something that would be much appreciated.

This will go to Bournemouth. Spurs wasted a lot of energy midweek.

Didn't Spurs rotate a lot of players though? I might be wrong lol.

Rose, Vertonghen, Dier, Wanyama, Erikesen, Lamela, Son, Alli all started mid week.

Dembele came on after an hour.

How did that stay out, thought it was in

Rose's pub touches

Poc is rightly rotating the squad and prioritising EPL over Europe. **** Europe, who cares about if there are only 4 or 3 clubs playing in Europe in next coming seasons.

Ali with the double nutmeg, Lamela scuffs it unto the post. decent game so far

Wanyama with the pub touch under no pressure

Already as a player each week he looked like he came to the stadium straight from the opium den.

Can you read? 9 of 11 starting players identical to mid week.

These Spurs players just love getting booked

Decent game so far, impressed by how well Bournemouth are pressing. Lets see if they can keep this up

fight fight fight who is getting booked
