Midweek Predictions for a Road Warrior Weekend:
Spurs at City - Draw, 2-2;
Liverpool at Southampton - 4-0 Liverpool;
Burnley at Arsenal - Ashley Barnes has a field day and the Clarets prevail on the road, 2-1;
Leicester City at Chelsea - Chelsea gets into the W column, 2-1;
Man U at Wolves - Draw - 2-2;

Good call.

At least you got the score right?

No credit for Ashley Barnes having a nice game? He did have a goal and would have had an assist if Chris Woods hadn't blown a chippy! Just kidding - predicting a good game from a striker going up against David Luiz is like shooting fish in a barrel, probably not worthy of being credited...

Rivalries are what make sports fun. I'm a Packer, Cub & Cyclone fan who has lived in Chicago, Minneapolis and Iowa City. For my entire life I've been able to "talk trash" with Bear / Viking, Cardinal and Hawkeye fans in a good-natured manner.

Yet I come on a message board where I share something in common with almost all others, our love of Iowa State, and find I can't engage in "trash talk" with Arsenal fans regarding their rivalry with Spurs. Live and learn I guess...

He had more fouls than touches.

It’s not that you can’t. It’s that you’re really bad at it.

Being condescending isn’t “trash talk”, it’s being an a$$hole.

I didn't realize Paul Rhoads was the new Juve manager?
