We are deep in the grim footballing winter. The world cup is dead. Cristiano Ronaldo is dead. Liverpool's title ambitions are extremely dead. Leeds are crap. January, however, is also a time for positivity and expectations for the year ahead. Arsenal are winning the league. Newcastle are finishing top 4. Erling Haaland is going to break alan shearers career goals record in a single season. There are approximately 400 games a week. Frank Lampard still has a job. Here's the table: 10 points between 11th and 20th, the bottom half of the league is an absolute knife fight. Notable games this month include the title decider between arsenal and newcastle tomorrow, the manchester derby on the 14th, the north London derby on the 15th, and idk Leeds v west ham should be good for a laugh. Transfer window's open as well. Gakpo is off the board but still plenty of time for clubs to drop a comically large amount of money on some world cup guy who had 3 good games Marsch out

I was going to ask when the next game is but Arsenal v Newcastle tomorrow, phwoar. Also I'm feeling optimistic as a Villa fan for the first time in quite a while. It looks like we finally got a decent manager.

If Newcastle finish ahead of Manchester Red Flavour do they get to be the default team everyone understands people to mean when they just say "United"

Usually Tottenham Hotspur in 5th and in Champions League knock outs would be very good for this part of the season. Unfortunately we are playing the worst football in the league and have probably the worst defence in the top half. Hoping that Father January Transfer window can deliver a Centre back, a goalkeeper, a right back, a creative midfield player and some cover for Kulusevski. We can offer an Emerson Royale in exchange

If you haven't seen the Everton Brighton highlights from last night https://soccercatch.com/matches/18535166/everton-vs-brighton-hove-albion#media Lampard has got to be gone. The Everton 'play' on Brighton's fourth is shocking. The crowd is seething. Really enjoyable watch.

That's mad, Everton looked good for the first five mins and then massively fell away Edit: I keep coming back to it, it's amazing. Fluffing the free kick, and then instead of trying to keep the pressure on deciding to play back, and then doing a poo poo awful job of doing that. lol.

Get a load of this guy who doesn't know that $LUFC Fan Tokens are a form of cryptoasset that can be purchased on the Socios.com app using the digital currency, Chiliz ($CHZ).

Yeah but you'd get to vote for what song they'll play at half time. Surely that counts for something?

I don’t remember exactly how many Premier League clubs signed up with Socios but Arsenal definitely also were one and I doubt their fan token is doing much better.
