Liverpool will fail midway through the season

Arsenal will flop

Spurs will always be over rated

Man Utd will win

Cheatski could also win

Man City go bust

Blackburn to prehaps struggle

Hull for the drop

Newcastle, need I say more?

Aston Villa to spend a little more for mid table

Everton spend even more

Bolton boring

Middlesbrough, big nose might get sacked or be in that pack about the zone

Sunderland, roy keane says something, wants more money, goes on about respect, should be shot

Stoke, hull?

Wigan another slighty boring team?

West brom a bit boring but not as boring as the rest

Portsmouth, we'll probably struggle to finish better than last season

we'll see what happens. liverpool always chokes at the start, but so far not this year :)

Yay you have nothing against west ham!

Liverpool struggled really this week and last week but true grit shone through in the end for them got to be careful tho not to let that drop into the CL qualifications a CL without Liverpool is like a teapot without a spout.

i think (so far) the difference between this years liverpool team and last years team is that last year when they played bad they lost. This year they are playing bad and finding ways to win, which is a straight of championship caliber team. Hopefully they keep this up...

Gunners looks thinner than ever. :( I am really starting to hate Gallas! He kicks fits when other people mess up but when he does (which is quite often) nobody says nothing!!!! I'm usually tollerant with players..Including Eboue but to be fair, I can not wait till his contract runs out. he is the weak link in our defence.

The sooner Diaby, Rosicky, Eduardo come back the better! Also, Johan Djourou is going to shine..People say we need a tall defender..This lad is 6ft 4!

yup, just like last season we had a slow start but now were gonna fight for the other 36 games lol

Now, you have to be fair. You may consider that a slow start, but Newcastle played a hell of a game and a win for them would not have been undeserved. I'm rather sick of all the Big-4 fans talking about how their team screwed up rather than acknowledging other teams achievements.

and to be honest Newcastle is terrible and god knows why they are still in the premiership. Man U played like garbage. And i am saying this as someone who completely hates them. They lost the game more then Newcastle won it.

The recovery of Eduardo is "ahead of schedule" according to Ars?ne Wenger.

The Arsenal striker has been out since suffering a broken fibula and dislocated ankle at Birmingham on February 23.

"Eduardo is progressing amazingly quickly," said the Frenchman. "He should be ahead of schedule let's say."

It is positive news but the Croatian is still going to be the last of the four-strong injury list to return.

"The closest is Silvestre," said Wenger. "He should be available after the international break. Abou Diaby, for me, is three weeks away. We don't really know about Tomas Rosicky yet."

More Rumours...

West Ham boss Alan Curbishley is under increasing pressure at Upton Park, with Croatia coach Slaven Bilic interested in succeeding him. (The Independent)

I hope for the sake of West Ham that this is true, because Bilic would be a brilliant signing and it seems that the board have lost all confidence in Alan Curbishley having made decisions like selling players without his approval. I addition to this though, someone like Bilic would definately be a better manager and not spend millions on useless players and pay stupid wages per player.

    • [NEWS] Over 105000 games are available to play on Linux.

      By FateTrap · Posted

      I am one of the first people to use the DXVK technology. In the channel below you can see some videos that I have made using this technology, including Assassin's Creed Odyssey. https://www.youtube.com/@nahum7995/videos Assassin's Creed Odyssey experienced several bugs and technical issues during its first months after release. It launched with its own fair share of funny but frustrating glitches. I ran it on DXVK 9 days after its release and I played it for many hours but didn't see a single significant bug on Linux. Assassin's Creed Odyssey is widely celebrated for pushing the franchise in bold new directions and specifically for nailing several elements better than any other title in the AC series: Player Choice & Branching Narrative, The Mercenary & Cultist System, Mythological Integration, Overpowered Combat Abilities, Open World Exploration But what I'm trying to point out is that this game wasn't quite playable on most windows systems, until a few months after its release when most of the bugs were fixed. However, on Linux it ran completely flawless from day one, although DXVK had seen little development and refinement at the time. What do you think the situation will be in 2026 now that most bugs and glitches of DXVK have been completely eliminated? This is information from Google about these situations that I am quoting. In many cases, using DXVK (a translation layer that converts DirectX 9, 10, or 11 into Vulkan) can result in more stable frame times and higher performance than native Windows rendering. This happens primarily by bypassing driver overhead and multithreading draw calls that were previously restricted to a single CPU core. Older APIs (like DirectX 9 and 11) are largely single-threaded on the CPU side. DXVK translates these calls to Vulkan, which is highly multi-threaded. This reduces CPU-bound stuttering on weaker processors. In certain cases, GPU manufacturers (especially AMD) have significantly better and more modern Vulkan drivers than they do for legacy DirectX. Vulkan gives developers—and in this case, the translation layer—closer control over how resources are held in VRAM. This can prevent micro-stutters and sudden frame drops during chaotic gameplay. Yes, certain games, particularly older DirectX 9 to 11 titles, can run with fewer crashes on DXVK than on native Windows. By intercepting DirectX draw calls and translating them into the modern, highly efficient Vulkan API, DXVK bypasses the limitations and poor driver support that cause instability in aging game engines. PlayStation 1, PlayStation 2 and PlayStation 3 can be easily and perfectly emulated on Linux. In fact, modern Linux emulators offer high-performance upscaling, widescreen patches, and automatic controller mapping out of the box.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 PlayStation 1/2/3 games look drastically better on Linux thanks to resolution upscaling. Furthermore, it is also a fact that you cannot play many fun games on Windows either, isn't it? - The Nintendo Switch has an extensive library of exclusive games. - PlayStation has an extensive library of exclusive games - Android has "mobile-exclusive" games, meaning they are exclusive to mobile devices (iOS and Android) and aren't available on PC or consoles. And finally, it is also the case that in the next five years there will be games that millions of people will say you absolutely must play and that they want to play this specific game that released a few days ago. However, the other side of this story is that currently, absolutely no one cares that they cannot play these upcoming games right now.
