Harsh on whoever loses this

Can we just promote them both and relegate Leeds, Leicester and Everton alongside Southampton?

He wouldn't get anywhere near our first team.

Par for the course. I don’t remember the last playoff final that was of high quality

Fiorentina game must have come to life in the 2nd half. They lead 2-1 now, there’s a hatful of yellows for both sides including one for Mourinho.

Swansea v Reading was the best I ever saw. Must have been 2010/11 as we faced Swansea in their first Premier League match when we won the title.

On a side note, Reece Burke’s dad used to drink in The Hammers in East Ham.

There have been some very poor touches from both sets of players. These stand out because we are used to watching top kevel Premier league teams. Just at the end there, the Luton player in the right, when he took too heavier touch and the chance was gone. A lighter touch and a bit more pace and he would have been clean through on goal. Just about any Premier League player and that would've been a goal

Truth be told both these teams lack any real quality, they aren't even as good as Forest last year and they rebuilt their entire squad.
Both teams must be about 33/1 on to go straight back down.

Harsh yellow there. Not a penalty but he didn't dive either.

There was contact. Shouldn’t have been a yellow, and if Clark had been wearing the liverbird it would have been given. Wasn’t a penalty but it definitely would have been one of those where the badge might’ve swung it.

I don't see a lot of potential Premier league qualities on show.
