I've recruited an undercover team to travel to present day Glasgow... To spy on you... The evidence they've sent back to my office is piling up!

I was correcting the account of someone using an alias account and did so with a after the post. I was not being entirely serious Eric!

We all know you aren't one for accuracy.... They have 105 league goals in 2017/18.

The English top league has not been called the Premiership since 2007.

Better to judge a player on his own merits rather than how his club did in one season.

How have you determined that?

Heisenberg is my alter ego

I'd use that word to describe your ability to judge player quality.

We have a better squad than Stoke. Saints are also currently playing better than Stoke and in a better place confidence wise. Of course Man City will want to win to get 100 points, but their players will be thinking of going to a World Cup injury free when they are faced with a 50/50 challenge on Sunday.

Zouma is not a contracted player in a relegated squad. The opening post of the thread asks about plundering relegated teams, Zouma is contracted to a team that will finish in the top 5. Stoke's relegation does not make Zouma cheaper to buy... he is a Chelsea player.

It doesn't match the criteria of the thread, as Chelsea have not been relegated so aren't there to be plundered.

To say a 62 year old former children's TV presenter is a better footballer than two Premier League regulars is not accurate. It is either a pathetic wind-up or delusional.

It would be better to judge a player on his on merits rather than how his club did in one season.

25th June 2016 when Nathan Redmond joined from Norwich City.

Zouma is a Chelsea player, the other two are not good enough.

You are right Batman, it is fake news! Finishing positions of Mark Hughes above 9th in the Premier League... 2005/06 - 6th 2007/08 - 7th 2010/11 - 8th

No, they say on each picture they are created by @conceptkits https://twitter.com/conceptkits Their bio says... So just someone having fun designing kits on request on Twitter. Not the real kits, an amateur designer with photoshop is all it takes.

Are Swansea capable of scoring 5? They've scored 27 goals in 37 games so far, scoring 5 in one game is very out of character! They've only scored 2 in the last 14 hours of football! How motivated will a World Cup bound Man City player be if he is in for a 50/50 challenge with a Saints player looking to stay up?

Why? His ability level has fallen off a cliff, he isn't remotely close to the player he once was.

In the scenario you outlined with both on the same points and GD... Saints would stay up due to scoring more goals this season (27 GF vs 37 GF). Swansea require a 10 goal swing in GD in order to stay up.

Sky Bet at the time I'm writing this are still offering 40/1 for Saints to go down... https://m.skybet.com/football/premier-league/event/20605583

Yup, Saints 0 Man City 3 & Swansea 2 Stoke 0 is probably as bad as it'll get on Sunday. There won't be a 10 goal swing in GD.
