A Manchester Derby and a London Derby are just the start. We've also got a few cheeky wagers, a fable about silly coloured goal nets, some classic N'Golo Kante tales and plenty of seasons crumbling into the rubble of shattered dreams.
The boy is back and not only did Winston get a start for the Hammers against Everton without being eased back in at all, he wore the captain’s armband too.
Up until recently it seemed a fair question to ask. Leeds were rolling along nicely and looking set for the Championship playoffs while Chris Wood was scoring every flippin' week.
Yeah alrighty then folks, seems we’ve got a title race on our hands after all. It was never a forgone conclusion, clearly, but most of the season it’s felt like Chelsea’s trophy to lose.
You need a last minute equaliser, Chris Wood's your boy. You need a hatty in continental competition then you turn to Jeremy Brockie. You wanna know what's up with the lot of them, read Flying Kiwis.
The little Spaniard, David Silva, joined Manchester City in 2010. There is no player who has created more chances (598) or assists (63) in the time since. Never gets nominated for awards though, the poor lad.
The All Whites named what was supposedly their strongest possible squad for the World Cup qualifiers against Fiji last month. That obviously changed when Winston Reid pulled out injured but the original sentiment still told a story.
That's Chris Wood: EFL Team of the Season selection and runner-up in the Championship Player of the Year (and Month for March) stakes to you there, Jerry.
The playoffs are gone. The draw with Sydney coupled with Perth Glory beating Brisbane 3-1 means the Phoenix’s season has just 90 minutes left, ain’t gonna be no bonus footy for the Wellingtonians. But… the drama!
The title race lives on, there's a pulse and everything thanks to that crazy Spurs comeback. Chelsea can hear the footsteps creeping up. They couldn’t… could they? Nah probably not.
Wenger is too careful to burn the place down just to stay warm in the meantime but he also doesn’t have to worry about building for someone else’s future. Stay humble here, Arsenal fans, but we could be about to see one of those drastic squad overhauls…
Right now this week’s Chris Wood goal came… oh no wait… he didn’t score. Huh. That’s strange. Just the 17th game of the Championship season that he hasn't found the net in, Ol' Woody.
Playing from a position where anything other than a win would effectively (if not officially) eliminate them, the Nix have scored eight goals and conceded a grand total of zilch. 8-0 in their last 180 combined minutes.
The corner has been rounded, the season is headed towards its ferocious conclusion. Hey and a Merseyside Derby ain’t the worst way to signal that final direction either.
A much better performance, you reckon? A better style of footy, better goals? Sure… but the score-line was exactly the same.
Yeah alright then, who saw that coming? Doesn’t even matter how many international dudes are missing, every extra fella that skips off they score another goal.
Hudson’s Heroes did what they had to do and now we move on to the next game. One game at a time, taking care of business, etc.
It’s pretty much over, we all know that. If the Nix were gonna save this thing then they really needed somehow not to lose to Western Sydney Wanderers on the weekend.
Souleymane Doukara cut inside towards the box and Fikayo Tomori made a super sloppy challenge which led to the referee's whistle sounding loudly. Chris Wood smashed it down the middle from the penalty spot for his second goal.
Oh so you thought that Pep Guardiola was just gonna waltz on in and immediately win everything with Manchester City?
