Follow the money.  

RBL, Leverkusen, and Hoffenheim have way more €€€.  Schalke doesn’t even have a storied history on it’s side.

I hate it. It kills both Champions League and EPL in one shot. Fuck every bit of it.

Damn - this Villa/Leeds match is end-to-end.  28th minute and a scoreless draw, but great skill, team passing, and a couple of opportunities for each team that should've scored, but were stopped by excellent defense/goalkeeping play.

[MoJames 8256]

Ex-Chelsea prodigy Bamford has to make that.

Would have been a great goal.

[MoJames 8256]

Or at least put it on goal.

[RamjetFDO 10578]

One of the best scoreless first halves I've seen ... Leeds will give a lot of teams a lot of trouble for the rest of the season.

[Cheeseweasel 26438]

That was close, Grelish.

[Cheeseweasel 26438]

Damn. Leeds leads.

[RamjetFDO 10578]

Yup ... Leeds are legit.  They definitely jumped on Villa and deserved that one.

[SimonBolivar 10960]

Well poop

Poacher's goal. Bamford is legit.

[Cheeseweasel 26438]

Mings should have been booked for that, the reaction, not the contact.

Bamford with the dagger. What a goal.

[MoJames 8256]

oh god damn that second.

[RamjetFDO 10578]

Ouch.  Bamford is *definitely* legit.

[MoJames 8256]

lol Ross Barkley with the "defense"

Hatty for Bamford. Wow.

[RamjetFDO 10578]

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu....  thank God we only have to play Bamford once more this year.

[Jive Turkey 12648]

fucking Leeds.  what a fun team.

Jeeeezus, Southampton is absolutely working us bad. First half was a big step backwards. Would be nice if they woke up for second half. 

[Captain Ron 12931]

The 2nd half was slightly better, but the Digne red card ended that. 

[sidis 9832]

Blew a great opportunity to separate a bit. Saints outworked every ball by a long shot. We looked awful. Too much reckless bullshit. Straight reds in last two.

And Pickford's was worse than both of the reds.

why are they asking a striker to play defense?

I want a picture of @ztejas throwing shit at his TV while this was occurring.

I was outside smoking. Probably a good thing. 

And now that Kepa is on the outs I'm much less likely to blow a gasket during a Chelsea game. Although I got close when Werner didn't cross the ball to a wide fucking open Pulisic streaking down the right side for what would have been an almost guaranteed goal.

Gotta say, Mendy was VERY impressive. And I have to laugh that Frank relegated Kepa to 3rd behind a guy who's old enough to be his father.

Yeah... I wish that was the case. Maybe it is after his latest fuckup against Southampton, but Willy didn't get the start last week.

And yeah Mendy looks awesome. Outside of him almost kicking the ball into our net, but hey, gotta temper expectations.

Willy was on the bench Saturday, right?

He was - so hopefully that's the end of Kepa.

Just saying it wasn't the case a week ago, unfortunately.

[MoJames 8256]

Ok, ztejas. Rest of the year, I want to see if you can only be critical of Chelsea without mentioning Pulisic unless you are directly being critical of Pulisic.

Challenge accepted. After everything I've posted you think Puli escapes my criticism? I guess I didn't put it on record in the Chelsea thread but I thought he was a touch or two off on Saturday and said as much to a buddy postgame. Didn't I give my MOTM to Reece? I'm really trying over here Mo - taking notes and everything.

Eh. Not that impressive. He had a wide open net.

Yeah, but his teammate was trying to stop him.

True. It was excellent marking from him just couldn't get the right touch on the ball.

[RamjetFDO 10578]

Ugh. Not Villa's day.

[Captain Ron 12931]

No, Soton really took it to them for the first 60. The first half was the JWP show, 2 stellar free kicks and a pin point assist.

This late run was just too little, too late.

[sidis 9832]

Welp, it was fun while it lasted but we’ve reverted back to mid-table purgatory. No James or richarlison and no goals.

That was a shit call on the pen. VAR sucks x10000

Feel bad for Danny Ings.
