Neither of you are contending let alone making CL so maybe start a PM to conclude who's the 3rd best team in London.

[shadow_operative 15,932]

yeah sorry for making that post in such an out of place thread.

Chelsea, then West Ham, then . . . should be a good battle for third between the Bees, Tottenham, and Arsenal.

Crystal Palace will be last in London.  Brighton & Hove just stole a point at Selhurst Park.  equalizing goal in extra time.

it's getting chippy AF.  looks like Brighton players and CP fans about to throw down after the match.

want to know how difficult or easy your favorite club's schedule has been so far compared to other clubs?

most difficult : 1) Norwich, 2) Southampton, 3) Crystal Palace

easiest: 1) Wolves, 2) Liverpool, 3) West Ham

what nice is you can fashion any stretch within the schedule to gage what coming.

Arsenal and Tottenham killing Chelsea's average.

YouTube TV is about to lose all of the NBC channels.  so if you have YouTube TV but not Peacock, a lot of EPL games will be gone.

[Captain Ron 12,922]

how are Vax rates in the EPL This low. WTF?!?

[Captain Ron 12,922]

It appears that FIFA and the PL have come to an agreement on the players in red-list countries with the British government granting exemptions for EPL players who are fully vaccinated not having to quarantine.

This came to a head after the last break because of actions by a few South American countries. They invoked a FIFA rule that stated players not released for their World Cup qualifiers were suspended from playing for five days.

Healthy, young people who have been told their whole lives to avoid putting shit in their bodies or the governing board will suspend them?

I guess? I also see a way of preventing an illness which could have serious consequences and long term ramifications on their careers. Just look at Karl Darlow.

Not saying I agree, just saying what many of the players are saying

Very nice counter by Everton there. De Gea didn’t event move.

[sidis 9,832]

Please tell me one of you has a vid of the Townsend goal celebration.

Timo Werner is cursed

Seriously.  He needs a goal so badly and he had one robbed by bullshit VAR and another on a fantastic save.  Tough day at the office.

[TexArcher 38,070]

And that's a red, isn't it?  Very late, right at the Achilles, studs showing...

I thought yellow real time, but on replay he's got to go...

That’s a red for me.

The goal itself was a thing of counter-attacking beauty. Topped off by the celebration. 

 

[TexArcher 38,070]

Timo Werner will not be denied!!

Holy shit, nice game from him, finally.

[Firemans4Horn 18,123]

Damn,

 

What a nice square ball by azpilicueta

[Jive Turkey 12,644]

What a goal by Chelsea. Gorgeous. And important. They need all 3 points. 

[Firemans4Horn 18,123]

Alex McCarthy is a one man Alamo. 

[Captain Ron 12,922]

Last day before the break. Brentford making a case for the #2 team in london.

[WBT 20,670]

holy shit, Brentford!

[Captain Ron 12,922]

HOLY SHIT!! BRENTFORD!!!

[mdmost 43,053]

The Bees are that f'ing team.

Nice dive Foden. 

[midtown 3,348]

How is that not a foul on Milner?

[ztejas 43,539]

That free kick was horrendous. 

[TexArcher 38,070]

Jeez, that was pretty.

[TexArcher 38,070]

Annnnnd, so was that.

Hell of a match.

[TexArcher 38,070]

Mo Salah is a cheat code.

[ztejas 43,539]

What a game. 

[TexArcher 38,070]

Good lord.

[Captain Ron 12,922]

Hell of a game. Shame it ended in a tie. But fitting.

I thought it was a great result, personally.

[Jive Turkey 12,644]

The amount of post-game respect between the two managers and players was impressive and pretty cool to see. 

Love NBC sticking with the coverage with no commentary. 

[hobbes2702 13,074]

Mo Salah is the best forward in the league. Maybe the best player. 

[Huckleberry 33,100]

Just watched my recording. Great match, so many great plays all over the place. Salah's goal and Rodri's tackle/block were other-worldly.

[Firemans4Horn 18,123]

This might be the best goal I’ve ever watched live
