EPL 2021-22

[RamjetFDO 10604]

Well that just fucking sucked.

Most unrepresentative 3-2 result ever. Watford clearly the better side today.

[SimonBolivar 10962]

AVFC got 2 back @ Watford which will help the goal differential at least, I guess.

Nice diving headed goal for DCL.  Everton fans love Rafa now?

I'm not a scouser, but I've followed Everton for a while now, and I thought he was a reasonable choice.

Everton completely dominated the 2nd half today, but some online fans were already melting down at halftime.

[ztejas 43752]

Maybe I'm W1 overreacting but this feels like a year where someone weird gets relegated or flirts with it. 

[midtown 3348]

Ha.  They are shouting USA for Josh Sargent at Carrow Road

[mdmost 43321]

Has anyone noticed much VAR action today? I was expecting a stop down on the Liverpool goal but it was right on to the kickoff.

Salah with a Neymar type shot by a sniper

Heard a few positive notes today on commentary regarding supposed officiating changes. 

1. Refs trying to let play continue and allow more contact.

2. Offsides line will play "thicker" this season - tie goes to the runner type deal instead of the horseshit millimeter based decision making.

3. Flags are being encouraged to go up quicker when it's obvious.

Soccer is so much better without 8 VAR breaks  
 

Cheers to Mike Riley and the officials through the first 24 hours of the season. Hope it keeps up. 

[midtown 3348]

How can they not get that in.  I need a goal by Norwich to get some points on the predictor app

Probably because this guy is world class.

Best in the world

[ztejas 43752]

We would have scored 4 if we had played 2nd. 

Just so y'all know.

New Castle v. West Ham has been really entertaining so far.

For fuck's sake, this.  

[mdmost 43321]

Hammers tie it up on a nice header. 
 

It was a quick play but I bet that one definitely gets looked at if they were still under last season's VAR rules.

Hammers up on a penalty that was blocked and put back in on the rebound. 

[mdmost 43321]

Harry Kane not in the lineup for the Spurs. So either he's having another hissy fit or he's on his way out. 

[LonghornJudas 1113]

Time for the yearly reminder.

3D chess by Pep to keep Kane out of the lineup. 

[RamjetFDO 10604]

Hate seeing Jack in that kit, but damn if I don't love seeing stadiums full of singing fans.

[Stringer 1472]

Entertaining weekend so far with goals flying in everywhere. No scoreless draws, only one 1-0 match, one 2 goal match and the rest have been 3 goals and up. And no draws at all. Great weekend back

Yes.

[WBT 20764]

Damn, that Cruyff turn by Mahrez though

[mdmost 43321]

Son should've fired it in there. Not going to get that many good counters on City.

They've been too hesitant on counters, especially Son.

[LonghornJudas 1113]

What a goal.

Exactly. Take your shots when you have them. 

[SimonBolivar 10962]

This is almost as exciting as the MLS!

[ztejas 43752]

Just flipped it on. COYS. Let's make this race interesting in a hurry. 

Damn. Just saw that goal. What a fucking screamer.

if Tottenham can get 150M pounds for Kane, take it and spend it on depth.  Kane is aging, injury prone, and a bitch, and that money could be used to solidify the squad.

 

[Schulz2.0 29065]

Grealish being a huge flopping pussy fits in very well with this City squad.

[mdmost 43321]

Grealish sure seems to fall down easily. 

[ztejas 43752]

Timo Werner would be proud of that effort. 

[ztejas 43752]

Holy fuck that was dangerous. 2-0 please!

Do I need to spell out my question? Why is he not starting. Not everything I say is regarded despite your best efforts to frame it.

KDB looks like he's had extra mayo with his fries since Euro.
