I mean it was one preseason game and he missed a couple of sitters. When he gets his feet under him and learns the style of play, he's going to be a force. He has a nose for the ball and his awareness was pretty good on Saturday, he just couldn't cash in.

as far as i can tell.. 8 of the 10 games for Matchweek 1 will be on Peacock.

and don't forget, if you can't catch the game at 6am, or you're at work for the game at 2pm, you can't even watch the match once you wake up and/or get off work! just a super streaming model they've got there.

to me he's like the Adrian Peterson of european football; essentially no weaknesses, while possessing every strength you could ever need to play his position: size, strength, power, speed, vision, and is extremely prolific at scoring. Halaand really is the entire package. i think he's going to tear shit up in the EPL, to the point where i expect him to do things like win the golden boot and eventually become the best player in the league.

Rule no 1 of Futbol board is not doing the comparison of players to American athletes in other sports. Get your shit together. Unless this was all a ruse then well done.

yeah, the delay in instant access is less than ideal.

Can't stroll into your living room at 9:30am and start the 9am game on Peacock.

Leeds is going to be salty and not sweat relegation.

Not a flop - but I think Haaland is going to take longer than some think to adapt and really get things going.

2022 and I still have no clue what constitutes a handball.

Saw a quote that "what is a handball" is very similar to "add salt" to a recipe.  Pretty accurate. How much salt? Who TF knows, since we all prefer a different amount.

Nah minutes 30-80 were complete trash for us.

Which is accurate. Palace in all honesty deserved a draw. But we ain’t complaining about all three.
