Lads, it's the Premier League thread - EPL 2019/20

two yellows drawn by Traore today

im guessing 3 of stoppage

Wanted the win today but it's another unbeaten, another good performance. Some big games coming up now.

Oh and Spurs.

really bummed that they didn't manage, that one opportunity late that was put on the wrong foot coulda done it (I forget who it was fed to).

but oh well still haven't lost in league play since Sept.

gotta say this fellaini to tottenham rumour is a great way to start the week

Man, you beat me to it there! It's sweet!

It's a good 'un

That's not dribbling, it's running

enjoyed this reprise. originally about hatem ben arfa iirc.

just checked where ben arfa is playing now. is he retired or what? remember SV raving about his performances for Nice which got him a move to PSG where he did nothing for 2 years apparently before leaving for rennes.

oh i thought ben arfa/capote before it hit the back of the net tbf, valid comment

oh shit xp

its an ilx classic reclamation

wondering how long pep will stubbornly play fernandinho at CB even though his absence in MF is completely wrecking City? even a ropey stones/otomendi pairing but with fernandinho playing at the base of midfield would be more viable at this point surely, hell chuck a youth teamer in at CB just don't fuck up the MF.

Sounds about right but I'd probably swap in one of those training dummies for Stones

Understand it's highly likely that Minamino joins Liverpool in January. Expect it to happen. Exciting deal. #LFC

Tasty.

Wheels might be coming off a bit for Lampard.

If it stays like this, either Spurs or Wolves could be a couple of points behind them tomorrow.

never had any doubt he'd be brutally exposed as a useless twat over the course of a prem season.

Just had the same thought, also the other day pondering whether Lampard's ability to sign in January might be an unsettling factor as much as a strengthening one

Villa have been so bad today. just soooooo fucking bad. no confidence, no ideas.

Got to think of all that lovely lovely Chinese money!

Apparently we only score wonder-goals now.

where's our noodle vague/neanderthal double-act, this is like the ilx derby

apparently i shouldn't go to the bathroom during a game

fuck me, bit cocky there Adama

don't wanna kiss of death this but now way do Spurs shut us out for the whole game

love to hear how lucas offers us nothing from ppl who defend the fellas autopicked who had us in relegation form all year

far be it from me to speculate but i'm guessing this is about 10,000 percent more entertaining than Man U - Everton

wolves look like narrowly failing to score with every attack

yep theyre a better team than we can keep out, movement wise

if one or two of our front 3 calmed down and laid off the right pass i'd feel more confident

this is like the 90s

xp feel if spurs picked a decent pass on counter itd be promising our way too

conclusive proof here that Europe is just an unnecessary knackering distraction for us small clubs

clear pen obv

(xp) You mean Wolves and Spurs, I assume.

lol VAR

swear to god if i ever get married again it'll be to Joao Moutinho

thats what dele is good at

clear pen, say it again

oh shit thank god that was Dier

dele kind of awful besides, when i can tell him and son apart on this stream

god this wolves side is fun

wouldn't really have moaned if that pen had been given, VAR is shit :D

it isnt a "rage for days" one, and it wouldnt have been given before var anyway so

Meanwhile, Ferguson must be enjoying the Man Utd game. Duncan, that is.

de Gea was shite for the Everton goal, but he was pretty clearly fouled

nothing from VAR

doesn't bode well when you play like that for 40-odd minutes and don't score

helluva frenzied half that was. I'm half-asleep so I didn't bother to pull my laptop up lol.

hope they can find the net in the second half.
