The Official 2017/18 Premier League Thread

Very entertaining game last night. One of the most entertaining games I can remember seeing in recent years apart from Spurs games.

Thought the Arsenal attack looks immense, hope they're without Sanchez before we face them. The amount of chances they created against an organized Chelsea team without defensive injuries (I think) was very impressive. That defense though, with that midfield ahead of them... Niles looks a real player though.

Tyler: "Bellerin, YESSSS!!!!!"

Disgusting.

I just got that.

Its a Merson favourite on soccer saturday, so I find it quite irritating!

Ive also noticed when watching soccer saturday Mersons brain realises roosterney rhyming slang before actual words.

There was one point a while back where they cut to him and he shouts "He's hit the beans! So close, [PLAYER] has come in from the left, hit it to the right and hit the Beans on Toast! Yeah its hit the, um, err...p.p.post"

 

[Gazza]

His scoring rate has fallen off big time. He was utter dogbrick tonight. It was the lack of movement that got me, even more than the misses.

Sounds like marital problems

Alex Pritchard back in the Prem for Huddersfield Town. Will be interesting to see how he will perform on this level

 

[Rorschach]

Leicester really should have at least one goal already. They are carving Chelsea apart.

 

[the dza]

Both teams look like they will concede, Leicester should be infront though.

 

[Rorschach]

If I say anything derogatory about Morata he'll score, so let me just say Vardy is useless.

 

[the dza]

Mahrez looks excellent so far in this game.

 

[the dza]

Leicester need to get infront, Chelsea wont be this bad 2nd half.

 

[ricky2tricky4city]

Cahill.....GONE.

Mahrez looks excellent so far in this game.

He's just so dangerous one on one.

 

[the dza]

He's just so dangerous one on one.

He has got Rudiger on toast right now. They need to make it count though.

 

[the dza]

Morata, for his size, goes down easier than almost any player I've ever seen. The refs know it too, so he's not even gaining an advantage from it.

Southampton 2 up at Watford -- ever since I thought Silva looked like a decent coach, their results have gone to sh1t!

Tony 'I'm a fudging taco' Gale didn't think that was a pen. I've seen them given

Tony 'I'm a fudging taco' Gale didn't think that was a pen.

Right? That was a penalty imo, the guy just stopped as Mahrez ran at him at pace, it was a foul.

How are Leicester not winning this?

This ref is a qunt as well -- Kante, his usual 3 bookable offences before his first yellow card. Leicester player does one, straight out with the yellow. And they wonder why VAR is coming into the game.

If I spent as much time on the Chelsea bench as Willian..... I'd be fuming.

Leicester look very much back in a rhythm...very organised and playing for their manager.

 

[Rorschach]

Well that's handed it to Chelsea.
