The Official 2019/20 Premier League Thread

I don’t think it’s that simple, it’s an issue of emotion in part at least. Arsenal (for no good reason I could see) seemed to feel aggrieved and it served them well. I couldn’t believe their appeals for handball against Grealish when he kicked it against himself and I’m pretty sure it didn’t touch his hand. They were all jumping around dementedly, even Guendouzi as he picked up possession again. You need some fire in the belly when you play football, helps with momentum and focus.

TBF sounds like Var yet again went the way of the home side

Just a bit. How TF have Villa not had a penalty at the end? What an absolute joke.

Refs are scared and rely on VAR
Var won’t overrule a ref
So whose to blame?!?!?

It’s a shambles

What a surprise "not', it is perfection.

Blatant handball not given for Villa.

Also, Chelsea's goal ruled out seemed nonsense: 6 or 7 passes + 3 Liverpool players touched the ball afterwards. Stupid to go back so far, the 1 inch offside wasn't the reason for the goal.

Tbh VAR is making me care less about football as to me it just seems complete rubbish.

Scary thing is their manager was a great CB

 

[Bedfordspurs]

My fault... I thought they still had Bruce in charge when i posted

Haven’t a clue about Wilders playing career

Yep
Can’t think of villas manager so I used united instead

 

[nayenezgani]

Sheffield actually play some decent stuff..

 

[SteveAWOL]

Yup, the Blades are exceeding expectations and I see that despite all the dressing room turmoil we’re still projected to finish in top 3.

They are so fudging unbelievably lucky

 

[Kandi1977]

fudging hell! fudging Bin dippers must be the luckiest lot in the universe! Sheffield doing very well, and then the GK makes a howler.

 

[Jordinho]

Why are we even playing any more games this season?

 

[Kandi1977]

Stfu VVD, you fudging massive lump of a clam.

 

[paxtonwolf]

Oh my how did Sterling miss that?

It's almost like City want Liverpool to win the League now as well

 

[paxtonwolf]

Absoultely nailed on when Sheffield United came to NWHL, that goalie has his best game of the season

If they dont win it this season, they never will.

Getting all the luck so far, City not firing on all cylinders, and hardly anybody else looks capable of mounting a sustained challenge

 

[scaramanga]

Someone needs to foul De Bruyne again. He's about to lose his brick and it'll be funny

 

[Bullet]

Impressive that City can play away from home at a fairly local rival... start without Bernardo Silva, David Silva and Aguero... and win by 2 clear goals.
They rode their luck with some close range headers that went straight at Ederson.
Then Pickford let in a fairly easy save whereas Ederson made a fantastic save.
That was the difference.
