Soylent Brown Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Newcastle faking fouls and injuries as if their lives depended on it. If they stayed on their feet they'd probably be three up by now. Didn't they announce a crackdown on time wasting this season? It seems there's more than ever so far.

BigFatCoward Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Bringing de bruyne on when 5-0 up is proper cunty behavior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Consigliere Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 So just another hattrick for Haaland. Imagine how much better he would be if he were 1) a Guardiola player and 2) Premier League ProvenTM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Consigliere Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 This is quite the surprise – Romero reporting that Inter has reached an agreement with Barca for Jordi Alba on loan. Barca will be covering 60% of his wages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigFatCoward Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Preston ramping up the entertainment with another goal, 2 x 1-0 and 5 x 0-0. Apparently they have faced 95 shots without conceding goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soylent Brown Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Fuck Newcastle's horrible cheating dickheads. The amount of cheating in the games I've seen this season is making them almost unwatchable for me. (Even more so than our play.) Almost all of the 'smaller' teams do it now - has the Premier League issued a style guide for time wasting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iskaral Pust Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Liverpool were lucky to grab that winner and their quality tonight didn’t really deserve it. OTOH, Newcastle were time wasting, fouling and cheating all night and deserved to lose. @Soylent Brown is right that games are becoming unwatchable because cynical cheating goes unchecked in so many matches. The PL will regret it if they lose the skill and high tempo that drew the audience. Elliott and Carvalho were both very good, with echoes of Elliott’s bright start last season before his injury. But there’s a lot of very flat play out there from players who look out of ideas against any organized defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soylent Brown Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 I'm still not convinced by Elliott at all. All style and no substance. He plays most of his 'killer' passes into the legs of defenders, and there were a few occasions tonight he killed our counter attacks by doing neat little turns on the ball rather than passing it through quickly.

Soylent Brown Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 And if we thought it was bad tonight, we play Everton on Saturday and they have the biggest cheat in the league. Anthony Gordon will spend more time on the ground than the ball will in play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Horse Named Stranger Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 So Liverpool got their mojo back now, by grinding out one goal wins, and finding that last minute goal. Those 9-0 demolition jobs are nice, but the scrappy one goal games are the big points over the course of a season. Diaz should've done better in the first half after Firmino's through ball.

Aye. And for the best football experience, I'll take a tight 1-0 with a last minute winner over dishing out a 9-0 battering every single week. Unless it's Tottenham. Would be lovely to batter them 9-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raja Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Tyrone mings is so so bad. He's just so afraid of the ball. I know villa were poor, but so much of that was down to Gerrard insisting they play out from the back with Konsa & Mings, who were terrible at doing that. Martinelli so good again & Sambi was tidy.

I"m glad Martinelli was good because last week he was pants. ESR didn't look convincing coming in though and Eddie needs to find some end product for all the work he puts in. Getting tired of wasting chances. Villa being the assholes they were, Odegaard comes out with a knock after a particularly harsh tackle and Ramsdale might have a hamstring injury. Not great.

Teng Ai Hui Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 I’m really enjoying Arsenal’s new policy: If you score a goal against us, we’ll score one against you. In less than ten minutes, guaranteed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
