Premier League 2019-2020 we’re off

[fundy]

Homesick? Can't face another UK winter? Or is club looking to reduce wage bill?

Last year of contract and Arsenal werent offering a new one because of age, 2 year contract on offer in Spain. Was "only" on 70k so not a huge amount off the wage bill (also known as 20% of an Ozil ) Still think he shouldnt have been allowed to leave until Tierney fully fit

shocking tackle from saints player.
It could have been a straight red but to do that when already booked?
Has let his team down there as they were getting good possession.

Worst looking Chelsea squad in years, Zouma, Mount, Barkley, and Ok he scored a brace today but Abraham Really?

Lampard needs a miracle to finish top 6 with that lot. I hope he stays a long time though lol 😂

 

[chrisd]

Can we please stop the league season today - 4th I'd take that 👍👍👍

The Toon are out of the relegation zone 😀
Next match against Liverpool - bring it on 😬

Just get rid of VAR - how on Earth they didn’t overturn that Villa disallowed goal I’ll never know - bring in technology to apparently ensure now obvious errors and yet every week it happens

Mount and Abraham have been excellent this season - been really impressed from what I've seen of Abraham especially. Zouma's been dreadful but Barkley's hardly had a game, and the fella on Final Score said he was unlucky to be taken off after having an excellent game to that point. Their worst players have been Azpilicueta, Zouma and Kepa. I think in Kante, Abraham, Pulisic, Emerson, Mount, Kovacic and Jorginho they've got a more than decent core, just needs building on. They've got to give Lampard time.

Cos he dived, he got booked for it 😉

Firmino with a bit of confidence is a joy to watch. Has come to life in the 2nd half, and a cracking finish. Clinical performance from Liverpool this.

Yes thrashed them 2-0. Was surprised how poor Naartch was. Anderson was superb. As was Noble. Don’t know if they have toned the VAR down but there wasn’t a single delay today.

Clinical finishing yes, Burnley done ok first half, but for two stupid mistakes they could half gone in at half time 0-0.

If Salah hadn’t been so greedy twice and passed to Mane they would have won 4-0.

Well that’s a good start to the first part of the season before the international break - 12 points out of 12 👍

I agree, I watched the game, and when we can add Rudiger, Kante, Pedro and Reece to that core we’ll kick on a gear. Just got to keep there or there about’s whilst injuries come back and new partnerships are formed. If not for a brilliant save Abraham would have had a hatrick and then af 3-nil I think the game was won, but we sat back a little and I didn’t agree with the late double sub, I think that cost us the late goal, but Zouma isn’t the same player, and azpi’s legs are gone, his commitment is undeniable, he’s been a great servant but we need a different right back ASAP.

Don’t think the squad is that bad , some very bright exciting young talent with just a few mistakes at the back , expect they are going to push very well for the top 4 spot. Arsenal have the same issues and going to be tight with them.

Seems the young lad Zouma has been subjected to racist abuse on Twitter - something needs to be done to stop these supposed “fans” racially abusing their own players when they make a mistake

Cos he dived, he got booked for it 😉

It was shocking , clearly got clipped , tried staying on his feet got the pass away - both Friend and the VAR ref should be suspended - criminal

Don’t worry about him Dan, he is usually only on here til late jan, then hibernates until August after his lot are out of everything. Everybody just tolerates his drivel as it’s not for long👍

I thought it was a pretty poor game to stop start.
We put our chances away ,that’s good .
We never got out of second gear.
But 12 pts is all that counts.
Mane didn’t look to pleased with Salah or Klopp hard to tell, .

It's always going to be hard with the current squad and the transfer embargo so I think Chelsea need to be patient. Perhaps top 6 is a big ask but I think the youngsters can only improve with regular playing time

Almost The same squad that stopped your lot from getting CL football though.
