Premier League 2019-2020 we’re off

ME.

Me, I seen it first.

I think that will happen soon anyway.
All tackles will be banned within 5 yrs the way it’s going.
It will be a non contact sport soon.

Thank God, Mane will have retired by then.

Whilst the injury was awful for the player the foul itself was a yellow at most , the player getting injured as a result of a “foul” that wasn’t reckless etc shouldnt imo have been upgraded to a red

Atkinson reacted to the injury which shows how poor a ref he really is and even worse is VAR should have looked at the tackle and overturned the red card at the time

Good to hear Gomez surgery went well

As for the cup - it’s no surprise really they aren’t moving the match , it means they have now forced the club to play a youth team in the cup. I hope the club priorities are with the club World Cup and this is the start of the demise of the League Cup - imo it’s run it’s course now especially with more internationals being played

Who is "they". The club in their own statement said the EFL suggested other dates.

If anything Liverpool probably decided to write the cup off instead of play more games later.

Id be surprised if you don't prioritise the world club cup as its the one that is ever so slightly more respected, but will also have better financial advantages.

If our kids can turn Arsenal's 1st team over and score 5, we have a chance against Villa.

I would put a under 18 side out just to protest.
The Authorities here do nothing to help teams.
Just pay any fine.
I am sure the lads on here would throw a few bob in a crowd fund for us.

The red card for Son has been overturned. Rightly so in my opinion, the challenge should never have been more than a yellow in the first place, the injury was a freak accident. Yes the tackle caused the loss of balance but it did not cause the injury.

Hopefully having had his successful surgery now Gomes can focus on recovery and come back fit and healthy.

In other news.. Xhaka stripped of the Arsenal captaincy, that is the best news us Arsenal fans have had in weeks.

Chelsea v Ajax has had a decent opening 20 minutes, 3 goals already.

In other news Brighton (currently a heady 8th)
Will not be getting anymore points from the next four prem games as they have the worst run imaginable coming up starting with United away ,and then it gets worse . Leicester at home Liverpool away then arsenal away.cant see many points coming from that lot.

Right decision the red card being overturned ,trouble is Atkinson probably cost us a win.

Ajax down to 9 and 4-3 up, could be a good last 20 minutes.

Oops 4-4

VAR saved you from a defeat.

Frank Sinclair says the ref ought to take his Ajax shirt off!
He's having an emotional night, sounds like an interesting game though.

Ajax imploded but a good point for Chelsea after being 4-1 down.

And you can’t keep that man Abraham from scoring 😗

 

[Deleted member 16999]

Great game at the Bridge for the neutral, be interesting to see how Chelsea fans viewed it, 4-1 down back to 4-4 and a goal disallowed by VAR for Chelsea for handball.

He's that confident he's scoring own goals now 😂

Caught a fish, first dip.

 

[fundy]

Another day another structure for the players to try, like lucky dip under Emery lol

5 at the back against a pub team. No DM, so we are letting Vitoria shoot from everywhere.

Getting battered so far.
