And Brighton go to Newcastle and play them off the park .Not many sides will be doing that to the toon .

Absolutely. My seagulls & redmen double was a great shout!

Was almost annoyed at the saved pen, as I also had a Liverpool with w/ BTTS!

Cheslea sat back with 11 men .
Spoils the game . 10 men on a bus.
But if the ref needs 2233017, member: 18970"]I just think if you go one down at half time your still in the game with 11 men.
Just can’t understand the challenge he was away but still got the keeper to beat, not the end of the world 1-0.
Thought Chelsea played quite well second half.
Alison made some great saves.
But the red Changed the game, can’t play Liverpool with 10 men.
Gin I played well but only scores when wearing a Orange shirt he could have had a hatrick today.
The keeper well what can you say, but good from Mane.
Fabiano brilliant today.

?? but well done on the win! Enjoy lamperty while you can ??

I didn't get to see much of it but wow, that Spurs result was a huge surprise. Southampton must be in dire straights if we managed to create 5 chances let alone 5 goals. And lots of people (including me) have tipped them to be decent this season. Did my fantasy team wonders letting Ings have two as well, since I have him and Kane.

Crazy how a team that did so well at the back end of last season can turn so crap in a short time. We're notoriously slow starters, hopefully today was a good early kick up the backside!

A round of applause for the Crystal Palace away kit ?. Not quite as good as the wonderfully South American Southampton kit but still a nice change from the norm.

.

History lesson time, its actually a wonderfully Sotonian south american kit

Saints played well first half , but missed several easy chances.
Bad finishing straight at the keeper ,but some very good saves as well from Loris.
But they defended like a pub team second half.
Kane and Son took them apart.
Fabulous finishing from Son..

He is an unreal finisher. Everyone goes on about how we need a back-up striker, and it's not that I disagree, but what striker could we ever sign that's happy to sit on the bench and has better finishing than Son?? I don't think there is anyone.

I know it’s a cliche but Son never looks like missing when he is 1v1, fantastic player.

Kane’s assist for his 3rd was unbelievable today, it’s an area of his game he doesn’t get enough credit for usually.

Thing I love about Son is that he's equally good on his left or his right. Makes it so hard for defenders to block a shot when he can go either side. And Kane has a terrific all round game, yeah. Him and Son usually work well together with Son running off Kane as he goes deeper, obviously never better than they did today.

Bale left, Son right, Kane middle. Tasty. Just need 5 more decent players to go with them

I think Kane plays his best a bit deeper but still gets in the box.
Loses his marker then but you need runners to fill the spaces.
Bale and Son would do that.

No one has mentioned the team at the top of the league, so I will put that right.

Leicester looked good this evening and Thomas Castagne looks a great signing.

 

[clubchamp98]

No booking for the dive from Sterling?
He has started early.

 

[Piece]

City look quite tasty in that 45 mins.

 

[Reemul]

Poor finishing from Wolves in the second half cost them at least a point.

3 west ham staff / players fail a pre match covid test apparently.

Diop
Cullen
Moyes

Temp test rather than actual covid test

Yes I saw this.....it's the first time West Ham have had 3 positive results for a long time. ?

Orient had their own issues recently. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2020/sep/21/leyton-orient-covid-19-carabao-cup-tottenham-spurs One of our consultants is the club doctor and apparently the Orient training facility was inspected yesterday (assume by government and FA officals) in what he described as a CQC hospital inspection and a lot of issues to the point where they are looking to close down the training facility today (not sure if they have now) and so Orient won't be able to train or at least need to look for somewhere that complies.
