Play of the weekend.

Weird seeing Sterling in an Arsenal shirt. Good solid performance, get the feeling Spurs are slowly turning on Angeball.

As i stated during last season and also this seasons prediction thread, 'Ange' was nothing more than an extended purple patch when he first came in.

Will very much be found out this season

Same as Arne Slot

I got some very nasty DMs from Genome when I pointed out his unbelievable start last season was literally no better than Conte's.

Typical Genome

his unbelievable start last season was literally no better than Conte's.

towards the end of April, Spurs had won just 10 league games in half a year. Staggering stuff.

in fact, if people will allow me to, I could run that number again but do it in a way I really dislike where you run a stat across from one season to the next just because the summer break makes it seem worse

Just 9 league wins in 2024 so far

I hope this PL season doesn't turn into a procession. But here's the rub - City just don't lose at home to Forest. They don't do those sort of results. Or moreover, if they do, it's on the back of a ten game winning run, or they win the next 15.

Still, hearing into City's 130 (apparently, not 115) charges starts today, so popcorn.gif.

And Erling Haaland becomes the first player to score nine goals in his first four games of a PL season. Rooney held the previous record of eight.

We all know the title this year will be Citeh v the Arse (I actually think the Arse will get it right this time round ). Liverpool won't win it as they, as you say, always have far too many "stupid" results over a season (not too mention the lack of serious team investment year after year).

Rodri down after 3 seconds?!

Rodri down after 3 seconds?!

And now down and out, probably for quite a while.

[WestYorksRoyal]

Trossard with a stupid red card. If that was a Reading player in a key game I'd be absolutely fuming with him, not the ref.

[Royal Rother]

Not sure why 6 mins had become 7.5 mins of added time when Trossard did his daft deed.

What a dislikeable set of players/staff we have here

Between Walker ambling into position for the equaliser, Ederson being too weak in the challenge and Trossard ridiculously kicking the ball away on a yellow, Oliver isn’t to blame for any of it

How about they start taking some responsibility for their own mistakes?

[Sutekh]

Didnt Arsenal score in injury time?

Oh. That would explain it!

[katweslowski]

People always say how badly behaved players are. But rarely do managers get criticised.

Seeing Pep continually screaming, storming around, kicking the chair and last season Klopp doing similar things is honestly disgusting.

[Orion1871]

Strange thing to single Guardiola out for when he's currently against Arteta who is the worst in the league for tantrums.

[Orion1871]

Not a huge fan of Jack Grealish but I don't know how he doesn't get in the City team ahead of Doku.

[Winston Biscuit]

Going to be an odd 2nd half. Hope Arsenal can do it.
