  1. 3 games in and we're already facing a 2-week international break before the next round... @Dan goes into it in 1st place, after a joint-high 21pts takes him 5 points clear. I also got 21 points which took me from 4th bottom to 4th from top. The new leader got 3 perfect scores, as did @CaaC (John) who only dealt in perfect scores - his 3 the only ones he profited from in addition to the 5-point bonus to get the second-highest score of the week. @Pyfish goes off the bottom after scoring 10 points. It's quite a close league already, with 9 points the gap from 2nd through to 11th. And it could continue to change considerably after the break with the difference in range of scores being 11...
  2. No, I know what it meant. I just think it's such a weird 'insult' as if it's a 10 year-old saying it
  3. Don't get the controversy over Rice's 2nd yellow. Seen some fans say it was harsh. But it's a clear yellow for delaying the restart. Refs have been booking that kind of petulance (?) for a while. To do it on a yellow is just stupid.
  4. Maybe fuming was too harsh. But very annoyed if he's on my team not finishing it! Obviously not gonna change the result or outcome, so it'll be short lived, but just take the goal, don't take the piss.
  5. Man Utd performance has been embarrassingly shameful. Liverpool superb, but Man Utd totally at the other end of the spectrum.
  6. I'd be fuming at Szoboszlai for not finishing that chance. Very unprofessional and lazy.
  7. Casemiro at fault again. Utd don't seem to have anything about them. Defensively weak, midfield mistakes, forwards non-existent.
  8. Just as I say that, Liverpool do score Casemiro wasteful in possession. Liverpool take advantage and Diaz scores a header at the back post.
  9. Only watched from just after half time but barring a couple of long-range shots from Maddison and Porro, Newcastle looked comfortable. The goal was so simple. Maddison on a booking can't foul Joelinton. Then the high line from Spurs is almost too high, plenty of space to run in behind for a pacy Newcastle side. Then they just saw out the game professionally. Spurs should and could arguably do much better than having Johnson on their right wing. Gets in good positions but end product is lacking. Son was crowded out, and they didn't have much attacking threat considering they were chasing the game for the final 10-15 mins.
  10. Such a lovely guy, always smiling. RIP Sol. Crap few weeks it's been. Craig Shakespeare, Sven, Sol.
  11. The Gateshead run will probably run out soon
  12. It's an odd one considering there's a mix of experienced and injury prone, or inexperienced and not injury prone...
