Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - RIP Diogo Jota

our problem is in midfield and that is on the club. we need midfield controllers and have for years.

casemiro has been out for too many matches. eriksen is a big loss. sabitzer is a no-buy.

newcastle just running through open midfield all day

spurs could push us down to 5th.

lol, after this weekend Spurs would have played 2 more games than yall and Newcastle, yall aint gotta be worried about them

Love a former Arsenal product getting over on United. Isak showed United how a man up front really plays.

Ain't no way in hell you coulda told me Newcastle would (likely) be in the Champions League. And they HAVENT EVEN SPENT MONEY LIKE THAT YET

Depending on form, it's possible for Arsenal to win the League and Spurs to drop out of Europe entirely. (6 points between them and Brighton and they play each other next week on two days less rest.)

The race is nuts all over. Arsenal/City for the title, United/Newcastle/Spurs for the UCL spots, like 7 teams trying not to get relegated.


What a season, friends.

Fam why would you subject yourself to that

Lol, I enjoy their coverage. Rebecca, the Robbies, and Tim Howard are fun. Plus for now, they are bigging up Arsenal to win the league.

They still don't entirely trust their American viewership, though. They do American-style hype like "this is a revenge game" every once in awhile.

I'm like, I got up at six in the morning to watch football, you don't have to talk to me like that. But I guess they're talking to Americans who have just stumbled onto the PL when they do that sort of thing.

Pananthinaikos missed a penalty in the 98th minute to fukk up my money. There's nothing Milan can do in the next month to top that. I'm numb

Napoli vs Milan next. Been a good day

Ayoooo, weren’t these nikkas supposed to be in a title race a month ago?

brentford up next. a tough run of fixtures and then head-to-head against spurs ... in this form we could be out of both cups and in 5th in a few weeks.

i just heard a stat that we have won 12 points in 9 games/27 points.

 

[hashmander]

damn WTF happened to yanited, they were just in the title race the other day or so i was told.

 

[J Money]

Ten haag lost the match himself still starting Weghorst

If Martial or Sancho are fit no need to olay him, just play Rashford upfront

But United should open the cheque book for Osimhen, they badly need a striker

There's still A LOT of uninitiated watchers in America. There's a lot of story lines in the PL that are understood, or are moot points to those who follow the game.
I don't think its about trust per se, just a difference in style. There's an American (sports) journalism school of thought that says you should "assume much of the audience is watching for the first time ever".

Its a country of 300+ million people and most of them aren't soccer fans.

Ten Hag. The new Fergie

Leao hat trick incoming

I think Everton is a trap, too. Sean Dyche squeezes points out of games his squads have no business getting anything from.
