EPL Matchday 3

[LFC2010]

Worth every penny we paid for him

 

[Cruyff14]

That's 9 goals conceded from 3 games now.

We're in trouble. Especially if Arnie is injured.

How long is he expected to be out for?

He has made a huge difference to your side.

Happy with arsenals first win though we didn't play too well, i was shitting myself when we were 2-1 up just thought we were going to drop the points, our defense is so bad, west ham probably a little unlucky not to get anything from the game.

Not sure what's going on with ozil.

Need lacazette and aubameyang to start together and torreira needs to start

 

[jd2010]

Arsenal west ham was like watching kids who’d had too much sugar run around and try and kick a ball. Arsenal deserved the win

 

[jod23]

Pleased with the win over Brighton. We didnt play very well and havent really been at our best all season yet but ill take 3 wins from 3!

I thought we were unlucky in two instances too. The tackle on Milner is surely a straight red and then I thought Ryan absolute running over Firmino and getting nowhere near the ball was a pretty clear penalty. Yet somehow Ryan got a FK?!? GKers are too protected for me.

 

[RossFC]

Looks like Sarri is enjoying the prem.

For the Ryan one, they showed vision with Ryan only having eyes for the ball in the air but you see Firmino look straight at Ryan, and move straight in front of him almost like blocking for a mark in AFL.

What replay were you watching? I watched the replay and Firmino only has eyes for the football too. Then Ryan just comes and absolutely cleans him up without touching the ball. I thought it was a pen but GKs are protected.

I was surprised when I first heard him speak how good his English is.

Look at the list of teams and it's not that impressive.
Brighton x2 - 34 goals in 38 games
Huddersfield - 28 goals in 38 games
Palace - This year so hard to tell
Southampton - 37 in 38
West Ham - Hopeless so far this year
Newcastle - 39 in 38
Everton - 44 in 38
Watford - 44 in 38
Bournemouth - 45 in 38
Stoke - 35 in 38

Not exactly high powered offensive teams there... I'd be extremely disappointed if you didn't keep a clean sheet against them with or without Van Dijk.

[jd2010]

Have I heard right that he hasn’t conceded a goal at Anfield since joining?

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

St. James' is a horror ground for us, I'd almost be happy to settle for a draw.

 

[Bradesmaen]

No. He was responsible for Tottenham drawing.

Crazy really considering how many different managers and players both clubs have had that these bogey grounds exist!

Could have sworn I remembered him in that game. My mate said nah he hasn’t conceded there. Is that the only two goals conceded? Still bloody impressive!

He worked in London previously as a merchant banker.

3 actually. He didnt play in the City game of course, wouldn't want him embarrassed. 7 games there last season but again you have to look at the quality of teams that visited Liverpool in those games.

Hadn’t managed a team yet at 35 I think I read. Bizzare rise to the top

VvD gave away the penalty that drew the game level.
The Wanyama thundercampaigner was no one's fault.

Actually the Wanyama goal was the fault of Karius for his inept punch. Who punches it along the ground and straight out infront of goal...

 

[jd2010]

Can’t think of a games result hinging on one players performance as much as Pogba on Monday night since Bale carried us

I am more than willing to lay into Karius as he was pumped up something shocking, but he punched that 25 yards away from goal, I think it'd be harsh to blame him for that. That's a good strong punch.
The fact it was rocketed back into the top corner is purely down to the player hitting one as sweet as can be.

Hope the Spurs players have done their research ahead of the game.
