The Premier League 2019/20 thread - sorry Harry

[hallelujah]

get in, hope you sorted yer fartasy team - its on

Yep. Ready to roll with no City or Liverpool players allowed in my team.

I don't think I'll be winning it.

Season 2019/20 kicks off.

[hallelujah]

Season 2019/20 kicks off.

Couple of good chances there for Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarwich. The difference a top class finisher makes at this level.

First goal of the season goes to Hanley of Norwich

[NamPikToot]

have to feel for Norwich, that is tough opening game - they are about staying up - sorry Guzzi - hope it don't get too ugly

[hallelujah]

Poor finishing and even worse defending. They've looked ok going forward, but I haven't seen defending like this since the last time the Jones 'n Smalling show was rolled out.

On the plus side, it won't be games like this that decide their season.

[hallelujah]

I'll tell you what, in recent times I haven't seen Liverpool cut open as much as they were tonight either; they looked very suspect at the back and, with better finishing on the Canaries' part, that could have been a lot closer.

[hallelujah]

And a welcome back to the greasy chip butty song from the Blades:



Although I suspect that the greasy chip butties, woodbines and pints of Tetleys will be mostly for drowning their sorrows this season before their inevitable return to Division 2 (and before you start mithering, it will always be division 2 to me).

[Bettyboo]

Good to see the Norwich scum get slaughtered, long may it continue. I very much hope they get relegated along with Brighton and Arsenal...




The big game is at the Mecca of football today, here's a preview:

[cyrille]

Could be a few games in which they score but lose by some margin, or maybe they will switch to the 9-0-1 formation with Tony Pulis at the end of November.

[Dillinger]

I wouldn't write Norwich off yet. They won the second half yesterday, had 12 shots on goal and were missing 2 Central defenders and a defensive midfielder.

Theyll turn Newcastle over next week

[Bettyboo]

Much as I hate to say it, they may stay up. Well organized with a few decent players, they'll get some results here and there.

[Switch]

Norwich are a half decent side, but they only have the one way of playing. Their defence is very suspect and hasn't been strengthened. Farke isn't worried about relegation. He is secure whatever happens.

Liverpool are scary good if you allow them to play, which the Norwich system encourages.

For Hal, it won't be Tetley's, It's a gallon of Magnet. An IPA.

From the kick off they really surprised me and they were also a little bit more solid after the break. If they play like that every week, they'll be great to watch and a credit to the manager.

I think they've only spent a few million too.

[cyrille]

Liverpool had the game in the bag and eased off.

Norwich had two months to prepare for that game and must have been told not to let Salah run in behind and to defend corners aggressively.

The cross for van dijk's goal would have embarrassed a league two defence. Floated in and he had all day.

Bollocks to being great to watch....survival and getting the basics right is key.

As far as Thaiguzzi is concerned, perhaps. However, I'm not a Norwich fan, so gimme entertainment any day of the week whenever they're on the telly.

[Neverna]

5-0 to Man City!

West Ham 0 - 5 Manchester City

[NamPikToot]

Where's that bouncy fuker, he's normally quick to let us know how well the ME team has done - puncture perhaps.

Rubbish, if I was a Norwich fan or fan of any club for that matter I'd rather see them play entertaining football and lose 4-3 every week and get relegated than being tortured with Pulis/Mourinho/George Graham style wank

Down the bookies sticking his septruplet bet on

[Bettyboo]

I'm currently watching Ipswich v Sunderland on iFollow TV, cost 5 Great British Pounds. It's like a fella in the stadium with a camcorder and a mic that doesn't work properly. I rarely see worse Youtube productions; laughably poor...

[Chittychangchang]

Anything Liverpool can do, We can do

BETTER!!!!
