I thought they got rid of the double jeopardy rule?

 

Watch this end in a draw

 

Freaking karma

 

Chelsea the new Atleti.

 

If there's a genuine attempt to fairly win the ball.

 

Juve lost 1-0 to Empoli at home.

 

Both teams from Florence beat both teams from Turin today, follow the money.

 

Old firm day. Despite the covid issues, On paper the Rangers team is pretty much our starting line up (apart from Balagun at right back, and 3rd choice keeper). However, we have been playing pretty poor recently. Our strikers/attackers have been off the boil. Defence wobbly. Celtic have definitely improved since last season, and Kyogo looking signing of the season in the league. Definetely looks like it could be an exciting old firm match!

 

Celtic should be leading.

 

Good game, this. Something in it for both teams, especially with space in midfield.

 

Yeah, We are doing well to leave pitch with a draw. Slow pressing, 2nd to every ball, can't pass our way out. Celtic doing all of the previous well.

Ironically, Balagun probably our best player at keeping Kyogo relatively controlled.

 

Yeah Kyogo not dominating right now. Interesting to see how much more it opens up second half because I do think there is space for you to counter in midfield if you can move the ball through there.

 

I've just noticed there's no Patterson in the squad. Do you think he's off?

 

Sky say he is isolating. But my fear was he was about to be sold.

 

A wins a win, but it wasn't pretty. A poor first half for us, and an ok second half. 33% possession just shows how far we were off the pace of Celtic. Positive is at least we are still cranking out wins and not crumbling under pressure.

 

Absolute madness that Barnes didn’t get sent off there lol

 

Sonny :)

 

Dest not starting after being one of the best players of the first two games is…an interesting choice by Koeman.

 

I’m getting into the premier league this year for the first time. Hit me with teams that I should consider following that are: 1) not one of the big teams in the league and 2) are not likely to get relegated. Bonus points for more entertaining style of play but I’m not concerned about that ultimately.

 

Leeds playing Bielsa Ball seems to fit best, tbh.

 

Leeds would be fun.

 

Yeah my buddy rec’d Leeds and Brighton to me so those two I’ve been focusing on thus far.
