Greenlizard0 PL & Championship Football Thread ** spoilers ** [17th - 19th Sept 2021]

Rudiger's a nasty piece of work. Can't imagine many neutrals would mind him getting taken out.

Plays next to a guy who shouldn’t even be playing football.

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

I quite like him. He doesn't seem nasty or overly aggressive, just a bit of a ****house

He's a German Pepe without the psycho look in his eyes.

 

[el_dazza]

Werner is hilarious.

 

[manic111]

Chelsea may as well have bought Andre deGrasse to play up front. Quicker than Werner and probably as good at football

Hes a massive ****.

Poor Lukaku, ignored twice and then blocks the eventual shot on target. Probably would have been a tap in if they passed to him.

 

[McBain]

Spurs are gash, freak result against City aside look at their goals scored. ... bottom half of the table beckons this season.

 

[manic111]

What odds would you have got on goals from Silva, Kante and Rudiger today?!

 

[Robbo]

Chelsea have schooled Spurs here, not really a surprise I suppose.

 

[G-MAN2004]

Should be 5-0 if our finishing wasn't so bad.

 

[McBain]

What odds would you have got on goals from Silva, Kante and Rudiger today?!

Long.

I had Ronaldo, Vardy and Lukaku at 14/1. To say I’m not happy is an understatement

 

[Ayahuasca]

What odds would you have got on goals from Silva, Kante and Rudiger today?!

Would be huge odds, 100/1 at least as a raw guess.

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

Spurs need a new midfield. Zero creativity and zero protection for the defence.

 

[Somnambulist]

We’ll make Spurs look like world-beaters next week don’t worry.

 

[el_dazza]

I got all 3 scores right today

 

[manic111]

Be an interesting race between Arsenal and Spurs this season. They're both awful

 

[omnomnom]

You can't tackle like that in the box in much the same way you can't leave your arm out like Shaw did. Shaw can put his arm wherever he likes as long as it doesn't get hit and the defender can tackle Ronaldo like that that as long as he gets the ball. Shaws arm was hit and the defender didn't get the ball. Both should have been penalties. Only one was.

Nor can your legs just collapse onto the defender with zero contact which is arguably just as much as a foul.
There has to be enough contact to bring the player down…

 

[manic111]

No there doesn't... Surely then you're just punishing players with better balance?

 

[Ayahuasca]

Is that 0 league goals for Kane so far then? His choice to play as a midfielder for large parts of the game or Nuno’s?

They've also only scored one goal from open play, so I'm not sure it's wholly at his door

He looks completely disinterested which I guess isn’t surprising.
