Greenlizard0 PL & Championship Football Thread ** spoilers ** [11th - 14th Sep 2020]

[adam cool dude]

Just watched Bielsa's post match. What a top bloke. Leeds are really lucky to have a manager like him. Who ever brought him over to Leeds need a big pat on the back.

Opening Weekend Guys.

Lets have it.

First and last time I'm doing this for the record, but I had to celebrate Leeds' first fixture somehow.

I fully expect us to be 3-0 down after 30 mins, get a harsh lesson in PL football and us to enter the transfer market to bolster the squad.

HOPEFULLY, we can produce good performance and keep it respectable, no way are we going to get any points from the game.

Why was the city game posponed?

Why was the city game posponed?

United and City got more pre season time due to their Euro runs last season.

The score line flatters them is what im saying. I thought they played ok but they werent as good as people are making out.

There are a number of reasons why our performance was better than ‘ok’. People probably can appreciate the makeshift defensive pairing, inexperienced keeper, vs your strongest lineup, our first game in the PL, away to the Champions, scoring 3, more possession etc.

I’m sure there are as many reasons why Liverpool were poor but credit where credit is due. We were really good and proud of what I saw.

It would have been disallowed anyway but why would Perez even touch that on the line.

Get in, good goal by new player Castagne.

Vardy's off the mark

I know it's 2 penalties for Leicester, but west brom have offered nothing all game, they're going to be in trouble from the start I think.

They looked okay for the first 30 mins but offered nothing since. They haven’t improved the team since promotion though so not surprising.

Really like Leicester's burgundy coloured kit, classy.

Hes always been considered a really top class manager, just a massive nutter and a bit of a wild-card.

 

[robfosters]

Bloody hell

 

[omnomnom]

Listening on the radio they said Richarlison was stumbling...no, no he wasnt.

Hahaha

Commentators didn't seem to want to mention that he could have cut it square for a tap in either.

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

Not impressed with either team in this game and Everton don't appear to have much pace.

 

[Converge]

I fancy Everton for this one and to do a lot better this season.

Anyone else watching it on Sky in UHD and finding the sound cutting out every so often? Or is it just me?

 

[The_One]

1 - 0 Everton

 

[robfosters]

Spurs look dreadful

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

Spurs are going to have a tough season, they've looked woeful today.

 

[BaZ87]

Not even one game into the season and I'm already looking forward to the Mourinho/Levy fallout.
