Greenlizard0 Premier League Football Thread ** spoilers ** [7th - 8th October 2023]

So happy with that. Very cagey game but other than some dodgy keeping from Raya early they didn't really trouble us at all. For all the negativity I direct towards Eddie, Haaland was much worse.
 
Just thinking that's one of the few times we've actually looked better after some substitutions. Even Havertz was an upgrade!
Havertz is a good player - he's got presence, moves well, and a good touch. He's just not a player you bring in expecting him to do things himself. Give him time, he'll be ok.

Rice was fantastic, MOTM for me

Not so sure on Havertz but agree on Rice, he was immense today.
 
Good result for Arsenal. Need a few more teams to start beating City. Long way to go and if they get their bad patch out of the way before they go into the City mode after christmas they‘ll still win the league with ease.

KdB still to come back.
He won't come back insta peak KBD. I said at the start of the season City have lost too many of their important moment match winners from last season. There are there for the taking.
Back to back league defeats for Pep are rare and it’s a great result for the league but City are still doing a 10-15 game win streak end of the season.

They were absolutely woeful today mind and that goal summed up the game.

I bet you they don't do a 15 game winning streak this season. A depleted Arsenal took them again. Another Haaland blank in the big games. But he will get four against Young Boys and Bournemouth in a couple of weeks.

They will and Haaland seems to have you absolutely frothing hahahaha
 
He doesn't have me frothing, I just don't see him scoring in tight games against the big clubs when It matters. The decisive winning goal. I see him get two when they are battering Wolves. Did he get any in the run in to the champions league in the crucial moments in games. No the players that have left had to step in. Again, Kane would get battered for that.
 
We had all the games on today. 1 red at the death. There could have been more. They say the refs aren't influenced by anything outside of their game but you can see Webb has had a word this weekend. Maybe they haven't had an email to press buttons this weekend?
 
If there is ever a time to take advantage of City's complacency, it's this season after doing the treble. Wouldn't be surprised if they don't win the league but win the CL again, they'll turn up for the knockout big games but over 38 games might not have the hunger
