Lowensda Posted August 17, 2013 Report Share Posted August 17, 2013 Mignolet is a top keeper though. Stoke are shite. Liverpool though, playing very well. Impressed by this In-depth coverage by BT.

Matt Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Just saw the Arsenal highlights. The referee had an absolute shocker! Special mention for the Villa rat bastard, applauding the 2nd yellow. Disgusts me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woud me right up, can't stand that cunt. What winds me up even more, he actually thinks he is a good player! When in reality 9/10 he is about as useful as a chocolate tea pot.

pete0 Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Palace look lively, giving Spurs a fright when they go forward. Pity the runners aren't on the same wave length for the final ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve_E Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Palace look lively, giving Spurs a fright when they go forward. Pity the runners aren't on the same wave length for the final ball. I don't think Palace have threatened at all in the first half. Spurs need to do better with their final ball. They always have plenty of people in the box attacking both posts at the penalty spot but Lennon has picked out the wrong option twice and Rose needs to remove his blinkers. Palace are generally defending agressively though, they're doing that well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palace are generally defending agressively though, they're doing that well. First 20 mins it was Palace looking the more threatening, final ball was threatening enough to create a chance just the runner didn't read the play. Agree on Lennon, he has a case of the Baros', deserved to be subbed for not pulling it back. Very harsh pen, nothing he could do to get his arm out of the way.

They always have plenty of people in the box attacking both posts at the penalty spot but Lennon has picked out the wrong option twice and Rose needs to remove his blinkers. Palace are generally defending agressively though, they're doing that well. I thought Palace were really poor. They had the quality of a pub side and Gabbidon didnt seem to be able to pass the ball within 5 yards of a teammate. They did show a lot if fight though. Spurs on the other hand didnt seem fully wound up, they certainly werent very cohesive for most of the game. However they got the win with a clear pen and it will be interesting to see how they play next time. The Chelsea vs Hull match is quite entertaining though, as Chelsea are all over them. Hull seem to be able to pop it about but as soon as they get pressured they fold and Chelsea flood forward. They look very sharp and by far the best of the title contenders so far.

Matt Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Think Hull look useless to be honest. Based on the 2 games today, can see Hull and Palace going down. Can see it being over by Christmas for them both! Chelsea looking like all the hype is justified. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalziel Kane Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 I've been really apprehensive about the start of the new season and now it's upon us, it's going to do no favors whatsoever. I can't abide Chelsea and no fan of Tottenham either and seems they both won (or will win) today, even if the level of opposition is poor. I saw something that Liverpool managed a win yesterday and that just makes things a little more hard to take. Perhaps the worse thing about the season is when teams you genuinely don't like get a result, be it they stole a win by playing poorly, or got a comprehensive win from a good performance. It really doesn't make much difference in all you get is angry and irritated. would have wanted Crystal Palace and Hull City to get their respective wins today, but it wasn't to be unfortunately.

GoodisonRoad Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 Think Chelsea will walk the league tbh. I haven't seen the game but I thought they would before the season started. Some real quality players in that team. Same could be said about Spurs I guess but they didn't look all that impressive against palace before. Might just need time to gel though I think. Dembele came off at one point for Capoue, now that's what you call strength in depth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoodisonRoad Posted August 18, 2013 Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 BVB 2-1 up against Braunschweig, left it late though. Who scored Zoo? I only managed to catch the first half and that was a bit of a snooze fest. I heard Aubamayang scored a hattick last week though. Look like they have more strength In depth this year Dortmund. Hope they pip Bayern to the title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoo Posted August 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2013 If you look up the term 'arse-rape' in the dictionary you will find a picture of Levente's badge. @GR: Hoffman scored the first and then was fouled in the box for a penalty which Reus converted. The two goals for BVB came at around 75 and 84 minutes. EB pulled one back into the 88th minute through a corner after terrible defending from Lewandowski but couldn't get another.
