Holy shit. That's much worse than it appeared.
Degen, I'm sure he knew the keeper was coming out, just not necessarily all the way out of the box to where he was. Also, he needed to get the ball to his feet before the defenders caught up. He had no chance to chest that ball.

Probably because he was planning on playing QB for Maryland

Jesus FC. If they're being assesed as non-humans, atleast there's plenty of depth there, I guess? Mendy leaves a massive hole, Aguero just changes the shape.

The subplot that linked the two goals took the form of Dejan Lovren, who looked utterly discombobulated as Tottenham’s slick play passed him by. It was like one of those mysterious illnesses you hear about when someone wakes up from a bang on the head speaking fluent Etruscan. After half an hour playing with a disorientated defender, Klopp withdrew Lovren but by then the damage was done.

I'm guessing Joey Barton isn't a fan of the interim Everton coach
'He's a glorified PE teacher who shouldn't be in charge of a men's team,' the 35-year-old told talkSPORT. 'Look at him on the touchline, he's more like a steward.' 'I watched him waddling on to the coach. How can you get players to exert themselves physically when you're out of shape?' 'I used to watch him as an Evertonian and he was the most immobile left back I've ever seen. He's not a manager and doesn't look like one. 'Unsworth makes Alan Brazil look like an athlete. I used to call him Chipper Unsworth because he used to chip it and lose it every time. 'I'm a firm believer that teams reflect their manager and Everton did today. They were sloppy. 'Everton need to sort their managerial situation out because it can't be Unsworth.'
In case anyone is wondering, I'm having some issues this year. I'm more interested than ever, but the only sport I've ever really cared about with 80%+ expected outcomes is college basketball and I've never been on the good side of it. Feels strange. Is this why people go nuts for Champions league?

yes, and the fact that the big clubs who never play each other get to do so

yup or people just watch for entertainment and the spectacle of big events. Champions League matches have amazing atmospheres. In soccer I'm as neutral as it gets. Don't really have a team or a country. Just enjoy the skill on display.

They looked really strong against Spurs - without Harry Kane to be sure, but there was a stat mentioned during the game saturday that it's been something like 15 games since any team has scored against them at old Trafford.

I could only watch parts of the game, but it seemed like Spurs were the more likely to score in the first half, then United kinda took over. The Pogba injury has been huge. This team looked a bit like it could keep up with City for a few weeks there, but without PP, I doubt it.

Interesting first substitution in the Stoke vs. Leicester game this morning. Referee Bobby Madley was replaced by the fourth official Jon Moss after Madley injured his calf. The sub took several minutes because of all the watches and wires the refs have to carry during the game.
I went onto the Arsenal v. Man City game fully expecting a loss. About 75 minutes in, down 2-1, I was thinking I could walk with this loss not feeling horrible. The went up against a much better team, played well with a ton of heart and determination, but were just outclassed. Then I realized, this is Arsenal, of course they will find a way to make me pissed at the loss, but I couldn't think of how. Sure enough, City plays a ball through to a clearly offside player, and the entire D line stops, holds their arms up and yell at the linesman while City keep playing and score. I fucking hate when players do this. Put your fucking arm down, and keep playing until you hear the whistle. And how the fuck did the linesman miss that? It was right in front of him, and he looked to be in position.

So which of the usual recycled EPL Managers is next at West Brom? Allardyce? Steve Bruce? Pardew?
Villa are doing OK in the Championship, in a play-off position, can't see why Bruce would move across Birmingham to join the Baggies. Don't think anyone has managed all 3 of the Birmingham clubs.
