2023-2024 EPL Season

Weird choice not to restart from half IMO. But it's small potatoes in the grand scheme, glad Lockyer is okay

I’d say if you’re gonna restart, just restart from the point it was abandoned.

If you’re not gonna restart, then going from the beginning makes sense.

Seems really odd to restart a game that was over 50 minutes old and there was goals scored. To me both teams would have been happy if they didn't even finish the game and let the result stand. Luton getting a point on the road is good for them and Bournemouth not letting a relegation threat get the full 3 is also a good for them.

Great to see Tom Lockyer was discharged from Hospital today.

There have been games in other leagues that have been finished from the point where they have bene stopped. So yes, restarting from the beginning does feel a very English solution.

Just for all the folks that said LFC wasn’t getting another early kickoff this season (yall know who you are), they were flexed into the early game on Feb 17. So yeah, that was quick

At this point i think you’re so used to early kickoffs it’s becoming an advantage for you guys. Cheat!

Funny you call others cheats when you openly bragged about earning money on matches set up by your referee friend.

And you failed to see the irony. Who are surprised?

I saw the irony. Just wanted to remind you that you are an asshat.

No need. Never denied that. A wealthy asshat for the record Never ever have i used people in need for my climb to wealth though.

Cheers to that

I swear to god, premier league seems like they can't do anything right. Who's in charge of this mess of an organization? At least here in Spain the culprit for braindead decisions is usually corruption.

 

[robertmac43]

Cheers to that

Personally i think Klopp should pressure the schedulers to make the games 1 or 2 hours earlier in the day.

Great to see Tom Lockyer was discharged from Hospital today.

​

His playing days are probably over though.

 

[robertmac43]

Likely yes, you never know though. My guess is he ends up working with the team in some capacity following his rehabilitation.

Just a good sign he is out and hopefully on the road to recovery.

I laughed way too loud at this

Glad I could bring a chuckle on the Friday before the holidays

United can't stop catching strays.

Sounds like Rodri has injured his knee.

Gallagher is above the 75th percentile in all these aspects:

Progressive passes
Shot-creating actions
Pass volume
Tackles
Interceptions
Successful dribbles
Carry volume
Recoveries

Squawka has him as the #2 best performing Premier League midfielder this season.

Club: Chelsea

Squawka Score: 71%

The Chelsea rebuild under Mauricio Pochettino has hit several stumbling blocks but one man who has kept his head held high is Conor Gallagher. Thrust into a leadership role, the academy product has given Chelsea legs, power and composure through the middle, excelling in almost every aspect you’d want from a central midfielder.

Gareth Southgate will be thinking hard about Gallagher’s place in his plans ahead of Euro 2024.

Imagine selling this player...

I’m imagining Chelsea selling him to Spurs…

I don’t think there is

Easier to focus on bad misses than on invisibility.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Not in order, but the next 9 Spurs opponents are 8th,9th,10th,11th,13th,14th,15th,16th,19th. Good timing to play a very easy schedule as they try to get healthy and lose Son/Sarr/Bissouma for a month.
