GWT: EPL - Matchweek 10

[Savant]

No Rodri

And he’s not coming back anytime soon

Need to create more distance before January when City inevitably buy Zubimendi

 

[Epictetus]

Up to them to fix in January. Nothing else to say about it.

Either way doesn’t change Brighton is flying right now

It was quite clear, IMO, FSG are just very cheap owner.

Highly doubt they buy anyone at this point. But if they did, who do they target? Not much going on in the LB position. The Bournemouth kid maybe? Wolves LB?

 

[Epictetus]

Also vintage Salah goal. Good to see he can still strike the ball lol.

That’s why you pay Edwards and Hughes the big bucks. They need to figure that out. It depends on what they want from that position though. I honestly wouldn’t hate a guy that could CB/LB cover. Maybe you go to Holland for Slot’s old friend Hancko. Maybe you go Ajax for Hato. Those Dutch teams will put up a lot less resistance to a January move compared to the bigger European leagues.

I’ve said it before, you have to look at the window that Arsenal had in January 2023, especially considering the way this summer went. They need the three players they should have gotten in the summer. They need the cover defender, they need a midfielder that can cover ground, and they are going to need another forward if Chiesa is crocked

I tell you one thing though, I’d be keeping a very close eye on the Alphonso Davies/Madrid situation for the summer. Might be a foregone conclusion that he goes there, but that’s he’s going to be out of contract and there’s no reason to at least kick those tires.

Also vintage Salah goal. Good to see he can still strike the ball lol.

He had a big drought doing that, and has done it twice this season. This is a very good sign

City without their best player, Arsenal already 7 points back.

What a choke job this will be if Liverpool doesn't win the title.

 

[Savant]

Next week is going to be huge.

City @ Brighton
Villa @ Liverpool
Arsenal @ Chelsea

This could all shift around again

 

[hatterson]

Uh oh, now we get complaints about how referees hold the whistle for other teams (even though it changed nothing)

 

[gary69]

Nice one-two between Vardy and Ayew for late added time equalizer for Leicester.

Unlucky for Everton's Beto that he hit the bar then Southampton score immediately afterwards and then Beto had a goal disallowed for slight offside.

Loved Soton's Armstrong movement in their goal, you couldn't even see him in the TV picture when the pass into box was made and suddendly when everyone else is static ballwatching, Armstrong appears from far away to meet the ball and shoot it home instead of waiting for it to arrive.

With today's results the bottom of the table got more tighter.

Bald Dutch manager replacing Jurgen Klopp coming into the Premier League saying I don't need any signings and winning it his first year would certainly be something.

 

[Epictetus]

Also the referee (who I have never heard of, seen before, and still don't know) was very good in the Liverpool-Brighton game.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Also the referee (who I have never heard of, seen before, and still don't know) was very good in the Liverpool-Brighton game.

Just looked him up - name is Tony Harrington, today was only his 25th PL game (he's done 191 in the Championship). I also thought he was really good.

Hato would be my target but if LFC had ambition they would throw tons of money for Alphonso Davies or Nuno Mendes

I thought the ref in the Arsenal game was good too
