GWT: EPL - Matchweek 12

[bluesfan94]

Yeah, I know we have an international break first, but it's a Monday morning and I'm procrastinating. As with prior matchweeks following international breaks, title favorites Liverpool play on Sunday, going down south to take on the Saints. The matchweek actually starts with Chelsea heading to Leicester, while Saturday also features a battle for top 4 when Arsenal hosts Nottingham Forest. Then, Manchester City will look to return to winning ways when they host their bogey team, Tottenham, who are fresh off handing Ipswich Town their first win. The matchweek concludes on Monday with Newcastle hosting West Ham.

I have a feeling City is going to get healthy against Spurs

…no Romero

 

[VEGASKING]

City plays Saturday and Sunday? There may be some validity to these scheduling complaints

Rodri was right all along.

I have no idea what you mean

 

[Jussi]

I have no idea what you mean

The conspiracy is real!

 

[robertmac43]

Sounds like Brighton will be without Dunk again. Return likely next week

Jackson!

Hopefully onside as that was incredible stuff from him.

 

[gary69]

Joao Felix with 1st league start for Chelsea this season. Chelsea with relentless pressure to start the match, Leicester have been pinned in their own half.

Jackson deservedly puts Chelsea ahead after 15 mins.

 

[Sad People]

Jackson has been impressive in the games ive seen him in.

 

[Blender]

Shocking that Ndidi only gets a yellow there. That was a blatant red.

 

[Blender]

Jackson has been impressive in the games ive seen him in.

He got off to a rough start last year but he's been great since at least January.

 

[al secord]

I forgot Vardy was playing

 

[gary69]

Jackson with a perfect cross in that situation, but Madueke doesn't score.

 

[gary69]

Madueke blocks Palmer's shot from going in. Chelsea could use a 2nd goal to be on the safer side.

 

[Blender]

Enzo!

Miracle that didn't go 20 feet over the net.

 

[gary69]

Enzo buries the rebound from Jackson's attempt. Jackson on his way to MotM performance.

 

[Jersey Fresh]

Cole Palmer would have gotten that call.

 

[Blender]

Good win.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Overslept, so just watched first half and the key incidents from the second so I can watch the 10am matches live. Leicester looked… dire. Really just dire.

Cole Palmer would have gotten that call.

Like he got the call on a red card challenge that tried to snap his Achilles?

 

[robertmac43]

I miss the consistently-inconsistent version of Chelsea. Starting to feel like they are actually taking a step in the right direction.

Wow, great finish from Saka. Also awesome to see Ode back in the starting 11. The quick 1, 2 in the box was great.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

I would take Saka over any attacking player in the PL, I just love watching him play.....kills me as as a Spurs fan

Not sure about the league but I find him underrated at least in my circle.

 

[al secord]

If Pickford gets up and gets on with it, there's no red card given. Yet he sits on the ground and refuses to get up. Check is made, and once red is given, Pickford pops up on his feet looking like a million bucks. Oh you EPL.
