good day for Liverpool i would say

Yeah it is tough to watch. The announcer before the match called it... there is no way to predict these teams.

Hope all is well with the young family .... I’m on the search for the top PNW winter beers... cheers

Yeah, I'm kind of at the "I'd like to watch, but I also have housework to do so,l..." stage. This team is capable of so much more and it's just not coming together. The inconsistency is the killer. Beginning of the season, 7 people in our starting XI hurt? Yeah you're gonna get shaky results. I get it. But to get in and manhandle Arsenal for 75 minutes and punch with city thee way we did and then come out like this against United and Newcastle? It's not good enough.

Likewise out there man - stay warm!

More like stay dry. We have been getting dumped on with rain. Low level areas are getting flooded out like crazy

At Palace usually seems to be tough (except the 7-0 in 2020), though there is a chance they are top of the league after this week with Arsenal going to Villa. Then it is United and Arsenal at home. Alisson should be back for those games. Then at Burnley and home Newcastle before a 3 week break in the league. If they can win 4 of those games that would be wonderful. City is not the same team. Don't see them getting 90+ points.

Is this the first year of this Copa America format?

Notice the cutoff was West Ham?

Notice he's saying the 9th best team in the PL is every bit as good as the best in Serie A?

 

[Striiker]

Well if he says it then it must be true

Would be awesome for the US and CONCACAF if they keep letting them play in the Copa. Something like the UEFA Euros for us USMNT fans.

CONCACAF teams are almost always invited. The US declined several invitations because the tournament happens during the MLS season, but I suspect they'll participate more frequently going forward.

All 3 2026 World Cup hosts were tracking to be there in 2024, but Canada is imploding on and off the field and has to try and qualify through a one game playoff vs Trinidad and Tobago.

Lads, it's Tottenham.

Liverpool got a bit lucky today though 3 points is 3 points.

Looking at the scoreline, Bayern is getting hammered.

 

[Jack Straw]

Frankfurt up 5-1!

 

[Jack Straw]

Villa are damn good.

 

[BigToe]

Villa are damn good.

They’re so vulnerable though

 

[Halladay]

Villa are damn good.

At home they are.

 

[BigToe]

I’m so tired

 

[Striiker]

I’m going to explode

 

[Halladay]

Good ebening.

I’m going to explode

*we all celebrate*

 

[Jack Straw]

Go outside so that you don’t make a mess in the house.

[Starat327]

Go outside so that you don’t make a mess in the house.

Respect.

 

[Halladay]

That's 15 league home wins in a row for Villa.

 

[Halladay]

We all know Chelsea is crap when they make United look competent. Chelsea is terrible .

This aged well.
