PL Matchweek 10

Why though?

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Re off topic- Probably bc all the mods got fired.

That can't be true? If so wow that's terrible. I guess that's what we get for being children.

I figured LITN just got tired of modding and step down.

 

[Evilo]

What's going on?

For what it's worth, it has nothing to do with the soccer board.

I second this.

Interesting is just the soccer board and why? If this can't be discussed pm? I'm genuinely interest as this might ruin the soccer talk that goes on here.

 

[Live in the Now]

I didn't get tired of modding and it definitely has nothing to do with this board. Someone else will do it.

What screwed Arsenal today was the bench's depth. Xhaka at LB is awful enough, but nobody could've played in that situation. Nobody besides El Neny to close down the game? Shambolic.

Agreed, but it's not a horrible situation to be in - not long ago it was Liverpool and before them City whose main problem was depth, now look at them. If we can move forward on that issue we could be in a good spot. Not that I'm getting my hopes up, Palace was all over us for large parts of that game as well and I wouldn't argue against the draw kind of being a fair result, though it hurts to have both goals against come from penalties.

So Wembley's lawn looks nice today before the Spurs - City game.

 

[Jussi]

I second this.

Same here, I'd like to know what's going on.

I got the idea that each mod has a lifespan here. You were a beast mod though LITN and everyone else who's conducted this board.

Both penalties were deserved so I am not going to whine about that, agreed with everything else though. Arsenal's star players were able to battle back and draw the match, CP probably deserved a better fate.

How many players hurt today on the shitty pitch at Wembley?

 

[hatterson]

On the bright side, offside might be easier to see

 

[spintheblackcircle]

And I'm tuning out

 

[hatterson]

That was some brutal defending by Trippier there. Both on the header and then getting beat hard by Sterling.

 

[YNWA14]

Mahrez really seems to be coming into his own with City.

 

[hatterson]

Mahrez really seems to be coming into his own with City.

I think he's likely playing above his head right now, but it's also not like he was a reclamation project. He was very good at Leicester when surrounded by far less talent than at City.

 

[Halladay]

Should have bet on City -.5.

 

[YNWA14]

Eh...I wasn't meaning it like that. He's looked like their best player (even in the Liverpool game) for a bit now. I always thought he was fantastic at Leicester (which is why I was excited about the link to him coming to Liverpool) and now under the tutelage of Pep he's looking like he might even be stepping up a level. Not sure he'll surpass his form from the Leicester miracle run but he could.

 

[hatterson]

Kyle Walker is starting really well lol.

 

[YNWA14]

Very good save from Lloris on Mahrez there. Great work from David Silva as well.

Yea I thought that was post first and then Lloris on the rebound, but the replay showed it was sneaking in the near side before he got his hand to it.

 

[YNWA14]

Wow...what a terrible touch from Kane. Should have been an easy 1 on 1.

 

[Prntscrn]

fkn NFL. Keep that stuff out of Europe please.

 

[hatterson]

Good call on the dive there.
