GWT: Premier League Round 2

[hatterson]

Did anyone see what Vardy did to earn his red?

Saw the replays. Went through a tackle way, way too hard. Seemed like instead of going through the ball, he was trying to go through the defenders shins on a route that happened to touch the ball first.

Fairly well earned excessive force type red.

West Ham

 

[Il Mediano]

Does he not realize who the first English team he managed was?

Haha seriously. Not only that, but Mourinho questioning anyone's class is just too funny.

He's done some of the most classless shit I've ever seen.

Mourhino must buy in to old Eric Bischoff adage of controversy creates cash.

Who he also kinda looks like.

 

[Il Mediano]

I’m really excited for Hazard and Kovacic to come on. Especially Hazard who I have on my fantasy team.

Yeah, if Chelsea becomes anything like Napoli (I believe they will) , Hazard is going to absolutely explode. He's a much better player than Insigne, imo. If Sarri gets tired of Morata, then perhaps he'll play Hazard in the false 9 , similar to what he did with Mertens (who Sarri made look like an elite player, imo).

He made Napoli a force to be reckoned with, and now he has much better players to mould. If Chelsea stays patient with him, they're gunna be outstanding. I'm not sure a lot of Prem fans know exactly how good Sarri is. He's brilliant.

Smart play having him on your fantasy team, imo.

Should be a cracking game. Despite the score I didn’t think Arsenal looked terrible last week.

Pedro!

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Arsenal might finish bottom half

Oof Arsenal

They were pretty bad.

I do love how fluid Sarri has Chelsea playing compared with the pretty rigid style Conte had. Much more movement on the pitch so far.

 

[KJS14]

Why are we still trying to have Petr Cech play it out of the back? We're constantly giving up possession in our own half.

They were pretty bad.

Bad enough they might have thought about tinkering with the lineup...

Great play by Chelsea there, too bad Arsenal didn't manage to put that one in a minute eariler but that's how it goes

Wait till 6 months from now. This is nothing.

they're gunna carve defenses alive.

 

[KJS14]

Also Arsenal's backline have gotten beat by 2 Chelsea players running straight over the top about 3-4 times now.

 

[Chimaera]

The days of Bellerin being linked with Barca are long gone.

Like, we all know Arsenal have their problems, but on the other hand - you try starting against the last two league champs

It crazy that at least twice in this game they have gotten in behind Bellerin. I thought he would be the strongest one in the back line but currently looks like the weakest.

Oh I know it's early, it's still good to see.

Just like last week, you can already see Arsenal is just completely losing Kante when he's making runs as well. I expect him to have his best offensive season ever playing a more forward position with Jorginho behind him.

 

[Il Mediano]

lol @ Arsenal fans who thought/think they'd finish above Chelsea.

Give me mercy.

 

[Blender]

Luiz still the weak spot while defending.

 

[KJS14]

What was that...

 

[hersky77]

Lol auba

 

[Il Mediano]

offside and a terrible miss.

Morata!
