Napoli are surprisingly good for a team that lost several key players in the summer. Still unbeaten in the league too.

It's all making sense now. Boehly is playing 8D chess.

Getting beat up by a famers league team. I bet against Liverpool though. Whenever I see James Milner who is nearly 37 starting, I always put money on the other team.

So I have only been following the European soccer, specifically the PL, for like 8 years so I still consider myself a newbie. Chelsea just hired Potter from Brighton. I guess you can poach another team's coach whenever you want? Obviously this is a huge move for him, but has this ever happened in American sports during a season? It's even rare for it to happen during the off season let alone a month into a new season. Brighton has started off so well too, I feel bad for them.

He had a release clause in his contract.

Most managers have release clauses similar to players. Chelsea paid out Potters contract, rumored to be in the 16M range.

So Milik scored a goal today to put Juve ahead in stoppage time and took his shirt off to celebrate. He was already on a yellow so he got sent off.

Goal was called back by VAR.
