You can't stop singing about us - OTT 41 [R]

To be fair, two reasonably good teams. There will hopefully be some football played. I'd rather watch those two play than, say, Man U v Brighton (although a defeat for the former would be enjoyable!)

 

Game has been pretty entertaining so far...

 

Me too. Annoying.

 

It blows my mind that with such a historic start we've had to this season even teams that were "struggling" at some points are still so close. The strength in this league, or the disparity between the "haves" and "have nots" is wild.

 

I have never thought it was a two horse race. It’s only been 11 matches so far and there are plenty of slips ‘twixt lip and cup.

I do think if Chelsea had not had the transfer ban imposed, it would have gone and brought in a load of high profile names and unlikely to be in that position. Leicester needed somebody to make better use of the players it had rather than adhere to a rigid philosophy. And Rodgers is fantastic at that.

Spurs will finally get its rhythm back I’m sure but by golly it’s making hard work of it.

 

By the way, West Ham has some fantastic players, (as an alternative to Southampton.) They just happen to be putting in some underwhelming performances. Some bargains to be had there surely?

 

• That was almost perfect jinx-- what is it with VAR and dodgy geometry??
  

 

That was another good line from the comms. Arsenal should get BR as manager.
Like that was something desirable.

 

I think we're in a more than a two horse race-- Chelsea and Leicester are there on merit even though it's only the 12th game of the season. Leicester has the advantage of not having a fixtures pile-up because of European matches. We need to keep up our performances.

I bet a bunch of Chelsea fans are hoping the transfer ban stays as the youngsters who are coming through look quite decent. James, Gilmour, Timori, Mount, (possibly Zouma) and Abraham would never have been in consideration at all had that ban not been imposed.

 

Rumours are that Ederson, David Silva and Rodri are fit to play. Klopp said he didn't believe the injury news that a while ago, didn't he?

By the way, can it be 4:30pm already, please? The incessant cliche-laden build up on radio and TV is mentally draining.

 

Harry Maguire is already wearing the armband for the Scum? That was quick

 

NHL game was in Sweden.
