Really surprised you went for him after Walcott, don't think he'll hit the ground running. Richarlison on the other hand
Premier League Gameweek 1 (9th, 10th, 11th August)
- Thread starter esmufc07
- Start date
I rate both players. I can see both of them making a step up. For £50m odd combined pretty low risk but potential high reward.
Another goal for Ashley Barnes for Burnley against Southampton. 2-0.
Weird Feelings of Football material
Every other season, Watford are managed by a good-looking, dark haired, suave Mediterrenean manager who plays attacking swashbuckling football. This always starts brilliantly and the manager starts getting linked to big jobs before suddenly it turns to shite and they start haemorrhaging goals in his second season, eventually he gets sacked. They then hire a clone and the cycle repeats.

This is true
Another goal for Brighton. Maupay. 0-3.
fecking hell brighton, you're meant to be getting relegated this season!
What a magic start for Potter at Brighton
Need Kane and Walker Peters to come up clutch for me.
Burnley now three ahead. Gudmundsson. 3-0.
Red card Morgan.
Morgan Schneiderlin sent off. Everton down to ten men.
Their finances are not unlimited. They have spent a lot to get here and might have gotten away with it, but we are technically capable of rivaling any spending they do. We beat them to Sanchez, Fred, Maguire, and Pogba if I am not mistaken.
Now they cannot get away with it, but they are in a very good place to be.
Schneiderlin was so impressive at Southampton.
There’s not many players I can think of who just turned to absolute shit after a move (to United).

I’ve got Kane in mine. Also have a Watford defender and Ben Foster which has backfired massively.
Red card for Schneiderlin, Everton down to 10 men. His first yellow was for punching the ball away in frustration.
I thought he left Everton
forgettable playerYou get a yellow for punching the ground now? WTF.
O'Silva waiting too long to bring on our boy moise, now stupid morgan gets sent off...ffs
Also i really need to catch an everton game in the company of a woman, need to test a theory about andre gomes

Why are people losing their shit already when only 12 teams have played their first game of the season??
I don't get it.
I don't get it.
I’m pissed off about that. He’s been silly with that second challenge but the first yellow he got wasn’t a foul - he got the ball.
We deserve to lose this though. Loads of possession and controlling the game but letting Palace get away with it and left ourselves on the back foot. Idiots.

Such a stupid red card. First yellow for overreacting after making a clear foul and the second yellow for a late challenge at the midway line. No brain.
I think it'll just end right when Pep leaves, which won't be too far from now. They've had 2 terrific seasons but still haven't won the CL. They'll still be a top side, but they won't be dominant just like they weren't in the years before he took over.
Everton have been left opened few times and the amount fouls were made for being late on the tackles and Gana was able to pass the ball quicker when retrieving the ball.
I think he got the yellow for his outburst, which I didn't think deserved it (he was angry and smacked the ground - didn't do anything else, nothing really wrong with that in my opinion).
Gbamin has been very poor since he has been subbed on.
BT Sport script predicted Brighton to beat Watford 4-0

Disapponted in Everton here. And Southampton - that is a filthy result for them.
Yeah, forgot about that but he wouldn’t have needed to do that if Moss wasn’t an idiot.
I think he’s been okay. Couple of loose passes but he’s barely had a preseason with us and he’s been thrust into a PL game a bit early on due to an injury so don’t blame his rustiness. He’s been positive with what he wants to do though which is promising.
Palace is crap. Player more, but still look very inferior.
I’ve had an absolute nightmare on my accumulator, I fancied Watford and Southampton to both win. Fingers crossed for a couple of late turnarouns.
Sheff Utd equalize!
Yeah in fairness you have a good point.
Ake with a defensive mistake.
Great to see the reaction from Sheffield fans after their first goal back
Yay Sheffield
Great result for Burnley! They spent the princely sum of £8.5m this summer.
Good old Everton.
Love it
