Premier League Gameweek 1 + Midweek EFL

[Vidyoyo]

what a goal!

 

[SirAnderson]

Always enjoy seeing "unknown" and new to the PL players do their thing until they figured out later in the season.

From last year:

Deflections
Premier League players will be allowed extra leeway when it comes to ricocheted handballs.

It is often impossible to avoid contact with the ball if it has deflected off the body of an opponent, team-mate, or even another part of the own player.

So a handball will not be awarded if the ball touches a player’s hand/arm directly from their own head/body/foot or the head/body/foot of another player who is close/nearby.

But I'm not sure if it's changed this year.

He wasn't close by and was doing a pretty decent impression of a sign post. Stupid defending, obvious penalty no matter what rules are being applied.

 

[Who's Kissing Cameras?]

Bielsa’s press is incredible to watch.

 

[Massive Spanner]

De Gea would get loads of stick for not saving that.

 

[Drifter]

Both front pressing sides.

 

[diarm]

He's stitched Trent up like a kipper as well.

 

[Verminator]

Looks like the Leeds hairstyle of the day is no longer a mullet.

 

[Guy Incognito]

Leeds defending there....

 

[FootyGirl88]

Leeds look like a headache to play against

 

[Squeaky Bumtime]

Pen for Liverpool, what was that about?

 

[Nou_Camp99]

Leeds will probably do well. He's a top coach even if he's a bit of a nutter.

 

[Zoo]

Both front pressing sides.

Well they are not going to be back pressing

 

[Massive Spanner]

I had no idea Wendy's brother in Ozark played for Leeds.

 

[RK]

This isn't how rules work.

 

[JB08]

I was thinking that. I can see us struggling when we play them.

 

[diarm]

Looks like the Leeds hairstyle of the day is no longer a mullet.

I was just wondering to myself what the castingteam of The Last Kingdom are going to do for extras this year?

 

[12OunceEpilogue]

The Scousers are looking in a bit of discomfort at the back. Teams need to get into those gaps in the channels, test them with some good diagonal balls and see what TAA is made of defensively.

Leeds are doing much better after a ropey start.

 

[Bubz27]

TAA being exposed so far.

 

[Drifter]

This is may turn out to being a high scoring game.

 

[Massive Spanner]

Leeds look really good. Wonder can they sustain this sort of pressure for 90 mins.

 

[RedorDead21]

Leeds will probably do well. He's a top coach even if he's a bit of a nutter.

I live in Leeds, he’s had the whole squad out litter picking plenty of times!

 

[Deery]

Man-to-man is great to watch but one ball will split you open

 

[Jazz]

Leeds look like a headache to play against

Yeah not looking to them playing us...

 

[mu4c_20le]

87 player my arse.

 

[Verminator]

Bebbenburgers and chips for everyone.

 

[Wayne's World]

Liverpool's defending is all over the shop here

 

[C3Pique]

Trent and Gomez is an obvious weakspot in that defence.

 

[Guy Incognito]

Leeds look really good. Wonder can they sustain this sort of pressure for 90 mins.

Something tells me they'll tire out in the second half.

And it's 2-1...

 

[DomesticTadpole]

VVD gets Liverpool another goal. 2-1.

 

[mu4c_20le]

Nice catch

 

[SirAnderson]

Crap. Why am I watching this again?

 

[No Idea For Nickname]

2-1 meh

 

[JB08]

Putting in all that work and conceding like this

 

[duffer]

Number 5 for Leeds playing like a right cock.

 

[Jazz]

2-1 to Pool

 

[Samid]

What the actual feck is that defending?!

 

[mu4c_20le]

Bamford you donkey

 

[dannyrhinos89]

Koch exposed twice.

 

[Idxomer]

Looks like last year's opener against Norwich.
