Yeah, it's been fun but the lack of composure and tactical discipline wore me down and I got bored.
Premier League Gameweek 1
- Thread starter top1whoisman
- Start date
-
In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
It feels like every year we feel things are going to be more competitive. But again for top four I reckon it’ll be United, Liverpool and Newcastle with Chelsea probably struggling for cohesion and Spurs being, well, Spurs.
Draw is a fair result. I doubt either side will get top four.
Chelsea edged it and should've won. Think they'll do better than expected, specially when they're looking to add more players. Liverpool not impressive at all.
Rashford can finish, he scored 30 goals last season, and the two seasons before his bad season 20 each. Also, his decision making may not be perfect, but he's not a stupid footballer. Stupid take.
New season, same mentally unhinged Klopp. Chest-beating clown.
Enzo Fernandez is, unfortunately, brilliant.
If Pochettino can find the right midfield partner for him, he'll dominate the entire league.

Always liked him, but I like him more and more the older he gets. Unbelievable player.
Chelsea shouldve won it
One game perfectly exemplifies the problems both sides have
Great result. Please can we not feck it vs Wolves at home.
He plays like how we all wanted Pogba to play like
Jackson will prove to be a really good buy - guy went pace and power vs VVD and Konate all game
Depends on what the expectation is. Usually after a dreadful season like theirs, everything decent is seen as a plus. But given the absurd spending over the past two years I wonder if their fans expect top 4 or it’s seen as an achievement.
Pogba did play that way, sometimes. It was just people wanted Pogba to play like that and like some sort of no.10 maestro.
Nunez is some flop. Never gets called out in the media.
We unleash the Doak(!) and our shit players decide to not make one single pass to him. Feckers.
Liverpool need 2 midfielders and at least 1 defender. That midfield will see them struggling all season. Nunez is such a donkey, he'll not score many goals.
Chelsea need a few attacking players with brains. Too many speed merchants who don't know how to use the ball.

Points dropped for Chelsea imo. Think they were far better than Liverpool but just couldn't get the goals to kill it off. Already obvious they're a much better side than last season. What I saw from Liverpool reaffirmed what I already thought, they're being majorly overrated this season and still have areas in defence and midfield they need to address. Hoping we beat Wolves convincingly tomorrow. Enjoyable opening weekend games
No arsenal?
Ben Goat!
Two sides happy with the draw and a bit of a snooze fest for the majority of that 2nd half with the only interesting apart was Salah getting subbed off and struggling to get the tape off his wrists. Not counting the penalty shoot out wins how many draws between these two in the last 3 or 4 years now?
Good result for us, even if it is gameweek 1.
It's almost as if they have someone lined up for that role...
Ben Gannon Doak (born 11 November 2005) is a Scottish professional footballer who plays as a winger for Premier League club Liverpool.
I see them competing for the title
Ben Dope
Szoboszlai, like every other player that come from abroad, should be given time, but it feels inevitable. There is just nothing about him that says he is going to play a huge role for Liverpool or a game changer of any kind. Premier League is just a completely different league than Bundesliga.
They're going for a CL spot definitely, considering you have City, United, Arsenal, Liverpool, and Newcastle all fighting for it, it's going to be an achievement finishing above any of those teams after the horror of last season. Looking at both teams today, I feel like Chelsea could end up above Liverpool if they sort out their issues.
Feels like both teams haven't overcome their problems from last season yet. Chelsea still not good at finishing chances, Liverpool still has no working midfield.
He doesn’t need to find anyone - the club already has. Enzo mand Caicedo has some potential as a midfield duo. I’d love for us to have one future CM star let alone two.
Ben Soap.
Chelsea really needs Reece-James to stay healthy, the quality drop when Malo Gusto replaced him was massive. That makes getting Caicedo a lot more important.
Gallagher surprised me he had a great game.
Liverpool definitely needs a DM.

No, people just wanted Pogba to play that way more than "sometimes." The problem was always that he delivered every five games or so and was useless the rest of the time.
Two weak teams.
Ben Spoke
Two teams that start the new season pretty much as they were the last one.
Scouse have no defensive cover, which makes their poor back 4 look even worse than they actually are, and chelsea are a bunch of strangers of varying levels of quality trying to play together.
Not sure what pool can do, but I expect chelsea to get better as the season progresses. They need a striker as badly as we did though.

Why would the media criticize one of their own club's players
That’s a throwback! Not sure what World Cup he played in but he was rapid
