- Start date
Love it when most of the games are on a Saturday.
Same..especially ours
Yeah, it's nice when most of the games are on a Saturday. Don't mind if there's one Monday match if it's good. Can watch football on a workday then.
It's not nice when six of them are at the same time.
Perfect schedule:
Friday 20:00
Saturday 12:30, 15:00, 17:30
Sunday 12:00, 14:00, 16:00
Monday 20:00
Only three games on Saturday at 15:00 this way.

Some cracking matches today. Think Watford will get something from the Arsenal match. They've a solid team.
Be tough choosing a 3pm game from that list. Leaning towards Chelsea v Burnley at this stage...
There is already a thread. Mods should do something. The lack of creativity from Chelsea might be an issue against Burnley. They need an early goal.
This thread is much cleaner.
If we start with Fabregas we should be fine.
Yeah. You guys need someone that can pick a pass down the channels. Matic and Kante is overkill for this kind of game, imo.
2 threads on this.
Great line-up of football today. Shame the Arsenal/Everton game isn't the 1pm kick off tomorrow.
Bank Holiday weekend, some great fixtures coming up...I feel like getting on the beers early today 
Didn't notice that it was West Brom/Middlesbrough. Yuck.
Who is the lady on Sky? Nice leggy brunette.

Vorm, Walker, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Rose; Dier, Wanyama, Eriksen, Alli, Lamela; Kane (c)
Subs: McGee, Carter-Vickers, Davies, Onomah, Winks, Janssen, Son
Mignolet, Clyne, Matip, Lovren, Milner, Henderson, Wijnaldum, Lallana, Mane, Coutinho, Firmino
Subs: Manninger, Grujic, Moreno, Lucas, Sturridge, Origi, Stewart
Sturridge dropped. I have a feeling Sturridge and Klopp aren't keen on each other. There was a lot of talk about them last season. This season hasn't started well for them either.
That Liverpool midfield and defence is there to be smashed. Kane and co will opt for it or not is to be seen. Milner as LB ? Henderson - Wijnaldum - Lallana as midfield 3 ? If they continue to put up this team, they are going to concede 76+ goals this season.
Wait, Milner is actually Liverpool's first choice left back?
I thought it was just an experiment for times when Moreno is not avaliable or when they need a backup.Also the Henderson-Wijnaldum midfield might be the least exciting midfield in the league. Pure mediocrity.
Why is Klopp the only person that doesn't think the Milner LB experiment is bizarre?
EDIT: Also the fact that they're playing two CM's with one at LB and no striker.

Isn't the alternative, Moreno? I'd take Milner every time over that sack of shit. Hell, I'd even consider playing with 10 menWhy is Klopp the only person that doesn't think the Milner LB experiment is bizarre?

I'd think the alternative is to find someone better than both which isn't hard.Isn't the alternative, Moreno? I'd take Milner every time over that sack of shit. Hell, I'd even consider playing with 10 men
But...but...that goal he scored last year!!!Isn't the alternative, Moreno? I'd take Milner every time over that sack of shit. Hell, I'd even consider playing with 10 men
Our midfield is going to struggle in my opinion.
Holy smokes, the Liverpool back 4 plus midfield is a like a sieve.
Lucky for them Poch's Spurs take a while to get moving in usually.

Why is Lucas on the bench when Henderson is not a DM. Is he not fully match-fit?
Who's missing for Liverpool? Just Can? Cause my word does their team look shit.
Nevermind. Olivia Wayne.
You're finished as a LB if, Milner is getting games there ahead of you.
Spurs being slow starters might be what saves Liverpool today. Awful team on paper.

That is a terrible looking Liverpool team, on paper at least.
I'm not sure, I would have played him in this one. It would have been Can but he injured himself against Burton.
Ragnar of the Klavan dropped from the squad due to his showing against Burnley?
Wanyama and Dier against Henderson, Wijnaldum, and Lallana. Talk about a clash of midfield titans.
Would rather have Spurs' anyday. Not fancy but Dier and Wanyama will do their jobs.

Spurs are going to beat us today. Milner at LB can't end well.
Wouldn't it be better with Clyne as left back and Milner right back?
Wijnaldum - Lallana - Henderson midfield again?
