NFT: Premier League: They're Back!

Gene : 8/9/2019 2:50 pm
Liverpool host Norwich City at Anfield with kickoff in about 10 minutes.

Can Liverpool catch Manchester City?

Can anyone catch Manchester City?

How will Pulisic fare in the PL with Chelsea?

I think it's a given MCFC & Liverpool will finish in the top 4, but who will grab the other 2 Euro spots?

Can Everton, Leicester City or any other club make any of the Top 6 sweat this season?

I don't know where we're going, but we're on our way!
My first season as a fan because of Christian Pulisic.

Fellow Croatian. Looking forward to it. Go Chelsea! Tuning in to Liverpool-Norwich City now.
Ugh.

A 7' own goal (Hanley) puts Liverpool up 1-0.
So basically only 4 teams have a chance of winning

European soccer has to do something where only a few clubs can win the league. There has to be a balance between MLS with parity and foreign soccer with only a few teams having a chance.
Salah doubles the lead in the 19'.

2-0 Liverpool
Mo Salah

The Egyptian King
Van Dijk makes it 3-0

with a header off a corner. Rout is on, but oddly enough Norwich hasn't looked all that bad. If they were better at finishing they could've had a couple themselves.

Ha, no. I don't I play fantasy baseball and football but my mind reels at how fantasy premier league would even work.

LOL,I had to ask, because the team I'm playing this afternoon goes by the name of Heisenberg. Go figure.
Alisson is force to leave the nets due to injury in the 39'

and Origi bangs home a fourth 3 minutes later.

Pukki pulls one back in the 64' to make it 4-1 thus angering fantasy players world wide a clean sheet points go down the drain.
Liverpool open their season with a 4-1 win.

Let's see what kind of show City puts on tommorow morning vs West Ham.
Doesn't look good for Alisson.

Jurgen Klopp:
Quote:
“With Alisson it is not good but we will find a solution and move on. He felt his calf. He looked behind him because he thought something hit him.

“But Adrian is a good goalie. In possession he is calm and he is good at shot-stopping, that’s why we signed him. It’s good for him but we have a little problem with Ali.”
I am so psyched

Flying to London next week for vacation, and scored tickets to the Chelsea home opener on August 18 vs Leicester in what will be Pulisic's first home match. Cannot wait!!

Sounds like a good time. Enjoy!

Man City vs West Ham kicks off today's action on NBCSN right now.

Later on NBCSN Bournemouth vs Sheffield United airs at 10:00 AM and at 12:30 PM Spurs vs Aston Villa airs on NBC Universo.
City lead 1-0 at the half thanks  
Gene : 8/10/2019 8:26 am : link
to a 25' goal by Gabriel Jesus. It's been a very pedestrian 45 minutes.

P.S. The Spurs vs Aston Villa match is also on NBC4 at 12:30.
City explodes  
Gene : 8/10/2019 9:28 am : link
for 4 second half goals and bury WHU 5-0.

VAR rears it's ugly head 3 times during the second half to micro-manage the match. Ridiculous.
I was always under the impression  
giantBCP : 8/10/2019 9:51 am : link
that the offside line was projected from the rear most point of the defender, which would have been his elbow or his arm, and not his armpit.
