December 28, 20204 yr As an Everton fan, I'd say this is clearly a break for us with all our injuries. Everton has vastly improved in the last year since Carlo took over, but we still don't have the depth of a Man City type club.
December 28, 20204 yr Barnes is really playing well. Nice goal Edited December 28, 20204 yr by midtown
December 28, 20204 yr Leicester scouting and development is fantastic. damn, they turn out some quality players.

December 28, 20204 yr 3 minutes ago, Jive Turkey said: no Werner or Havertz in the starting 11 today for Chelsea. Havertz already lost his spot. Werner is probably being "rested" even though he got pulled after 45' on Saturday. Guessing we see Werner subbed in in the 2nd half.
December 28, 20204 yr That was a pretty buildup for Chelski ... 1-nil to the worst-sponsor-logo-kit in the League.

December 28, 20204 yr 2 minutes ago, SimonBolivar said: Slammed at work and missing it. What's your overall impression so far? Back and forth ... maybe a 60-40 possession advantage to Chelsea. Both teams had chances in the first half - but Chelsea led 1-nil at the half (fair result). Villa's not had many chances here (20 minutes into the second half), but took PERFECT advantage of what they did have. Chelsea will probably be the primary attacker for the rest of this half. Chelski just netted one, but clearly offside, so it remains 1-1. And honestly, Villa will be thrilled with a 1-1 result at this point.
December 28, 20204 yr Martinez has been busy this match. Clearly missing Mings, but holding on. Just need another 20 minutes, and I'll take this result.
December 28, 20204 yr Havertz and Werner on for Chelsea. 20 minutes left. should be action-packed. this match is not lacking in chances.
December 28, 20204 yr Just to show how tight the top half of the table is ... BEFORE this match: 5. Spurs (26pts, +11GD) 6. ManUtd (26, +9) 7. Villa (25, +14) 8. Chelsea (25, +13) AFTER this match: 5. Villa (26, +14) 6. Chelsea (26, +13) 7. Spurs (26, +11) 8. ManUtd (26, +9) Edited December 28, 20204 yr by RamjetFDO

Werner needed to come on so he could send a chance 3 yards over the crossbar. We can't have him getting rusty. Havertz showed some quality. I think he still gave 2 balls away in about 5 minutes but what are you going to do?
December 28, 20204 yr Author Not sure why CHO has been buried the last season+. He was y’all’s best player the last two games.

December 29, 20204 yr Leeds dropping 5 on West Brom while Liverpool can only score one and then get equalized on to draw them at Anfield in front of 2,000 fans. F'ing 2020, man.

I agree tho, he and Pulisic need to be our wingers until Werner gets his shit together. Granted that could change with Ziyech returns from injury.
December 29, 20204 yr Well, I guess everyone will get a chance to heal up and try to avoid the Covis.

December 29, 20204 yr Fergie time! I can't believe they didn't cut to him; they showed him in the stands earlier.
December 29, 20204 yr Wolves switched off for a split second and let Rashford behind them. What did they expect?

December 30, 20204 yr Leeds : GF 30 / GA 30 60 goals have been scored in 16 Leeds matches this season (averaging almost 4 goals a game) - it's a fun watch!
December 30, 20204 yr Got to admire Che - he just kinda brushed it off and kept on in the match. Unlike some PL players who go down writing in pain when they get breathed on.He was concussed, had no clue what he was doing.

December 30, 20204 yr soccer players are pretty much essential workers given their importance to the mental health and well-being of people in the UK. take a 2 week break and get them started on the vaccines. a multi-week winter break should already be built into the Premier League like all the other European leagues. this might be the beginning of a yearly break.
