That’s two hat tricks his last two half’s of football.

United just paid $100m for Antony where City spent $70m for Haaland.

ok, maybe i am not understanding the *potential add-ons.. but according to transfermarkt.. City is a +£18.36m

All those numbers look pretty close to what transfermarkt has.. but the City one looks weird. I mean, they sold Sterling, Jesus, and Zinchenko for about £130m

speaking of nunez, since he is clearly a complete fucking lunatic in the fashion of his predecessor, does frank potentially sacrifice an fb to bait nunez into going all uruguayan this weekend for merseyside?

an interesting thought.  as with all liverpool games across all competitions, there will undoubtedly be some fireworks on the touchline.

It was off, but damn it was close. 

How long has Pickford been rocking the Pat Riley slick-back?

The Leeds choice isn’t terrible, but Chelsea-West Ham is maybe a better game. 

Damn, thought we might get three points there a couple of times in the second half. They played better for a bit of that game for sure. Liverpool still seems sluggish and are struggling to figure out the right personnel. 

that VAR was so disappointing. 

Liverpool averaging a scorching 4.5 goals over their past 2 games.

Where are you getting that? Averaging 1 over last two (2 & 0) and 3.66 over last 3 (9, 2, and 0).

Yeah I couldn't remember if the 9 goal game was midweek or last weekend.

Weekends, too. 

Thoughts on that chelsea call? Seems right at the line.  Mendy really embellished that shit like a South American. 

Yeah, Mendy made the most of it.  

I'd agree that it's a borderline call.

Probably don't kick the goalkeeper in the chest, tho?

there's absolutely nothing there. the contact is minimal, and it did nothing to affect the play. absolute horseshit call. a three point call.

If that happened to Arsenal's keeper and it wasn't called, your head would come off your body and start orbiting the sun as a new, enraged planet.

Oh you mean like the one at the end of the Tottenham game?

he didn't kick the keeper in the chest. not even close. ive seen more violence from a player holding the mascot's hand walking out of the tunnel. soccer is a contact sport, and shit like that makes me ragey. his foot gently carreses mendy's chest and we decide the entire match based on that.

I’m going to assume you’re joking because everyone and their mother on this board knows what I’m talking about.

nope. i've never had an issue with shit like that. not even close. if it's a foul it's a foul, if it's not it's not. i don't care if it benefits my team. that will never affect the way i adjudge a play. that play was nowhere close to foul, and it being called a foul is pathetic. there are *literally* dozens and dozens of plays in every single match, including this one, where there's more contact, where the play is affected, and where nothing is called, rightfully so. for that to even be called a foul is horrible. the fact that it decided the match is criminal.

do you have a link or not, i did not watch the fucking tottenham game.

I didn't think there was much there. But if I thought we had actually deserved 3 on the day I might feel differently. 

Yeah, I didn't think Chelsea would get it at first.  But replay clearly showed the boot connecting with Mendy's chest.  Some refs are gonna give that and some aren't.  It's pretty fucking far from the worst call we'll see all season.

I mean, we recently had a guy thrown to the ground by his hair and it wasn't called, and that cost us two points.  So, we're even.  And Tottenham is still owed a fucking.

I don’t know if I have just been watching too much Austin fc or something but these city third kits look pretty cool to me. Generally prefer subtle and clean but these look slick.

There wasn't much in it at all. It wasn't clear. It wasn't obvious. VAR has been pretty useless.

i love soccer with a passion, but this type of inconsistent, indefensible officiating is one of the few things that makes me rage against the machine. i cannot reconcile what i've seen consistently over the years, with this chelsea call being the latest example: i watch guys like Giroud, Lukaku, and and Carroll just get bludgeoned to death in the box on corner after corner, and not only does nothing ever get called, these guys don't even complain because they already know it'll never get called. then some shit like this happens, where mendy receives a light, feathery caress from an opposing player and it gets called a foul on VAR review and literally decides the match. it's madness.

Great goal for Villa, can’t say it’s deserved but that was a rocket of a goal.

On that Chelsea-West Ham call, it just shows how lame the protection of keepers is. That call is made way too often when keepers are breathed on.

Agree it’s far from the worst call ever seen.  

WTF Villa not gonna even try to score? 

man, just got home to see Bailey's goal. beautiful.

Well MANARS gonna be big

tomorrow morning is where the fairytale start to the season is supposed to end. it's man u, it's on the road, we have a ton of injuries, i mean everything points towards a 2-1 or even 2-0 man u victory. BUT, lest ye think this is some sort of pre-excuse for an Arsenal loss, i want to go on record as saying that i still believe, and that it's anyone's game tomorrow, barring the two referees from manchester taking over.

if players like Sambi Lokonga or Fabio Vieira have to start then so be it. we are in a better position than Man U in terms of cohesiveness and momentum, we have an tactical advantage at manager, but more than anything, we have Gabriel Jesus. for the first time since RvP's last season, we have a guy who is a legit threat to score any time he touches the ball in the final third. i'm really looking forward to seeing how we perform tomorrow, and using it as a measuring stick for where we are when dealing with injuries.

He also doesn’t understand how a live table works, apparently. 

found out by reading those reddit comments that this VAR official is the same guy who overturned this 3-point goal in his first ever VAR decision:

EPL officiating is somehow even worse than college basketball officiating.
