Piss poor from Liverpool.

Coutinho is pressing too hard to score. Milner was horrid, a yellow minutes into the game, at least 4 terrible corners, several opportunities in front of goal squandered.

Mignelot at fault for the goal.

Again, it doesn't look like Rodgers has the team sorted.

What up Son!

Solid game from Spurs against a hot Crystal Palace team. Deserved the win, but could have easily been 1-1. Son and Alli played their hearts out, if they can play like that most of the time they should take pressure off of Kane. More likely, there will be games like this and games where nothing works. Lamela was a shit show, sell him over Christmas. Please. Lloris played extremely well, and it was good to get Ericksen back. Hopefully they can beat Arsenal in the League cup this week.

Can't believe none of my fellow Spurs fans have even commented on the 4-1 victory against City. Sure, a couple of the goals were suspect and City are a team that's struggling, but that's the best win of the young season right there. Really encouraged by the last couple of games, but not getting crazy about it. This is Spurs after all.

Yes, Dier has impressed this year. I wonder if they do know what they're doing over there. the emergence of Son and return of Eriksen have all helped the team. I really hope they keep Bentaleb on the bench, he's fucking useless.

I'm really disappointed Klopp is going to end up at Liverpool.

Great signing, obviously. Not a great time for Spurs to play 'Pool, the Liverpool players will be anxious to prove themselves to the new manager.

Liverpool fans, was Rodgers really that bad of a manager or was it unrealistic expectations? It was inevitable they'd do worse once they lost Suarez. I always liked the guy.

Ghost town in here, what the fuck is going on?

Spurs have been playing well and Kane looks to have regained his finishing touch just in time for Arsenal. Really looking forward to the game this week. It's not like Arsenal are a great team, but there don't appear to be any great teams in the league this year so they have a legit shot at the title.

Chelsea's collapse has been hilarious to watch, worst start to a champion's season ever. Mourinho keeps looking worse and worse every time he opens his mouth.

It will be so goddamned hilarious if both Newcastle and Sunderland get relegated this season.

They're the only team other than Chelsea that are the finished product. 2 of City's most important roles are filled by newcomers, Aguero is made of sugar glass and United are still in transition, and likely will be until 18/19. They're winning fuck all with LVG in charge and it'll take at least a season for the new manager to get his team together.

Honestly if Arsenal don't win it this year Wenger should step aside. They won't get a better look.

I don't think I've ever seen a group of players quit on a manager so hard before. Actually I have. Last year with Dortmund and Klopp. That's what happens with SUPER INTENSE managers. that shit only lasts 3-4 years before your players get sick of you.

Fergie had that shit down to a science.

wins back to back titles and a double 92-94. Gets rid of Hughes, Ince and Kanchelskis a year later.
brings through a youth squad that are unquestionably loyal to him
wins 3xtitles including the treble 98-01 with them
gets rid of Yorke, Cole and Beckham within 2 years
rebuilds team around Ronaldo, Rooney & Rio/Vidic
gets rid of Van Nistelrooy and Keane for getting mouthy
Wins 3xtitles and CL.
Ronaldo wants to leave, Tevez starts getting mouthy. Sells them and buys Robin Van Persie
WINS ANOTHER FUCKING TITLE

Like he never let shit fester. The moment he thought you'd turned the corner in productivity or had started questioning him, you were off. For as much as Mourinho sucks off Fergie, he never seems to learn this lesson. if Fergie was managing Chelsea this year he'd have sold Terry and Fabregas in a heartbeat and put his arm around his best player, Hazard. Instead, Mourinho is being usurped by Terry and Fabregas in the dressing room and is calling out his best player in the press. It's ridiculous.

Might actually be the best for both clubs. Championship ticket prices +NE derbies with them and Middlesbrough would be fantastic. Sunderland need a complete rebuild. Newcastle need to learn that their system is a failure.

Watching Mourinho lose his mind is like reading posts by CleanHobo.

Arsenal are starting to be hit by injuries. We have to keep the squad intact to beat City to the league. Esp Bellerin who is playing like a Sevilla-era Dani Alves RN.

Great season so far. It's been very unpredictable.

I saw Benfica - Galatasaray yesterday and really enjoyed the atmosphere @ Estadio da Luz. Got to see Podolski bang one in with his left and some good play from Gaitan. Hope to also go when Atletico Madrid stop by.
Whether to Jason of Philaflava or John Podesta, I will speak my fucking perspective openly

Good game today. Spurs probably should have taken advantage of more of their opportunities, but it was a fair result in the end. It wasn't Arsenal's best team, but that was a great effort from Spurs. They were livelier than Arsenal for much of the game, and that's now two stellar games against top competition. Four points from City and Arsenal is damn good. A champions league spot definitely isn't outside the realm of possibility if they continue to play like this.

After Juve started the year terribly I finally feel this squad may actually have potential. Also Morata is such a monkey.

Was sad to see Leicester lose to Arsenal on a questionable red, they were going to win that game before that. I still think Arsenal is going to take the title though, they're getting healthy at the right time.

Still surprised at Spurs, they've really shown that they have the patience to wait and play a possession game until something opens up. As a result they just don't lose all that much. They've got a deep team that plays well together, but I'd like to see a little more decisiveness in the final third. Two wins against City is gold. Game of the year in a couple weeks when they play Arsenal.
