The Official 2017/18 Premier League Thread

[paxtonwolf]

West Ham seems to be an eternal merry-go-round where they first employ a club legend / fan favourite / fun football manager. Then it turns around, the results are worsening and they employ a British Dinosaur Manager™. He keeps his job for a couple of seasons until the fans start protesting against boring, results oriented football all the while the team are performing within or even above their means. Then they start over again with another fan favourite and the cycle repeats itself.

And for my next trick I present to you: Paolo di Canio as the next West Ham manager. I can't wait for the day when that actually happens.

I loved the bloke on 5Live after Moyes' 3rd match in charge, who suggested Ray Winstone should be Assistant Manager

He's like the boring Priest from Father Ted. I don't even register what he says.

Bournemouth should have been in the lead already. We all know what's gonna happen...

 

[Kandi1977]

fudge off ref! Rashford wipes out Ake there. Crystal clear FK not given and United score from the resulting corner. fudging jammy clams! And offside as well!

Hopefully they get all their lucky decisions today, rather they get them tonight than Saturday

Bournemouth are basically a championship side.

Brentford are better

At least they're making more of an effort than against Liverpool. Although their effort to stay at least 5 yards away from any Liverpoo player the entire game, was second to none.

It’s only a matter of time before they are where the likes WBA are in any given season.
Brighton were no Barcelona but this a walk-in the park for united

The referee is as usual a total waste of space and why we need VAR now!

Guessing yet agian no free no yellow just hasn’t a clue

Unless it happens in front of them as with Cook, they guess

 

[Rorschach]

That was no free either. Who is this ref?

Hope they give his guide dog a bowl of water on the touch line

Didn't see utd have a problem after making changes like we did. Shows the difference when it comes to having a winning mentality

They weren't playing a side in a relegation battle either. Bournemouth have had their slippers on for a couple of weeks. Makes a massive difference.

Are you as down on Spurs as you come across or is it just your posting style? Can't quite grasp how anyone could be as negative as you seem to be following Spurs atm

WTF did the dog do to upset you?
