The Barclays Premier League Thread 2014/2015

[Summers]

Come on Spurs. I need you to draw.

2 - 2 or 3 - 3 would be fine, if you could let Studge score a couple too.. for FF points.

[Hobo]

It's pretty obvious Balotelli isn't quite 100% match fit but the inclusion of him has really given Liverpool a bit more going forward.

[Berober]

Now I know why Lambert doesn't usually smile...

[Lineker]

I imagine Coutinho will probably come on for Balotelli at some point after the hour mark...

[EddieG]

Personally hoping Phil comes on for Gerrard, just to create some more chances. Or Phil for Balo and Can for Stevie, he's been quite poor.

[Lineker]

Steven Gerrard lost possession 11 times during the first half.

[Jimmy]

Also getting a little worried about Eriksen under Poch. It's early days, but in pre season and our first three games he just doesn't look as he did last season. I'm not sure what it is, maybe the pressing, or playing more down the right, but I just want him back to how fucking good he was last season. And he was like the only good thing about last season. Either way, cracking game so far.

[Lineker]

Penalty to Liverpool. Dier pulls Allen back. Soft but accurate.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

SNIPER!

[Jimmy]

Pathetic decision.

[Lineker]

Gerrard converts. Damn.

[GoGo Yubari]

Really soft but also really dumb from Dier to give him the justification to go down like that.

Oh look another Liverpool goal that gives me zero fantasy points.

[Jimmy]

Pathetic decision.

[Summers]

Fucking hell Spurs. Sort it out.

[DavidMarrio]

Get in there Stevie. Glad we've got that second goal, hopefully allows the defence to settle down. There were a few chances for Spurs first half.

[Nerf]

Soft but right decision.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

You'd hope that players would fight for the ball and stay strong in that position but that's just not the way these days. Letter of the law says penalty. Dier's learning a lot about the Prem today.

[Lineker]

Jimmy, do you reckon the arsewhole whinger behind us at the Lane is screaming GET HIM OUT at Poch yet?

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

A goal at the start of each half just makes things harder, even if you get good work done for the rest of the game. Now Tottenham will have to chase. We could get a goal or two back....Or we could lose 3 or 4 because of the gaps we'll have to leave.

[Lineker]

our corners are so so bad.
