Can Leicester City really win the Premiership 2016-17?

peak epl panto shambles

am deadly srs when i say i genuinely would not swap either defensive unit today for qpr's

well why would getting injured have anything to do with flakiness? he scored two goals.

doesn't like it up him

i was over-optimistic about lpool though. can say karius matip sakho anyone-but-moreno will come in but where's the evidence klopp takes it seriously

suggest we do a kickstarter to see who out of coutinho and van der vaart will kick the most balls into a skip

yeah at 4-1 I was excited - at 4-3 hanging on it's just same old same old. And arsenal are one of the easier teams to turn over - they always let us look good.

Arsenal Liverpool of late has this kind of gentlemanly advert for the game feeling, let's both be loose as hell and make all our brittle attackers look beautiful. Bet Wenger says it was a great game, or certainly would have if it was 4-4.

yeah it feels super fake. clattenburg and scudamore gonna run on and and hit ppl with fold-up chairs next year

I thought Wij and Mane were pretty great mind. The Karius injury is a disaster.

welcome antidote to all that boring competent defending during the Euros

Petr Cech 'crashes car into pillar' after Liverpool beat Arsenal 4-3

Onlooker described vehicle as a 'write-off' in incident in car park after the match at Emirates Stadium

Cech is believed to have walked back into the ground immediately after the accident.

Bad news for Viktoria Plzeň

btw rooneys postmatch interview was revolting, what a cunt

MOTD should have shown a clip of his dive when they were making Olympic jokes at the end of the programme

Danny Murphy's "Rooney was superb" even more despicable

Jesus, Dalian Atkinson has died after being tasered by police.

wtf

holy crap. was just having a convo about him (and other players of that era/team) the other day w/ a Villa fan

RIP Dalian. I hope the circumstances of your death are thoroughly investigated.

In early 1992 the Chinese government began to look for alternative uses for a number of huge Cold War-era underground bomb shelters which were gathering dust. Joining forces with her younger brother Dai Yongge, Mrs Hawken formed Renhe Commercial Holdings, an investment company which started to transform several former military bunkers into shopping malls.

RIP. The 94 cup final was the first final I remember watching. Remember his goal pretty clearly.

what is wrong with these guys

great quote from Lacazaette, which the daily mail claims "opens the door" to an arsenal move

'If there are offers that can't be refused, I'd like to not refuse them'

This Chelsea West Ham game is a snoozefest

A 48-year-old man who died after being tasered by police in Telford, Shropshire, was repeatedly kicked by officers who used the Taser on him “four or five times” after he had been apparently subdued, an eyewitness has alleged.

The man, who has been named by the witness and local media as former Aston Villa footballer Dalian Atkinson, was tasered by two officers outside his family’s house on Meadow Close, Trench, at around 1:30am Monday.

“He was staggering, and as he staggered towards them they opened fire with the taser and he fell to the ground like a lead balloon,” Paula Quinn, who lives opposite, told BuzzFeed News. “I could actually hear him hit the ground and as he hit the ground the two officers just piled in on him and started kicking ten bells out of him.

“That probably went on for a minute or two, it seemed quite long at the time, everything appeared to be happening in slow motion.”

According to Quinn, one of the officers then told his colleague “back off, back off” before they ordered the man to put his hands behind his back. “But I don’t think he was conscious,” she said.

“They reactivated the Taser about four or five times on him while he was on the ground,” she said. “I could see it very clearly, there was absolutely no threat to him whatsoever and I am absolutely shocked.”

don't know who's in charge of trolling at Liverpool but kudos

well that went well 4 Pardew

i don't get why liverpool are hauling palace over the coals for a 2 or 3 million in a summer where they've barely spent any money, for a player they have no need for. 30m is a p great return on a bad signing.

as i say, i don't know who's behind this, you have to assume it's some obscure moneyball ish rather than Klopp's doing

yeah i can see how it's amusing to just screw over pards, but i reckon we already won this by getting them to offer 30 fucking million for chris benteke. it's like that trial by combat ep of game of thrones, we've already killed them, we don't need to risk it all by taunting them.

supposedly they see the 7m add-on requirements as unrealistic

have probably assessed palace's bargaining position correctly tbf

i'm guessing if he does go lfc break even for the summer? v nice

spurs and bournemouth next for palace so could conceivably be bricking it come deadline day

Lloris our for 4 weeks

http://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/news/first-team/general/hugo-lloris-injury-update-160816/

Palace offered an initial £23.5 million with a further £7 million in add-ons. Those additional clauses included £2.5 million should Palace qualify for the Champions League with Benteke scoring 20 goals and playing in 70 per cent of the fixtures of such a top-four campaign. These three conditions formed part of the same clause.

Ayew out for 4 months

oh and Mahrez has signed a new contract

http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/liverpool-accept-27m-benteke-bid-11770163

clearly Fenway knew their market

tbf once i'd seen how much of the original offer was just hot air it did make sense to play tough

it was worth a shot!

well sure, nobody goes in with their best offer first

good to see us at least trying not to be the buy high sell low twats we've been over the last six or seven seasons, in general at least

taking a big loss on Balotelli looks inevitable, might've helped motivate the Benteke negotiations

nice of pardew to do social media for him.

Rooney vs Bournemouth

Wow thats shit. The MOTD crew said he had an excellent game iirc

just editing a dozen or so absolutely shit moments together like that would make anybody look bad

thx yala 4 softening blow by tweeting like a knob

we'll have pulisic by then

Spurs relegated according to my quick run through fixtures tbh so top four should be wide open for ye

i am the black-gold heung-min son (4 hero remix)
