Arsenal won't win the Premier League 2022-2023

best keeper in the Prem

45 minutes of stoppage

Meh. Really sloppy passing. Fulham obviously playing for the draw throughout and succeeded.

Lol Leeds blew their lead

just no threat from the Wolves at all

like it was obvious that Fulham were bringing in two other defenders any time an attacker came close to the box, but they'd just try to dribble through it half the time

now, will Brentford beat Man U?

the fixture list has not been kind to Manchester United and after losing at home to Brighton last week it will be a big ask for ten Hag's team to eke out a result at Brentford

probably true though, lol

Maguire will look good playing for a Championship squad

should be relegated for these kits they have on

Maguire body checks an opponent right outside the box. lmao

HAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

de Gea with two awful mistakes. wtf

What a strange, distant fever dream Utd's two decades of dominance seems now

we might see a rare goalkeeper swap at halftime

lool!

holy fuck wtf

Crikey.

wow and thanks Flashscores for not sounding the goal alert noise for those last 3 goals.

oh, lol, i wasn't logged in.

The problem is that a family run club like United simply don't have the resources to compete with your Brentfords

as an american sports fan it disgusts me to see small market teams like man u get embarrassed this way, we may lack proper welfare supports in our social services, but we at least have them in our sports leagues to prevent ruthless domination by rich clubs like this

Surely ten Hag's position is untenable now he's lost the dressing room. It's time for somebody who understands the culture of Manchester United to come in and steady the ship, at the least to retain some dignity in the relegation fight. It's time for Brucey.

Jamie Redknapp getting salty with GNev "look at me when I'm talking to you!".

just watched aha

dont really get why chelsea didnt get a free kick before spurs took the corner where they made it 2-2. if it had been a defender throwing an attacker on the floor by his hair p sure var would have given a pen. liked tuchels 'look at me when you shake my hand' aggro with conte.

wig man bam. 5live were suggesting punches might have been thrown, but they always exaggerate these little shoving matches between managers.

souness winding me up and embarrassing himself by going on about how football is a man's game 5 or 6 times whilst being sat next to Karen Carney ffs.

it was a long journey for this committed fashion victim to get to the City ground, he had to travel all the way from 1948

Souness has a new column in the Mail, hope he can do for them what he did for Liverpool in the early 90s.

first he took the Sun money now the Mail, stay classy Graeme

Lol Ronaldo wants out.

Time to go to MLS buddy

NV is this Nunes midfield signing gonna transform the Wolvies

i don't wanna kiss of death this but FUCK YES

proper box to box mid, gonna add directness thru the middle, an extra attacking threat and all round dynamism god willing

thank god. i didn't know much about the lad.

right now their attack seems to be hoping Neves scores from 40 feet out so I welcome this.

Still need a striker probably but rumours are we're looking

i don't wanna kiss of death this but FUCK YES

Is it likely to transform them before Saturday's game with Spurs? Asking for a friend

Depends if he starts 😀

Still strikerless tho at the moment

Looks like he can hit a ball a bit

Matheus Nunes' final goal for Sporting was a belter. Ruben Neves might have some goal of the season competition at Wolves now. #WWFC pic.twitter.com/28ilzPQv1K

Farewell Morgan Gibbs-White :(

Insufficiently Portuguese.

I dreamed Ronaldo was going to a Saudi squad.

How much?!! Forest chucking fucking crazy money about. Can't wait for the points reduction when they get relegated and go into administration and Jon Moss is banned from officiating anything above junior schools league level after being implicated in a match-fixing investigation.

42.5 million??!! that's more than Wolves paid for Nunes!

imagine spending crazy money like they are still ending up finishing below Brentford

I like Gibbs-White, and mad that he's leaving, because I think he's probably going to get there eventually, but they just paid that transfer fee for someone with one goal and one assist in his entire Premier League career. his most productive season was last year, which he played in the Championship division on loan!

by the time he hits his full potential, they'll be back there. maybe that's why they signed him, lol.

it would've been nice if MGW had stayed and hit his possible potential, but he didn't want to sign a new contract and i'm 96% certain we've just got the most money he's ever gonna be worth in his career

it's mildly interesting that three out of the four most expensive PL players (once this goes through) are defensive midfielders in Fernandez, Rice and Caceido

Fernandez went for a record fee after only playing 17 games for Benfica too

Wouldn't be surprised if brighton spent a chunk of that on scott mctominay

Lollll

EXCLUSIVE: Moisés Caicedo has just informed Liverpool that he only wants to join Chelsea! 🚨🔵🇪🇨 #CFC

Caicedo has decided to keep his word and only accept Chelsea as personal terms were agreed since end of May.

Hamer to Blades is a decent signing but their squad is still basically weaker than it was last season.

Wants to play for Chelsea = dickhead.

Probably just wants to stay in London as opposed to Liverpool Cheshire.

As the season starts today, shouldn't there be a new thread?

yes. preferably with hateful statements about Nottingham Forest in the title

some good thread titles here

https://www.theguardian.com/football/ng-interactive/2023/aug/10/david-squires-on-what-to-expect-in-the-premier-league-this-season

£111m for caceido is ludicrous and lfc should be relieved he doesn't want to come. glad if it means chelsea have to fork out more than they want to get him, even funnier if it means he stays at Brighton. also we all know that this is how it works but is his agent really openly stating that they've agreed personal terms with chelsea before a bid has been accepted.

Chelsea are fucking the entire notion of value in transfer fees as if they took it personally that city, newcastle, united had taken that mantle off them for a while

at what stage is it strange that there arent backstreet football academies making millions like

how can there be so many barriers to entry to producing harrys maguire, theres plenty of beefy shit footballers around to be sold for a million less than he went for?

is it all agency closed shops?

Idk but I instantly want to start one

upfront costs for forming business relationships - i.e. mountains of coke - are prohibitive

start with piles of coke, work your way up to hills, cmon ffs think THINK

this is why i don't have an entrepreneurial mindset

anyway i'm rubbish at thread titles so somebody should start one so i can slander Burnley

^ mufc board in lacking a fucking backbone shocker

Yeah

Feels like they're desperately trying to delay a decision until someone turns up to make it for them

Just been in a pub after work watching periodic displays of the flight path of Harry Kane's plane as he flies to Munich. Stoked for the madness or what?

"I have in my hand a piece of paper..."

Man U basically making it appear as if the onus on deciding Greenwood's future will fall on a handful of players from the women's team, who will subsequently be vilified whatever the decision is. Maybe the Glazer bros could just pay him off with some of their lovely dividend money?

3 mins in and we have a Haaland goal

START A NEW THREAD

OR I WILL
