Fuck Off Back To The Little Leagues: EPL 21/22

tarkowski is vile. and the ref wants sacking for not deeming that assault on richarlison card worthy.

Still completely mystified that ASM wasn’t bought by someone better this summer.

Excellent goal today.

Missed the goal but yes re: being bought, I wonder if there's a Traore syndrome element to that like suspicion that he's not a complete package

I love him.

He does sometimes drift out of games and half the stuff he tries might not come off, but there aren’t that many players in the league who can do what he does. I guess he has had a run of injuries, though.

Coaches of top teams think their systems are more important than players doing damage

Leeds keeper looked dodge to me

Wolves ay we! lord I woke up at 7:30 am on a weekend for this so better be good lol.

Brentford's story is an interesting one, no?

Wolves looking dominant again, so I'm assuming 3 points for Brentford

lol

Jimenez tackling himself was humorous.

want him to get his goal today so badly.

I just looked up Ivan Toney's age to decide which "bigger" club would buy him... 25? so, Everton or Soto next season I guess

£25m player in the current market, actually maybe £30m

Janelt looks like German Andy Samberg

Marcal what the fuck are you doing

clear pen

Through the middle seems to be the promising area for Wolves, stop with the wing shit there's a guy constantly stood there

Ok my steam just got to that, yeah clear pen

that's on you Marcal. thanks for that.

*stream, no steam here

yeah agreed.

tho week one tarkowski plowed over maupay in the box from a corner and that was deemed okay. advantage to the attacking team i guess.

wolves shook.

oh for fuck's sake. how did he miss that

this is ridiculous

this is literally a repeat of the Orlando City - Montreal disaster of Wednesday.

Toney is just working Wolves rn.

Just draw a line across the Brentford back line on Wolves attacks, beautiful. Now do the same for the Wolves defence, what the fuck is that crooked shit?

sometimes it hangs a little to one side in the morning

Having watched every Wolves game (oh except that one they won) thus far, this is the first where they are deservedly losing. Having watched very little of Brentford they don't look all that, easily beatable

glad to see the halftime speech motivated them

Aggravating that the best Wolves player so far today is playing for Sheff U

Having never seen Hwang before yeah I like him. Also apparently Traore has been on the pitch this whole match, who knew?

well this certainly helps matters

Pontus Jansen, big hard man iirc. Eh...

Brentford could go down to eight men and I’m not sure I’d bet on Wolves scoring.

Kostas starts for Liverpool, good. Milner at RB, yeah I love him but maybe not drop both fullbacks in the same match?

dreadful match. and it all started with Marcal's boneheaded decision in the box. prior to that Brentford had been building a little momentum but the life just went out of the building after that.

Jimenez HEADGAURD OFF! Serious bisnes now...

Welp

The words "absolute dogshit" spring to mind

Lol at us ending up playing 2-2-6 and still couldn't score against 10 men

Well again, first match they deserved to lose. Sort it out up front ffs

Yer man Fabio maybe deserves a start?

Hard to say. I feel like
Raul has always been streaky in terms of goals but he adds a lot of other attributes to the side. I'm not a 442 fan but the time might be approaching, in a front 2 you'd think either Hwang or Fabio starts alongside Raul

Liverpool not looking great, thank fuck it's Benteke out there, Eduoard would be skinning them

Leon Bailey’s on fire.

Terrific purchase for Villa.

Yeah that was a second half and then some.

Astonishing Everton defending for the Bailey goal. There was a heat map shown at half time which showed there was a huge gap in that inside left channel so I’m surprised how much space there was for Bailey, I thought (possibly erroneously) that Rafa is the sort of manager who would obsess over that kind of detail.

Bailey looks like the new hero though for sure, I hope that was only a precautionary change rather than anything longer term. Felt like the post-grealish era getting up and running in the second half, fingers crossed

Off to watch them at Stamford Bridge on Weds, no great hopes because Chelsea’s second team is still a top 4 contender so even if they rotate I think we’ll be outmatched. But yeah that was fun, this is fun, there’s clearly enough there for a really good season. Deano just needs to work out how to bring it all together

good game that, pen decisions were some bullshit though

not sure why chelsea arent mixing it up by going long to lukaku instead of passing it out from the back all the time. do look v likely in transition tho.

is mendy injured?

Yep, injured against Zenit, though not too seriously.

This is a good game so far.

According to My Mother he took a knock in the Zenit match
