I'm not a Liverpool fan, but I will forever be jealous of the feeling that You'll never walk alone creates. That is so incredibly hard to replicate

im sure celtic and dortmund fans would disagree

Yeah, I like it. Me and a friend of mine made a story which went through loads of Leicester players (Jamie Vardy's Having A Party, Drink Water, Book Mahrezervations, Schmeichal Jackson singing, Etc).

Out of curiosity, do any of ye play Football Manager?

Pretty Happy With My Team This Year! Waiting to see if Lukaku plays. If he does will swap him in for Rashford. Thoughts Anyone?

 

[Pop Tatari]

I was going to pick rashford for my team but changed my mind, not sure if he will start for them. May get a sub appearance

It's gonna be Rooney and Ibra starting.

yeah that is what I think as well, I picked Ibra for my starting line up and considering who they are playing he should score hopefully

Well that was a interesting first day of the BPL season

 

[Prince Bálor]

Totally forgot the new BPL season was starting today.

Looked at the results and wow, Leicester lost, The Spurs' game ended in a draw...

Hopefully Man U crush Bournemouth tomorrow.

It felt good being back in the premier league today we played really well today against we dominated the first half but stoke fought back well I'm the second half a draw was probably a fair result

Spurs had a rough first half. Barkley's free kick goal took them by surprise I think, and Hugo going off with a hamstring injury did not help. Thank god Vorm came in and was on point. Probably the best I have seen him in a Spurs shirt tbh. Worked themselves into the game more during the first but Everton dominated the first half.

Second half was much better tho and we got that much deserved equalizer. Will say kudos to Pochettino and the squad for being willing to shift system when plan A did not work. 4-4-2 worked well and I could see us playing more in that line up going forward if it keeps giving a positive effect having Janssen and Kane on point at the same time. Honestly think we should have won considering the pressure we put on Steckelenburg in the second, but a draw was fair I guess. Better opening day result than last year if anything.

Will say tho, Eriksen looked unmotivated. Probably because of his on going negotiations. Thank god that Lamela, Dele and Son exists if we end up parting ways with Eriksen this year.

GO ARESEHILL!

That's all I have to offer.

 

[Declandimi1]

Do we have or should we start a predictions league? I'd be willing to start one if we don't

 

[Stopspot]

Shout out to @The ReagMaster for snagging 1st place in the fantasy leagues first round

I left Defoe on the bench Lloris was my 'keeper, went off injured Mkhi was my captain, came on late Ayew off injured

Martial was my saving grace.
