EPL 19/20
-
Another interesting weekend - Liverpool finally drop a point, Man City get back on track without playing a single centre-back, Chelsea keep on track as do Leicester, the Arse lose to Sheff United (a very Arsey result) and Spurs are lucky to scrape a draw with Watford.
The VAR continues to baffle all - not a single ref has chosen to run to the sideline to check a monitor even though it is available to them. Penalty decisions are never overturned even for clear hacks (Spurs v Watford) although a goal was disallowed for a minor unintentional brush (Leicester v Burnley) and offsides are measure to the millimetre but not handballs if there is a question of shoulder or arm (Spurs v Watford) - when it was probably both shoulder and arm given the size of a football.

@Cyclops Can't stand it myself. I watch mainly Serie A football and some of the decisions there are bizarre. Aston Villa were robbed of a goal against Brighton because of it as well because of a Matt Ryan howler which somehow turned into him getting fouled!
Think the game would be better off without it.

Liverpool beat City to go 8 points up
Over Leicester and Chelsea! City drop to 4th
Sheffield are 5th! But that is where the mid-table mess starts, with 3 points separating 5th and 15th.
For all Liverpool supporters, this now turns in to a 26-game stress as they try and maintain this massive gap. You know City are going to go on a streak at some point.
Some mad stats on Liverpool's 50 games since the start of last season. games lost = 1. Points dropped = 19. And they still couldn't win the title.

@mariner4life Liverpool now has a run of mid to lower table teams through to Christmas, while Man City has a run of tricky fixtures.
I'll be surprised if Liverpool aren't further ahead of City by Christmas.

Has the PL ever been decided so early?? Even at the height of Man U in the late 90's early 2000's??
Ever multi you put on should land on Liverpool to win as a % boost

It's November. There are 26 games to go. Nothing is even close to being over.
Yes, Liverpool have a nice gap, but there are soooo many points on offer still.
The next 5 games could be telling though.

@Hooroo Let's see what M4L has to say about that!
@mariner4life is irrelevant with silly superstition. Liverpool, hands down, have this tied up.
fuck up! just worry about a Europa Cup spot after you sack another manager.
Mid table mediocrity for us this season. Already resigned to it after the board came out and back Emery. We are a shambles

a total shambles. What is happening at that club? Big club, great stadium, high revenue, and yet have just fallen in a heap.

Who knows? Happens to most clubs I guess. Look at Man U now, Liverpool in part of the early 2000's.
Just some rubbish decision making. The thing is we will likely lose our two best players if this keeps up

Feels like a post Wenger power struggle. I think Gazidis has gone now but he was clearly maneuvering to set up Misinlat as a director of football. But after Gazidis left Misinlat started losing influence, leading to him leaving as well. Emery looks to have all the cards now but can't really play them that well.

What date did Liverpool have an 8 pt lead last season?
As to Arsenal, Emery still hasn't addressed the biggest problem - defence. If signing Luiz was the answer I don't know what the question was!
Feb
But it was a claytons 8-points because City always had a game in hand. Then we drew with West Ham, lost to City, and bang, we were down by 1. Liverpool won out to do their part, problem was, so did City.

@mariner4life "Claytons"! Did anyone ever actually try it?
