2019/2020 Premier League Discussion: Prologue

Ndombele great goal 1-1

THE HARRY KANE TEAM!!!!

Unfortunately, Villa have been a non-entity during this second half. Spurs have battered them.

Grealish sleeping on the ball for that Kane winner is just

Kane again withe the 3-1.

Kane > Sterling come at me @mole @RG

who is this scrub NBALegacy?

some scrub who used to play for Freeza's team, now he plays for Mole's team

Mings was actually very good until it went badly for villa from equalizer onwards
Mcginn is good but when angles are closed he looks one footed and has nowhere to go

Also Burnley already at it

It looks a bit ridiculous to cancel a goal because your arm is 2 mm offside. The referee is enforcing the rule, nothing they can do about that, it's really black and white stuff right now

The arm is not a body part with which you can score a goal so it shouldn't factor into an offside offence decision

Yeah isn't the rules basically anything you can gain an advantage with? Last time i checked someones finger tips isn't exactly something you're allowed to use score a goal

Unless the rules changed without me realising by the letter of the law it's not offside.

You can disrupt the goalkeeper's view with your hands -- I presume this is the logic behind it.

ready for us to obliterate Chelsea tomorrow

Go for it tiger

Mourinho in Sky studio for Chelsea x United ffs

bigger than the match itself

Arsenal: Leno; Maitland-Niles, Chambers, Sokratis, Monreal; Guendouzi, XHAKA; Mkhitaryan, Willock, Nelson; Aubameyang

Subs: Martinez, Luiz, Torreira, Ceballos, Martinelli, Pepe, Lacazette

Newcastle: Dubravka; Schar, Lascelles, Dummett; Manquillo, Shelvey, Hayden, Longstaff, Ritchie; Almiron, Joelinton

St James Park is a proper stadium

Bruce masterclass incoming

Always been a fan of Steve Bruce tbh

Newcastle's peak this season IMO

All arsenal so far

That is very much plausible.

Mkhitaryan is one of the worst signings we have made

Bit late saying this but I've been moving.

Anyway, if that game yesterday hasn't convinced you of Eriksen's quality and his importance to Tottenham, I don't know what will. Was screaming for Poch to bring him on and when he did, the game turned around immediately. Sure, I think some of it was Aston Villa tiring out, and sure, it was just Aston Villa. However, Eriksen was brilliant.

If Spurs can't get more than 40m for him, they ought to just keep him. The type of performances and his importance to the team might very well be the difference between CL and no CL. It might be the difference between challenging for the EPL (I'm not expecting that tbf) and not. Or the difference between a group stage or RO16 exit in CL vs quarters or semis.

Obviously I hope he stays and extends. He's a joy to watch.
