If you're going to post, have your shit together. Leicester was never ahead 3-1. Arsenal scored to start and got up 1-0. Leicester came back, thanks to some awful defense and mistakes from Arsenal, to take the 2-1 lead. Welbeck equalized just before the half. Leicester scored about 15 minutes into the second half to take a 3-2 lead. Then Arsenal put away two goals in 3 minutes to win it 4-3. It was a good game, but Arsenal dominated for long stretches. The Foxes did what they do and got some goals on counterattacks against the run of play.
Overall, I thought it was a hell of an opening weekend. Lots of entertaining games. Man U looks scary good.
Right on brother

Liverpool just flat out dominated the Gooners today 4-0. Maybe the best performance of the Klopp era. Thrilled with how deep he has built this team. Adding Salah was brilliant. This team is so deep that even transferring Couthino to Barca doesn't phase me (would have pissed me off 2 years ago).
And, the Reds got a very favorable draw in the Champions League Group Phase (unlike my Bhoys at Celtic). This looks like it might - might - be the season we've been waiting for!
YOU WILL NEVER WALK ALONE!
Damn we sucked today. No other way to describe it.
Why the hell did Liverpool waste $45 million on Oxlade-Chamberlain but not bring in anyone to help improve the god awful backline? I know y'all thought y'all had Van Dijk wrapped up, but I don't think he would have magically fixed the defense by himself. Could have used the $45 mil and $120k/week y'all spent on Ox to get two solid defenders.
As for Newcastle, Rafa's a god. It's amazing what you can get out of shit players if you make them play organized. Here's to a rich oil sheik buying the club and propelling us to Man City status.
Arsenal just keep doing Arsenal. Run of good form, awful result, predictable interviews about learning lessons, run of good form, awful result, predictable interviews about learning lessons, rinse, repeat. Nothing is going to change until Wenger goes. Everyone knows it, but those with the power to do something don't give a damn. Stan Kroenke & Wenger say "Bros before CEOs." I'd give my left nut to see Wenger sacked and Arsenal splash the cash for someone like Ancelotti, Simeone, or Tuchel. Not happening, though.
17 NBC for this NBC Gold bullshit. Taking away our soccer access to bleed us for an extra $50 is bullshit.
