Arsenal having a cracking afternoon against Watford: had a goal disallowed by VAR for offside (correctly) then seen a penalty (correctly given) saved by Ben Foster.
Currently 0-0 after 40 mins but this is the sort of game that you can see Watford nicking 1-0.
Surprised the Arsenal goal got given seeing that a Watford player got wiped out off the ball by Maitland-Niles on the edge of the area - The Watford player had just attempted passing backwards (which got intercepted), but was still a bloody late challenge from the Arsenal player.
Good to see that, following my rant over their refusal to make a meaningful bid to cover the US Open tennis final in which our Emma Raducanu became champion, the BBC have listened and chosen to show the St Albans vs Forest Green Cup tie. Which will be excellent viewing for all those who don't have Sky or, even if they do, prefer to watch that game in preference to West Ham against Liverpool.
West Ham are currently three points off top spot... For all the Social Media comments saying that Ole should go @ Man Utd, you only need to look at Moyes to question if it is the Manager thats the issue at Old Trafford?
As has been said on here a few times, given their midfield issues United should be asking West ham to name their price for him. Get him whatever it costs before City or Chelsea sign him.
Meanwhile Spurs under their new manager made the same attacking achievement yesterday in the PL as they did under their previous incumbent in his final game - not one single shot on target. Little wonder only rock bottom Norwich are the only side to have scored less.

But look at the positives, we never looked like conceding yesterday. We looked so much better balanced playing 3-4-2-1 with PEH and Skipp sitting but says a lot that our best two players Sonny and Kane were by far our worst yesterday. Heavy touches, misplaced passes, mistimed runs. To be fair to Sonny, think that was the first time he'd played at Goodison in front of a full house since the incident with Andre Gomes and he was booed every touch from 1st min til he was subbed with 10 or so to go, so his head must have been all over the place.
Obviously for the solidity, the other side of the equation is the lack of creativity. PEH and Skipp are combining pretty well, Skipp has been excellent most of the season to be fair, as he was yesterday but Conte will need to line up different next match as Skippy picked up his 5th booking of the season yesterday. The team is crying out for Ndombele.
Should have won it when Lo Celso hit the post in injury time. Had we won, Everton wouldnt have any complaints.

Don't think that's true. Was a 10-15 minute spell after the penalty shout where they were all over you. Lo Celso's shot was your only effort from memory.

Here's hoping so!
Id rather spurs than that lot ffs
As long as he brings Ndidi with him.
Makes you wonder why they didnt go for Rice instead of Sancho.
Some of the big boys have got to start cherry picking from West Ham because they're beginning to get a bit too big for their boots.
