    Chelsea spent all that money and nothing on defenders. Let in another three today.

    I think if they'd had Thiago and Mendy playing today they'd have won, but yes so far their defence is a problem.

    But then defence has also been a problem for City, Liverpool and United. A great season ahead.

    VAR what is the point? Stonewall penalty for Arsenal. Walkers foot is ridiculously high and he makes contact. Ref blows for HT and it’s forgotten about.

    They will probably threaten to make a breakaway league if they dont get awarded the 3 points 🤣🤣

    Not confirmed yet but there are reports on BeIn Sports on van Dijk‘s injury that he’s done his ACL, and will be out for at least 6 months.

    If true that surely tips the title back in City's favour.

    Grim. ACL wouldn't be a surprise. Lucky he didn't snap his leg in half.

    Penchester United get a Penalty and Bruno Fernandes who never misses a penalty misses the penalty(well it was saved)

    Some will say justice was done as it was very soft

    I think that Bruno Fernandes is a class player. His contributions must have got UTD a lot of points since he joined.

    Genuine question what do people on here make of the Aguero incident.

    I have seen people on twitter say its nothing and other people on twitter say its disgraceful and he wouldn't do it to a man

    If you haven't seen the incident here it is.

    Bit of a idiotic thing to do... Apparently it is a yellow card offence now but we've seen plenty of times where officials have had a player put their arm around them when talking before now

    With Aguero its a bit more silly if he's trying to get her attention... Her reaction to it is pretty spot on though

    He definitely wouldn't have done that to a male linesman. Not a good look.

    Fuck me, it's absolutely nothing.

    If he put his arm on a male lino's shoulder it wouldn't even get a mention.

    He could probably pat a male lino on the bum and it wouldn't get a mention either. But things are a bit different in context

    I can sort of see this argument too but the more I look at it the more patronising it comes across to her.

    VAR had another stinker yesterday for certain but what on earth has happened to the standard of defending in the PL!

    We're 5 rounds of matches into the season and I think we're yet to have a 0-0. Some argument that that's a good thing but when the champions have a zero goal difference, Man U are -4, Arsenal are only +2 and Chelsea also seem unable to keep a clean sheet too there's something gone wrong.

    There are some abhorations, like the Villa match in that, but I'd have no confidence in any of the top 6 keeping a clean sheet at the moment.

    If VVD is out long term, you can add Liverpool to the long list of clubs needing a top CB in January...

    I reckon he would, plenty have, it's trying to be all matey with the officials etc to get decisions their way.

    Pickford deserves a ban for that tackle but not sure if he can get one if VAR have already had a look?

    Might do Everton a favour though, can Lossl be any worse?  He was quite decent at Huddersfield if I remember rightly.

    They've got some 'keeper on loan from Roma as well

    Just seen that- had a look who was the keeper on their bench yesterday!
