GW 19: Boxing Day and following
- Thread starter OCST
- Start date
I just noticed his arm was up and went down when Burnley got possession. Jesus Christ, he’s not subtle.
Another Fulham player thinking he works for Khan's wrestling business. Can't attack a minor like that. Leno needs to be banned for assaulting a minor like Mourinho a few seasons ago
I don’t know how the hell you fix this United squad, nor do I particularly care. It’s like they’re competing with Chelsea to be most inept club in the prem.
Almost every single position is a ridiculously expensive and easily avoided mistake.

... while clubs up and down the league (and elsewhere) thrive with good players that Utd and Chelsea let go.
Not really. Martinez clearly got the ball first and didn't go in reckless.
I’d have been alright with a foul or booking (Emi is lucky Rashfoed pulled out), but it’s just heaping misery at this point for it to be given as a throw.
just realized that since Peter Drury is exclusive to Sky/NBC Sports, he won't be on Amazon Prime UK. It appears Jon Champion is "just" a contractor/freelance for the "other" major game of each GW, and he gets called by Prime UK. Since Prime UK is carrying the Boxing Day fixtures, we get Drury twice this week
City with 75% possession. Everton need to be a bit better when they have the ball. Feels like we're all waiting for City to score.
I love how Everton is playing but it would be naive to think that City won't score in 90 minutes.
Beto started instead of Dom, and although Beto is a big holdup guy, I think Everton have fallen into a bad habit of just aiming a haphazard cross at Dom for their attack. They're being a bit more creative, spreading it around.
Real time edit: Ederson makes a greeat save, palming over the bar at a promising shot from Harrison to his left.

Credit to Everton, they played their way back into that first half. I feared the worst after the first 15 minutes of sitting deep.
1-0 at halftime. Everton on the front foot since their goal. I don't know if they can keep up this intensity for 90 minutes - Patterson at RB, in particular, had to take a professional booking and, is struggling to keep up with Grealish, who seems the bright spot for City - but I LOVE LOVE LOVE watching them compete like this. The body language overwhelmingly favors Everton- they are relishing the challenges, and City's guys are stomping around pissed off, like how dare these try to compete.
Legit penalty claim, but these shutter step penalties have to be legislated out. It’s absolute nonsense that the player with every single advantage is granted another.
