Premier League — Matchweek 9

Jamie Vardy, ball-side of the defender, one touch in the 6-yard box.

Pep out Dycheing Dyche, 2 Goalkeepers one only 5 outfield players on the bench!

Ross Barkley scores for Villa.

And Haaland, best striker in the Premier League, just fluffed an easy one-on-one against Southampton.

Even the best miss 'em.

If you're falling out of love with the game, that's a Saturday to reel you right back in.

Tis the season to throw away two goal leads! It’s already happened a few times this season, us even twice, while yet again yesterday Ipswich, Brighton and Luton ( in the championship) tossed away a two goal lead, while Preston (Championship) went one better (or worse) and tossed away a three goal lead. At least Brighton and Preston managed a draw in the end. It’s often said a two goal lead can be dangerous, score the next goal and it’s highly likely you win the game. Concede the next goal and it’s game on!! At least we’re not the only ones fluffing two goal leads!

Chelsea lead the skunk maggots 1-0. 👍👍👍

Unreal, that move by Chelsea.

What a pass from Palmer.

He's a wonderful footballer Cole Palmer.

Watching Newcastle struggle makes me smile. I remember a conversation with one of their fans after they got into CL. The 'we've made it now' smugness and lack of humility was staggering.

But then they've always had a one-team City over-egged belief in their own importance.

Eddie Howe is going to get the boot soon.

Sublime touch by Palmer there.

Brendan @ 5. I hadn't watched MOTD in ages. Last night's was brilliant 👍

Great finish by Cole Palmer. Poor effort by Pope trying to save it. Beaten at his near post.

I'm far from pickfords biggest fan (mostly because of his distribution and weakness on crosses) but Pope's weak effort there is another example of why he is miles ahead of other English keepers.

Michael Oliver on VAR tells the ref to give West Ham a ludicrous penalty, scored by Bowen to go up 2-1

Disgraceful var review to give west ham a penalty and a 2-1 lead which is daylight robbery.
Wan Bissaka having a great game though. What a steal for 15m

Michael Oliver - another egotistical official in the mould of Clattenberg. Determined to make the game about him and his decisions. A complete twat.

More official neglect can dick should have been sent off for two deliberate kicks on Havertz.

Yellow card for anyone but St. Virgil.

The officials make it up on a weekly basis.I’ve just lip breathed the ref say I’m watching it’s a foul to Van Dyke, and then when I saw the incident on the replay my only thought was that a lot of players would have got booked for a lot less, but not even a talking to.

Sakaaaaaaa!!

Saka. Get in.

Up the Arse!

Van Dyke not covering, as commentator said. He’s on his way down as a defender.

Van Dyke should have walked for the double kick on Havertz, VAR should have got the referee to take a look at it.

VVD too busy back kicking Havertz twice and getting away scot free

Absolutely, Jeff. kicking an opponent.

Poxy RS. Plenty of time for Arsenal.

Sod’s Law…….Virgin Van Shite equalises yet should have been in the showers.

Diaz kicks the ball away.

No problem, move on.

They get away with murder and then the commentators basically cover for them. Joke.

Do different rules apply when they play?

Rob that's what is so annoying. Not much made of it at the time, but he shouldn't be on the pitch to equalise, and that's on the officials to be consistent.

Diaz kicks the ball away and no yellow.

Different laws for different teams.

Both Liverpool full backs look vulnerable.

It's actually laughable at times how much they get away with.

Nunez makes no attempt to play the ball and just throws his hip right into the back of Saka. Surely a foul?

Wonderful!

Get in!

Offside?

Justice!

Looks like Van Dijk played everybody on.

Let’s hope do Mike

Mike Dean, another nob.

Love those blue boots!

It's clear that vid is putting them onside but they will do their best to overturn it.

They were dying to disallow that.

Well in Brent!

Arsenal doing an Everton and just receding into their own half and inviting the shite on!

Just a loss of focus. Three defenders not working together.

This will hurt the Arse if it ends 2-2.

Jonny Heitinga celebrates a RS goal.. traitor 🤨

Half Arsenal on the treatment bench now.

It's no wonder the shite do well, they have 12 men plus every game.

Foul given for nothing.

Taylor also on the Shite's payroll

I smell a winner. Not sure by whom, but a winner. It's been that kind of weekend.

Taylor is bent, that was a definite corner in the last minute there, the RS player even tried desperately to keep it in.

Never mind the corner Jeff what about the goal. I could see absolutely nothing wrong with that.

Could just be too many fig rolls, Mike.

Had the draw in the Gooners game and draw in the Edinburgh Derby too!

But watching Beto's goal was the sweetest! 💙🥃😁
