Agüero out for ‘weeks’ with muscle injury (thigh). Bad news for them, good for us....but let’s be honest, their squad can cope!

 

They'll be reduced to having to play Jesus, poor things.

 

He’s not a patch on Origi

So basically, no team as won all thirteen opening games but four have done the next best thing.

 

We should have won all 13. I’m still furious that we didn’t beat United

 

Me too. Same as last season.
I'm annoyed that a team that is so bang average (for the PL) still carries that fear factor because of a reputation that is dwindling ever further into the past.

 

We have tough away games to play, away to Leicester, away to Manchester city, away to Tottenham and Arsenal.If we are not beaten by any of them we have done very well.

 

Leicester, City, and Arsenal are easy. They'll try to play football and lose.

Jose will park 10 buses and aim to have the ball in play for 7 minutes. I'd take a 0-1 win now.

 

While I wouldn't say they were easy - well, Arsenal maybe - I agree that they will try to play and that gives us our chance.
José will do his usual job of trying to prevent both teams from playing football.

 

I know it is a dig at LFC, but credit where it is due it is funny.

The case for sacking Silva: he's crap

The case against sacking Silva: Everton can't do any better

 

When will players learn you cannot put hands in the back
It’s fairly simple
Madrid surviving there

 

Mourinho's amazing management lasted one game. 2-0 down at home to a team already out of the competition

 

What a strike by Dybala

 

Absolute scenes with var. Maybe similar to fabinho and utd goal but just seems a bit odd

 

I think VAR got it right as the rules stand
I don’t agree that it should be a foul but it’s the rule I disagree with
Tbh I feel that VAR is highlighting the need to clarify some of the rules more than anything else.
Tbh would have been funnier if Madrid had gone down to 10 and conceded the pen

 

I'm wondering exactly how far back they can go to find a previously wrong descion so they dont have to give the penalty.

 

Lewandowski has scored 4 tonight including a 7 minute hatrick
