Rival watch

IMHO that is the Citeh effect.
You are very unlikely to do them on GD, so pts are your only option.
Which means the win becomes more important than the performance.

 

Everton got a point!

 

Evan Ferguson on for Brighton.

Remember when he was the league's golden boy being hailed as the "next Harry Kane"?

Hasn't scored for them in almost a year.

Still plenty young enough to turn it around though.

 

Want to feel old?
Paul Hinshelwood ex-Palace, is Jack Hinshelwood GRANDFATHER!!
(And yes, Martin H is his uncle!)

 

Haaland scores.
In other news, the sun rose this morning.

 

...and will set later. What a machine the guy is...

 

Another set piece goal for Arsenal.

 

Spanish Stoke. Michael Oliver is a useless ****.

 

And once again they create the space by fouling.

 

Don’t know what Kyle Walker and Ederson were doing

 

Do you reckon they sort of, I don't know, practice them in training...?

 

Ederson was fouled

 

Ederson fully at fault for me on that one...

 

They had two players just run into Ederson and block him off, which is what they always do now.
They rely on the ref not giving a foul and VAR not overruling him.

 

Silly from Trossard

 

Very, but funny... Interesting game this.

 

Set-piece goals, red cards and Legohead having a meltdown like a four-year-old. Standard.
I wonder if it's for the foul or kicking the ball away?

 

Clearly heard the whistle go and still kicked it away. What a prat.

 

At least it’s not another 0-0

 

Guardiola should be looking at himself for this scoreline, despite Michael Oliver's inadequacies.
Kovacic is a good player but he's not a like-for-like change with Rodri. Lost control of the midfield and let them back in it.
