Chelsea's defence is awful...

 

[The Flash]

Missed the Gunners' thumping of Chelsea because I was on the train back home. Disappointed for that, but only that.

This is Serbian football level of stupidity

Dortmund-Real has been fantastic so far. Tempo is ridiculously high.

Big Sam may fuck off to Malaga an bury his sizeable mug in a bowl on sangria for the foreseeable. And Fergie wont be far behind him Id wager....

Brendan Rodgers > Pep

 

[The Flash]

United still looking too "put together". They might be out of the title race before becoming a real team at this rate because City, Arsenal, Liverpool and Tottenham are playing great team football so far.

Brendan Rodgers > Pep

Pochettino > Fraudiola.

 

[Cat Milk Supreme]

Payet > Messi

Balotelli's stats in Nice this year:

Played 2 games in EL - scored 1 goal.
Played 3 league games, missed 2 league games - scored 5 goals, got sent off just now

Literally a last second goal by Arsenal to win against the triple-decker bus of Burnley.

This is the second time Gunners survive with a last minute goal this season. And it's controversial again, the first time was a terrible penalty, this time it's an offside+handball for goal.

Amazing how much less upsetting such things are when your own team benefits.

Milan comes back from 3-1 to beat Sassuolo 4-3

Well yeah, at least I'm not delusional enough to argue that they weren't bad calls. Many are.

Swansea just sacked Guidolin on his birthday, poor guy

From the eight matches Feyenoord played in the eredivisie (Dutch league), how many did they win?

 

[The Flash]

They won all of them.

Lost to Fenerbahçe in the Europa League though

 

[Forostar]

Yes and yes!

 

[The Flash]

I'm keeping a closer eye on Eredivisie than I normally would this season, because one of my favorite players, and by far my favorite Turkish player, Enes Ünal plays for Twente. He's the top goalscorer in the league so far, in fact.
