Nice defeat at Old Trafford to kick start our disastrous season. 

Just can't see where the creativity or goals are coming from.

Im talking about Liverpool play their game against Norwich on the 9th of August so they get 2 more days of rest than us.

ahhhh, gotcha!

Who gives an arse. They'd beat us even if we had a week of rest.

Dybala don't want club without CL, so Lukaku-Dybala exchange canceled

Do you think there is any chance of a Chelsea player getting close to winning the golden boot? Tammy Abraham looks like a promising striker but I don't think he has enough experience yet to be challenging the likes of Salah and Aguero. Hopefully though in a few seasons time he will be up there competing for top goal scorer. it would be nice to have a prolific goal scorer as we haven't really had one since Drogba.

Mike Riley admitted VAR was wrong to give Watford a penalty against us...

This is so silly. Least it didn't cost. They also said Arsenals goal against Palace shouldn't have been ruled out.

Mike Dean everyone. Mike Dean.

Man United (h) confirmed on Feb 17, Monday. Our mini winter break will be the week before that.

That means we'll play United, Spurs (h) and Bayern (h) in the space of 9 days in February!

[Laylabelle 9,534]

Oh goodie!!! Be a fun few weeks

[Milan 17,955]

So, the point of the mini winter break was to give EPL teams some rest, before the international tournaments and before the CL knock out games so that the opponents from Europe do not have such an advantage.

And what just happened?

They give us Man United and Tottenham in one week before the first CL knock out game

So we don't have games between 1st February and 17th? I assume players will get around week off. Then we can have mini pre season with new players.
