EPL Week 1 Other Games

Saliba wasn't even jumping for the ball, he was just hell bent on pushing the keeper out of position when he saw the ball floating in. His elbow reached in right away to the keeper's ribs to shove him away.

It's crazy they do this all the time and were never penalized.

This is where I'm at. Yet the Utd pundits were all in agreement that the keeper needs to be stronger.

Saliba had no interest in the ball. I can only assume they just want a new keeper regardless.

Now that he's gone there I hope things don't work out, but that post is a ludicrous kneejerk. I don't want ManUre to do well any more than you do, but Sesko's only 22 and is starting in a new league, country and culture. Klopp is on record as rating him highly and I'm afraid I do too. Let's not be waving the flags and banners just yet.

I will never miss an opportunity to bathe in the misery of others, even if only temporarily.

Only seeing the Arsenal goal now, very surprised that was given.

I think both are true, the keeper needs to be stronger and it should have been a free.

As a druggist you must have a lot of scope to indulge that tendency. 😉

Yeah I thought he looked iffy, but still streets ahead for gyokeres. Were they seskos first minutes for united as well?

 

[Judge Jules]

Gyokeres was the one I hoped the Arse would go for, as I reckon they may be our closest challengers yet again. No Prem club went in for him during his time at Coventry and that can't be a coincidence.

As for Sesko, yes, I think it was his first start. Admittedly he wasn't too impressive, but it's easy to forget how young he is and IMO he has a very high ceiling indeed. For him a lot will depend on how well they can knit that front three together.

 

[Fabio]

I mean, it's not exactly fair to compare all the new strikers to each other. All new to the league, or making a massive step up in level.

Of course, I'm not including Ekitike in all this, as he's just a fucking beast and it was the most obvious thing in the world he would be.

 

[The Nomad]

I was impressed with both Mbuemo and Cunha yesterday... sadly..

Luckily Sesko looked miles off it. But he's a bit behind being a new league and all.

It doesn't hit quite the same when you actually want someone to get better.
