The other games thread, August 11-14th

[the count]

It's been a bit of a shit show, roller coaster of a day, so in case anyone has forgotten, the new season starts tonight with Burnley v Man City.
The main question is, will Guardiola continue to work miracles and defy the odds, to add another premier league title to the Man City c/v

 

[Jürgen4PM]

Hoping for a S1- H1 ref tonight, with bruise tactics set!

 

[Hansern]

Burnley to win 1-0, Sander Berge

THANK FUCK FOOTY’S BACK!

Foden with a tattoo of his squad number on his neck.
Guessing he doesnt know it in case the ref asks.

 

[binomial]

Time to turn off.

 

[King Binny]

Kane probably knows even if he stay in EPL and break Shearer's record, his record will be overtaken by Haaland sooner or later.

I think it’s actually a ref to his grandad

I didn't forget - which is why there's already a thread. !

 

[Brizzle]

KDB dead. Just the incentive we should need to close out a DM

 

[King Binny]

Haaland gets his 2nd as Firmino completes his hattrick in 71 mins on his debut at home to last season's runners up.

Haaland is just a freak of nature. This season = last season.

Elsewhere, looks like Thuram is having a good game - Nice 1-0 Lille at halftime.

"Khéphren Thuram won 8 duels against LOSC in the first half. More than any other player."

 

[Holle]

More proof we're dickheads.

"Khéphren Thuram won 8 duels against LOSC in the first half. More than any other player."

Looks like he is playing on the left of a midfield three?
Presumably it was either him or Mac Alister

 

[King Binny]

Rodri has made a much larger impact than what I expected when they first signed him.

 

[Dreambeliever]

Kane probably knows even if he stay in EPL and break Shearer's record, his record will be overtaken by Haaland sooner or later.

Almost no change Haaland either a sticks around that long or continues the numbers to break it.

 

[tomasjj]

Rodri is their lynchpin. He holds them together.
Would have loved him at the base of our midfield.

Kick off at the Emirates delayed until 1pm
A new ticketing system causing delays.

 

[Modo]

Wow Martinelli what a run

 

[Dreambeliever]

Some goal by Saka.

Well done Sky/TNT for picking the deadest most one-sided games to kickstart the season.

Bra-fucking-vo.

Salahesq.
It would have been great to have got him when we were sniffing around two or three seasons back.

And Martinelli

 

[Mystic]

Why do blatant dives continue to be ignored by refs? Give the yellow.

Arsenal trying to do an "Arsenal" again by the looks of things.

 

[binomial]

The Elanga and Awoniyi subs have really made a difference here, probably should've come on sooner.

Yup. And it doesn't get any better - tomorrow they have picked a one sided annihilation of Chelsea for their afternoon match
