Barclays Premier League- 2018/19 Season Thread

Chelsea look really dangerous, especially with Hazard on the pitch.  I think Morata has turned the ball over on every touch today.  Dammit he looks completely terrible.  Sarri will have to try other options.  Arrizabagala looked composed, he'll be a good one.

Hmmm...Arsenal did not look good today.  Man City is in another league right now.  Liverpool will probably push them but MC is fuggin amazing.  Bernardo Silva was very impressive.  They are just completely loaded.

I missed the game (was coming back from vacay).  I heard Xhaka choked again and gave up a goal.  Hope Emery have the balls to bench him unlike Wenger.

Jeez Arsenal could be up 6-2 right now.  Middle of the box is wide open.  Chelsea have to get that fixed quickly or this could get really ugly.  The first Arsenal goal was a very tough shot to stop but Kepa needs to make those saves eventually.  Great match.

Awesome game!  Chelsea is packed with talent.  Arsenal D still quits from time to time.  Will take time to shake off Wenger era mediocracy.

Great match and Arsenal could have certainly won this one...Blues at home made just a really small difference but even match for the most part.

Thought Kovacic looked very strong...Chelsea is loaded up in midfield.  We still need a centre back badly.  Arsenal is gonna be really tough this year.

Arsenal is playing for top 4.  That’s all.  They need to fix their D or it might be a long season.  They should consider benching Mustafi.  I’m shocked he was not sold yet.

Mendy has been fantastic and the depth of this team is incredible. Should be a fun year.

Mendy is big and fast.  I think the title fight will be between Liverpool and City.  Both have great defenses with amazing attack and midfield.  Other top 4 teams will be fighting for last 2 spots.  I want Arsenal to make top 4 so they can buy Dembele.

    • 99% of my complaints generally are front office complaints.  It may not appear that way always but that's where I have been for some time.   It's also why I constantly talk about random parts the last several years....  to this day, if they were going to draft Bryce Young....I thought they needed to do specific things.   They have literally done the opposite.   In a certain world, I would LOVE an AT.  A Bryce Young.  An XL.  All sorts of people.  How they have chosen to put it all together here? Meh.  I still think if Bryce Young is your QB....the easiest and obvious play for a team....would be a dynamic slot WR, a rec RB, and solid rec TE.  Spread it out.  Let him be the point guard.  I still think this team is being built for a different type QB....one that a Jake Delhomme style QB would thrive more in.  Which is in fact the heart of what Canales has been around and done.  So I nitpick it all.  If I had thought Bryce Young was going to rebound....I would have NEVER been all in on XL like I was.  I was all in XL because I thought the BY experiment was about to over quick.  Ladd would have made way more sense if you believed in BY IMO.   I don't think this team did.  I think Dave drafted XL because they were mentally ready to move on and did after 2 weeks.  and I thought the Frank think was bologna from the jump.  I just have hate the pairings and plan every since Rhule year 1.   Rhule year 1 was the last time I really thought this team was in a good place to give it a go.  It went horribly.  But....the zoomed out plan was pretty logical all around.  Rhule just was not ready and a clown on top of that.   I still think the Dave, BY, XL, Tmac build 3 round pegs and a square one at the end of the day.  Worst thing to happen to BY was to land in Carolina IMO.   Which is often how the NFL plays out.  Where you land and what the org does matters probably more than raw talent/ability often.  I do not actually have a problem with Adam Thielen in a vacuum.  He is overperforming in a vacuum all things considered.  
    • Bryce Young could throw for 40 tds and 4500 yards this season and my gut instinct still says you would triple down on hating him.
    • They should just be predetermined slotted contracts.  I feel like that was the intention of the current system, but they left too much room for interpretation about guaranteed money.  I agree though.  You play for who drafts you or you don't play.
