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.

    • After some of the calls last year probably won't see much of a drop off 
    • https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/48344034/nfl-begin-hiring-replacement-officials-given-state-negotiations-nfl-referees-association   Honestly fug these refs and their union. Resisting changes that would actually incentivize good performance and not seniority based systems. What a bunch of donkeys. Hope the replacements straight up take their jobs and never give them back. Sick of watching refs script games with no repercussions.
    • Donovan seems like highest risk to me. Lloyd and May have already established relationships with all these kids. There’s probably guys hitting the portal that they recruited from HS. And then there’s the possibility of transferring their own guys from their current teams. They’ve also been recruiting the HS kids for like the next 5 years already. Look at the Iowa coach who hit the ground running by transferring all his guys from his D2 program. Or going across sports to Cignetti transferring all his JMU guys year one then building off that to a national title year 2. Donovan is starting from square one having been in the NBA so long and he’s already 60. So you’re potentially punting year 1 for a guy you are just hoping to be a 10 year hire while you figure out how to actually develop your next home grown 20yr guy. That’s 1/10th of the time you have him, more or less at best. The hope would be that he would find some high level assistants who have been working the college recruiting trails already, but then are you giving up his ideal staff just to get a foothold in recruiting and transfers. Think Belichick year one was bad? Imagine how much worse it would be without Steve Belichicks transfer portal pulls. Hoping Mays or Lloyd are all they’re cracked up to be.
