In that case no problems, was a fantastic save. Nice height for Martinez though.
Premier League Gameweek 2
- Thread starter matys
- Start date
As per the laws of the game
"When the ball is kicked, the defending goalkeeper must have at least part of one foot touching, or in line with, the goal line"
Villa players made out of cardboard from the looks of it
Not quite. A red can be given if a defender pulls a players shirt which stops him scoring. As there would have been no attempt to play the ball, it would be a red and a penalty as well
Interesting comments on the red there
Atleast one has to be on the line
That City team seems like Pep thinking this game is irrelevant.
Can’t knock the effort tonight
Konsa gives Villa the lead.

what a shite game week for me.
what a shite game week for me.About time
Say it softly, but that City lineup is one of the worst I’ve seen for a while. 4 error prone defenders, two DMs, one aging rapidly and a very talented but unproven youngster, compounded by a crap bench where they can realistically only one bring one player on (Mahrez) to win the game.
If it wasn’t Pep on the touchline, I’d back Wolves to win.

I’m backing Wolves tonight anyway, did the double over Pep last season
Wolves ripped them a new one a couple of times, so lets see.
Its pretty much all we have, Aguero and Bernadro are crocked, Laporte and Gundogan have Covid, Mahrez is only over Covid and while in the squad not fit to start. Eric Garcia is probably on a plane to Barcelona.
Yeah and they are always good against top teams. It’s still Pep and De Bruyne though, so I’m inclined to think City will scrape though.
Really hope they do it again. They’ll never get a better opportunity to do the treble over City.
Wolves will win this. City had non-existent pre-season, didn't even play a friendly and Pep missed most of it.
I see. I was wondering by you guys put out that team. Couple that side with Wolves having more match fitness and they have a real chance tonight.
On a side note though, could this be your worst PL starting 11 since you won the league for the first time? Take De Bruyne away and even WBA would fancy their chances, let alone Wolves.
Ramsdale always looks rubbish when I watch him
Wolves are a side who always give us nightmares, I wouldn't go as far as WBA fancying their chances but its a top 4 squad at best tonight. Essentially we're missing our best attacker, best defender and our 2nd best midfielder (according to Pep) and both our right wingers..
I think we'll be playing a sneaky 5-3-2 or 5-2-3 tonight. Fern, Stones and Ake as a back 3. Walker and Mendy as fullbacks. KDB, Rodri and Foden as midfield 3 with Sterling and Jesus up top.
Wolves to win 3-2
Yeah that was one of those exaggeration to make a point comments
Anyway, that back 3 or 4 depending on what Pep chooses is dodgy at best. Even if you do win, I see Adama and Jimenez having another field day, just that most likely, KdB was too good again.I’m going for a 2-2 draw.
This. Holding on was the problem. Good call from the ref, would have been easy to cop out with a yellow.
Ramsdale isn't looking the greatest buy is he.
Is it me, or does Phil Foden look a right nobhead?
It's not just you.
He's got a very punchable face.
cheated on his gf and mother of his child so he probably is a bit of a nob
Yeah that was one of those exaggeration to make a point comments
I’m going for a 2-2 draw.
You have more faith is us than me. Given our lineup I think 3-1 or so to Wolves.
Well, daft as it sounds but I just see that as standard footballer stuff.
I mean more like the guy who causes shit on a night out but is nowhere to be seen when it kicks off.
Tbf, you having arguably the 2nd best player in the world sways my prediction.
Can't see City not winning this, might be flukey but they'll win
Really? Have a bit of faith
Never confident when I see Jesus on the team sheet, surely City can do better..
He’s not made any mistakes, albeit no spectacular saves or passes either. SU have to give him time.
Looks like a Spurs kit
Eager to see how Ruud Gullit will do in his debut.
It looks like City kits have Covid.
Nice dive, should be a yellow.
Why is that not a dive? Why is that not a yellow?
