Premier League Matchday 4 (Sep 9-11)

Real lack of quality from a lot of sides in this league. Considering this is supposed to be the best of the best, it really does disappoint from a quality perspective a lot of the time.
 
It just occurred to me that the English Premier League is scarcely English anymore. Even the smaller clubs are full of non-English players these days.

It's not too bad from Swansea today, about half the team. Naughton, Mawson, Clucas, Carroll, Abraham

It's clearly not the best of the best. Only the most deluded of football fans who are brainwashed by Sky would consider the PL better than La Liga.

Yeah, sure, i'm certainly not saying that. Just what is often purported. But it is still a very high standard (or should be) of football and the quality is often lacking.

Atmosphere is dead in this game too, which doesn't help.
 
How is what Ritchie just did any different from what Mane did? Yellow today, red yesterday.
 
Maybe you could argue that Mané's was more dangerous because he was at full sprint.
Ritchie is endangering his opponent as much as Mane was just by putting a high foot into a head like that.

Referees don't help themselves when they show such inconsistency, and on the same weekend as well.
 
Excellent play all round there it must be said.

Great through ball, great run and nice touch round the keeper by Abraham and absolutely fantastic defending from Lascelles.
 
This game is destined to finish 0-0, and this comment is a desperate attempt to jinx it.
 
Lascelles in superhero mode today. Prevents a stonewall goal against his side and scores on the other end.
