Sky/BT are basically Man United & Liverpool Fan TV at this point.

Even after Spurs tanked them 6-1 with a great performance, they could only talk about Man United. It's mad.

I'm shocked, 3-0 now.

So three own goals by Chelsea? :lol:

Actually this might mean Arteta survives the rest of the season.

Well done Arse.

I am so happy right now!

I really think Atreta would have been sacked with a loss today. It was a good win.

Gotta say I like the refereeing in the Prem much more than in the Bundesliga.
Refs are letting much more contact happening before a whistle.

Lampard escapes criticism, because he's English.
With the squad he has and the transfers they've done, he's underperforming.

Manchester playing average football and getting the points. They are now officially in the mix for the title as opposed to top 4 battle.

Ole is so lucky, can't believe it.

The cavani pick up was pure genius but that's the type of purchase that most clubs can't do, there's only a few places he'd have gone.

Last gasp of the transfer window.
It was a pure panic addition, but it plays out very good tbf.

Olé must have a massive smile on his face after Liverpool's draw with Newcastle. A 10-0 victory on new year's day and they go top of the league.

Sort of sums up how "competitive" the prem is this year. Top 11 all within 10 points of being top.

Wowzers, tied for points. What a way to start the year.

VAR has not stopped the bias towards certain teams. Refs have a bias whether they realise it or not.

When I was going to Leicester matches every week they were nearly all Saturday 3pm kick-offs (or Wednesday 7:45 for midweek games). So far this season Leicester haven't had one game on a Saturday at 3pm and apart from an FA Cup match don't have one for the foreseeable future. The game has changed in many ways.

Would that spurs penalty have been a penalty the other way round?

Leeds have been the better team but losing 2-0 at half time. Spurs have played well though.
