On one hand we can perceive it as OGS lack of motivating the players.
On the other hand, stronger possession clubs, can’t handle the pace and threat, of United’s counter.

I’ve come to believe it’s some of both.

Not a good first half from Spurs, but whatever Jose said to them at the half turned things around. They looked a lot better and scored a pair for the 2-1 victory. I still find VAR mind boggling. It's used to determine Kane is fractionally offside and pulls back a goal, but Winks literally doesn't touch a player and gets a yellow card and free kick for Brighton that of course they score from it. As usual, I can't see the point of these reviews. I think the offsides being called is purely stupid and pointless, and things that should be reviewed are going unchecked.

They were queuing up at that far post for that one but Firmino bagged it!

That was a completely dominant performance against a really good side. Very well done!

Only real drama left for this season is will Liverpool go undefeated and will they break the points record. Man City away probably the only real chance for a loss, just like last season. Pep and Klopp have turned the PL into a farmers league sadly.

I didn't see that game yesterday (stupid visitors), but wow it looks like Liverpool crushed them? It's weird because when I have seen them this year they don't really look that good, but obviously you can't argue with the results. Maybe they're coming together and looking better these days as opposed to the couple times I've seen them this year.

Anyway, the league looks over at this point. I don't even think that Liverpool could choke this away at this point!

Hey, we made the CL final with Karius! We lost it largely because of him too, but we still made it!

Anyways that was exactly what we needed.

On one point though: Soyuncu.

I cant say how impressive that guy is. Just a great player, I'd love to have him beside VVD.

MANCHESTER, England -- Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay suffered knee ligament damage during the win over Newcastle, according to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

McTominay left Old Trafford on crutches after being substituted at half-time during the 4-1 victory over Steve Bruce's side.

"He's done his ligament in the knee," said Solskjaer.

This is a shame, hes been having a great season and you never like to see injuries like that, especially to young players just trying to establish their careers.

So we've had Ederson sent off, a Man City penalty through VAR, Sterling misses, gets to retake from encroachment, misses again, but scores the rebound. Quite the start.

Sounds like Atkinson is keen on screwing Wolves where he can. The City fix is in.

What a debacle from Mendy. He's been a pretty terrible signing for the most part.

I loved watching him whine to the Ref about it afterwards.

"He pushed me."

You were between him and the ball without possession.

WOLVES!!!!

Now...they should celebrate this Victory and take their next game off. Just coast a little. Rest on their laurels. Just for one game. For now.
