Might as well start a goal down with Moreno at left back

rightly so. Moreno is hilariously bad, the fact that he is a starter in the PL is beyond amazing.

[White Out 403]

Talk about a great win against quality opposition!

too bad Moyes was his usual negative self today and subbed Defoe for McNair. As always he was so scared of losing that he killed rhythm and momentum by making an ultra-defensive change, inviting pressure from City. And of course he paid the price.

Unlikely Barce sell a keeper, as Ter Stegen is hurt with a knew injury.
Only 2 weeks until transfer deadline and City has already spent the more than anybody this summer.

I didn't watch every game this weekend, but Costa just got booked for dissent and I think he's the first one under the new approach there.

Chelsea are playing pretty well. Kante-Matic-Oscar great in midfield.

rumours in Spain now that they won't sell ter Stegen to City, but the other goalie, Claudio Bravo. City apparently have to pay €20m, which takes their summer spending to around €210m.

have to wonder what Hart is going to do. There isn't a real vacancy in the top half of the table right now. Maybe Everton, but Stekelenburg was pretty good against the Spurs on Saturday. West Ham maybe?

Yeah I saw that. I like Bravo, doesn't make nearly the bone-headed plays that ter Stegen does.

Does Courtois still want out?

[Senator Clay Davis]

Pretty nice from Hazard. Chelsea definitely will be the team to watch this year, if they can add Mahrez look out.

[devo22]

typical Costa. Terrible decision by the ref to not send him off.

Ya know, rarely would I disagree with you here, considering the offender.

I think that was the right call. Adrian really embellished, and his poor footwork got him in trouble.

[cam_wmh]

Oh wow, the face grab by Carroll on that high kick. You got the call, but embellishing just makes you look ridiculous.

[cam_wmh]

LOL, tied.

Lol at West Ham fans after the goal chanting "There's only one ginger Pele"

I have. Adrian had to emergency poke that away. As soon as he fumbled in the switch-back, he should've been ready to take a tackle.

[Senator Clay Davis]

Kante should have been sent off with a second yellow for his foul there. Worse than his first which did get carded.

[devo22]

well, then we just have to disagree it's a late tackle, the ball is gone, his studs are up and he clearly connects with his leg. It's not even a question in my mind.
