Hopefully the injury to Alderweireld was minor. It didn't look like a big injury, but he looked like he was in a lot of pain, so bad news for Spurs.
ya with Wanyama at DM, it makes Dier available at CB and I am still very confident in him and Vertonghen, but Toby has been the best CB in the league the last 2 years, a massive loss if its long term

hoping minor

Textbook Mourinho game so far, very boring but United clearly frustrating Liverpool.

United were excellent in the first 30. Faded a bit afterwards.

We live in a world where we need Adam Lallana to come on and bring a spark to this match. Hmmm....

don't think it's boring at all. United have been pressing very well all night.

Ander Herrera is having an outstanding game.

I think you are in the minority devo. Game is getting lit up on Twitter for being a snoozefest.

I have to work so I'm only following the boxscore.

Curse you for being on SNW!! Like I'm paying for that channel at work.

Lots of corporate year ends on Sept 30. Accountants are like teachers, no work during the summer.

As an accountant I have to stick up for him. He's gonna buy me lunch now! Oh and that was a great tackle by Valencia to keep it even.

I don't think I can back one club, I'm more of a general fan so I just wanna see quality play and matches. This year it's been City, Spurs, Liverpool and Arsenal who have been highly enjoyable to watch for the most part. And wouldn't you know it, there's your top 4 right now. Play a nice pleasing style, win games. Not complicated.

It wasn't fully parked like Mourinho usually does. United actually came out very aggressive for the first 25 minutes, but they fell back quite a bit after that.

De Gea made two brilliant saves, and Valencia had an incredible tackle on Firmino when he was almost clean in. Not the most exciting game, but far from boring.

On to the next one.

I really hope that Eddie Howe won't be Wengers successor at Arsenal. Have a feeling this guy is going to be an outstanding coach even at the next level.

Liverpool made that a lot harder than it had to be, but points is points.

Thank God Reid pulled it out of the fire for West Ham this morning.

Also, check out Payet doing kickups...with his chewing gum!
