How Kepa managed to convince any team pay over €20 million for his services will forever be a mystery to me. Can't defend him anymore... Feel sorry for the human being but he's just completely lost whatever he had. It's over for him yet he's still signed for 5 years lmao.

Also brutal news about VVD that is a giant loss for Liverpool. Can't stand that club but will never celebrate an injury.

Lol, yeah it’s ridiculous. Is this the first time that Liverpool has been burned with this though? We had that junk last year with players “offside” by virtually imperceptible margins.

And thats ridiculous enough, but what is the explanation here? Mane's elbow-hair 'breaks the plane?'

The whole thing is a joke. Literally no one at any level can argue this makes the game better or more fair, but here we are. They pencil in that line at one pixel width and make their determination from that. It would be much better if they had one review of the “incident” in half speed and had to determine from that look whether the player was offside/fouled. If you can’t tell from half speed, it’s not a foul, or offside or whatever.

To me there are so many factors. Camera angle, when the ball is passed, which body parts have to pass the line and where that line is formed. It’s all up in the air. There’s no value in calling players offside by a shoelace.

Ddg made a possible save of the year

He also had the strength to push the ball out past wilson so he didn't have an easy rebound

Van de beek should be walking into this 11

Hes only a sub at 75 minutes when they are begging for some creativity and guile in midfield

That's a beautiful team goal

Vdb huge effort to keep a ball in, beautiful pass to Mata, who sends rashford in, rashford then cuts in and hits a perfect back heel to bruno who puts it top corner

Pogba coming on before him was a joke as well.

That was quite the start for Spurs.

Edit: That was a brilliant goal from Kane too. He’s having quite the match so far.

This Spurs squad is suddenly very deep...Lo Celso, Alli, Dier, Tanganga, and Lamela aren’t even part of the squad today. You still have Bale, Lucas, Vinicius, Doherty on the bench.

Having a fit and in form Son is so important, they work so well together.

Yeah fun to see him back... I am just wondering if this could be spurs year. They put west ham to the sword so quickly and efficiently and lit MU up even before they've integrated bale into the side and I dont think you can overstate how dominant he was in the past. If he brings a fraction of it, look out.

Out of the early contenders, Everton is ok but not that good, you could see when they were lined up against Liverpool that they are just not of the same quality... I think they even cheated palace via VAR earlier this year to get points. Good but not at the winner level for me. Yet

Liverpool just lost a major player for the year thanks to evertons dirtiness, city look inconsistent, Chelsea has no d.

Maybe this could be spurs year finally, and either way, this is gonna be a super fun season to watch for neutrals I think!

Wow that was like a rugby tackle on bale while he was getting that shot off. Guess he was already going down. Dribbling skills still on point though
