Liverpool look like they celebrated pretty hard the last week. You wonder how this City side dropped so many points this season.

Personally, I think mailing it in against the team you smashed in the title race is hilarious.

I watched on delay today and wish I hadn't. What a terrible effort. The first half was alright, and Spurs looked decent. But as usual we give up a couple bad goals against and that's all she wrote. How this team can fail to score against worse teams so consistently? It's really mind boggling. I can't even pin it entirely on Mourinho because the same thing happened with Poch.

And VAR is just pathetic...as usual.

Jude Bellingham aka the prince who was promised; whom everyone thought would go to man united is going to dortmund

23m from Birmingham

Doesnt seem to be an issue with money, just sees a better chance to play early and being developed, hes only 17

Smart by dortmund, could be another sancho for them in terms of profit in 3 or 4 years

it's a smart move for him and I'd do the same if I were in his shoes. Dortmund have proven that they are willing to give lots of game time to youngsters, and at the same time they won't stand in the player's way if a bigger club comes calling with a great offer after a year or two. It cements their status as a stepping stone and feeder club, but at the same time, €23m for a 17-year-old is quite a lot. If he develops as expected, they'll net a healthy profit in a couple of years, but that's a still a huge bet on such a young player.

This Bruno- Pogba pairing reminds me a bit of the Pirlo-Pogba pairing where Pogba was at his best in his Juventus days.

well I guess Greenwoods time under the radar is over. His finishing is just ridiculously good, he makes it look so easy ... doesn't matter with which foot.

bit shaky defensively again, but the offense is flying. Just crazy how much impact Bruno has had in a relatively short time.

The best move DAZN has made recently, is having the 2nd stream without the terrible piped in crowd noise.

Bournemouth have been a great story the last few years, but surely this is the end for them. Defense is a sieve.

David Moyes is considering moves for Phil Jones and Jesse Lingard, if West Ham United stay in the Premier League

guess I'll be a West Ham fan for the rest of the way.

Four months post incident and four games after the PL restart the FA finally get around to addressing the Dier stand incident and give him four games.

Ridiculous. I mean should he have been banned? Maybe. Why in the world it took this long, and how that gets you four games is just inexplicable.

And Guendouzi chokes a guy and gets nothing? Just unbelievable when you look at the wheel of justice I guess.

I think it is because Tottenham is basically an affront to humanity. They never win anything, and now, with Mourinho, they are really boring too - just nothing redeemable there.

I can't really argue about the style of play...it's not exactly enthralling and the empty stadiums (albeit necessary) don't really help that. Winning would at least make that palatable, I think, but we're barely even doing that at this point.
