ACL reconstruction and he thinks it's 6 months? That's crazy. I'm not saying it's not possible, but what kind of drugs are they getting to speed things up these days?

Ozil and Kolasinac are out for Arsenal's first game due to "Further Security Concerns"

What the hell did they get wrapped up into - doesn't feel like that was just a random car jacking attempt anymore.

I think they're hard to predict. A pile of new players, so they could be great and come together really well, or might be a mess. I pegged them as just staying in the PL.

Grant Hanley plays his first PL game since 2011/12 and scores an own goal after 5 minutes. Welcome back.

Yeah that Norwich defense...sloppy would probably be a favorable description of them so far today.

Have to say considering it's the first game of the season, the only game on at this time, and the first EPL game that is on DAZN only...the quality is actually pretty good.

Edit: Van Dijk just bullied his way to that header.

The defender did absolutely nothing.

Yeah I may have gave Virgil too much credit on that...

Either way getting easily pushed back (maybe? - maybe he backed up voluntarily I'm actually not sure) and not even jumping to defend the header is less than ideal defending for sure.

Edit: Well that's potentially not good for Liverpool's title hopes.

Alisson hurt is obviously horrific news for Liverpool.
