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.
Maybe? I dont know. It just looked stupidly easy.

Not like it'll matter tonight since 10-0 looks to be in play. This isn't even Championship level defending from Norwich.

Rojo, Darmian, await their contracts ending next summer.

Bailly out til Christmas.

Borthwick-Jackson, Tuanzabe & Fosu-Mensah, should be loaned out.


that's how I see it right now. Might be Martial on the left and Rashford up top, but both preseason and Martial getting #9 back suggest to me that he'll be up top a lot this season. In a perfect world, Gomes would get more game time than Mata but I guess I'll be disappointed. Mata's maybe the nicest bloke in football but he's slow and declining ... Gomes offers a lot more. Lingard might also play a lot on the right, but I think the front 4 are encouraged to move around and switch it up anyway. Midfield is dire, sadly. Matic's legs are gone, I don't think he'll play that much. Smalling's been the big loser of Maguire coming in because he's terrible with the ball and also RCB only. Now with Maguire, Lindelof can switch over to his prefered side ... and Tuanzebe fits the mold of what Ole wants.

Nice start to the season, but that will really suck if Alisson is out for long time.

Vlad would be having a party in the streets, especially if Wolves finished above Chelsea.

Yeah I was kidding. Half of the fans are still drinking beer at that point, so if anything it gave them an extra few minutes to get to their seats anyway.

I think it could happen in the sense that Chelsea might be pretty poor. They might finish ahead of them, but it might not be for fourth.

I don't think Sterling was more than 1 millimeter offside there if he even was.

Also dazn has been great no issues

It seems for half time and pre/post game they use the premier league world feed just like sportsnet world did, which is usually very good except when tim Sherwood is on

That actual Sterling goal was ridiculously tight as well. But I agree I do like how they show the breakdown of the decision.

The penalty retakes for VAR are gonna be the most interesting ones to me. Although pretty selfish of Aguero to not let Sterling go for the hat trick.

Oh yes. This will be brilliant.

The amount of soccer on DAZN is impressive. Streaming quality is good. I really like the Goal Rush channel when there's multiple games on. It's like NFL RedZone.

West Ham is just not on the same level as Man City, but I thought there were some positives from that game. Haller looks quite good, for instance.
