They should have gone back to bed!

Good news is that the window is still open. Maybe Lanzini can find the fire escape and they can bring in Big Sam. He still have enough time to work his magic, maybe.

some great business by Spurs late in the window. Wimmer will be sold for ~15-20m to one of Stoke, West Brom or Palace, meaning that they are basically replacing Walker/Wimmer with Aurier/Sanchez. IMO that's a clear upgrade on the field, plus a great deal financially. Well done.

Michael Oliver. Yet another clown with a whistle.

It's amazing that with all the money floating around in the PL, they still have the worst refs. Shocking.

Lukaku was an open book on where he was going, and Schmeichel started a mile off his line.

Baby steps. I'm in shock that Oliver gave a decision.

Rashford. Now the game will open up.

Harry Maguire is such a good defender. Impressed every time I've seen him.

wow. I'd extend the ban for the simple fact that he even tried to argue.

Seems like whoever comes on as sub makes an instant impact. The first eleven wear them out and the subs take it to them. Rash Ford and Martial are a couple of attack dogs / straight for the throat!

Both Wenger and Klopp with some headscratchers today. Wenger has Ox instead of Kolasinac as left wing-back and Welbeck instead of Lacazette or Giroux up front, Klopp has Karius in goal and Gomez/Moreno as full-backs. Weird stuff.

Also, Alexis Sanchez is back for Arsenal.

Karius is a strange one, not sure what happened there. Moreno is in because Robertson's wife just gave birth, and Alexander-Arnold missed some training this week with a dead leg, so I assume that's why Gomez got the same. Gomez should also be a bit better defensively as AA.

Wenger's lineup seems really strange.

Everton are the slowest team up front in a longtime

Even Koeman said it, they badly need a striker with some pace
