Also, a prediction that Renato Sanches is going to be complete piss and wind at Swansea.
Up the HCMCFC.

Hoang Anh Gia Lai is my favourite Vietnamese team, as they used to have improbable runs in the (whatever their CL is called) back in the early 2000s which were featured on the Sky magazine programme 'Football Asia'.
Improbably, I'm going to Peterborough v Bradford tomorrow. Better be good.
After a solid transfer window, a couple of decent results and actually getting to the Hawthorns I'm somewhat excited about watching Brighton vs WBA tomorrow. Probz spend a frustrated, hungover 2 hours failing to find a reliable stream as we lose 1-0.
are u not coming down to craven cottage then
Watching Celtic and PSG's away trips to Hamilton and Metz side-by-side. One set of champions elect are cruising at 3-0 up, and the other passed the ball around a lot, scored one, before conceding an equaliser following some exemplary ball watching.
Next week at Parkhead should be good, Celtic might not win 3-0 but Scott Brown will be kicking lumps out of Neymar again.
Emmanuel Rivière scoring the equaliser against PSG, following a spell with us where he couldn't do anything correctly, is amazing.
Derby smashing Hull 4-0 at HT as well.
If Mbappe's leg falls off do PSG still have to pay for him?
That kickoff time for Liverpool-City. :X
Sky have got Real Madrid playing at the same time as well. Since when did they have early kick-offs, let alone ones featuring somebody important?
Presumably Asia mixed with Champions League commitment shifting.
I'd love to get the respective viewing figures on the two and send them to that Tebas fellow.
Switched to Leipzig game at half time, Obscure Midfielder Naby Keita has just spanked one in from 40 yards.
Assou Ekotto getting a red for a really good tackle. Shitfest.
Hull, welcome back to the Championship.
Livescore has alerted me to the existence of a side in Germany named 'Wormatia Worms', a new clear favourite for the best team name in football.
The ecclesiastical Diet of Worms is also one for the ages
My favourite was Roving Rovers in Ghana but the bastards changed their name.
I've always liked Techno Aryan FC of Kolkata, India.
No one can touch the Kakamega Homeboyz for the best team name.
Clearly the TV schedulers from Sky were off their fucking heads when they picked West Ham versus Huddersfield as their MNF game.
Benfica got pretty lucky tonight against one of the newly promoted clubs. Have a check of the goals for the Portimonense- little step over and curler into the bottom corner and then then winner was a fluke outside of the boot top corner job from an angle.
We also got introduced to video refereeing which resulted in an equaliser being disallowed after Portimonense celebrated, headed to the centre circle and then finally it got called back. About 3 minutes later it was ruled out for offside. Bit shit for them and not sure the tech really works when it's that much of a gap between issue and solution.
But if that call wasn't made, you'd never hear the end of it.
I had a sneaky suspicion that Lovren might be left out today, but I did not anticipate Klavan would be his replacement.
Manchester City: Ederson, Danilo, Stones, Otamendi, Fernandinho, Walker, De Bruyne, Silva, Mendy, Aguero, Gabriel Jesus.
Subs: Bravo, Gundogan, Mangala, Delph, Sane, Bernardo Silva, Foden.
Liverpool: Mignolet, Alexander-Arnold, Matip, Klavan, Moreno, Can, Henderson, Wijnaldum, Salah, Firmino, Mane.
Subs: Karius, Lovren, Milner, Gomez, Sturridge, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Solanke.
I don't understand that Man City formation. They've got 3 full backs and their midfield seems to consist solely of 2 attacking midfielders.
I assumed it's Danilo as the third centre half with Fernandinho sitting in front of De Bruyne/Silva.
I can see a 3-2 win for Liverpool.
The best result is Liverpool battering them and getting all excited.
Otamendi is a red card waiting to happen against anyone with a bit of pace. He's just Mangala but somehow even clumsier and with crap hair.
Why are Sky cutting away from the game so that Thierry Henry can drone over one of Red Nev's computer screens?
Whoever came up with that idea needs a boot in the head.
That pass looks so simple but it's perfect.
That's a lovely pass. Should hopefully be a few goals here. Both defences are a joke.
That defending, holy shit
Mohamed Salah looks like peak Antonio Valencia crossed with trough Antonio Valencia.
I can't wait until the scousers work out that Salah is a one dimensional pace merchant with zero composure.
He is also nullified anytime he has to use his right foot.
Class from De Bruyne for the goal, he sees a pass like that probably as well as anyone.
Ref has fucked that right up.
And so ends Liverpool's season.
That's Liverpool's season over.
How is that 'harsh'? He's kicked him in the face.
The least red card I've seen in a long time.
I'm a twit
Odd that Sky are getting Ederson involved with production decisions but I'll take it.
Why would that not be a red card?
They need a few more paramedics on the pitch here.
That's an absolutely stonewall red card, what the fuck are you lot on about.
He went for the ball.
