    Where can I watch St Pats vs Shamrock Rovers @Giggles

    Been given a tip to bet on Mason Melia to score. Lads only 16 but got the swagger of Giroud.

    Though why would you watch a game just for a bet? Surely if it wins it wins and you just check after.

    If he's to witness Adam Idah on a weekly basis then maybe he's done the job. He near drives me to it when it's only 4 times a year.

    During half time in CP-TH I switched to another channel where it was Bochum v Mainz, the summariser for which had a very out of place South African accent. Sure enough it was Sean Dundee, as I live and breathe.

    These South Americans and having babies so young needs to stop. Now I’m forced to watch Gallagher play deep again.

    Chelsea now just a right back away from a full XI worth of injuries/absentees.

    Bettinelli; [blank - but probs James in week], Fofana, Chalobah, Chilwell; Lavia, Fernandez, Chukwuemeka; Nkunku, Mudryk, Broja

    We could play until 6pm and not score. Players just aren't of the required standard unfortunately. Can't blame them, nothing they can do about it.

    I’ve watched this exact game about 20 times since Tuchel came in. Chelsea’s home record in the past two years has to be in the bottom three

    I can't remember being as forlorn as when watching this game and looking over the squad. We're looking at years and years of this to come. This is baseball tanking in an open league.

    It's just not a squad that has been put together to play football together. When analytics turns ugly.

    Losing at home to Nottingham Forest, Aston Villa and Brentford without scoring is some effort.

    Looking forward to ruining Spurs’ title chances next week before back to the same old.

    We have far more chance against teams that attack us than teams that sit in low blocks. The only times we looked dangerous were in the first half when Hickey went on a couple of adventures and we counter-attacked into the resultant space, one of which saw Madueke hit the bar. If you just defend in a deep block we won't ever score unless via fuck ups.

    At home to shite is default 0-1.

    It's a nice idea, well, actually it isn't, but, thankfully, it isn't happening. Spurs have been egregiously lucky on numerous occasions this season. Beating Palace 2-1 with 1 shot on target sums it up. Robbing Sheffield Utd blind with two goals deep into added time, needing a last kick of the game OG to beat 9 man Liverpool. It'll run out. Spawning so may wins puts them in a good position for the top 4/5 though, which is good for keeping the shit on a stick brigade [United and Chelsea] at bay.

    Angeball working is going to cause an issue for one of the Uniteds you feel.

    Assuming the first 8 games are a good barometer, Arsenal, Liverpool, City and Spurs should be comfortably clear of the rest. Newcastle are feeling the effects of a lack of great depth now. 2 games a week, injuries and bans mounting. United are going to need to start getting results away at the sides mentioned in order to keep pace, unless they can click into a better way of playing.

    I was thinking the same. We took the foot off the pedal big time after the break but who cares I suppose, it was a cracking first half.

    Summerville is the absolute lad. One of the very best players in this league. He terrifies defences when he runs at them. I'm a bit apprehensive for the inevitable January interest.

    Spurs will get sunk by their complete lack of depth in defence and midfield. A couple of injuries there and they're straight back to Dier and Skipp.

    Has anybody made a joke yet about an Australian managing a player whose name is nearly Skippy? If not I'll get to workshopping it.

    I'm not sure that's what we're seeing so far if I'm honest. All the games they've lost in the league were way before Champions League started. And on top of that, losses away to Brighton and City, at home to Liverpool and a draw at West Ham are on brand for them. Sure, the extra games will have an effect overall on their season, but I feel they've been exactly how they were in the second half of last season so far.

    I always felt Skippy should have been called 'Skippo' if the show was to achieve a grittier, more realistic representation of Australian society.

    Fair play, that is mint. Good to see even the goalkeepers play a high line over there.

    Also a great effort by Darmstaft to see Kimmich sent off in the first five minutes, and then be down to nine themselves before half time.
