Football thread

Pogba's re-debut for United has been delayed, as he is suspended for the opener v Bournemouth. Goes back to the yellows he received in last season's Copa Italia.

Well lol score wise probably yes, but the jeneral outcome not so much. Let me give a little analyzes for myself. 


Hull City vs Leicester - 0-1 - I think that Leicester will be in control for most of the game, since they are the better team in paper, and Hull haven't really made any significant transfers in this window to show that they are coming to the premier league with something more then fighting to stay up in mind, so i do see them returning to the championship next year. The reason that i think that the score will be low is because for me Leicester will take time to return there confidence in front of goal and that will lead to less dangerous chances created throughout the game. Overall i do see a comfortable win for the premier league champions without many chances.


Crystal Palace vs West Brom - 3-1 - both teams have made some good signings and have been linked with a lot of talent tho i do see last years FA Cup runners-up making a great comeback from 0-1. 


Burnley vs Swansea - completly agree with your prediction and don't have anything to say really.


Everton vs Spurs - 0-1 - I think Pochetino's men will start with a closely edged victory under reconstruction Ronald Cooman side. Judging from the performance that the Toffies gave at the Wayne Rooney testimonial they haven't found there full synergy in the attacking 3-rd tho are still very well defensively. But a still hungry and ambitious Spurs side that may not get all the results against the big temas this season will be keen to capitalize on this opportunity and get a good 3 points.


Middlesbrough vs Stoke City - 2-1 - Interestingly enough i do agree that that the newly promoted side will come out victorious. They have done some very impresive buisness over the summer sighning big stars like Victor Valdes (GK) and pretty sure Negredo (ST). With that and a hungry and motivated to archive big things in the premier league side that wants to go the path that Leicester did as much as they can, for me they will be this years surprise team and will shock Stoke City with a close win.


Southampton vs Watford - 0-0 - both teams are with new managers and haven't done any significant buisness, so i think it will be a very slow and uneventful game with minmal chances and highlights.


Manchester Shitty vs Sunderland - 1-0 - For the first game of Pep Guardiola as a manager in the PL and the return of the infamous David Moyes i think we will see a lot of chances from both sides, a lot of great saves from the goalkeepers and glimpses of a new Man City playstyle that would transform them into a wrecking machine (hopefully not) as the season progresses. In the end tho Sunderland will fall over the constant pressure and the match will be settled in favour of Mangalchester Shitty...


This is just a long way to say i mostly agree with your predictions (at least the outcomes) and i just wanted to write ^^

Sunderland won't be mid-table. They'll survive but it'll be more of the same for them as it has been the previous few seasons.

On Moyes, he is a decent manager, but so is Big Sam. Sunderland have played to their talent in recent seasons, which is Why I cannot see them doing too much, but hey, football is unpredictable at times.



Also, Anyone want Alberto Moreno? He's not a good LB, at all. More of a winger tbh, with absolutely terrible (read: non-assistant) defense.

If any team could mess that up, it's us. At least we got the 3 pts, tho this is why we're not gonna win the league honestly. We have these stupid lapses at times; allow teams back into games, when we should be finishing them off.

Pretty much, yeah.

one thing: Klopp didn't win the Champions league with Dortmund. They made the final in 2013, but lost 2-1 vs Bayern.

Yepp.

Barcelona vs Sevilla - 2-0 - Well lol, point taken, don't bet against Barcelona...watched the second half, and i guess that was when the fun stuff started. Briliant goal by Suarez, great turn and a predator finish as always tho i was really impressed by new signing Denis Suarez, who not only provided that wonderful ball that lead to the first goal but also put a good shit as a whole. Munir a great talent, and an absolute superstar in the making. Messi is Messi and i'll stop there lol. Sevilla didn't have the spirit i tipped them to have and that was a little bit disappointing. From what i saw, Sevilla didn't really test the Barca defence that much. Congrats to you lol...


Bayern Munich vs Borrussia Dortmund - 2-0 - Even tho Tuchel men played better in the first half and had some golden chances, they definitely didn't put the fight i was expecting them to. Dembele again showed tremendous talent, tho his end product just isn't quite there. Aubameyang didn't impress either with a couple of doggy shots. On the other hand Bayern's defence in the game as a whole sometimes lookecd all over the place. I think Hummels was a little confused for witch team he was playing and Lahm lost his target on a couple of ocasions that could've led to pottetial goals. Vidal had all the best chances for Bayern in the whole match, missing a sitter after a great save by Burkh in the first half, but not making the same mistake after he capitalized on a parried ball in the second to open he scoring. Muller sealed the win after a corner wasn't dealt with and he slot the ball in the back of the net from close range. Interesting game never the less.
