EPL Season 2017/2018

[mighty hounds]

Just watched the 8 minutes when 4 goals were scored, very entertaining!
Liverpool look like road workers in that kit.

Especially in defence where 1 bloke works whilst 4 others watch him

Your defense was actually set up quite well. Your LB had no awareness of Sanchez coming from behind. Second goal was a ripper although not sure why Mignolet didn’t go two hands. Third goal cut apart by brilliant run and back flick by Ozil and Lacazette.

Arsenal on the other hand defensive shambles

First two goals were terrible, Gomez asleep at far post and as good as Xhaka's hit was, Mignolet should have saved it ... Most Liverpool fans (biased or not I dont know) thought we should have been 3-zip up at the break.

Don’t forgot all three of your goals were deflected. Two off Arsenal shins and Cech flapping it into the goal

Massive game for both spurs and clarets tonight in the context of their respective seasons.
Handy result with arse Liverpool sharing points

It's a bigger game for you than us
Clarets can climb back to 4th and another step nearer safety.

You will never end up 4th, Arsenal love that spot too much.

That's what worries me about it!
Clarets with nothing to lose in a stellar season.
Pressure on spurs massively
Cant wait to have Toby Alderwiereld and Victor Wanyama back!

I'd consider Salahs lucky. Definitely not Coutinho's and Firminos so-so. Was a good hit that looked to be going in, so not a deflection as such - Either way, despite being the better team in general play, we split the points - offer me that before a game at the Emirates and I'd take it.

Had the cross not hit Koscienlys shin the ball wouldn’t have got that extra lift which put it nicely on Firminios Head. Two nil up should never had lost

Have Spurs fans with us so it looks like jaeger bombs in coffee cups

FYI we’ve actually finished 3rd more than 4th.

Coutinho I think you mean .. You're right we shouldn't have lost, but the fact you're focusing on that and not your mobs inability to hang onto a 3-2 lead with 25 mins to play at home shows how far your club has fallen

3rd is the new 1st for Wenger

Bit over zealous there, forgot Liverpool picked up a point. We will have to settle for 5th.

I’d be more worried about conceding 3 goals in four minutes then worrying about our plight.

Rubbish defending once again and wasted a decent chance to open up a gap to the rest

Not in the Premier League

On a slightly diffetent note, congratulations to Harry Kane for equalling Alan Shearer's record for goals in a calendar year with one game to go.

Well what can I say
Apart from the fact that Ali and Kane shouldn’t have even been in the pitch today, Ali was lucky again that the ref chose yellow instead of what could easily been red.
To add insult to injury he then dives in the box and wins a penalty. Football really needs to get its act together. Anyway that was it. Spurs were quicker and more skillful than us, and bullied us, no excuses there. We settled down after about 20 mins but by then the damage was done.
Maybe if Ali had walked it might have been different as he also set up the 2nd. As it was Spurs gained confidence and weren’t really threatened in the 1st half. I have to say they are the best side that’s been to the Turf this year.

Disappointed to go into Christmas in 7th instead of 4th

Without prejudice; the officials really need to get their act together. It isn’t just Burnley, it’s all the “less fashionable” teams that seem to get the raw deal. Shite penalty calls like today just change the whole outlook of games, whilst the big clubs seem to benefit from either decisions going in their favour or frees not give against them.

While I agree Alli could easily have seen red, I thought the penalty was there. Long's knee impedes Ali without getting close to the ball. Ali definitely added some mayonnaise but it was there.

Harry Kane is unbelievable.
