Premier League 2021/22

I see Digne now has more assists this season against Everton than he did while playing for Everton.

[Kyle]

Oh boy, can't wait to be playing in the championship with our brand new 50k+ seat stadium. We do look better than we did under Rafa, though. I'll see how we do against Brentford before I officially call time of death.

On BT? I heard one of them say that they were celebrating in front of the Everton fans in a factual way, not to justify it?

Nah, sounds like it was on the North American coverage. 
 

Shit game, good result.

Bye Everton 🖕 (apart from @Kyle.)

[Adam]

Genuinely think Everton might go down.

Still, based on the disparity in wealth between divisions now there's a good chance Everton would get 100+ points next season in that league so maybe it'll be fun for a change.

[gunnar hendershow]

There's a possibility Everton and Newcastle both duel for the all-time points record in any English league if they are both relegated. Unlikely both go down, especially with the clubs they're battling with having much less resources to make changes before Jan 31.

[Cymbols]

Nah. Both would probably have the resources to piss the league in theory, but over a season as long as the Championship is, you’ll always get mad results which flip the script. 
 

Apart from chucking bottles at Villa players, got no long lasting beef with Everton. But fuck if it wouldn’t be satisfying to see Newcastle drop again.

[Colly]

No chance at all of both going down, plenty of dross at the bottom.

[Lineker]

Brentford and Wolves have been taken off the field by the referee due to an errant drone flying over the stadium.

Aye the odd result, but considering Fulham and Bournemouth are pissing the league this season, I'd like to think Everton would do the same.

That's not arrogance by the way, it's just the sad fact of how the money disparity has distorted the division's competitiveness to a degree unfortunately.

I didn't see the Joelinton injury, hoping it isn't serious. Absolutely fucked if so.

Bournemouth are one point ahead of Blackburn in third, and three ahead of QPR in fourth. I don’t think things are quite as bleak as they seem in the second tier. Even Fulham aren’t yet out of sight either. 
 

Just don’t think the Championship is as easy as big clubs who drop down/look like dropping down, seem to think it is. Goodness knows Villa very nearly fucked it in trying to climb out.

Bourneouth have until recently been romping away, they were unbeaten until November, and Fulham's last three results have been 7-0, 6-2 and 6-2.

It is a lot, lot harder for teams to compete with those coming down from the Premier League nowadays. I'm not saying it's completely uncompetitive or anything but it's clear that the power of those sides is stronger than it's ever been.

[Baddar]

Probably undeserved, should have finished goalless but a win and a clean sheet. Nice.

[Benjamin]

They only showed a replay of the goal where you can see it, but it looked like Cavani was offside when Martial passed to him?

Yeah I'm curious about this. I'm having to listen on the radio and they're adamant Cavani was offsides in the build up. Anyone watching, would love to here your thoughts!

[Baddar]

I listened on the radio and can confirm he was clearly onside. 😑

[Cymbols]

I’ve just given this context, so really, the Tweet should self destruct, but that’s for sure a close call.

 

[Baddar]

Level, let's just move on.

[Lineker]

Oh Southampton. You've scored entirely too early.

[Baddar]

Literally twerking to come.

He'd cost us £140m though. Newcastle will get him for £12m.
