The Barclays Premier League thread 2015/2016

[FLiam]

Walcott starting up front against a central defence that you wouldn't call the most mobile is something we'll see often this season I think.

No idea where Wilshere is.

Sanchez misses out through injury? No he doesn't...

Nah, Copa America involvement, says right there.

[METALMAN]

Nice attention to detail there, Linekles. Pity you weren't quite so thorough when you posted about the CHARITY SHIELD in the PREMIER LEAGUE TOPIC.

[Lineker]

MEANWHILE, IN LIVERPOOL:

It's the Community Shield, you prole.

If we're being specific in detail, it's the Community Shield these days...

[Lineker]

Oh look, they are carrying out the Premier League trophy along with the Community Shield!

[METALMAN]

OH MY GOD YES I KNEW THAT OBVIOUSLY

YOU BLOODY PEOPLE

Haha, jog on.

Community Shield talk almost always ends up in the PL thread every year. So, you know, hush.

Somewhat concerned about any midfield which has Ramires in the deep role (and Fabregas as #10 rather than someone like Oscar). We may be giving up a lot in the centre today.

[Kaney]

I think we'll score first then lose 2-1. I'd like to think we'll be like last year and want it more than City did, but Mourinho likes to annoy Wenger so it'll never be as easy

[FLiam]

Ramires is a horrible player.

So far he's stamped on Cazorla's ankle, kneed Ozil in the stomach and now scissor tackled him from behind.

Yet he hasn't been booked.

Oh football's back.

[Colly]

It's still real the Charity Shield to me dammit!

[stokeriño]

1-0 Arsenal.

Ramires can run, and apparently this is sufficient for him to continue appearing on a football pitch.

He used to also score the odd wonder goal, but those have dried up in the last couple of years.

[Baddar]

Ox 1-0

[Kaney]

Get in! The Ox is so amazing! Who needs Wilshere?

[MDK]

Tidy finish

[FLiam]

That's a fantastic goal.

Want to see more of that this season please Ox.

[Jimmy]

Yeah, that was a very nice finish. Is he usually injured, or just struggled to hold down first team place? 

[Lineker]

Yeah, nice goal I guess

[Colly]

I look forward to one of my favourite EWBism's, Kaney responding to an Arsenal goal 15 minutes after it goes in. Football's back
