Premier League 2016/17

[Just Joe]

At least Borini got himself a goal after coming back from injury recently.

[Baddar]

About a yard or so offside but a ridiculous finish from Mkhitaryan. 

West Brom and Pulis teams in general continue to be fucking awful. Never mind, I was expecting everyone above us to win their games in this set.

[Kaney]

Finally Giroud scores!

[DavidMarrio]

Just gotta win tomorrow and keep up the pressure as Chelsea have a tough January fixture list.  

Think the team will be heavily changed considering we have the 2nd least amount of rest between games over the period. 27th, 31st and the 2nd.

Firmino has been done for drink driving on christmas eve. Due to appear in court on Jan 31st, the same day Liverpool play Chelsea.

I didn't watch the first half (when Man City apparently had something like 80% possession), but Hull have looked pretty good in the second half so far...

...And then they give away a penalty.

What I've learned today is that Tom Davies is being wasted on the bench. Him for Barry was the sub that woke us up.

The homophobic commentary on the Everton matches is making me sick. They are always calling Lukaku gay.

Sam Allardyce has suggested the Football Association should take action against Watford’s club mascot for mocking the Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha.

Zaha went down inside the area in the 87th minute of Palace’s 1-1 draw at Watford on Boxing Day, but despite contact he was booked for diving by the referee, Mark Clattenburg. That denied Palace of a second penalty in the match as the former England manager Allardyce had to settle for a point from his first game in charge.

Watford’s mascot, Harry the Hornet, got involved after the final whistle, diving at Zaha’s feet when the player went to applaud the Palace fans. “The mascot is out of order, isn’t he? If someone is diving, they don’t get that angry,” Allardyce said. “There’s contact. It wasn’t given.”

lolwat?

[Lineker]

I really hope he is made to attend a disciplinary in his full hornet costume.

[MDK]

Its funny how Fat Sam is now the morality police all of a sudden

[Baddar]

A one match stadium ban for the mascot, who is clearly Elton John, would be hilarious.

Lukaku was playing a one-two with Gueye. The commentary was "Lukaku, Gueye" and it made me giggle.

True, but you're just coming off an 8 day rest! They'll be fine.

Hoping Stoke can get something today but I think there's more chance of Southampton getting a point tomorrow against Spurs.

Mignolet has to do better there. Talk about a FIFA arm.

[Szumi]

Lovren took an absolute nap in the marking, but oof, Mignolet did terrible there. Practically shoved it into his net.
