Hell of an article I'd think any City or United fans on here would want to read this potentially interesting even if you don't support either.

Was that the fastest season opening goal of all time?

 

[Midas Mulligan]

United getting a fortunate handball, but Leicester with the better of the play.

James Maddison looks really good. I’m surprised he’s adapted so quickly.

 

[Ulrich]

Well Fck.... with only a 1GD, the season is already lost as MCFC should be averaging over 3GD/match and Jose-ball will never close that ground.

 

[JayH]

Sanchez is worse than TMac.

Second coming of Sami Nasri? Great at Arsenal and shite everywhere else?

I really like Leicester , part because I've been there and the people are super friendly if confused why an American was there, partly because they remind me of old school EPL teams when the core was still English ( Maguire, Maddison, Vardy) surrounded by decent but not mega money foreign players and they manage to be pretty good like that. I'd think another top 10 finish is in order for them.

Spuds didn’t look too good.

Really bad news for us yanks, as Yedlin went down with a non contact knee injury at the stroke of 90. If we’re lucky, it’s just a mild hyper extension, but my wild ass guess is he’ll be out for at least a month and maybe a year.

Fuck. Was just going to ask about this - I didn’t see it but my kid ran up to tell me about it and that it didn’t look good.

Non-contact knee is more often than not a really bad injury. Fck!!! Tyler Adams, please pick up the White Courtesy Phone....

Wolves are fun to watch. Tons of speed and have no fear of bombing forward.... granted, it’s only Everton, but they are a spirited side.

There was contact on the Yedlin injury, but not that much. More awkward than anything. Hope he is okay.

It was non-contact to his knee. All about how it came down. It didn’t looked good. I say this as someone who has done his ACL, MCL, and meniscus.

I would have really liked to have seen this match. I thought I set the DVR but didn't . Watched the highlights on youtube looks like it was a joy for a neutral. Two evenly matched decent but not spectacular sides. Interested to see if Richarlison can keep this up. He started fast last year and faded but he's clearly surrounded by better talent at Goodison.

He also went straight from a full season in Brazil into the pl.

He’s a good player. He obviously can’t keep up 2G/g. But that’s probably not what you meant.

I was impressed with Neves, even though I watched him a few times in the championship.

So far, he and Maddison have been the players who’ve most impressed me.

Of course I meant 2 goals a game , it'll take an Everton man to break Dixie Dean's record!

Seriously I'd think a 20 ish goal season would justify his price tag in the current market. I think both these teams could be in the second tier of the Premier league with the likes of Leicester and West Ham battling for 7th.

He actually went from Brazil to Watford last year. This is his second EPL season.

Derp, never mind.... realized you were referring to last season and not this one.

The Prem will have VAR by next season.

See: Mané's second goal v West Ham today.

Awww, Keith. Rough morning?

BTW, doesn't the fact that it came off the defender nullify him being offside anyway? See one of Kane's bunk ass goals last year vs. Liverpool.
