  1. Fwiw our odds of winning the league was cut from 25/1 to 16/1 after the Villa game too
  2. Still 18/5 for us to win or 23/20 for the double chance, might be worth a cheeky drop. Got a good feeling about this one which means it's going to bother me even more when we get our customary defeat tomorrow
  3. I think it was blatantly obvious with Onana decision today, I'm only surprised they didn't get the pen for the handball from a point blank header when the Wolves player had his arms to his chest. The commentary is sickeningly bias also, however it was refreshing that they saw the Onana penalty as a stone waller and didn't try and defend the call. It's only 1 game and much can change throughout a season as you say, but I'm quietly confident we'll be up around there come the end of season provided we keep our injuries down.
  4. Man Utd with the smash and grab at home to Wolves that was horrific, early days of course but so far the league has been as poor as last season: Spurs looked spent without Kane. City (Score aside) looked quite ordinary and a better team would have given them a much tougher game. Liverpool vs Chelsea was 2 bald men fighting over a comb. Arsenal almost bottled the 2nd half of their game and limped to a win. Villa were all over the place in the 2nd half vs us.
  5. Had a poor end to last season but to be fair to him he has owned that and come back looking a different player. Gave an excellent all round performance yesterday and if that is his level under Howe rather than a flash in the pan then I take back all judgements.
  6. I'd take a point now but this is the best time to play them before they build up a head of steam. Possible if improbable.
  7. Too early in the season to make judgements but none of Liverpool, Chelsea or Spurs looked anything special, even Arsenal looked shakey at times, I'd be happy with top 6 but early signs puts us in the conversation for top 4 again.
  8. We've certainly thrown the gauntlet down tonight, we've looked terrifyingly clinical.
  9. When was the last time Bruno had a good game, love the guy but I can't keep ignoring these types of games.
  10. How the absolute feck was that just a yellow???
  11. Gordon has impressed me so far, made some good decisions and he seems to be everywhere, Tonali looking like he's been playing PL football for years. Diaby is a worry like.
  12. How did you watch 54 minutes in 4 minutes?
  13. As soon as it came on and I'm watching, goosebumps already
  14. First game of the season and at home, we've practically got a full squad available and they've got some key injuries. Away game will be harder to call but going for a home win this weekend.
