Everton wins again. Well out of regulation now and getting healthier soon too.

Yeah, like I've said, I never really was TOO concerned with being relegated, though admittedly there were moments of doubt. Like, could we REALLY continue to be this bad for an entire season?

Anyway, I'm not going to do cartwheels over beating West Ham and Huddersfield... Sam's big test starts this weekend. Would love a win of course, but just be competitive at least!

Rumor I heard as Dortmund is sick of Auby and he may move to Liverpool in the January transfer window.

Heh, I'm hearing that Allardyce is "watching" Aubameyang and Everton might think about making a run at him... Small world!

That would be good for Everton. That is the piece they are missing, but man is Aubameyang a head case. I heard the Liverpool rumor on the Counter Attack soccer show.

Where tbe heck did tbat come from? Chelsea has had two of the most head-scratching losses in EPL this year.

To be fair to Chelsea, West Ham are playing better. If not for a late goal last week then they would have ended up with a point on the road against Man City.....But yeah this L basically ends any hope Chelsea had of winning the league IMO

I agree along with Man United losing to Huddersfield.

Yes it was. West Ham almost took a point from Man City last week. Tomorrow games should be fun. Is it a triple header?

Yep all on NBCSN starting with Southampton VS Arsenal at 7 AM EST

Leicester City started to make a run now too. Could reach the Europa league if they keep this up.

City looked like the better team all game, but not a ton between the two. All 3 goals in the game were pretty weak, and MUFC should have put the one away in the 85th minute.

I guess there was a brawl near the locker rooms afer the Man City and Man United. Mourinho I guess thought Man City was celebrating too much and was at the center of it lol. A good ole pub fight I read.

You agreed with the penalty?

Not sure how you gleaned that from what I wrote. On the fence really. Yes there was contact and the conditions were slick and I could see the contact causing DCL to slip... Do I call that at Anfield if I'm the ref? Probably not.

We were tactical garbage for most of the game and sat on our heels and prayed they wouldn't score. About the 70th minute we picked it up a bit, drew this penalty and a corner or two. Got our goal and then pretty much parked it again...

No, we didn't deserve a point yesterday.

Nothing like playing Stoke to get your wheels back on. Spurs looked like the team of last year finally in an easy win.

Gonna be a fight for 2-4 this year since Man City has already won the league.
