Also tonight's USOC Final is going to be awesome, wish I could stay up to watch it.

 

Playing Derby so one goals all you need.

One league goal in 7 games is abysmal. Especially when you've spent £8.5 million on a striker.

 

Wonder if those cards would get overturned.

 

Anyone else watching?

Hell of an opening 15 so far.

 

Hedges completely unmarked!

The chin strap beard is not good, but that goal was.

 

I'm a bit worried about Monaco. They seem to be in good form. On top of their league table and they defeated PSG recently.

Hope we don't overlook them.

 

Can't help but enjoy knowing that we tanned QPR 6-0.

 

Fuck yes!

 

Would be surprised if they weren't both over turned looking at this.

My thoughts on yesterday:

Santi is too light weight to play in that midfield battle. We need to play Coq-Xhaka as our midfield pairing against such muscular teams. Xhaka has great passing range too, but he has the muscle and determination to back up Francis against Matuidi & Rabiot.

Our defensive pairing needs to gel fast. Kos and Mustafi got caught out by Cavani's runs time and again, and it happened at the weekend too. Not sure if the language barrier is the issue but it will cost us points and goals until it is fixed.

Giroud was missed greatly. The amount of times our wingers got in behind and had no one to aim at was ridiculous. He made the difference coming on and is more vital to our team than people realise.

 

They can't be overturned can they? Both second yellows.

 

I thought Giroud's at the least was a straight red, but I may be wrong.

 

The report I saw said that they both got second yellows.

Stupid rule anyway. If a wrongly given card results in a red card and suspension, I cannot see why that shouldn't be rescinded.

 

Spurs got bumped off the regional fox channels for the shit Man City match that was delayed. And literally the only CL match not being streamed on ESPN3 is the Spurs.

Anyone know of any other way for me to watch?

 

r/soccerstreams always offers good stuff

 

Man. I was really hoping not to have to stream this. FS1 isn't even airing a game.

 

That subreddit is usually quality though. Always have different quality of streams and usually can grab a HD AceStream very easily.

 

Acestream is the future.

 

Should see Depay for the first time this season tomorrow. Forgot he was even on the team for moment.

 

Is FS1 really not showing a champions league game today? ESPN2 has Juve v. Sevilla

 

Nope. They are showing some random amateur golf tournament.

 

Makes no sense, they're only showing one Europa league match tomorrow too

 

Why don't American sports believe in extended highlights for their games?

 

Probably the popularity of SportsCenter and games rarely getting more than 2 minutes of coverage. Do wish there were more extended highlights for certain sports, but others certainly don't need them (baseball comes to mind).

 

It sucks, I would have liked to watch more than 4 minute highlights of the USOC Final (basically it was kick-off, goals, final whistle). I wouldn't even mind extended highlights for baseball, their current highlights have gotten worse to where they're less than 30 seconds in some cases.

 

Does FCD or NER have a dedicated YouTube channel where they post their own highlights? They might have more?
