Premier Lg EPL Matchday 2 - On Optus Sport

[RossFC]

SA TIMES:

 

[Cruyff14]

Villa is a massive test, they did us over there last season and were by far the better team.

I am not confident at all and I'd bite your hand off for three points.

Would not be surprised if we lost.

 

[Jatz]

Fulham away, would be one of the great away days. Wish I’d watched a game at Craven Cottage.

I’ll be curious to see how we do there.

 

[Bradesmaen]

Spurs away

 

[glenferry23]

Hopefully Ipswich can do us a favour.

Big test. Villa are a quality team.

 

[jod23]

Looking forward to the first home game of the season, should get all three points you'd think.

A few players didn't look settled in, but I back Saliba to rebound. Partey was great 1st half shithouse 2nd half, wonder if we see Jorginho start or at least come on during the match.

Wonder if we will have Rice. If Rice is out, I could see Havertz at L8 and Jesus up top but honestly Havertz is our best striker right now and its silly to move him.

Bloody hell, they've had an easy run to welcome back to the top flight. Liverpool at home into City away...

Yeah they mentioned that on the weekend during the game against us and I thought, bloody hell, that's rough. Finally get promoted and that is your first two games of the season. It's basically a guarantee to start on 0 from 6.

 

[SM]

But also gets two of the toughest games out of the way. Means they can then get some momentum going.

 

[Bostonian]

I don't like being the first game.

 

[Zidane98]

I don't like being the first game.

Do you reckon they'll park the bus and pinch a goal on the counter / set piece?

 

[moomba]

Promoted teams can make things difficult in the first month, but you'd be disappointed with anything less than 3 points here.

I think we see them push City for all of 25-40 mins max, and City will go bang and end up 3+ goal winners.

 

[hawkman]

If we concede to Everton you might as well sack Ange now

 

[Ocha905]

After a mundane opening round I could see a few upsets to the "Big 6" clubs except Abu Dhabi.

 

[Bradesmaen]

We have 14 fit senior players apparently. I think 3 of them are GKs

We've got some spare you can have

 

[Bradesmaen]

We've got some spare you can have

Spare GKs? We'll take 4.

 

[hawkman]

Spare GKs? We'll take 4.

Play them upfront? Couldn't be much worse

 

[Zidane98]

Play them upfront? Couldn't be much worse

Or play DCL in goals.

 

[Jatz]

No one watching?

 

[moomba]

I am.
