Football (Matchweek #7)
Coffee is indisposed for 'Saturday football' so I will be substituting for the 4 day extravaganza

FRIDAY
Wolves v Crystal Palace (8pm BT Sport Box Office)
The winner will be equal top. Really.
Wolves haven't been as impressive as previous seasons. Seem to be struggling to find a permanent role for Traore while missing Jota. Palace will be awkward and reliant on Zaha. HOME WIN

SATURDAY
Sheffield United v Man City (12.30 BT Sport)
Sheffield gave Liverpool a game last week & aren't playing as badly as results suggest. Another week of pain though. AWAY WIN

Burnley v Chelsea (3.00 BT Sport Box Office)
Burnley have been dogged as usual ... but losing. Same again. AWAY WIN

Liverpool v West Ham (5.30 Sky Sports)
With Antonio it felt like an up and down Liverpool were vulnerable. Without him it will take a solid hardworking performance against a team that always seems to keep winning at home (24 wins and a draw in 25?). DOGGED DRAW

SUNDAY
Aston Villa v Southampton (12.00 Sky Sports Box Office)
Reality check for Villa last week while Southampton controlled the other leaders Everton. DRAW

Newcastle v Everton (2.00 Sky Sports)
Everton also had a dip last week and will be without both full backs and possibly James (TESTICULAR INJURY). HOME WIN

Man Utd v Arsenal (4.30 Sky Sports)
Used to be the biggest game around. Not any more. Someone should tell Sky. HOME WIN

Tottenham v Brighton (7.15 Sky Sports Box Office)
Kane .. Son ... Son ... Kane ... blah blah blah. Still no start for Bale. HOME WIN

MONDAY
Fulham v West Brom (5.30 Sky Sports Box Office)
The first six pointer of the season. No one will be happy. DRAW

Leeds v Leicester (8.00 Sky Sports)
Leeds have been hugely entertaining but Leicester are above them despite getting smashed 3-0 by West Ham Utd. Could go either way so .... DRAW

Re: Football (Matchweek #7)
Thanks,Sven!

Good start. Agree with all, but fancy Arsenal to get something at Old Trafford. Hope the rest of your predictions are correct!

"Matchweek"?????

King hell!!

Come back Coffee, all is forgiven.

Don't make me say that again!

Matchweek?

Embarrassed for all concerned...

Re: Football (Matchweek #7)
Just hope that we don’t hear ‘gameday’ on this thread.

Sven Roeder 6:57 Sat Oct 31
Re: Football (Matchweek #7)
Saturday Football? Wolves play Friday
Weekend Football? There’s a game on Monday
This Weeks Football? Not including European nonsense

Football (Matchweek #7)
PERFECT. Describes which round of matches and makes some people’s heads explode. Which is nice

Any alternative suggestions?

Re: Football (Matchweek #7)
Have a look around the board to see if there's anything else you can spoil, Antly.

Ronald_antly 8:12 Sat Oct 31
Re: Football (Matchweek #7)
This thread was 'ready spoiled' out of the box.

Don't blame me, blame SvenSON.

Kaiser Zoso 8:18 Sat Oct 31
Re: Football (Matchweek #7)
It seems strange that Wolves are now joint top

The beating we gave them seemed so comprehensive it didn't look like they were ever going to recover.

Sven Roeder 8:50 Sat Oct 31
Re: Football (Matchweek #7)
To be fair they’ve beaten Sheff Utd, Fulham, Leeds & Crystal Palace
Could only draw at home to Newcastle & were smashed by us & Man City

Shows looking at league tables before about a dozen games means not a lot

Manuel 9:24 Sat Oct 31
Re: Football (Matchweek #7)
I never study league tables early season, means nothing really. It also doesn't help that some have played less/more games, they need to get those games played pronto so can see a proper table. Cunts.

Haz 9:33 Sat Oct 31
Re: Football (Matchweek #7)
It is a tad strange to say the least, hearing folk saying that they don't study the league table early doors.

Especially judging by the 90 odd percent that had us relegated after our first game. I smell bullshit,

Manuel 9:35 Sat Oct 31
Re: Football (Matchweek #7)
Haz - It's not important, don't worry, but I honestly couldn't tell you what our position in the league is.

geoffpikey 10:02 Sat Oct 31
Re: Football (Matchweek #7)
Thanks Sven.

I fear we'll get smashed today. But I am often wrong.

Couldn't really care about any other games. 0-0 everywhere would suit.

Steady 10:16 Sat Oct 31
Re: Football (Matchweek #7)
Liverpool struggling in defence, not looking convincing, no VVD, West Ham playing well and in form .... all points to a Liverpool 3-0 victory

pdbis 10:51 Sat Oct 31
Re: Football (Matchweek #7)
Liverpool will have 12 men, so no joy today.

wanstead_hammer 11:12 Sat Oct 31
Re: Football (Matchweek #7)
Nice one, Sven.

I think we’ll get at least a point up there later. The players seem mentally more focused.

Burnhammeronsea 12:20 Sat Oct 31
Re: Football (Matchweek #7)
If Haller plays a blinder and gets a coupleof goals, the newspapers will no doubt be using his name in the headlines."Hallerween misery for Liverpool or such like". Wishful thinking though.

Mike Oxsaw 1:46 Sat Oct 31
Re: Football (Matchweek #7)
The media will insist on a comprehensive Liverpool victory.

Black Armbands Matter.
