Meanwhile, anyone sniffing a surprise loss for City at the hands of Teemu Pukki? They don't have Laporte, may not even have Kyle Walker!

It is quite impossible for City to lose this match.
If you want to place a fun bet, then this is a nice one. But, I wouldn't recommend you to expect it to come true. City will take this win even without Laporte and Walker.

City are going to concede more chances & more goals with all their defensive injuries & now Kompany has gone. They’ll drop more points too but I don’t see Norwich being a team that will hurt them.

Very risky but you may have a chance. Newcastle's defense is good but Liverpool is playing excellent football these days. I predict we will see an early goal (in ten to fifteen minutes) from Liverpool and then we have rest of the time of first half to score one or two more goals.

if Newcastle were able to show a game like when they beat Tottenham (8/25/2019) ago and maximum with their defense,
I'm sure the score will end with a narrow victory for Liverpool, it's possible the score will end 1-0 or 2-1. Grin

I normally don't do any bets out of the blue, but I got a nice surprise for my birthday and decided to put it all on Liverpool to blow away Newcastle in the first half.

$23 or so at almost 3/1 for the Reds to win 1st half 2 goals or more. Fairlay has nice odds for Scorers too...

If you would gone for Liverpool by 1 then I would say the risk was nearly zero. Anyway, good luck brother. I hope you had a memorable birthday.

^ ^ Low net spends for Liverpool? I don't think so. They bought the second most expensive defender in the world and the most expensive keeper in the world. The reason they're up there is cos of their willing to spend. But they did really well on their picks at the transfer market, so there's that.

Arsenal could be up there too if their willing to spend as much and happen to buy the players that click with the squad.

Net spend is the difference between what you sell & what you buy. LFC sold Coutinho for 142 million euros which covered the 75 million they paid for VVD & whatever Alisson was, 65 million or something.

LFC didn’t spend anything much this summer either, Klopp always has a low net spend, this was the same at Dortmund.

LFC has always been sell to buy until now. They weren’t very good so they were selling their best players & using that cash to buy news one’s. See Sterling & Suarez too.
Now I guess they are very good so nobody wants to leave.

And the club to watch lose could be United.

I wouldn't even call that a surprise. As it stand now in Premier League only real surprises are when/if Liverpool or City lose points. Everybody else will lose points in about a third of the games they should win.

City missing some defenders could result with Norwich scoring a goal or two but they will still concede enough to lose with handicap. Maybe we get a treat with result like 6:2 for the City.

Not me, Chelsea and Liverpool already won at Carrow Road, so I believe it'll be a walk in the park for City.

Edit: Draw no bet for Leicester at 3.29 looks decent...

LOL you said the same thing here. So you know what I did?

^ Nope not really. Fernandinho makes a decent center back (and I don't think Kyle Walker's injured). Even City's bench can take on Norwich away. Grin

And the club to watch lose could be United.

Oh and I don't usually do parlays but went over 2.5 for the LFC vs NUFC, Norwich vs City and Watford vs Arsenal matches at 3. Fun. Cheesy

Not easy for sure, Newcastle defend tight as hell.

Well said about the spending strategy as all big teams are buying into the idea of spending more during the transfer window. The likes of Barcelona are still spending millions even with all the quality players they had. Manchester city also spent millions before they because the force they're today. With the funds and right manager any team can buy their way into becoming a winning force in the premier league.

About your stats, Allison isn't the world most expensive goalkeeper. He was bought for £65m from AS Roma while Kepa was bought for £71m.

Last season Emery was also able to bring Arsenal to UEFA league final and lost,

I agree Emery has proven and provided the best for arsenal from the previous season to the present. Seeing arsenal this season, it's the best. Because the temporary ranking of arsenal is currently at position 5. That means Emery isn't bad, it's just that it takes more time.

They did that after they sold Coutinho. Is it going to be different if Coutinho don't leave them? Probably, but Klopp's tactics are certainly getting better and his players can perform it well enough to win the Champions League.

Unai Emery I think it's enough time. He should have been able to bring Arsenal better. Klopp alone can prove to bring Dortmund and Liverpool to be better and feared.

He needs 3+ years to do that. Last season Emery was also able to bring Arsenal to UEFA league final and lost, similar to Klopp on Liverpool. What 'better' you mean here? Do you think Arsenal is still as bad as Wenger's team?

Emery is a good manager, he needs time. Klopp & Pochettino turned also rans into really good teams after a few seasons on really low net spends.

Emery will get it right, judge him after next season.

Let us give Unai Emery this season as the time to prove that he can bring Arsenal to compete in the EPL.

I think Unai Emery should try his best to get Arsenal into the top 4 teams on the table in order for Arsenal to qualify for the Uefa Champions League next season, he does not seems to be a bad manager at the moment, but I think with Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp around managing Manchester City and Liverpool, I believe it would be very difficult for other English Premier League teams to compete for the English Premier League title this season.

Chelsea and Manchester United, if things continue the way they started would have to battle it out within themselves for a 5th place finish, who else feels both Solskjaer and Frank would be losing their jobs at the end of this season. Cheesy

Solskjaer would definitely get fired but Frank won't. The media is over hyping Frank (irrespective of the poor start in my opinion). The publicity is kinda a good thing as it's bringing positive news towards his reputation. My timeline is filled with news of praises aim at him (Lampard) for bringing the best out of the Chelsea youngsters something no other manager have been able to do. Our attacking force is improving and you'll observe that if you pay close attention to our games.

The only problem now is our defense, we need Kante, Antonio Rüdiger fit and running then we might be able to get our defense in shape might not be as good as that of Liverpool but it'll be able to gaurantee us keeping our lead in games and not conceding carelessly from defensive mistakes.

Yeah, it's a bit boring sometimes but you can't change it. Which is why I like Ajax and Leipzig or any other teams that focus on youth development and then use them to regenerate their teams. Ajax is probably a good example.

Big tim needs to fix their youth programs too. Don't let it die like the current La Masia.

I agree that Ajax is a good example for every football academy. Take a look now, Many great players in Europe are dropouts of the Ajax academy.

I am sure, the benefits of Ajax must be huge and they will use it to improve even better for their club academics.

I agree with you, it's no fault of Emery's. Arsenal need to start doing real business in the transfer window if they ever want to compete for the premier league title. The sort of players Arsenal signs aren't the kind that can win a team the league. If you ask me, Arsenal's problems is from their board and director of football, they need to start buying players with a bit of purpose to compete, for now their team is just merely good for a fourth place finish.

Unless the Stan Guy leaves Arsenal. i don't think they will see the Premier League crown anytime soon. Times changed along time ago and Arsenal refused to adapt. Gone are the days when a team would develop a player into a great phenomenon and he sticks in the club even with low pay.
