There are midweek fixtures, just in case you guys didn't know.  Wink  It could be an unpredictable set of matches imo cos the players could still be slightly fatigued from last weekend's fixtures.

Didn't watch this one, but heard all the cheering at the end from some guys who were, I was still wondering for a while who won it, nice to see it was Liverpool. Stats wise it seemed Everton were pressuring Liverpool, gave them 3 yellow cards first before collecting 2 and they had a goal cleared by Liverpool from the line. And almost equal attempts on goal. This is not the same Liverpool at all, Mignolet is a good shot stopper but credit to the brazilian keeper, he and Virgil are keeping the best defense in the league so far. Now if someone can please show Manchester City the bravery at their home turf!

Of course they miss Coutinho. But they are better able to break defences without him it seems.
They struggled to break down PSG's, and Evertons defence. Maybe, not so much Everton I just think the finishing wasn't good enough. If you didn't watch the game, and haven't seen the goals you need to see the bizarre goal pickford let in. I actually lost hope, but Origi never gave up. In fact if you look at Van djik's body language after he volleys he gave up too. It was a bizarre night.

It was a great game! It could have been 3 or even 4 nill. Well deserved win for Liverpool in the end, even though it was one of the craziest endings I've ever seen to a game, haha.
I'm not sure about the 3/4 to naught. Everton had some very close chances, and could of easily won the game. Liverpool attack looked good the first 15 minutes or so, and then Everton started to dominate the midfield, and the front 3 got starved of service. I can't help but think Liverpool are missing Coutinho a little bit.

Alison did well, and I think if it was mignolet in goals for an example Liverpool would of been in a lot of trouble, and could of found themselves down by 2 early on.

Meh.
Fantastic, bloody fantastic. Watching the match on CNBC so not the best commentary but we still got a lot of action on both ends. Derby Day, but it was going to need something a bit special to take away some spotlight from Arsenal's hammering of Spurs in London... who else but a supersub from Liverpool to snatch all 3 points at the end? A weird Alisson pass free kick to I think Trent... cross for VVD (!) to try a volley (I know you last scored like that for Netherlands but oh Dijk) which was heading out until poor Pickford palms it back into play... Should/neck score from Origi.

Luckiest win of all season by far and if the commentator was right, Liverpool extended their record for most Premier League goals scored in injury time.

I said before the game I miss heavy metal Kloppball but these types of wins are what seem to carry teams across the line.

@LFC you're still top of our leaderboard, amazing form.

Yay!  Looks like it's gonna be another bad week for me. 

Btw does anybody think Eddie Howe should be a candidate to replace Mou at United?  I think the Spurs would be perfect for him too if Poch leaves.

I will be really pissed off if we don’t beat Everton especially after that cuckold performance in Paris last night.

You mentioned in the other thread you were predicting 3-1 to Liverpool. That was going to be my prediction in Superbru - I'm just putting my picks in at the moment. Now given that you are in first, and I am 8.5 points behind you, I have to weight up whether I stick to my guns, or decide to go for a different score it and make make that game a differential between us. But you are in first, and Liverpool are your team, so logic suggests your predictions would be the most accurate.

Or maybe I'm just overthinking the whole thing. Grin

I’m just sitting down watching TV with a nice log fire on, Cardiff vs Wolves is on in a bit so I’m going to watch that. Not going out tonight so nothing else to do, I might as well follow the game in our pool.

I predicted Cardiff 1-2 Wolves.

Enjoy! I've only had the pleasure of going Anfield once before, and we had fantastic seats! Hopefully, Liverpool will go back to the entertaining performances of last season, but keep on getting results in the premier league like they have this season.

Thanks Welsh Smiley

Just done my predictions for this weekend, lots of big games again. Two derbies - the North London derby (Arsenal vs Spurs) & the Merseyside derby (LFC vs Everton).

I’m going to Liverpool’s next 3 home gsmes - (Everton, Napoli & Man Utd).

^  I like to make side bets that doesn't involve me...  It's more fun that way.  And besides, if I finish itm I'd be winning more than 20 bucks.  Assuming BTC doesn't fall below 500 USD or something.  Lol.  Grin

Fair enough Smiley Catch you on the next one

Would love to play some small side bet which ends soonish (one month at the most). Let me know if you think of something interesting.

I'll prolly start one on Feb or March when things start to get really exciting in the EPL and the CL.  I haven't been following football as closely as used to this season tbh.

I did think they had a good chance of winning but no, never saw them taking a 3-0 lead. Yes, they are used to Wembley by now but no, it is nothing like having your own personal home ground. The media are all talking about Sarri and the cracks appearing but that's just stupid. Spurs ARE a good team and they are just like Liverpool if you think about it. Able to win against any big team IF they can get their act together.

Super South Korean as ever. But Giroud as usual super sub. If he continues like this he will overtake Defoe in goals scored from bench.
There is no disputing that Spurs are a good team. They have been incredible for the last few seasons, and were looking scary good a while back. I think Spurs have struggled against top opposition in previous seasons so its good to see them starting to get results. For example, I remember when Liverpool always used to beat them by a good margin despite form.

Anybody wanna do a small side bet for fun on who wins the pool?  The top three are so close and with eleo and the two guys below him gaining.  So it's really anybody's game here with the top 6.

Just 10 bucks.  Grin

I have a side bet for you if you are interested. I was just looking the table in our Champions league pool. You and me have first 2 spots in the pool (half a point difference). I am proposing a bet for 10$-20$ on who will finish higher between us when the pool ends. I will even give you a handicap of 0.5 point to make it 100% fair Smiley

Son’s goal was fantastic, I thought Jorginho should have tsken him out & fouled him on the edge of the box though, he had a couple of chances but just let him run away. Poor defending by David Luiz too but great goal any way.

I was hoping you’d have a bad week in our pool but you’re not going anywhere are you brother Cheesy

You’re on my tail Grin

Well, I think that's my best round so far. Hopefully, my luck is beginning to turn. Oh, and I remember to input every round from now on Cheesy Honestly, I saw the Chelsea - Tottenham game as a draw or Chelsea win. So, I'm actually pretty surprised that Tottenham won in the fashion they did.

There's 25 rounds remaining, I'd say that anyone in top 20 can win it Cheesy

I mean, we are only on week 13 of 38, so technically anyone could still win if they really pulled it out of the bag. As slaman29 has said, it is very close and not just between the top 3 or 4. A few risky predictions which go your way could net you 9 or so points more than most others, which is enough to catapult you 6-8 positions up the table.

Can I put 10 bucks as a side bet on me not winning? That way I'm guaranteed a profit no matter the outcome. Grin
