Premier League Season 2016-2017

Second-placed Tottenham take on leaders Man City today, here are the odds at NetBet:

Man Utd vs  Stoke City

1.28 - 5.60 - 11.50

Tottenham vs  Man City

3.00 - 3.45 - 2.40

Leicester vs  Southampton

2.35 - 3.30 - 3.10

Burnley vs  Arsenal

10.00 - 5.30 - 1.32

Good luck!

Great victory for Tottenham and the first defeat for Guardiola in England. Moreover, Tottenham were the first team that managed to keep Man City scoreless this season, the performance of their two Belgian centre backs was absolutely outstanding.

Elsewhere, Man United were held to a draw at home by Stoke while Arsenal barely squeezed past Burnley thanks to a stoppage time goal from Koscielny.

Manchester United 1 - 1 Stoke City

Leicester 0 - 0 Southampton

Tottenham 2 - 0 Manchester City

Burnley 0 - 1 Arsenal

You're right Johnny it was absolutely fabulous performance by Spurs but I think the main reason was Pochetino's tactics in which 4 or 5 Spurs players pressed up so high Man City, in fact almost in their penalty box and that don't give City any time and space for combinations and movement of the ball which is their main strength.

You take that from them and they are bellow average side, not that many teams would have the balls or the pace playing City the way Spurs did it.

Son is playing out of his mind at the moment and I wouldn't be surprised if he keeps playing with him forward until Harry Kane is back. Jansen didn't prove that he striker for top Premier League side. He might need time to adjust to English style of football.

Son is really taking advantage of his chance now, if he keeps playing like this I wouldn't be surprised to see Kane on the bench for a while.

Or maybe there's room for both of them, I don't think they are an identical players, Kane is a typical central forward while Son has the more natural game of a midfielder  despite that has been used up front.

Pouchetino could play them both at the same time I guess, I don't like Lamela being in the starting 11 for example.

Son is really at the top at his game but he will be even more effective if he passes instead of shooting in certain situations, he  proved to be a great passer too against City. No need to be so selfish.

Excited for the clash of Jurgen Klopp and Jose Mourinho's club!

So where's the draw dude??? It's a possibility and maybe the higher rated one, and beside it's a full week and some other PL games before that one  ;)

Finally tomorrow Premier League continues, it has been a long two weeks without it. Finally my fantasy team can bounce back again :)

Liverpool vs  Man Utd

2.15 - 3.45 - 3.50

Good luck!

Man United snatched a point in Liverpool, can't remember the last match in which the Red Devils had 35% ball possession though (maybe a few years ago against Barcelona).

Liverpool 0 - 0 Manchester United

Possession is not everything Johnny ;) ( at least not this time anyway :))

It was obvious that Mourinho came for a point in Liverpool and he succeed to spoil the host team style. Beside those two Liverpool situations second half in which De Hea was perfect there's nothing to mention really and in fact it was quite boring game which often happens after so huge expectations.

Possession is not everything Johnny ;) ( at least not this time anyway :))

True, but it's a good indicator of which teams try to play and which team limits itself to stopping the other team from playing. Personally, I like teams that want to play ;)

Jose Mourinho said prematch that he will look into ways to stop Liverpool attacks, and that he would be happy with a draw. He stopped best attacking team in Premier League. On the other hand, game was boring as hell so I do not approve this approach :)

I think United was the dominant team first half so we can't say they just parked the bus!

Yes they were too defensive in second but we can't blame  them too much when Liverpool suppose to be in great shape, Liverpool should find a ways themselves  to open that difference and I think they just weren’t on their usual level.

Man City continue to stutter as they got held to a draw at home by the Saints, while Mourinho had a terrible return to Stamford Bridge as his United got thrashed by Chelsea.

Manchester City 1 - 1  Southampton

Chelsea 4 - 0  Manchester United

Now we have a very special situation at the top of the table, with three teams tied on 20 points and two others just one point behind. We might have a very open title race this time...

1.  Manchester City  20     

2.  Arsenal  20     

3.  Liverpool  20     

4.  Chelsea      19     

5.  Tottenham  19

What a performance by Chelsea. As Blues fan I can't recall when was the last time we look this dominate on the pitch as it was scenario yesterday. Conte's 3-4-3 tactic looks more then promising. And midfield is working like a charm.

What a ridiculous performance by MU, everything is wrong in this club when you start from up top - the American owners who don't care too much, trough Ed Woodward who don't have any idea how to run club like this on and off the field, and last but not least the managers who suppose to be a "great names" but have been past the pick of their careers long ago.

This ridiculously expensive side looked amazingly ridiculous on the field and Mourinho looks a manager who's not eager for success any more (even last season in Chelsea), I would understand that performance if this was just one of this days and players at least have shown some nerve but there's nothing, they are just bunch of soulless hirelings who cares only for their pay checks.

That's why I like players like Rooney, he probably would be sent off of if he was on the field in this game, just because he cares!

I'm sick been right about this club every time I criticized them over the years, they wanted playing safe appointing famous managers like Van Gaal and Mourinho instead of risking and giving a chance of the young ones (Giggs is a great example) but there's nothing certain in life and would be tougher even from a guy from the street to manage this club poorly.

Southampton 0 - 2 Chelsea

In fact I was surprised to see them so poor against Liverpool and Arsenal, they start improving and no wonder because Conte is very good coach, and they are top 4 team any day of the week, maybe I'm wrong but I even think they could be more consistent than Arsenal this season, probably Liverpool too, don't know about Man City though!

Third consecutive win for Stoke, Swansea can't even remember when they have won their last match.

Stoke City 3 - 1 Swansea

Yes it seems like it would be a very tough season for Swansea, just one win in ten says it all really but any of the three at the bottom looks to be deservedly there and it's a rare thing for the premier league but I think the most threatened team  emerged clearly after these 10 weeks.

Today's matches and the odds at NetBet:

Man City vs  Middlesbrough

1.19 - 7.00 - 15.50

Arsenal were denied victory in the North London derby but it was a just result considering the number of chances for both sides. Liverpool hammered Watford to move past Chelsea at the top of the table, Swansea continue to sink, while Leicester are now just two points above the relegation zone.

Arsenal 1 - 1 Tottenham

Hull City 2 - 1 Southampton

Liverpool 6 - 1 Watford

Swansea 1 - 3 Manchester United

Leicester 1 - 2 West Brom

I've watched the bigger part of the first half of the Liverpool game yesterday when they played some inspired football so they really deserved the first place in the table, really think it could be their year in the PL.

Arsenal -Spurs game desirvedly went to a draw and the funny fact about Tottenham is that they are 5th despite not loosing a game so far in the season.

United won for a change but I don't think there was something impressive about it, Swansea are just too poor of a team at the moment.

the funny fact about Tottenham is that they are 5th despite not loosing a game so far in the season.

Yeah, but they have not won a league match since that great victory over Man City, that's over a month ago!

Yeah, but they have not won a league match since that great victory over Man City, that's over a month ago!

Obviously not a good streak for them but they are still just 5 points from top and the draw against Arsenal could be considered as a positive result for them, certainly better for them than it is for the Gunners I think, anyway I don't think Spurs would be a  title contender this season, as it looks place in top 4 would be an achievement that would be harder than ever ...not only for Spurs though.

Finally back after the international break, here are today's matches and the odds at NetBet:

Man Utd vs  Arsenal

2.50 - 3.30 - 2.95

Crystal Palace vs  Man City

Middlesbrough vs  Chelsea

7.25 - 4.25 - 1.50

Good luck!

Arsenal were lucky to get a point at Old Trafford,

Yeah...but United should blame only themselves...that game should it be out of  Arsenal's reach a lot earlier...Gunners were ridiculous all game long and United still didn't  find the way to win it...that's one of the weakest Arsenal performances I saw...like ever...

Even before his appointing I said Mourinho is not the man...I stopping here.

Chelsea are the new Premier League leaders, Diego Costa scored for the sixth consecutive league win.

Middlesbrough 0 - 1 Chelsea

West Brom and Burnley are looking for a second consecutive win, here are the odds at NetBet:

West Brom vs  Burnley

1.90 - 3.30 - 4.55

Good luck!

I think it will be race til the end between City and Chelsea , Liverpool still not good enough to go to the top this year.
