Top: Arsenal ML / Man Utd ML
Bottom: Liverpool ML / Man City ML / Spurs ML

I decided to go for a multi today, was thinking about a single bet like i said a few posts above, but then i thought "fuck it, it's opening-weekend, let's be a little greedy", and well  Good thing I decided not to include Wolves since the game vs Leicester finished 0-0, phew~

I said yesterday that I didn't know what to expect from Chelsea and Man Utd, but I ultimately picked Man Utd for a few reasons. For starters, @buwaytress said it earlier, Chelsea lost two key players (Hazard and Luiz), combine that with a new manager who's still trying to convey new tactics and gameplan to the squad, plus the starting XI one hour before the game (Abraham?, Mount?), I thought Man Utd were the big favorites to grab the 3 pts. Funny thing is that i think I predicted a draw in the Bitcointalk pool lol

All in all, not a bad start.

Congratulations to you too. I am always unlucky with multi bet no matter if this is a double or acc 3 or even acca 10 lol
I will always find myself one team lost and I lost my multi bet 😛

If I was to find a multibet then I would go for this:
Liverpool
City
Man U
Tottenham

Fuck! I would win it! Just missed it �

It was quite nice to see Arsenal gaining a victory against Newcastle United as there were quite a number of key players missing for Arsenal due to injuries issue for this game, the manager of Arsenal Unai Emery would surely need to achieve some result for the team in this new English Premier League season, I think it would be a good achievement if Arsenal could qualify for the Uefa Champions League next season.

It was a flop against the blues and this signifies that they aren't ready to jerk up with the giants, hope they take this serious and pit their house together to work as team, they got more opportunities but were unable to get the finish point to make the goals.

It's pretty much expected to happen especially when they have a new and untested manager coaching the team, Frank Lampard might not have a great start for the season and it will be talked about and be judged for weeks especially if the upcoming games the team will show no improvement in the table. If it was still Maurizio Sarri managing this season the outcome might have been different against Man United, remember that during last season they also have a 4-0 winning game against Man United and most of their matches after that was mostly Chelsea defeating the team.

I know right, a number of Lampard's decision also raised a big flag, I was curious to know why Kante, Pulisic and Marcos Alonso were all on starting on bench, and the only the thing that came to my mind is the preparation for Uefa Super Cup. I hope I'm wrong though, because there is no way I'll see that as genuine reason, this is the first game of the season and you were not playing against a newly promoted team.

[buwaytress]

@tomahawk nice win. I did believe Chelsea were the far weaker side, and the odds reflected that but I thought they would be galvanised the way United were with an old boy at the helm. I suppose they weren't in enough dire straits. 4 nil is a bloody result however you look at it and Abramovich will be even more disinterested by this. I mean to lose 4 to nothing is an embarrassment, more so it was to a team that didn't challenge for anything last season.

Now I fear the backlash in Super Cup and damn Chelsea, now the odds will be bad for betting on Pool.

Lol, I just took some time off to let it sink in that we lost 4-0 to useless Manchester united. Lets be sincere, everyone that watched that match can testify that Chelsea doesn't deserve that score line. We came to United home with inexperienced youngsters yet we took the fight to them. Easily we would had scored 3goals in the first half. We hit the woodwork (post) twice on different occasions.

If you aak for my opinion, I'll say, the innexperienced of the players cost us and that first goal through penalty stole the momentum from us, forget about the score line for a minute and look at the match statistics you would understand why I said the boys didn't disappoint but well stats don't win matches.. I still believe in Chelsea and I know we'll surprise many football lovers this season. We don't deserve that score line.

[joniboini]

We don't deserve that score line.

Well, in the end, it's what matters the most. Liverpool 1st leg against Barca is not bad and they should have scored one or two goals but in the end, they lost 3-0.

Welcome to the real-life man, where nobody cares how the match went and only look at the scoreline.

[Naida_BR]

I think Chelsea will be able to make at least a single goal in this match and a 1-1 draw might be the most ideal result. Chelsea slightly dominates the ball possession with several shots on target attempts although it doesn't effective yet.

That was my previous hope for chelsea.
In the end, that hope did not come true, that the second half of Chelsea really decreased his appearance to conceding 4 goals. Lampard must really work hard again so that the next match must get 3 points.

I think that it was just bad luck for Chelsea.
Of course the team didn't show good performance but 4 goals cannot describe their performance.
I hope they will be better in the next game and get the 3 points, because I have faith in this team for this season.

Now I fear the backlash in Super Cup and damn Chelsea, now the odds will be bad for betting on Pool.

I'm looking at the Super Cup odds right now, most sites have FT Chelsea @5.40 and above...I think i'll avoid ML and just go for total goals.

Btw, is anyone keeping up with the Ozil-Kolasinac news? It's actually pretty messed up, whole thing went from a robbery a few days ago to a gang war LOL https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/9701877/security-guard-mesut-ozil-sead-kolasinacs-gang-threats/

I wonder if this thing affects the squad both mentally and psychologically (?).

This is not just some random attacks but a racist attempt to spread general terror for players from south-eastern Europe.
Ozil is a Turkish-German and was attacked several times last year for his sympathy to his country of origin and his religion. Even the German fans cursed him forgetting what he had done this far for the German team. Sead is also a Bosnian and the White Europeans don't consider Bosnian an European.

I read somewhere that some chaps probably from the gang were recently arrested in from of Ozil's house (i think).
This is really getting absurd and should not be happening in the Footballing world.

This is really getting absurd and should not be happening in the Footballing world.

Violence should not happen anywhere and people are behaving like hooligans and cannot be tolerated, two people from Tottenham are arrested for altercation with security personals patrolling his residence which is unfortunate.

Liverpool V Chelsea is coming up and i am going for Liverpool to win with ease here but i am going with Liverpool scoring two goals or more but looking at the H2H stats Chelsea is leading the table with 3 wins but considering their last weeks performance it is likely to be the case in this match.
 

[Coyster]

because I have faith in this team for this season.

I have no faith in Chelsea this season to be honest with you, I think they've got s shallow squad bereft of depth, not any quality on the bench whatsoever, I'll love to see how they brace themselves up for their next game against Liverpool in the super cup.

Ominous signs are brewing up for Frankie, Chelsea have a history of making use of the axe(sack)and i hope he isn't chopped off before he even gets started.

We haven’t discussed LFC for ages brother but I think if Klopp plays our best team Wednesday we’ll murder Chelsea. I think they’ll have a sustained period of mediocrity now, Hazard has gone & they couldn't sign anybody due to the transfer ban. I mean they had some kid called Mount in the first XI & their main striker is a dude who was on loan in The Championship at Villa last season, it’s kind of embarrassing.

I predict a comfortable win for Liverpool. I was offered a free ticket but I only just got back from Amsterdam & the flights & hotels are obscene in Istanbul over those couple of days.

My prediction is 3-0 Reds

I won't argue with that although I hope that won't be the scoreline. I'm a big Liverpool fans (not as a team) but for the individual talents especially our African ambassadors representing us over there at the club. I wish Liverpool can outshine Manchester city this season although when they're playing a match involving my team, I'll always hope for Chelsea to find a way to win, I know it'll be impossible but I just have to hope. I haven't given up hopes on Lampard's Chelsea yet.

My prediction- Chelsea 2:1 Liverpool. Just hope the boys can bring the fight they brought to United at the first half and sustain that energy into the second half and probably win the game. This match/cup (if we do win), might just take our season to another level.

[sammyp]

Liverpool actually have an upper hand on Chelsea in this upcoming fixture. They (Liverpool) have a very strong team with all their best players likely to  feature. They are in their prime now and with all that said, Lampard and his boys can surprise Liverpool(that's my wish)

I don't think we have any chance that Chelsea is going to surprise Liverpool after watching first match of both teams Chelsea was not near to be a team and Lampard was also really struggling and I am sure now he is going to be first manager who is going to be sacked from his job as most of predictions coming about next match I am also sure we are going to be watch another murder by Liverpool in this super cup.
