Manchester City players saw your post and took it personal and guess who didn't concede? 

This game ruined my parlay, I knew Manchester city were going to win but I expected at least a goal from Liverpool to hit my BTS parlay for the weekend. Liverpool are absolutely wanker

From a Liverpool perspective, the match was goalless in to the second half until the sending off but after that, Manchester City just scored the goals to demonstrate their superiority. If Liverpool wanted to send out their own statement, they should have been ahead by a goal or two before the player was sent off. I thought Liverpool would have scored even if they were going to be on the losing side but Manchester City really did surprise me. A fantastic victory for them.

They picked an unusual form since the exit of their former manager, Pep. I knew Liverpool was out of shape and would struggle to maintain possession of the game against the hungry city, but 3 goals, 3 points and a cleansheet beats my imagination by far. At most, I thought 0-1 would separate both of them. How do you lose at home to such an opponent?

I think Liverpool fans are in disbelief. I wonder if the result would have been different has Isak played because losing 3-0 at home (against an opponent that has been breaking the fair play rules and stopped Liverpool winning more Premier League titles) is not acceptable for a club such as Liverpool.

^  And the Man City boys could be feeling demoralized during the match and feel like they're not supposed to be there.  I can't help but feel bad for the players and the fans as it's not their fault...

Anyway, what are your leans for match day 6?  As my AI models told me, Arsenal, Brighton and Newcastle should be easy wins, so put the money where the AI's mouth is.  

Wish me luck.

I want to see how the City boys react in the game against Liverpool tomorrow; it'd tell us if the team is demoralized or not but personally I'd expect some deep "sad reality" in their faces. They may try to hide it knowing that the World is watching to see how they react in a situation like the one they're in...

That was some good picks from AI - you're one leg away to victory. Newcastle United should win comfortably.

About Newcastle...  Nope.    But yeah, my 'little helpers' have Arsenal and Brighton again to win this coming weekend.  And they're fading Coventry again and have Tottenham to win.  

I guess those are my bets for the weekend if I could find decent odds for them.  They're prolly going to be lined at 1.50 - 1.60 or something small.

These are the results of the latest games played:

MATCH DAY 6 - RESULTS:
Arsenal 2-1 Leeds United
Sunderland 0-2 Brighton Hove
Chelsea 5-1 Bournemouth
Ipswich Town 2-1 Fulham
Aston Villa 2-2 Brentford
Man United 1-1 Tottenham
Hull City 2-2 Everton
Crystal Palace 3-1 Nottingham
Liverpool 0-3 Man City
Coventry City 4-1 Newcastle

-------------------------

Congratulations to Coventry City on winning a stunning match at home. After returning to the Premier League after 25 years, Coventry City fans deserved a massive win.

Manchester City absolutely destroyed Liverpool at Anfield. I was expecting Liverpool to beat them but the complete opposite happened. Chelsea finally got back to the form that was expected but they will suffer in mid-table for most of the season if they are not consistent.

Arsenal seem as though they will fight all season as they try to win the Premier League again. They came from a goal down to win their match against Leeds United.

Manchester United conceded another goal when playing against 10 men. Well done to Tottenham for not giving up at Old Trafford and securing a point. I think Carrick will be considering his position.

I knew they'd struggle against Manchester city without any of their attackers but didn't expect them going completely shit without getting a single goal. That game ruined my long parley; it was the last game on my BTS betslip. Fuckers.

About Newcastle...  Nope.    But yeah, my 'little helpers' have Arsenal and Brighton again to win this coming weekend.  And they're fading Coventry again and have Tottenham to win.

Newcastle were completely trashed to the ground - I wouldn't be surprised if the Arab owners slap the club on the market. They have the money but can't invest so what's the point of holding such an investment  PL PSR is crazy.

Both picks should hit imo.

[JollyGood]

I did not watch the match nor the highlights yet but I read that Manchester City played as though they felt they had to win in order to send a statement to the rest of the Premier League that they will challenge the guilty verdicts on and off the pitch. In that case, Liverpool let down all of the supporters that wanted to see Manchester City punished for cheating over multiple years.

Out of curiosity, what would you have won if Liverpool has scored? Also, how many matches did you correctly pick out in your long parley?

They should especially if they're lined around 1.50.    And the Tottenham should also hit as I don't think Coventry is really that good.  But will not bet it without a handicap.  Lol.  If 'Coventry:  No' has a decent line I'll make a small bet on it.  Otherwise...  No.  Won't be duped again like the Newcastle bet.  Lol.

Anyway, what about everybody else itt..?  What are your leans, picks and bets?

And oh...  Do you guys know of any EPL prediction channels at YT that are good?

These are the next set of Premier League games taking place:

MATCH DAY 7:
^{17.10 11:30} Everton vs Chelsea
^{17.10 14:00} Fulham vs Hull City
^{17.10 14:00} Man City vs Ipswich Town
^{17.10 14:00} Brentford vs Liverpool
^{17.10 16:30} Newcastle vs Aston Villa
^{18.10 13:00} Leeds United vs Man United
^{18.10 13:00} Brighton Hove vs Crystal Palace
^{18.10 13:00} Bournemouth vs Sunderland
^{18.10 15:30} Nottingham vs Arsenal
^{19.10 19:00} Tottenham vs Coventry City
_{Info: day.month. time (UTC)}

-------------------

After looking at the fixture list, I cannot see a single match that will end with a surprise result. Everton beating Chelsea, Coventry City beating Tottenham and also Leeds United beating Manchester United are not going to be surprise results. Personally, I feel Nottingham Forest do have a chance of beating Arsenal but Ipswich Town have no chance at Manchester City.

If Arsenal lose and Brighton win, then Brighton will move up to second place in the Premier League table.

[tokeweed]

^  With Arsenal, I think they're back to their winning ways for the time being.    But that's just me saying that because I have a bet on them to win straight, no handicap. 

I think Brighton also wins tbh.  So it's gonna be a tight race at the top. As for my third bet, it was supposed to be Tottenham but I just couldn't do it.  Lolol.  Maybe if I was clueless I'd do it.

I'm seriously considering Coventry chances against Totteham after what I saw against Newcastle - this could be the game that would force Totteham fans into the uncomfortable "Zerbi sacking" conversation if he loses this weekend.

You can't be playing one game a week ( no European games) and still look fatigued more than the clubs playing double games weekly.

I could go safe and play +1 handicap for Coventry or 0.25 goals + Brighton and Chelsea ML..

[tokeweed]

Yeah...  And it's less about Coventry and Lampard finding their groove but more about Tottenham sucking this season despite acquiring new players that were supposed to improve their squad. 

But we'll see.  All 4 of my little helpers picked Tottenham to win.  Let's see if their fade on Coventry is right this time.

Anyway, good luck to all your bets this weekend. 

[JollyGood]

The first game of the day has ended. Chelsea have just won at Everton and Neto scored both goals in the midday match. The first goal was just 43 seconds after the second half kicked-off and the second goal was on the 90 minute mark. I did not watch the match nor the goals but without a doubt this was a massive win for Alonso as Everton were unbeaten this season.

Chelsea have now moved up to 4th place in the table.

It's been a good day and I'm already in a massive profit from some of the early kickoff games - I'm waiting on Aston Villa win to wrap up the second $200 betslip.

Tomorrow I'm going in for -2 handicap for Arsenal and +1 handicap for Brighton and maybe add Totteham to the mix to boost the odds.

It's always difficult playing at Gibson Park, we won but lost Martinez to a potential long term injury - not very good considering we have a teenager as a backup gk.

[JollyGood]

I have never heard of Gibson Park If you are referring to Everton, it is named the Hill Dickinson Stadium or the Bramley-Moore Dock Stadium. What is Gibson Park?

As for the result, it was fantastic for Chelsea. Alonso has given the fans something to be happy about as they sit in a Champions League spot. I suppose they could have had a goalkeeper with Premier League experience to cover Martinez but that can be addressed in the next transfer window.

Lol I was sure I typed "Goodison Park" I was on Mobile and drinking after I landed some good shots today - btw I just read they moved out of Goodison Park to their new stadium this season. Now I understand why it was half empty and not fan filled as it used to at Goodison Park.. thanks anyway for the heads-up.

No, Penders is the future, Martinez was a temporary solution till when Penders is ready - this is a big test for him to show us he can be trusted with that position in the future.  He was Strasbourg first choice gk last season and he did great.

[JollyGood]

I think most Everton fans feel that they needed to leave Goodison Park in order to grow and to have nay chance of competing with Liverpool (the other big team from the same city). It will take several seasons and maybe a good unbeaten run in the Premier League or cup competition for the fans to make the adjustment to accepting their new home.

In the future, I think Chelsea will still require a backup goalkeeper with or without Martinez. Anyway, it seems as though Alonso is changing the mentality at Chelsea and that is going to make them a dangerous team this season.

There's a big capacity gap between the old and the new Everton stadium; from a 39k capacity to 52k - I think it'll take more than going unbeaten to fill that up, I mean Manchester city still struggles to fill their stadium on some match days. Whenever thy want the stadium to be filled up, they susidize the tickets and that's exactly what Everton should do if they want to fill their stadium.

Make the tickets more affordable and provide easy access to tickets.

If Chelsea get another experienced GK as a backup we'd lose Penders which is not something the owners want.

Martinez was a ''temporary'' solution?  I really don't get why he chose to help a club this ungrateful, when everything fell apart for them and the entire team was left in a state of confusion. He turned down Juventus and Inter Milan (although the Inter deal would have forced him to accept a pay cut), only be made a secondary option. Is this what he gets in return? In Short, I really don't want to discuss this.
Alonso seems to have revived from his slumber, and I'm not sure what changed since their last losing streak but with what is happening right now, the future seems bright for the club. I really wish Alonso to succeed because if he doesn't, Madrid will have all the excuses to make.

I completely forgot about that new stadium, supposedly way bigger even than Liverpool, no wonder something seemed very different there, half empty, I guess they are building for the future children of Moyes?

Martinez was never a world-class keeper IMO,,, pretty ok but if not for his psychological antics he is actually just decent, not great. Sorry Argentina

Half empty stadium, Ah Moyes!

No he wasn't. Had never been and I'm not sure what y'all were expecting from him. At 34, he has achieved a decent number of trophies for the records and you're talking about psychological antics. Leea, why does it seem like you barely even know the meaning of those words that you coined together?

Let's assume that was the case, isn't it mind boggling that he became very successful with his trickery and mind games over the last couple of years? If it's the age factor, Penders has it because he's roughly 21 now. He has more to offer to the club and I can understand that, but don't treat Martinez as trash.

I'm up a bit from winning both my bets with Arsenal and Brighton.  You think I should bet some of the proceeds on Tottenham?    My 'little helpers' say it's a winning bet but for 1.58, almost 2 to 1, dunno if I should do it. 

It's not like I'm gonna watch the match or anything.  But I do want to win a little bit more money for this match day.
