The first was him reading the situation and making a really good strike but the second one was about him being a beast and able to beat two people to a header. Not 100% why the goalie wasn't able to punch it away but it was still utter magic from zlatan.
A wise man will say that he knows nothing. We're gona party like its 2752 Hail Dark Brandon

I still say goal 1 is 100% a foul and will argue that forever as the guy jumping clearly stops and looks at oppnent and just jumps into him.

Great finish of course but holy heck they have VAR in MLS too!

Sevilla really deserved to win today, they played better. But they bottled it the last 2 minutes of the game and draw. Muriel is so bad at finishing, I don't know why he plays instead of Ben Yedder.

Ibrahimovic is going to be so good in MLS.

Muriel probably cost them atleast 2 goals. I mean the terrible shooting is one thing, but the decision making was so aweful.

Pique had some brain fart moments aswell though. Wasnt a very good game from him.

Klopp says that Mane's first yellow card wasn't a dive because there was contact. Bullshit! You should always be booked for diving. Even if there is contact, even if there is a foul. It should be possible for the ref to give a penalty and still book the striker for going down like a pussy. (In this case there was contact but no foul, so he was right to book Mane for his lets face it very poor acting.

The second one was even worse. You don't make the call or decision as a player. You can't grab the ball because you think there was a foul and you especially can't do it if you are diving in the first place. Mane should have been sent off today and he should be at this moment having a long look at what a disgrace he was. He should have been sent off for two blatantly obvious dives and deliberate handball.

Salah one chance one goal. Liverpool looked poor and didn’t deserve to win.

Muriel and the coach have the same agent, I'm not kidding.

Apparently that was Tottenham's first victory in Stamford Bridge over Chelsea in 28 years.

sigh, what a fall from grace. No idea what is going to happen but all you can do is sit back and watch. How we went from 1st to 10th, to 1st, to probably 5th if we are lucky is just so weird.

If Arsenal sneaks in 5th, this is going to be interesting.

It's so lovely to see Chelsea fall when they keep making fun of Arsenal.

I like to back the coach when the club has been unreasonable with their backing, but I think this season conte has brought it on himself.

1. Persisting on bakayoko which caused us so many points

2. Stupid false 9 or playing so scared against top sides

3. Alienating/getting rid of luiz/Costa/matic

4. Sending so many youths/backup on loan, because he doesn't do rotations

So much more....

[Edit]

Actually I think for Conte's system, kante doesn't fit too well. He is not a 1 man midfield destoryer like maybe casemiro. Not that kante is playing anywhere poorly, but his style and size requires a powerful partner or a 3 man midfield to dominate the centre. Fabregas can't help him. Ideally bakayoko would but he is so bad. If only we are playing with a back 4 so that we have a spare man to help him out...

it can be either, but it's always easier to replace the coach than the problematic players. in any case the time of coaches staying for long stretches of time has passed, coaches have less power than before; they mostly just run training sessions and pick the lineups now.

besides after a years of success something has to change becuz complacency or lack of inspiration starts to creep in. that's why Guardiola only stays 3-4 years max.

There has been a suggestion (and I can’t remember who was saying this) that Abramovich realizes he can't compete with Manchester City and the days of big money coming into Chelsea are maybe not over but declining. They want to build a more sustainable model and it will be much harder for them to do that and still compete for titles and the Champions Leagues.

That has been the case for the last 8 years since FFP came into play. When FFP came into play Roman moved to adhere to those rules and focus on getting money to secure us a new stadium to help us compete with the bigger teams. However stadium is taking so long to get going because our fans didn't want to leave Stamford Bridge due to CPO (chelsea pitch owners) voting unanimously to not leave Stamford bridge, which put the plans back another 12-18 months. Now we finally have plans but just finalizing it with the councils and what not before we can start.....when we start it is also going to take 2 years to do! So yeah we practically turning into Arsenal due to stadium restraints xD But major issue is when Arsenal did that Spurs and Liverpool were shite so they always got 4th place, where as we are doing it when there is genuine copetition in top 6.
