Everton less than convincing been bailed out by a needless penalty Brighton gave away. The promoted side looked the better team. Everton really are a one man team who sold their one man.

Just watched the MC vs Stoke highlights, Kevin De Bruyne's assist on the 6th MC goal is some next level shit.

edit: it was the 6th goal not 7th

This Stindl goal was actually so damn good. People would go crazy if this was done by Neymar or similar. Not the best camera angle though.

Palace and Chelsea are keeping the line that anyone can beat anyone in the Premier League alive. Meanwhile Man City are making it look more like La Liga.

Best passer in the game by a country mile at the moment, the consistency with which hes picking out killer passes is insane.

city is starting to look amazing this season, and not dependent on any singular player (although KDB's ability to shoot passes is hard to replace).

Anyone who had een watching belgian national team for years knows that he always had been their best player by far. Yet other Belgians were always more hyped than him.

I haven't been following the Belgian National Team that much so i can't comment but he's not always been this good at City. He was pretty much on and off in his first couple of seasons. I'd say he started showing his true marksmanship ability last season.

What an obsession with La liga. You live in the past, the level has increased a lot in the other teams since the new tv rights distribution 3 or 4 years ago. For example, Real Madrid loosed against Betis and they draw against both Valencia and Levante. In addition to that they won 2-1 to both Alavés and Getafe in even matches with many problems for them.

Talking about La liga, I'm happy that both Valencia and Betis are playing awesome and getting great results, they are two classics of the league. Last night match between them (3-6) was awesome when the match was 3-4 xDD

Europe can't come soon enough for me haha, we look good in this competition XD

Going to be watching Madrid vs Spurs here, could be a battle for top spot unless Madrid win both these games (this is the double header matchday) then Spurs vs Dortmund in Germany will be a winner takes all clash.

RM vs Spurs seems interesting. The way Real has been playing so far, I don't think it's even totally guaranteed they go through from that group. Dortmund needs to start winning games though, but they should be well capable of that.

His claim is rubbish, you are right, De Bruyne only really hit the best Belgian player conversation sometime last year. Before that he wasnt as polished or consistent as he is now. Hazard was a far better player. The potential was ofcourse talked about, but the lack of hype was expected, his style of play without end product doesnt really create any hype.

I havent been following the Belgian national team either, but if he had done something reallyyyyy worth noting we wouldve heard about it. He didnt. Besides, its what 10-20 games over 2 years including the Euro? He didnt do much there either.

I expect Spurs to take a point from RM in 2 games, and that would be game over for BVB without even needing the last 2 match days.

BVB is simply too one-dimensional at this point. Bosz has one tactic and one tactic only, and it gets brutally exposed against better teams. He's also horrible at picking the correct team sheet.

BVB is definitely one of the most dangerous clubs in Europe when fully healthy, but they don't have the depth that other clubs do, and even when healthy, I don't trust Bosz to pick the correct lineup to compete.
A sound mind in a sound body, is a short, but full description of a happy state in this World: he that has these two, has little more to wish for; and he that wants either of them, will be little the better for anything else.

Yeah Reus is still injured for Dortmund right now, who else is not their? Shame as that group looked very competitive from the draw but it seems Dortmund might have drew the short star playing both Real and Spurs straight off the bat.

If you meant the injuries, at least Pizcek (or whatever the spelling is), Schurrle and Schmelzer are out. Rode and Durm are listed as injuries too. Götze seems to be getting better again, but I'm not sure if he's 100% either.

It's funny. Nate Silver has Dortmund as a significant favorite to win the entire europa league. (like, he's only giving them a 16% shot, but number #2 on the list, Arsenal, have 6%). But from my pov, they really can't be ruled out after 2 games.. They're prolly beating apoel twice. They have a home game vs tottenham. Tottenham has 2 games left vs real, that might easily be two losses..

Of course it's unlikely (Silver gives Dortmund a 78% chance at third place), but I don't think it's time to surrender yet either.

Yeah, absolutely. In my books the group has 3 teams that can easily beat each other in a single game on a good day. All it takes is 2 good performances by Dortmund, which they're well capable.

If they do drop out to Europa League, it probably isn't their main focus by a long shot. For the first time in years Bayern seems shaky on Bundesliga and I'm fairly sure Dortmund is more interested in that title than Europa League.
