However Agüero with his third straight penalty miss (in what is a really terrible penalty).

And then he gets to take it over again because the goalie jumped out too early. Lolz.

Was actually because the player that made the clearance was in the box early. Much better than calling it on the goalie imo.

I'm on holiday in Bali and I managed to convince my fiance (Yeah the it's not you it's China conversation never happended) and her family to have dinner in a sports bar that I already checked had the City game. I think I only got away with it because they also had good wifi and Chinese girls can be indefinitely destracted by selfies and the internet (/Chinese intranet). Most people would think been allowed outside free internet would allow them to explore all kinds of things they cant experience back home. But the reality is because they have no idea or understanding outside of the Chinese Intranet they never search or find anything else when they leave the country and experience free internet. My fiance haslike 5 friends on facebook so she just ignores it and posts crap back to her thousands of 'fans' in Cina (All Chinese girls think they are special and have thousands of followers on random Chinese apps.) Anyway I successfully watched the game, I think that's the point.

City looked pretty dominant the score line feels unfair and maybe like it flatters them. But in reality where West Ham ever in that? I don't want the Premier League to go the way of havong a few dominant teams. Its meant to be a league where anything can happen and anyone can beat anyone. But outside of my personal agenda maybe that;s not really a reality anymore and City can dominate teams in the Premier League as much as Barca can in la Liga or Munchen in Germany.

Interesting to see VAR in action. It looked pretty smooth today.

edit: I'm drunk. Not going to check the spelling. Just offer a discalimer.

Eh the premier league almost always had a large gulf between the top 4/6 that dominated the rest. Only once in a while when a smaller team actually wins or draws the nonsense of "can't take a week off" or "everyone can bet everyone" starts.
What makes it more exciting is that at least theres not just 1 team (Germany/italy/France) or two teams (spain), but potentially six different teams that can compete for the top.

VAR did fantastic, everything that was done was right but it still gets tons of hate, apparently because it was too correct and we'd rather have offside goals if its too close or something. Annoying

Perisic to Bayern apparently 99% done, 1 year loan with option to buy for less than 30 million. He definitely adds some depth since he's their first offensive signing after losing Ribéry, Robben and James but honestly this just screams 'placeholder' to me.

There's less than a month left in the transfer window and even with Perisic Bayern's squad is just worse than last season's, less than a week before the Bundesliga opening match. After public statements that they want to do better in UCL again. Dortmund has done a much better job so far at improving the squad.

Mcginn gives Villa the lead! Spurs with all the ball in the opening 8 minutes but a 45 yard long ball over the top and Mcginn makes it 1-0 haha, nuts.

If this is the Harry Kane that says he intends to go to Real Madrid, then he has some bad news coming his way...
