PSG got the same ridiculous penalty vs Dortmund yesterday and nobody bat an eye.

I’m sure some did, I just happened to be watching the United game

Punishment just doesn’t fit the crime, if there even is a crime in the first place.

For me it wasn't even the worst penalty I have seen this week. That belongs to the Gordon penalty for Newcastle against Brentford.

I hate penalties where a striker jumps in front of a defender/keeper, does not touch the ball but throws themself to the floor and is given a penalty. I thought Gordon fouled Flekken. However, there seems to be an idea that strikers always have the ball so it is always a challenge on the striker and never a challenge by the striker. I find it baffling and inconsistent - if a defender had done that to Gordon then Gordon would have wanted a penalty.

So bayern just beat bochum 7-0 in the 5th round of Bundesliga. Last season they met in round 3, also 7-0. In 21/22 they met in round 5, also 7-0. Funny.

Kane with a hat trick also. Not remotely surprised he has had a great start, he has been one of europe's top strikers for years and he is exactly what bayern missed last season.

I wonder if he keeps this up will it shut people up about Kane not being a top player?

Hey, probably not but one can hope!

It’s pretty scary to think Bayern have a genuine number 9 who can also be a creative pivot with Sane/Gnabry/Musiala making runs off him

Yeah, almost as if Choupo Mouting was not good enough to replace Lewandowski. Who would have thought.

you are saying spurs ends up with 80+ points this season? Not saying they definitely won't but I'm doubting it!

No because Liverpool is strong again. We wont have 3 teams with 80+

But considering what I have seen I can see Spurs finish above Arsenal

Newcastle with 8 different goal scorers vs Sheffield United.

That is a premier league record!

Yeah my friend was telling me every goal "this has to be a record right" haha, after there less than "optimal" display in front of goal in the san siro, that was a very good way to bounce back.

Brest sitting top in France, with Nice second. Cool to see such a minnow doing so well, hopefully they can keep it up

I think their xG is actually pretty high, probably somewhere around 15 at this point. I don't know if it's just the stats being misleading or if their finishing is lacking really bad. Probably a bit of both.

Chelsea just don't have a clinical finisher. Their overall team is pretty solid for controlling the ball and finding chances, but no one can convert. Mudryk and Jackson are awful.

I think Spurs will be a pretty good team this season, candidates for top 4. I think Liverpool vs Tottenham next week is going to really show if one of these teams are frauds/getting lucky. I'm still a little concerned about Liverpool's slow starts and inability to get clean sheets.

Its not just their finishing, but they don't have someone who can consistently score from outside the area. This makes it easy for teams to park the bus and they just don't seem to be able to score in that situation.
