2024-2025 Premier League Virtual Pub Thread
Since the season is two weeks old already and nobody else started a new thread, here goes.
It was good to see Arsenal get last year's monkey (Aston Villa) off their back last Saturday on the road.....

The first international break is upon us.
Declan Rice's red card in the Arsenal/Aston Villa match looked bogus to me. The Villa player clearly threw the ball at his foot as he was walking away with his back turned, at least on my TV. If those two points wind up costing Arsenal the championship, I will not be a happy camper. Liverpool looks surprisingly good for being under a new head coach. Man City, well, they're still looking like the horse to beat in 2024-25.....

I don't understand the allure of US college football. It isn't big here, and Army plays a few towns away from us.
Seriously though, that's why they invented DVRs and streaming. The ManU game is on USA network which I don't have, so I have to wait until Sunday morning to watch the replay on Peacock.....

On Saturday/Sunday morning, I press the power button on the Kerig, then press 550 on the cable box to tune into USA and watch whatever game is on.

As an Arsenal fan, I'm not happy that two of their games so far this season were decided by referee yellow->red cards. Even so, Arsenal managed to hold off Man City on the road for the entire second half and into stoppage time with only 10 players on the pitch. The title chase is going to be interesting again this season for sure.
Seeing Aston Villa in the chase is an interesting change. I watched most of the Everton match, and thought that they played better than their current position at the bottom of the table.....

great thread idea, although my mighty chelsea have fallen off these recent years. beginning of this season I am optimistic of a top 4 finish. I have been impressed with Nottingham Forest thus far.
