Break Time

No proper footie for nearly two weeks, so time to reflect.
Usually fall asleep during these pointless England games, but they turned in one of the best performances I had seen in many years.
No Palmer, Saka, Foden or Kane (at the start), but the replacements were really good.
Curtis Jones' previous call ups were mainly because he was a bit part Liverpool player, but this season he actually deserved it and was probably man of the match. 
Pickford showing he's still far and away our best keeper was a close second.
Madueke, I get the feeling he wants to show off his skills and tries to beat everyone single handed at Chelsea, but played the team game last night and was really good.
Let's hope they don't blow it against Ireland.

Referee Coote paying the price for giving a penalty for West Ham, especially against Man Utd with the release of the blackmail tapes.

West Ham, Lopetegui needing to do something fast as we've been awful this season.
I called him the Spanish Moyes when he took over, but I don't think he's that good. So called 'experts' said we'd had a good transfer window? Apart from AWB, Rodriguez (on a free) and maybe Summerville when he plays the rest have not really been an improvement, and letting JWP go on loan to a rival was crazy.
Just finding it hard to like him, his press conferences and interviews are as dull as ditchwater without the humour of some of our previous managers even when they had been doing badly, thinking of Allardyce, Bilic and Moyes.
Would love Mourinho, might not play better but the interviews would be great. 😁

Anyway here's the early predictions full details.
I think I need to go back to gut instinct, instead of analysing likely results?

Premier Predictions (Week 11)

Week 11 the last one before yet another International week. 😠
6 games on Saturday, 4 on Sunday
No early games so it's a 3pm kick off, but the Liverpool Villa game is late on Saturday.

Mixed week in Europe with Rodri-less Man City getting hammered by Sporting for a 3rd straight defeat, even Haaland having a nightmare. Going to Brighton not ideal for them.
Liverpool the form team take on Villa, who's drop in form has coincided with Mings coming back (did well last season when he didn't play). πŸ€”
Arsenal with just one point from last 3 PL games and a defeat in Europe go to Chelsea.
Posting this before Chelsea play Noah's Ark FC, but they are another in-form team.
West Ham meet Everton, our away record is better over them. Will need a massive improvement to avoid another home loss.
Apart from Liverpool and maybe Tottenham expect some tight games.

Brentford v Bournemouth
Crystal Palace v Fulham
West Ham v Everton
Wolves v Southampton
Brighton v Man City
Liverpool v Aston Villa
*
Man Utd v Leicester
Nottm Forest v Newcastle
Tottenham v Ipswich
Chelsea v Arsenal
