For all of the money EPL teams have spent, the league is not very good, not at all.

if you told me Man utd was put together with x players and an influx of 300mil worth of players, i would laugh. Same with Chelsea and other big spenders.

What a horrible ROI for those buys. They definitely need better scouting.

And getting a spot in top4 isn't anything to pat ur back about. For all the money spent, your team has to be mediocre to not make top4.

But hey, keep spending

For pure quality it pales in comparison to La Liga & the Bundesliga. But hey at least City & Liverpool play exciting football.

Morata probably shouldn’t go down after a gust of wind but oh well

Defender bit on the crossover, morata went around, defend her had to pull him back. Thats a penalty and would have been a foul in the middle of the field. Im the first one to say frick morata, but if its a foul at midfield, its a penalty in the box.

Not a penalty, shouldn’t have been a yellow.

That would be my middle ground negotiation. Morata went down easy, but if no one gave that ref a heads up about carding willian for another iffy challenge that didnt deserve a card, then this seems like part of tCampaign

he definitely grabbed his shoulder but I think “pulling him back” is a bit of a stretch. the problem is he’s looking to go down in the first place. his only intent is drawing a foul, not trying to put the ball in the net. sure it’s probably a pen more often than not but it’s hard for me to justify it in this case



can a second yellow be removed post-match? because he definitely shouldn’t have been carded for it

All you have to do is tell me if thats a foul at midfield. It is 1000% of the time. Damn sure wouldnt be considered simulation. That was a bad card, and closer to a penalty than a card. You can look on the chelsea board, I hate morata.

And one could make a case that willians challenge was closer to a penalty than not. And damn sure shouldnt have been a card. For all the praise the announcers gave the ref I think he botched those two cards.
