Every time I see Kanté he's amazing, can't believe we weren't in for him. Signing of the season.

Yeah. His passing is so underrated. Way better than people give him credit for.

West Ham is terribly unlucky here, will have a good season again.

Conte is going outshine Pep.

I'm a big Wenger fan but look at Conte's passion....

Fabregas still not coming on

heard he might be going to juve

Reports from Spain speculated that he might be forcing his way to Madrid.

Juventus does make sense given that Perrerya is going to Watford.

Fabregas to Madrid would the hilarious.

It would certainly close the circle of cuntiness.

It'd be amazing. The guy really is the worst. And what then, beck up to Modric?

He would do really well too at that dead, slow league. I mean, Totti is still a thing there.

Yeah it'd suit him down to ground. I guess going into his 30s it makes sense. His career peaked while he was here, he has some medals but they were won for him by others.

I don't think the combination of Matic and Kante will work in the long term. It's too rigid. Chelsea looked solid but with a bit more composure on the ball, West Ham could've nicked a draw. They were too careless with the ball and paid the price.

Totti's one of the all-time greats though. Cesc is just a slow bellend with a great final ball. He'd get found out in Serie A where tactics are a lot more important. He probably wouldn't even start for Juve. He's not better than Pjanic.

Yeah, no chance he'd start for Juventus, Pjanic is way better than him. Probably the best transfer this summer, to think he went for the same fee as Bolasie, Gameiro or Arkadiusz fucking Milik is mind boggling

That's not a real argument though, Giggs was a thing in the EPL at 40 too and Totti is ten times the player he is.

That said I agree with Klaus, Cesc's biggest weakness always was his tactical naivety which would be exposed in Serie A. Real is ironically probably the best fit for him, in Kroos they play a slightly bigger version with a slightly weaker final ball

Noticed Pierre Hojberg is starting for Southampton tonight, I thought he was supposed to be an elite level talent for Bayern a few years back. Anyone know what happened with him?

Vidal//Alonso/Thiago happened.

Intrigued to see how Pogba does. Bet he has a nervous game. Ibra to do the damage.

Pogba with 2 misplaced passes in 3 minutes.

Southampton have had the better 25 minutes. So I'm betting United to break the deadlock soonish then.
