Pundits on Fox are awful, and on ESPN they're the absolute worst (though I do watch ESPN FC to see highlights). NBC really aren't that bad, I just don't think they're given enough time to actually go into the detail I would like to see for certain matches.

Praise the Son!
Really good performance, capitalised on opportunities. Get the win against Aston Villa and hopefully build some momentum for Scum, West Ham and Chelsea. Some big games. Will be interesting to see if Mason comes straight back into the team? And hopefully Son is back, but who comes out? Lamela our leading goalscorer?
Some of those pink squares should be the size of the penalty area to be truly reflective of how easy they were.
I really enjoyed the game but there was still something missing.
After having Klopp Cam last week, I had hoped every game in the Premier League would have a corner of the screen showing Klopp's reactions in real time whether he's at the game or not. It's what modern football needs to go to the next level.

Whilst yesterday was a thoroughly professional and clinical performance ... CLINICAL, us!
I just can't help but think we'd have won without Boruc's help... maybe not 5-1, but is have rathered if a GK was gonna 'have a Boruc' it would be when we play a team we might NOT have beaten otherwise... y'know, the usual suspects!
As it is, we're no doubt never gonna see a GK play so badly against us ever in the history of ever again... so maybe we should just enjoy it for what it was, a fun day out by the beach with some bawdy seaside humour thrown in for added entertainment!

I'd like to see Alli get benched for Mason and have him as a impact sub for the big games. Anyone know what is going on with Bentaleb.
Will take it for what it is. A decent result against a very weak side that have lost 3 of their best players and where low on confidence after a drubbing last week.
Was typically nervous about the game before it, "we should be hammering these" crew would be on the lurk. Haven't read back but i'm sure people were displeased with the goal after 50 seconds. But we put them to the sword and shouldn't really judge our performance on how bad they were, because ultimately we did all that was expected of us. We saw a weakness in their team and we exploited it.

So...Is every body happy? 
Guess it was more about the opponent. Bournemouth clearly weren't capable of moving the ball quick enough, so we pressed them very high
Doesn't it make a difference when players get into the box in front of goal; 64% of our shots were in that prime 'killing zone'.
Some random passing stats from the game....
We made 158 backward passes yesterday, the highest of the season so far...our lowest of 86 was against L'pool last week...make of that what you will.
Dier & Alli had pass completion ratios of 90% & 89% respectively...not sure how Poch can play Mason at the moment especially since he operates mainly on the right.
We have some decent commentators here in Denmark, luckily
I'm happy but I want to really destroy teams when we have the chance and i hope our players feel like that.
We need to be coming off that pitch pleased with the result of course but there should also be a slight feeling of disappointment that we didn't win by more.
You mean Mawlid.
Which is the birth of their prophet, which strangely enough occurs round about the same time as the Christian one
who'd a thunk it?
We had to deal with audio from the Manchester derby and muted commentary for our match. Breakfast was free though. A pint at 10 AM was tolerable.
