Dang didn’t realize there was Europa today. I’m gonna tune in to that if I can.

Didn’t take long for Marquinhos to have a positive impact.

In honor of the EPL and all of the lower leagues, RIP to the Queen.

I’m guessing current games will keep going since they are already being played, but looks like this PL matchweek may get delayed.

Some people are talking like the league may go on hiatus until early October. HTF are they going to cram those fixtures in around the WC?

October?? That’s a bit extreme. That’s 3-4 matchweeks you have to fit in an already busy schedule with an already weird schedule due to the WC. Yeah, that won’t be great.

There’s no way. Maybe this weekend gets delayed, but till October? Might as well roll this season into the 23-24 season.

So after looking at the calendar, it would actually only be two match weeks if they came back Oct. 1. This weekend, next weekend, and then the following weekend is an international break.

Will probably be what ends up happening. This weekend seems almost certain to be postponed, and I’m pretty sure her funeral is set for next weekend, so hard to imagine those games being played either.

This is going to help Chelsea more than anyone, gives them more time to prepare with the new manager.

2 matches is still going to create some more congestion but better than 3-4 I guess. It would be even better if it’s just this week though. Let’s hope for that.

I’m not too upset about Potter getting a few extra days to prep with new team but I’ll miss getting to watch the games this weekend.

I don’t see UEFA canceling champions league matches next week though so will only get a few extra days. Still helpful though.

You are right, I was referring to EPL.

I’m curious how quickly Brighton moves to replace Potter. If they can pull Knutsen from Bodo/Glimt, Sign. Me. Up.

One is not like the others today….

Going to help Everton as well. DCL should be fully fit after the international break, and possibly Pickford as well.

Looks like Brighton are trying to chat with De Zerbi and well as Knutsel. I would be pleased with either of those hires. Both would bring some welcome different tactical styles to the league.

Diego Costa headed back to the PL. Could be entertaining.

One of my favorite non Arsenal players.

One of my most disliked players.

Since we don’t have any Premier League this weekend, I have an assignment for everyone.

I want you to make your all time favorite XI.

But there is a catch….

1) Only players that have played for the team you support. (If you have more than one team, just pick one)
2) They have to be players that have been active since you started watching. (For example, I can’t pick Henry from Arsenal)

Hope to see some of your answers.

*It doesn’t have to be a team from the EPL if you support a team from a different league, that’s fine.

Love this and hate this haha. Going to be weird to see him in Stanford Bridge again.

I will have to think on this one. For sure a thought process for some of those that support smaller clubs.
