Liverpool played like shit on defense as well against the Spurs. Pepe bailed them out with a couple brilliant saves against Keane. I do think Liverpool was robbed of that penalty kick though, especially since the ref had been calling fouls and giving cards like it was Christmas. No consistency there at all.
And I'm still irritated about the Alonso sale, not a great time for it IMO.

I normally go for whatever team has US nats playing for them, but Everton played such pathetic, ugly soccer I found myself cheering for Arsenal to demolish them even more. Allowing two headers from unmarked players? Indefensible.
Also, no draws opening weekend. How weird is that? I actually had a quick laugh when I opened up the table and saw Burnley, Wolverhampton (who?), and...Everton in the relegation spots.
