Welcome to the much-needed resumption of festivities. Please try to control one’s excitement, or at least cover one’s tumescence.
Villa and the Barcodes kick us off early (7:30, USA), and these two have each had a mighty tough summer. Isak is the straw that stirs Newcastle’s drink, and he’s thrown his toys out of the pram to try to force a lowball move to the filthy Redshite. Fuck’s sake, my mental health is bad enough without that coming to fruition. Villa haven’t done much business, either, as they try to claim their seat at the Prem “big kids” table. Boy howdy, does this have “bore draw” written all over it.
Mighty Whitey (a pre-season of almost complete stasis, per Litre) get the teevee treatment (10:00, USA), away to the Trashbirds. I enjoy watching each of these squadrons play, so at least it’s a decent choice for the neutral. Should you disagree, the Black Cats return to the top flight with a home tilt against the Hammers (Peacock). You’ll never see West Ham the same after watching season 2 of The White Lotus, that’s for sure. Will they likewise take it up the arse this weekend? MAYBE!
Spotlight Dance is City of Men gimping their way into Wolverhampton (12:30, NBC). Nobody seems to really expect much of a City-zen rebound, and that includes your humble scribe. I really want to see one, otherwise it will just be another half-hearted charge from the Gooners that falls well short (no ofence, Lowratio).
Sunday has a really great USA doubleheader, Chelski/Palace followed by Men Untied/Gooners. We plead for, nay DEMAND a return from Gov. Rhodes for this occasion. On to glory!
Monday night is Very Disappointing (because incapable of learning from past mistakes) Everton away to Leeds (3:00, USA/NBC?). I mean, Jesus Fuck. Jack Grealish?? Fuck off with that shit already. You never, ever want someone in the team who feels like he’s doing you a favour.
Queries:
- Have Arsenal sorted their attack? Did they do so at the expense of team balance?
- Will Eddie Howe’s head completely fall off at the final results of the Barcodes’ window?
- How would Chelski’s wage bill stack up, in terms of GDP if it were an Afrikan nation-state?
- Will one of the newbies finally break their duck and earn a 2nd season in the top flight?
- Is Jordan Pickford indeed a cat?
