    9 yellows and 2 reds as well, not been a dirty game really, think some have been harsh.

    I don’t see why, apart from the money.

    For me, Germany has the best footballing product. The big games in England are always utter pish.

    I think it has the best players and the best teams. Not that a Bayern, Juve, PSG, Barca, Madrid wouldn't do well in that league but I think the top 10 English teams beat the top 10 of any other league overall. In my opinion at least. The English league has been a pretty good watch this season. You get * matches but the product has been good overall.

    Its 100% about money though. Absolutely.

    Bundesliga is a great league too. Bayern are probably the best on the planet and Dortmund and Liepzig give anyone a game

    Anybody can take points off anybody, so in that sense it’s a good league, can’t agree that the 10 best EPL teams are better than others though. The top English teams are regularly turned over in Europe and of off German teams especially.

    The beginning of the season the EPL was brilliant, some high scoring games and mad results but it’s sort of fell back into its usual pattern for me. Theres absolute quality throughout the league, even more so this season, but I always feel there’s a fear of dropping points, especially in the big games, and they end up boring as *. Maybe fans back in the stadiums will help.

    But, aye, I just find the quality of football throughout the Bundesliga to be more entertaining, football wise and also atmosphere wise.

    Depends what constitutes the 'best' league in the world. In terms of entertainment and quality of football Spanish and German tops i
    It's got more money but entertainment wise but generally it's boring as *, for me anyway. Would watch any German game ahead of EPL. Used to be right into Spanish but only really watch Barca games from their league now.

    Tierneys carried Arsenal in this game, a lot of good balls in, carrying it up the park and running into space and being overlooked. Been MOTM by far.

    Quite a harsh red for Xhaka, stupidity to get involved but hes not really done anything to the guy either. Hand on throat but nothing in it, Fred from Man U the other week heabutted a guy similarly done it but nothing much in it and got a red changed to a yellow now this is a yellow changed to a red.
