Arsenal has a tough stretch coming up: Reds, MU, and Everton, with Newcastle thrown in. We’ll see what they’re made of. (They have an eight-game loss-free streak.)

MU is in awful form right now....you're getting them at the right time. They simply cannot defend and will not make a coaching change.

Fixed it for myself. Thanks, @LaJollaCreek.

an example of how not to play the ball when you're the last defender back, and there are two attackers closing in.

Chelsea - Man U ended in a 1-1 draw

The league played midweek matches. Man U 3-2 Arsenal really hurts the Gunners.

Good result for MU, but Maguire did get lucky with that arm tug in the box. I still have no idea why DeGea who was fine the rest of the match decided the best time to try and buy a foul was with a live ball around the box. He's been the only good thing about MU this season consistently, but he even has some of the biggest brain farts. I really hope Ralf comes in and starts cracking some skulls there. I can tell he will have an impact as Ronaldo was flying around and actually pressing people as I think he knows what is coming.

Looks like Everton is going to beat Arsenal, 2-1. Everton goals at 79’ and 92’ after trailing at halftime. Arsenal had one final chance, just wide. Now final. Better side won today.

what a shot for the win in stoppage time:


The first Everton goal was pretty cool, too. There was a rocket off the crossbar that sent the Arsenal keeper sprawling and left the goal unprotected for a long header on the fly.

Divock Origi was again the match-winner as Liverpool came from behind to conclude a perfect Champions League group stage by beating AC Milan 2-1.

Three days on from his stoppage-time heroics at Molineux, Origi started at San Siro on Tuesday night and headed in the decisive goal 10 minutes into the second half.
Earlier, Mohamed Salah’s 20th strike of the season had equalised Fikayo Tomori’s opener as the Reds became the first English team to win all six of their pool-stage matches in a Champions League campaign.
Team news
Jürgen Klopp made eight changes to his starting line-up, with only Alisson Becker, Sadio Mane and Salah retaining their places from Saturday.
Tyler Morton started in midfield, while four other Academy players - Elijah Dixon-Bonner, James Norris, Max Woltman and Conor Bradley - were named on the bench.
First half
Following a low-key opening from both teams, the Reds began to take a grip of the game and were on top - albeit without troubling Milan goalkeeper Mike Maignan - when Tomori’s goal arrived.
The former Chelsea defender reacted quickest to tuck away the loose ball after Alisson had palmed away a near-post effort from a corner.
Liverpool excelled in response, though, and Origi worked himself half a yard to fire off a left-footed snap-shot that Maignan saved.
But soon after the visitors were level.
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain showed quick feet on the edge of the area prior to unleashing a stinging low drive that Maignan could only parry and, inevitably, Salah was on hand to slam the rebound high into the net.
