Liverpool vs Everton - Battle of the Scousers KO 20:00
Both teams have been struggling but where Klopp seems unable to turn things round, new Toffos gaffer Sean Dyche oversaw an amazing win over Arsenal last week.
A return to business as usual, Scousers back in tune while the Toffos are facing the drop. No Dyche magic touch tonight but I hope he gets them through because I admire him as a manager. Mo Salah broke his drought with the opener, new lad Cody Gakpo scored his Liverpool debut for the other. What a daft name that is. Liverpool.
There's a PL corker for Yakkers tonight, top of the table action.
Arsenal vs Man City
Will Arteta blub like a girl if a VAR call goes against him? Will Gladioli scream at a linesman if an offside goes against him? Will Elsie receive a pass off anyone? Will Jacqui dive like Jacques Cousteau if an opposing defender tries to get near his box?
All this and more at 7:30, a City win sends them to top but Gunners still have a game in hand.
A fiesty encounter it seems. Kevin de Bruyne scored for City first but a quiet enough first half ended with tetchiness as the Gooners were awarded a penalty that really shouldn't have been. Just because City's goalkeeper smashed down an approaching Gunner hardly warranted a spot-kick. Arteta strangely didn't spit out his paella and blub on this occasion. 1-1 Second half saw City take over. Jacqui scored! But was immediately taken off because he's already got a yellow and Poop didn't want him getting another. In fact cards were flying around thick and fast. Elsie sealed a convincing win after someone actually fed him the ball. 3-1 I forgot to mention the temper tantrums. Arteta (who else?) at one point decided to take the ball when it was City's throw in. Why he's allowed on the touchline is anyone's guess but De Bruyne took exception and shoved the shyster away. The Belgian was showered with bottles at the end of the match by angry Gooner fans. It has not been their night and City go top, albeit with Arsenal having a game in hand.

Villa vs Arsenal Forest vs Man City Newcastle vs Liverpool
This post was to be more in depth but the fecking site logged me out when I hit "post" and I'm not typing it all out again. Why does it do that? So many times....
What a game! Villa looked to be nicking a draw after the Gooners huffed and puffed through most of the second half. Villa were ahead 2-1 at HT thanks to Oily Watkins and Philip Cortinaho (ex Scouser), but by 90 minutes it was stuck at 2-2. Mikel was not happy, not knowing who to blame first, but things took a turn for the better. Emily Martinez is a cheating Villa goalkeeping shyster, we've mentioned this before. Today, at 2-2, he avoided several bookings for timewasting and thus winning his team a point. Justice was done when he misjudged a Gooner ball and bundled it into his own net at 93 minutes. By 98 minutes in desperation, Martinez joins his mates upfield in a mad scramble to get level again, but the Angel Gabriel (not Jesus) escaped back up to the now unguarded Villa goalmouth and rolled the ball in to seal a great 2-4 victory. I miss The Technician so much right now.
So with Arsenal finally hitting form again, it was down to Man City to now show their credentials. What could possibly go wrong against Robin Hood's Merry Men?
Forest 1-1 Man City They blew it! After huffing and puffing to a 0-1 lead by half time, thanks in part to a Jacqui assist, all that was required was to defend this meagre advantage for another 45 minutes. Or better still pass the ball to Elsie who would do the rest. City decided on the former option, Forest dug their heels in and sure as Steve Cooper is a gurning shyster, they equalised with minutes to spare. Mikel Arteta must have thought he'd died and gone to Jesus (who is still off sick I forgot to say earlier) as it left the Gooners top of the tree by two points and still with that game in hand.
Newcastle meanwhile had not lost a PL match since Liverpool did them over last August, 17 games. What could possibly go wrong against a Scouse team on the bones of their backsides?
Newcastle 0-2 Liverpool They blew it! Without Bruno Whateverhisnameis (Brazilian bloke I think) who's off suspended for cheating, the Geordies are useless, and today they hit rock bottom. By 17 minutes they were 0-2 down. By 22 minutes they were down to ten men, sorry, players of various identities, as Nick Pope the Toon keeper forgot the rules. As Mo Salah approached with the temerity of wanting to score, Pope strayed out of his area and handled the ball to the ground. "Oh feck" he would have muttered as he remembered a keeper can only handle a ball in the box. Now when a keeper gets sent off (because obviously he did) you are allowed to bring a substitute keeper on, but you have to remove another player. And so sub keeper Dúbravka (he's a Slovak) came on. Nothing more goal wise but more misery for the Geordies as Joe Linton went tumbling in the second half and may have knackered his hamstring. He tried to come back but Mohammed Bin Salmon issued a fatwa on the infidel instructing him to go home and get better because it's all hands, well feet, on deck for the Cup Final against Man Utd. And to add to that torment, Dúbravka (of Slovakia) is cup tied and cannot play in the Cup Final for Newcastle because he was loaned out to United earlier in the season. This means the third choice keeper (who's name I forget) will be playing that final and he's not played first team football in two years. It's all going to hell in a handcart for the Arabians.
