Fwiw...just got email from peacock service saying I get free three months as an Android user. I'm sure they have free three months for any kind of user, so check your inboxes.

Hmm, do I verify my email address and get on their mailing list for 3 free months (which won't include any footie)?

When is the EPL starting up again? I just did it in case it goes away...wasn't thinking about the games tbh. I think they have other content available.

Not set in stone yet, but with the transfer window going until Oct. 5, I'm guessing early September is most likely.  I've heard Sept. 12 being thrown around.

Also it's included if you're an xfinity customer. Problem is I stream xfinity through Roku and Comcast/NBC is in a showdown with Roku so no Peacock app on Roku

 
Van Aanholt down for Palace, collided with Martial after the goal and landed hard.  Stretcher is out.  Hes sitting up, must have landed hard and awkward.

 
I do like Zaha, still fighting.  Wish he had a better chance at United.

Bruno was all over the place today putting in an effort but struggling.  Even on a bad day he still makes them go. 

Martial with another top effort.  Rashford looked good. Fosu-Mensa did well on the left.  Greenwood stiggled

Team was sloppy and looked like they were trying too hard to make the precision pass come off.

Bruno really should have scored before Martial finished it off.  You are right though - he still helps push them forward even when he's off.

He really should have.  He is one of the few that will give away a ball and go chace it down.  The guy works his #### off and even when the passes dont come off right, he still is in the right place and gives you what you need.

Have to give Pogba props too.  He was stripped easily early, but at the end of the game he was the one dictating, getting on the ball and making sure they saw this out.  Happy to see that.

I had read before the game that greenwood had a knock. Based on the article, there was concern about him even playing...so be happy he was out there and then given the chance to rest.

Yeah he got cleated above the ankle in the previous game (was after he got fouled by one player, passed the ball and another cleated him, should have been a red).  Was surprised to see him playing.  He did look off so it wasn't bad to sub him out, it was bad who they put in.  James would have been a better option.

With Lingard on, United loses balance across their front 3.  He is usually out of position, has no eye for the pass or the goal.  With James you at least get someone who can run in behind and whip a cross in.  And his 3 goals and 6 assists are 9 more then Lingard has in 2 seasons.

 
David Luiz will have his bone headed plays and poor showings from time to time, but he'll also have games like today, where he's just excellent.

Less than excellent in the first half...but yeah- when they packed it back, he was great. Great ball through that Auba should've finished early though.

Thought Tierney and Lacazette were both incredible the whole game...and Auba of course.

Still question MCs late game plan lofting balls across to the towering Silva and Sterling to win.

 
Leicester are in a tough spot now.  I thought at 2-0 they would play it close and try to salvage a draw.  Now I’m not sure what they are thinking.  They need to stopping pushing so high up and hope to get 1-2 back.  

 
Leicester will feel a bit hard done.  On the balance of play, they have been better.  But Spurs have been proper ####s and been more clinical on the counter.
