Arsenal have had a lot of chances to even this game up. Giroud had a great chance to tie it, but couldn't do it.
Good game. Now looking forward to the United/Tottenham game at 12:30. Glory, Glory!

Giroud is a freaking bum. I'm sick of Arsenal's cheap board and there pathetic U.S. Owner Stan Kroenke who doesn't give a damn about the club and only cares about $. Not going to win the EPL w/o a striker.

I'll post a full recap of the day's action later, including my thoughts on Chelsea-Arsenal. For now, I'm going to enjoy watching Man City lose to Fulham.

If you can, chek out the being Liverpool show. It's like hard knocks. Not a Liverpool fan but it is awesome to see the behind the scenes stuff from a major English soccer club. It airs on fox soccer Sunday nights, but re-airs on fox sports south from time to time. Sorry if this info has already been posted.

I like this show okay, but so far it's a little too rosey given what is actually happening at that club. 24/7 and Hard Knocks are great because they show warts and all. The first two episodes of being Liverpool feel a little like an infomercial for the club at Anfield. "Keep Calm and Carry on" Nothing to see here.

Its 3 episodes into a 6 episode run. So far it has covered pre season, first Europa game, and game 1 of the season. I would hope it's rosy then. They did completely ignore suarez's antics during his segment though. would have loved somw "ocho cinco press conference".....i like Brendan Rogers and he cracks me up with his hand gestures. Very animated when he speaks. "Stephan Gerrard is class personified" Brendan Rogers. I loved that line and as much as I try to not like him, he is just a brilliant soccer player.

Every weekend shows me just how good the Premier League is at this point. You have your regulars like Chelsea, both Manchester's, Arsenal, and Tottenham who are playing well and then you have Everton, West Brom, West Ham, Swansea, and Newcastle who can beat anybody on any given weekend. Throw in teams like Stoke and Sunderland who aren't great, but can give teams trouble and this is makes for a very tough league.
The biggest disappointment in the whole league outside of Liverpool is QPR IMO. They have a lot of talent on their team, but can't beat anybody. I thought they added some nice pieces in the transfer window, plus they got rid of Barton, but they still suck. If Mark Hughes isn't on the chopping block then nobody is. Seems to me that QPR could throw some money at Redknapp since he is out of a job and get the team turned around. As bad as they've been, they string together a couple of wins and they're out of the relegation zone.
