Which team are you wanting to see? Or would any EPL game do?

I'd prefer a game in one of the more iconic/larger stadiums; if a game like Brentford vs. Bournemouth was the only option I'm not sure I'd go.

Also, this is just purely a hypothetical question. I don't have a trip planned or anything but would really like to catch an EPL game someday.

Fulham will probably the most realistic place to score tickets pretty easily. Their new Riverside Stand is basically a tourist stand. The only caution I’d give is that, in an effort to combat the ground being completely taken over by away fans, they will often won’t sell you a ticket to any of the London derbies unless you have a prior purchase history.

Also, just my .02, but Craven Cottage is my second favorite ground in England after Goodison. Still somewhat old school and located in a fantastic part of London.

If United can finish with Cunha, Mbeumo, Sesko and Baleba I’ll be beyond pleased. We can push for 5th.

Not sure how I feel about this. He’ll walk into the facilities and instantly be our best player, but City are going to have to pick up the tab for some if not most of his wages for it to make sense. He’s apparently on $300k/week and our current highest paid players are only on $120k/week. If he wants playing time to try and work his way back into the England squad next summer, he’ll get all he wants at Everton.

Preseason has been underwhelming to say the least, but still hoping we can get something worked out with Southampton for Dibling. Purely based on one game yesterday, Dewsbury-Hall looks like he is going to be a good buy for us.

I hope KDH works out well for yall. I liked what I saw from him last year in the ECL where he got most of his minutes for us. Definitely has the vision to consistently get himself into good positions in the attacking third and pretty efficient finisher too.

If I was taking a vacation to the UK and wanted to see an EPL game there, how would/should I go about getting tickets?

I’ve had success with livefootballtickets.com and know others who have too. Another route would be hospitality tickets through the club or an agency (e.g. Quest Sports Travel, Ground Hopper Guides). I’ve gone both routes. Hospitality route is a great first time experience but you probably don’t want to pay for the fluff (e.g. drink/food, match day program souvenir, etc) for every match. Cheapest tickets in general will be through a local supporters club.

You couldn’t just lose the game Tottenham- You had to get my hopes up before you pulled the rug out from under me.

Absolutely. If it had been a sloppy 2-0 lead, I would be fine. They absolutely outplayed PSG for 70+ minutes then sh*t the bed.

Still, they looked good, especially on defense for 84 minutes.

It looked like we ran out of gas. Sarr fell asleep for half a second on the first goal and gave just enough space for Lee to fire a shot. Until about the 75th minute we looked impenetrable. We need quality depth (and an AM like yesterday). Kudus and the defense were bright spots. Richy’s holdup play was surprisingly effective. PSG’s subs were almost as dangerous as their starters though. We brought on three 19 year olds and Solanke (who hasn’t played in months). Please Levy, spend some damn money.

Looked very organized and dangerous from set pieces though. It may be a season full of growing pains but tactically it seemed like a good setup. I really want Frank to succeed.

On a side note, Vicario was hilariously bad flapping at penalties- dove the wrong way every single time.
