With all the extra time to kill... did you touch my drum set?

Aston Villa has a competition each month on their website where people go and vote for goal of the month. They canceled it because they didn't score a single goal in October.

Ouch.

Galatasaray fans, once again, threw flares onto the field & also blew up sound bombs. --- Edit: Apparently they threw flares INTO the Dortmund section as well.

So... when will Galatasaray just not be allowed to bring fans to a game?

It's bad, very bad.

As much as I don't like either team, this liverpool v. chelsea game looks to be a very entertaining one.

[Avyran]

Surprised that Liverpool's been able to keep up with Chelsea defensively. Lots of giveaways from Liverpool, but they're playing well enough that both sides seem to deserve at least a point so far.

[Rocco]

Handballs are perfectly legal.

[PghSkins]

c'mon Hammers

[columbia]

That was so disappointing to watch Liverpool lose to Chelsea.

[count2infinity]

Tottenham are not very good right now.

[canaan]

Thanks for that, c2i. i wasnt aware.

Seeing Southampton & West Ham in the top 4 is great. I'm hopeful Southampton can keep up for most of the year, though I expect West Ham to start falling off soon.

[Kraftster]

Ugh. Why not fail to lock it down twice in the same week.

I'd love to post a video of Christoph Kramer's incredible own goals vs Dortmund, but it's impossible to find a decent one.

Here's a GFYcat link for it as well. Big HD version.

-- Edit: Couple other gfycats from the EPL weekend...

Strange play by Tim Howard to preserve a tie.
Sigurdsson's great freekick against Arsenal.

Thanks!

I think Pajtim Kasami gets my vote.

[tifosi77]

For me, it's Cahill ahead of Rodriguez with van Persie third. These are all great goals, but given the stage and level of competition, those three get the nod.

[MalkinIsMyHomeboy]

Compared to the others, difficulty-wise Cahill's wasn't that extraordinary. I would say Van Persie, Rodriguez, then either Ibrahimovic or Costa.

[tifosi77]

I'm for Cahill's as much for the cross as I am the strike volley. Also because I'm a Spain supporter and was still reeling from the first match, so it was good to see Holland get a handful from the Roos.

[largegarlic]

I'd vote for Kasami as well as far as difficulty goes. He took that ball down perfectly at full speed and nailed it into the far top corner without breaking stride. If you're taking the stage and importance into consideration, maybe Van Persie or Rodriguez.

Greece lost 0-1 at home to the Faroe Islands.

Rainieri is a turd sandwich.
