    If you don't get the fetch mini you will have to be watching via a web browser.

    So for me I have to move my laptop into my living room.

    If im going to such lengths to watch the game I might as well just use a dodgy stream.

    When you then realise that the dodgy streams are 30 seconds AHEAD of Optus its game over for Optus.

      7 goals scored in the gunners/ pool game and I think 5 came from ex saints players, Mane is the man this year in my opinion lightning quick.

        Yeah, I didn't have an issues with the stream like others and love the online setup with all the different bells and whistles. Just so much easier to navigate highlights and replays of all the games.

        I don't like watching footy on my computer so I've ordered a fetch Mini too($35 for EPL at my finger tips is money well spent for me, I'm saving the $20 a month I used to spend on BeIn too). According to guys on other forums this is the way to go in terms of reliability and quality of picture. Plus you can watch it on the TV.

        The 30 second/1 minute lag isn't something that bothers me.
        The curse is dead.

          Watched a bit Saturday night , and the stream froze a few times .
          Lucky I already had Optus broadband, so not paying extra .

            Wide open with both sides having starting players missing. Good game but (they always are) Manè is a cracking player and I've got a feeling Klopp has high hopes for him. Coutinho's free kick to beat Chec was brilliant. Poor Chec didn't have a good day he crashed his car leaving.

              I got up at 5 and watched the replay on fullmatchandshows their coverage starts immediately after the game for free. It's alright. I haven't made up my mind yet, still got time Liverpool are on SBS next two weeks so I'm waiting to see reviews on everything. I have a VPN but I'll wait and see.

                I stream from the iPad onto Apple TV I've got the old one they are pretty cheap now I think.

                  I thought we were pretty ordinary first half and were lucky to be 1-1. The four goals were top shelf though. But I still have to cover my eyes whenever someone runs at Moreno or Lovren. Would prefer Sakho to Lovren and a draught horse to Moreno..

                    Yea agree on Moreno, I don't know what he is thinking sometimes? The space he gave them for their first was ridiculous, he nearly gave a pen just before the one he did get as well. At least we have Milner to come in for cover for now.

                    I was happy with Kavlan. We will definitely go with Sakho and Matip when they are good to go. Sturridge will fit in this side very well.

                    Agree with the first 45, we were terrible.

                        Good win first up. Quality goal from Diego and the defence and midfield looked solid.

                            He gets targeted because hes a dirty player who is always about to snap and just cant help creating controversy. Which is sad as there is a quality CF in there. He's has 20 score involvements ( 13 goals and 7 assists) in his last 20 games.

                            A player i struggle to warm to, kind of like when we had Bazza here at the Dogs. As long as he keeps scoring I'll put up with his shit.

                              Solid start from United . Zlatan's headed goal was one of beauty.

                                Mourinho don't waste time. He'd make an excellent Gold Coast coach.
                                They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.
