Oh Rodgers...

Yap not really sure why.

Early last year city was devastating, i was extremely impressed. Kolarov and richard bombed forward silva was just killing every team but since then i feel that their offense does not have any fluidity

Manu in ronaldo era was just devastating in counter, this manu team can still score but I just don't feel scared whenever they attack/counter

Exactly how I feel.

ManCity`s problem is called Mancini and his stupid 3-5-2. Manure`s problem is the lack of another Ronaldo to create chances (Young and Nani arent exactly the same, lol).

I believe we can be as dominant as 2005-09 if we do our transition properly!

Great goal from hatem.

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Another wonder goal by Ben Arfa. The man seems incapable of scoring ugly goals!

[Jase 43,479]

Ben Arfa's goal did take a bit of deflection which led to it looping over Schwarzer.

What an exciting match!

That's the kind of game that I would been shitting myself watching if Chelsea were playing.

Goodness knows how many times the players hit the post!

Newcastle are really in trouble now. Won only 1 of their last 7 league games and sit only 4 points above the relegation zone now. Their next 5 league matches - Man City(H), QPR(H), Man United(A), Arsenal(A) and Everton(H).

Giving Pardew an 8-year contract looks like a masterstroke right now..

And oh, Fulham face QPR at Loftus Road this weekend.

Alan Pardew and his eight year contract.

God, those are some tough fixtures coming up for them. They're lucky Ben Arfa is back though.

That 8 year contract gets funnier and funnier each game they lose. Imagine the compensation they would have to pay if they were to sack Pardew though. They would probably be better off buying a couple of players.

[Shogun 721]

I'm sure there'll be a few loop holes in the contract to be fair. Probably more a statement of intent than anything.

It seems like there's a racism case in this league, every week now. Smh.

There's another one? What is it this time?

[Sheva. 5,373]

There's another one? What is it this time?

Just saw that there were four incidents aimed at Bassong this weekend.

[Corner 456]

Just saw that there were four incidents aimed at Bassong this weekend.

Ah yes. Forgot about that one. As horrible and incorrect as it is, there won't be as big a deal made about it as some other cases because he's not a Chelsea/United/City player. Fuck the media.

my take on Sundays derby....

A FOOTBALL business has been outperformed by a rival company with varying resources

Each team of football workers wore appropriately-coloured football kits

One was slightly more efficient at outputting its product than another, who were competing for a revenue stream called the Premier League.

Sundays match was controversial because the losing company was founded in the same location as the winning company, whose American owners had borrowed hundreds of millions of pounds then siphoned off any profit for themselves. Whereas the other company was owned outright by an Arab consortium as a plaything..

Over 4000 customers of the one business showed their dislike for the other one by travelling to pay money to sit in its stadium complaining about the fact it’s only interested in money. The supporters of the other business duly obliged and showered some of the other business employees with coins as a ‘goodwill’ gesture.

Employee Robert Van Persie scored a goal as per his employment contract, which was enough for his employers to win.

Manchester Franchise FC team leader Alex Ferguson said: “Every little boy dreams of maximising revenue for a business that owns a patch of grass.

“In a few weeks time we’ll go to Swansea to try and earn some more money for our greedy bosses.”

Arsenal losing to Bradford City while playing a full strength team

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Could've been 2-0 to Bradford; off the line. Arsenal are hilarious
