City was also out in group stage last year

Glad that iniesta won it and truly deserved it IMHO

I disagree with you, I don't mind goal difference to determine who should win a league because it's all about who is more consistent and better for the whole year

Never seen team defended that bad, mascherano was bad, pique positioning was disaster and busquet had a nightmare game

What a game.

Good signing for spurs, watched him against playing manu and he was fantastic. can be a good replacement for lampard for us

Eden hazard : 6 assists , 1 goal :blue scalf:

The lineup is actually as expected, RDM has done this everygame, he will play either ramires/bertrand in side that is more dangerous in this case against Ben Arfa on the right

I am really2 impressed with Swansea, it's more than just passing football, plenty of penetration all over the place with super fluid attack.

Not sure I like the signing, now we have too much players in am/winger position. Marin/Hazard - Oscar/Mata -Ramires/Moses Sturidge can also play in that position and We still have malouda.

I like the signing because he can play on the wing and as a striker. We are now loaded upfront.

Reading sat deep and did not pressure the ball that at all that is why Mikel played well, he is still very suspect with the ball (just watch city game)

A completely new formation can have a disaster impact to a team ( inter under gasperini, he changed the team from 4231 to 343)

I actually believe that if rm won ucl and city did not win epl last year, he will be city manager this season

Torres Ramires/Bertrand - Oscar- Hazard Lamp - Mikel Cole - Terry - luiz - iva After watching us in against city and wigan, It looks like we need ramires/bertrand to play. Oscar,mata,hazard,sturridge are just awful at defending. Against city after iva was red carded, we were killed on the left by clichy overlapping, against wigan without ramires to help iva, Victor Moses beat Iva again and again

I think hazard has better potential due to his dribbling skill but they are different player. Hazard is a dribbler where as kagawa more of a playmaker

Just finished watching mu vs everton in my DVR, David moyes played fellaini brilliantly, valencia + carrick were no match to him in the air. It looks like mu and us have the same problem in midfield. Kagawa looked like a very good player, good movement and pass the ball very well

I missed the first half but in the 2nd half, torres played ok. He made some good runs and in term of pressuring defense, with RDM we are not a pressure team, we will soak up the pressure and counter, so there is no point for torres to chase defender.

3 points, we did not play well but it's just first game of the season, let's just move on to reading game and Oscar looks really2 impressive as no 10, it looks he is or will be a better no 10 than Mata.

City looks impressive and why don't we sign rodwell, he looks really impressive as dm, mobile, good enough passer

Good player but do we need him ? He is more of a deep lying forward and what we need is a targetman

I actually think if we can get him for cheap, it's a very good signing. Play him as a sub when we need a goal ( saf does not want to sell him to us because this is how he want to use him )

I completely agree with you, he is probably the most complete player I have ever seen, much more complete than messi He can shoot with both feet, he is much faster, jump much2 higher, better header and better finisher. But I still think Messi is a better player because Messi has greater impact In term of the best ever, i don't like comparing player from different generation. They are all great players that's it.

Romeu + mikel will make our midfield become too static(Netherlands in euro). You need one player who is more mobile( lampard, ramires, meireles) and one that is more static.( essien, mikel, Romeu). Romeu is one option but rdm does not trust him. Essien is another option, he is just not good enough anymore. So we are stuck with mikel who lose the ball every two touches
