Still, Shaw comes with much more PL experience and wouldn't fumble playing for a big side given the opportunity. From what I've seen he is more mature than most 20 year olds.He also gives us another HGP. Makes him the better option.

All this talk about Rodriguez amazes me. Even if he signs, he will take a time frame to adapt to the physicality and rhythm of the PL considering his age and lack of experience, Shaw on the other hand is proven PL material. The extra money paid is going to be worth it. Anyone other than Shaw is a step back considering Manures are trying to pry him away from Soton as well.

Ooo....too much information in one page. Agree on everything except the Lampard part. Talent wise, he might be in par with Gerrard but his goalscoring finesse makes him the better of the lot. He and Beckham will surely make my all time dream team.

Talking about Becks. The best free-kick taker in the world. and maybe even the best crosser of the ball.

That is a better goal. I'll make sure to rub this one in their faces the next time any Gooner shows me their team-goal crap.

Don't know what to make of this. They call it te famous team goal but it seems to me more like Giroud-Wilshere goal. The goal itself is pretty over-rated considering Wilshere got atleast 1 lucky touch but the intend was there.

That look on Ashley face says it all

He just made his first impression at etihad- first start for Chelsea

Priceless

And thank you Portugal for Mourinho as well.

About time he gets a 100,000+ weekly wage. Can't believe Azpi's earning less than McEachran and Chalobah.

C'mon man, Fulham is guaranteed 6 points every season.

Almost looked like a world-class CDM last night, all thanks to Demichelis. Best display by the pivot I've seen in a long time and I'm pretty surprised that Ramires was not in there.

Was seemingly disappointed at the Etihad from what I made out from City's tunnel cam- last to come, first to go. He already said that he wont be a passenger at the club and I'd be surprised if he decides to leave but, like didierforever said Matic being cup-tied means he still has a lot of time to play a huge role for the side. #Legend

Before Matic, we wanted someone to partner Ramires and now that Magic has arrived, we suddenly want someone else to replace Ramires. Still or best CM right now.

Absolutely. Back to transition again when they where showing some signs of progress, long-term

It's all about the technique these days.William has got a mean cross especially coming from a 7-8 o'clock position to swerve the ball into the crowded area from 30+ yards out Direct FK from that sort of range should be left to Luiz or Lamps, if he is playing, since only those have the confidence atm to go for it and the technique is quite accurate as well. Closer to the goal, I'd go with Oscar or Hazard. And we do miss Mata at corners so much. Lamps at corners is the next best thing we have with Willain not providing that extra bit of magic like we had with Mata. Is it just me or are FK/Corners from left footed players more aesthetic?

When you are a not-so-big side like Swansea, you need to have some sort of patience and belief in your manager especially when you had previous successes. Laudrup deserved more time.

Welcome to the forum. KTBFFH

We just cannot let all that hard work go up in smoke against Newcastle. Without Cabaye and Remy, any PL side can beat the Magpies. After Etihad, there is no way anyone from our back four and Matic are not starting. Hazard, Oscar and Willian are pretty much auto-fill from now on. Rami needs to get a rest and an early appearance from Schurrle. .....................................................................Cech........................................................................ ..Ivan.............................................GC...............................JT...............................................Azpi... ..............................................Lamps..........................................Matic.............................................. ....Willian.........................................................Oscar....................................................Hazard......... ......................................................................Eto'o....................................................................................

Watch and learn Barca.. This is how to beat the "mighty" Citeh.

Cahill.....You are a fucking Wall

Oscar instead of Rami and this game could have been over. Early change, perhaps, of similar sorts might do the trick and bring Mikel on after extending the lead.
