I was surprised Chelsea were on neither to be honest.

Well, despite you being top of the pile there, you have only scored 1 goal more than us in the league. So... :whistling:

Not too surprise in term of overall team number. We haven't created plenty if chances but We have been very efficient in converting them

Yeah but that is slightly of a worry though. Could have problems IF we suddenly encounter issues with converting the chances.

It's because the FA love you.

True tbh we have not played really well this season but we kept getting good result and it really worries me. In one hand, winning while not playing well is a sign of a champion but I am not sure we can do that for the whole season.

@Shogun, I had a dream last night about the end of the Premier League. Everton had won and Baines had scored 14 goals, Fellaini 16 and Jelavic 24.

never in a million years. united have it with them this year. after vidic, jones and smalling return united will be hard to beat. especially now that they've signed Mark Halsley as well.

Chelsea will do well if we continue this unbeaten run a bit longer but expect us to fade when we face teams like everton who almost always find a way to stifle us

question for England fans here, why does Hodgson have to apologize to Rio? Dude isn't good enough & Hodgson is the gaffer. I was tripping out that Hodgson had to write an apology to Rio shrug.gif

He apologized because he apparently told people on the subway that he wouldn't pick Rio before he informed Rio himself :lol:

Adam Johnson - Don't join City

skysports.com

"Now, if I was a young lad, I wouldn't go to City," Johnson told reporters.

"It is excellent when a club like City come for you. Hard to turn down. But you don't actually play for the champions - you're a squad member, which is totally different.

"It's not that you're not good enough, it's just that the likes of Yaya Toure are going to play ahead of you, no matter what you do."

"I think it would only be a matter of time before senior players become unhappy.

"You can probably have too many world-class players at once - everyone wants to play and they're not happy to be squad players.

"You're going to have trouble picking a team, and leaving people in the stands. I was one of them last season.

"He (Mancini) wanted that many players in the squad. He's got to deal with it, hasn't he?"

Have to say, City are very entertaining to watch this season. Probably because their porous defence which means that games tend to be very attacking for both sides. I wish we would be playing them now because you have to think they'll get their defensive problems sorted out at some point.

Hopefully not, though you are probably right as Mancini has been switching between 3 and 4 at the back and will eventually sort it out. Hopefully their lack of clean sheets can continue and sunderland can score here, though by the looks of things they will probably need to score more than 1 to get anything out of this game, but steven Fletcher has looked dangerous this season.
