Hahaa just seen QPR's next 6 games. Hughes is on the brink. They will obviously not win at the Emirates, they might win their 2 home games but they wont get many points lol. Awesome set of games!

Problem is Harry is free...and last time he took over a club near the bottom it was Spurs and turned them right round!Hope that dont happen this time!

Mark Clattenburg has been appointed referee for Chelsea v Manchester United on 28/10/12.

Anyone but Webb and Foy I suppose.

Fuck sakes, Clattenburg is shit.

This.

Chelsea have won all 8 Premier League matches(9 if include an FA Cup game) that Mark Clattenburg has officiated at Stamford Bridge.

Hmm, feel slightly better now lol. But he still makes some very weird decisions.

True. He is a bit dodgy and after all, he was the referee that thought it was OK for Rooney to elbow McCarthy(or was it McCarthur?) at Wigan 2-3 years ago.

Also it was him last season who was the ref in our home against City - he showed a red card and we were given a penalty. Honestly, I quite like him, even in the past. He had some personal issues but still, he is above Webb, Foy and some other clowns in my personal ranking.

That's good news for Mata and Hazard, it means they wont have to constantly mark Valencia and/or Nani.

United may not play that way though. I'm sure they would have noticed the problems we have had dealing with crosses against Norwich and Spurs.

How have they been performing with that? 4 v 3 in midfield this weekend could spell trouble for us.

To be honest not so good, which does not mean anything because Fergusons Manutd is all about bad performance and great result.

They have forgot about super width (they had attack minded full backs and wingers). Alex did it because his cm duo were immensily exposed (southhampton, etc). They are reling on their "striker triangle", full backs and their defensive (but with good passing and ball control) central mids. A bit of 4-2-1-3/4-3-2-1...

As I see them: Ok keepers, decent center backs (no Vidic), good full backs (know how to defend and cross), Scholes and Carrick as CM, Kagawa a little shy recently (injured), Rooney RVP and Wellbeck handleling the job pretty well.

We should be careful with their strikers, but I fully believe we will win, I was more worried vs Spuds. What fears me is that the game might get crowded in Midfield as we both dont have real wingers!

Chelsea 3-1 Manutd

Norwich absolutely dominated that game just now, even with 11 vs 11 is was only Norwich playing. I like Norwich, they play really good football. Villa deserve to go down, they had no idea what to do with the ball once they got it so then just hoofed it up to Benteke, who played very well btw.

What you lot gonna watch at 3? not much choice to be fair, the only game that stands out is Arse - QPR.

Will probably hover over all the games tbh on soccer saturday. Thats the one i might watch though if i watch a strea i cant watch soccer saturday as because of the delay they tell you who scores before you see it, so it will probably be one or the other.
