Spurs lost me 300 quid today for fucks sake if their games ended at 80 mins they would be top of the league. Unbelievable

Just saw the stats in the Guardian match report. Spurs have conceded 10 goals in last 15 minutes in the league this season and thus, dropping 14 points as a result. Would have been sitting top of the table by 1 point otherwise.

It was the same when he was our manager.

Indeed. Nothing new.

Just rewatched the Manchester derby. ManU will probably regain the title, because City are to shit to make the best of that personell. Should have won this game. Rooney was twice so lucky. The first goal it was a brillant finish, but how can a defender just jogg off, when he hits his shot. He is covered by two men, one can chase him and the other should cover the first defender, not jog beside him. Terry would have anticipated and stopped that shot instead of switching off after the shot has been fired. The second is typical ManU goal. But wtf is David Silva doing, just standing around. Kolo Toure is nowhere near Rooney, so Silva should no only half-heartedly track back but help to double Rooney. Btw Hart is so overrated. He was not at fault for any of these goals, but in this kind of game, Cech would have pulled off one unbelievable save that would have changed the game. The people are wanking about the van Persie goal, but it was going down the middle before it was stupidly defelcted by zabaleta. U either block a shot or u let it go for safety, but deflecting a ball into the danger zone is never right.

Surely we're not in the tittle race anymore?

In 2011 when we played united at home we were something like 10 points behind them and it was the end of February. We ended up coming pretty close that year. Technically, we still have a chance, but it all depends on a slump by united or injury to key players, namely RVP..

Henry on his way back to Arsenal on loan, again.

What's with AVB and conceding late goals, lol.

A little bit of loss of emotional control and lacking in defensive solidifcation.

TBH with the form and lack of options of our forwards, its something i would have not minded us considering if his allegiance to Arsenal didn't make the move impossible.

Just watched MOTD again and i LOL at the Spurs fans who think Lloris is better than Cech, Petr is on another level to him completely.

I have just realized after watching Manchester derby how awful top team in EPL have been this season.

Our mourihno/ancelotti teams or Manu ronaldo era will win this EPL this season in landslide

True but in 2011 we had experienced players who had been playing together in the PL for years. That kind of comeback takes PL experience imo. Take Cech, Terry and Cole out of the starting XI and you are left with no one with more than 2 years experience in the PL.

Man United fans' chant -

"THIS IS HOW IT FEELS TO BE CITY, THIS IS HOW IT FEELS TO BE FAKE. THIS IS HOW IT FEELS WHEN YOU SOLD YOUR SOUL TO THE SHEIKH!"

I wonder how it feels to be prostituted to the Glazers, then?
