Cardiff come from behind to beat City 3-2.

Cardiff play some awesome counter attacking football. City weren't themselves, but all credit to Cardiff...deserved win

 

[thsv]

Another win,another clean sheet. 2 horse title race between Liverpool and Chelsea,you heard it here first

Even more amazing Spurs have kept consecutive clean sheets.

They need to step up though...2 penalties isn't very convincing. Well, it's only 2 games so far so we'll see.

It's more like City's midfield was poor and Joe Hart was atrocious.

Not doubt. But the based on some of the crap I've had to put up with over the years *Cough*RamonVega*Cough*AnthonyGardener*Cough*GaryDoherty*Cough* I'll take it. The last time we played at Selhurst Park we lost 3-0. And Palace still got relegated that year.

An actual football match was not played at OT today.

What's the Mata? 1 point not enough?

Right on both accounts. xD

Who'd have thunk it? Liverpool and Spurs keep perfect records longer than Man U and Chelsea. Maybe this is the year we finally do the double over Man U

Well, in a season where United and Chelsea met very early, I would've bet that Liverpool and Spurs would pick up nine points before at least one of the two.

 

[kakashi919]

Well, if Liverpool beat United Sunda, they'll win the league

Chelsea get Samuel Eto'o on a year's deal. He may not be the player that he was a few years ago but you can't dismiss his talent; he'll surely bring a lot to the team and some options. This means the Rooney deal is over at least for this year.

Apparently Messi has had some harsh words about some of his team mates in the lockers. Do you think there's any truth to this? I know it's known that he and Villa didn't have the best of relationships when he was in the team but this is a new level of bullying.

I'm not at all surprised if that's the truth. Have you seen Messi on the pitch?

Anyway, Messi's been accused of racially abusing players (the same thing Suarez and Terry were suspended for), but that was brushed under the bus because it's Messi and it's Spain.

I noticed his attitude during the match last night against Atletico and he was different to what I had seen before, but to be honest I had never really paid attention to his person before.

Anyways. Champions League draw is live right now~

I'm watching it on Sky Sports at home, it's so funny. Me and my dad are laughing

Billy Mcneill was a failure. Cruyff should be better.

Even Cruyff's having a bit of trouble.

We get Schalke, which rules out Dortmund. Awesome!

We pick up Basel as the third team in our group. Pretty good.

 

[goldb]

The opening of the balls has been as fun as the draw itself, I'm enjoying this. Cryuff seemed frustrated at one point too

 

[Imperium]

Fuck I knew it. Just our fucking luck.

I'd say the Messi thing is fake, if he wasn't Argentinian. I dunno man, we say a lot of crap like that It just seemed like some dumb jokes though.

On the other hand, I've seen a huge anti-Messi campaign these last days. "He and Neymar can't play together", "Have you seen his attitude against Atlético?"(yeah, Because Godín didn't step on a Barca player, Filipe didn't kick every leg in Barca's team, Costa didn't yell to the ref, Arda Turan didn't do a "gun" sign when he was sent off, Burgos didn't emulate Pinto's whistle technique, etc etc) and now this.

Dafuq.

Also, this


Glad to see Real Sociedad in this year's Champions. It's funny how good Vela is, yet Arsenal needs a striker.

Btw, Barca's and Arsenal's groups are so... strong.
