Its hard to believe he played 20 games two seasons running in the Prem! Less hard to believe is he only scored 1 goal, so maybe not quite their main man 😀 He's scored 12 league goals in his last 8 seasons and 5 of those were last year. Quote

Poor lad has only had a few gazillion to strengthen his squad. I've been thinking for a bit City are quietly playing poorly, trouble is they play poor and still win most games eg 1-0 v Southampton, last second winner at Wolves, 3-2 v Fulham, 2-1 v Brentford. Their points total has flattered them and I bet their fans are a bit bored watching them grind out wins against inferior opponents (like us beating Burton 2-1 but its most weeks for them). Now knocked out of a cup and lost at Bournemouth, great stuff. Quote

Nobody was ordinarily up for a cup match at home to Lincoln, but there was a buzz going to that game. Family that hadn't been to a game for months were excited to go, like a weight had been lifted.

Their fans don’t give a shit how they win Its against the rules of the competition to beat the entitled fucking arseholes Can’t wait to see my brother and my FiL tomorrow. Wah-fucking-wah the officials were bent, Bournemouth cheated, any fucking excuse Quote

Members Lt. Aldo Raine Posted November 3 Members Posted November 3 A Napoli defeat and an Emery humbling An afternoon to forget at Bolty towers Quote
Johnnyrotten Posted November 3 Posted November 3 That goal United conceded today...RVN clearly keen to get on trend and not mark up at corners. Chelsea played OK but hardly looked like scoring. Get a corner, there you go have an unchallenged pot shot from inside the box, what a surprise its gone in. Lovely. Quote
Johnnyrotten Posted November 3 Posted November 3 Scott Parker working wonders to get that Burnley squad looking so toothless. Nice defeat at Millwall today. Failed to score in 4 of last 7 games, all against teams nowhere near the top. Hopefully he keeps his job for a good while yet. Quote

Never liked Villa anyway but am a great admirer and respecter of Unai Emery. Won't be corresponding with the relatives for a few days. They'll be inconsolable. A chance to atone at the weekend at the Meazza? The end of that Inter game last night was dramatic! Quote

Just beggars belief that they couldn't score at home against that lot from north of the border. They have been scoring for fun apart from that game and it was an absolute miracle they didn't scored that night in the CL. Edited November 4 by bolty58 Quote

deeane Koontz Posted November 4 Posted November 4 Just seen Dapo scored at the weekend 🙂 Always happy for him and always a reminder of one of the most moronic decisions we've made in recent times. Clever Evatt Quote
