^ Suarez? or CR7?
Gave the player a yellow, however he gave the ball to them so it basically went unpunished. Ridiculous.Quote:

Liverpool slipped up a bit and are in 4th place
and Man Utd are not even in the top 5... Not surprised as its Moyes first time in charge. Theres talks he wants to rebuild and start offloading players
:beer:
Watch them climb again with Sturridge & Suarez back. Nerve wrecking match today, but Sturridge looked sharper than ever when he came on.Quote:

Liverpool looking like the sides of old right now:
Ruthless as well as scoring goals for fun.
Seeing them play at Anfield is a joy - the confidence is growing.
Shame we had to play Arsenal & Manchester City back to back
But I agree with Gnom....phazers off stun now that S.A.S. has reunited!
I would love to see the squad bulk up as that's been their downfall in recent years.
If Berbatov goes to Arsenal - that's not good for everyone else - he would fit in perfectly.
EPL is looking good
the top spot is anyones
its a 4 horse race Arsenal, Man city, Chelsea, and L.pool

apparently it had nothing to do with racism. Apparently Ballotelli simply became emotional.Quote:

mario needs to put forth more effort and do more for the team. Clarence said he needs to grow up, i agree. its time for mario to step up and fulfill his world class potential.
Tbf, City just lost points to Norwich as we demolished Arsenal. And City is the only top team who haven't lost points to west brom (and they've only played them once). Everton got 2 points from 2 matches vs. west brom, Man Utd 0 from 1, Tottenham 1 from 1, Chelsea 1 from 1 and Arsenal 1 from 1. So our 4 points from 2 matches vs west brom really ain't that bad.Quote:

the epl looks more interesting than the other leagues
the first place battle is great , pool, city, chelsea, gunners!
manchester have fallen off. Im pretty sure by the summer there will be major changes. Roony could most likely leave and RVP seems to want back in with arsenal?
in spain Athletic is giving mardid and barca a run for the $$
Liverpool are coming trust me!
I'm sure the Van Persie thing is garbage.
lol @ taking soccer so seriously and these crazy people in Italy.
lol two do u see that weird?
the best @ mark 1:53
I've been a fan of the arsenal since around 2002/03 I watched them win the BPL in 04 when I graduated from high school. hopefully they'll win again in 2014.
anybody following the CL ?
Chelsea are the only british team left in the running
real madrid are looking good
lets see if manchester united dont get it in the arse by the greeks
premier league has improved a lot since they got lots of spanish players
I have to say united has a team that can be competitive but Moyes sucks as a coach!!
Theres no style of play or tactics on the field.
Kagawa is always on the bench ! what a waste of talent !!
He should go back to dortmund !
the benched players makes me wonder why they don't see any playing time
mata, kagawa, nani, fellaini, chicharito, & Januzaj?
Premier League >>>> Whatever League you wanna bring.Quote:

At least in my opinion anyway.
Moyes can't loose if you think about it....
It's a different job than any other in existence!
Just look at what he did with Everton....
Given time he will succeed of that I have no doubt.
Still it's funny as fuck to see the polar shift
My whole life they have been almost invincible
It's a "Changing Of The Guard" in many ways.
Next season I expect Utd to be extreamly dangerous though
Once missing pieces are found & Moyes tells one or two about themselves.
Kagawa is that dude though....I'll give you that.
The man united team is terrible, it's not just moyes. Ferguson knew dis datd 1 of da reasons he retired. City, Liverpool, Arsenel n Cheksea are all a lot stronger dis year, even if ferguson was still manager they would have finished maybe 4th at da highest if they were lucky.
Aston Villa >>>>>>> all else doh for real.
See us destroy Chelsea? Delph > Hazard in dat game by a country mile
anyone else catch el classico on the weekend
barca vs R.madrid
messi scores a hat trick leads barca too win !!
shit was a shame , clasico was ruined by the referee. you cannot whistle 3 non-existent penatys in a match like this. referees in my country are the worst in tha worldQuote:

its always barca and Real fighting it out
final 4 of the Champions League

I wouldn't be surprised if they took it. I wouldnt say upset because they are actually playing good.
I was reading that messi had trouble playing because of lazer pointers
There's always an excuse when Messi doesn't perform well..
I see Chelsea taking it again.
hahah that's hilarious I personally think he's overrated but that's just me. I caught the Dortmund vs real Madrid game on Friday - 2 to 0 that was good. Dort had better possession during the game and cleaner attacks. IMO. but I don't know how real Madrid still advance by a 3 to 2 aggregate. seems like that was a wasted game but w/e. that's the champions league for ya.Quote:

I think most people will be predicting a Chelsea vs Bayern final
I think it will be an Athletico vs Bayern Final (pep knows how to beat madrid)
I have a hard time predicting any of those tbh. I guess Bayern should manage Real, but it's in no way a given. I probably like the current R. Madrid team even better. Athletico is def the underdog, but they've been immense this season, so I'm kinda hoping they'll get this.
Big, big game in prem league tomorrow.. I'm already convinced, but a victory for LFC vs City tomorrow, and we'll probably be favorites for the title. Anxiously waiting.
Liverpool have done it!!Quote:

Norwich, Chelsea, Crystal Palace and Newcastle stand in the way !
Liverpool should beat them easly with Chelsea being the biggest test!
Athletico looking like they will take la liga as well
I hope althetico win la liga and the champions league
i know they are having $$ problems and at the end of the season alot of the clubs will pick apart the team and leave them with nothing
The winner of that Liverpool - Chelsea match might take the cup because Chelsea ''only'' has to deal with Sunderland, Norwich and Cardiff. They do have 2 games against Athletico before and after the Liverpool match and Liverpool plays at home so I give them a slight advantage. (L'pool = 2 pts ahead).
edit: Forgot about Man City with 2 games behind, only team I see possibly beating them is Everton.
Gonna be some exciting times!
"THIS DOES NOT FUCKING SLIP NOW!"
What a match!
with chelsea losing and lpool winningQuote:
