Premier League Thread

I'd go for Robert Johnson, who wrote about selling his soul to the devil in exchange for becoming one of the best blues guitarists of his generation in the song "Crossroads", later covered by Cream. Les Reed settled for being part of a Champions League-winning football club.

 

So Spurs had 67% of the possession, but only 33% of the goals. Sounds familiar.

 

Well done Newcastle!
MoPo for the sack...will JRod and Snidders want to go to a relegation club?

 

They could always follow him out of employment, I suppose.

 

We would have been ecstatic to keep Mauricio and would no doubt have had another good season, but rather have Koeman now. We have made such progress.

 

Looks like Mata is marking the ref...spending most of the game running along side him giving him advise on decisions. OMG I hate Manure

 

What does hating manure have to do with Mata and football?

 

I fancy United to win this... no idea why.

 

On reflection, I'll be satisfied with a draw. De Gea just saved ManU. But Drogba scores.

 

Drogba

 

You were saying..?

 

I like Drogba, always have - he is/was a phenomenally impressive player.

 

Well will they let Drogba keep that goal - in off a United player? We'll see. Probably favouring the favourite few unlike when our man was denied a hat trick.

 

Chelsea looking a bit ominous now.

 

Good player but I don't know how anyone could like him. Doing the sign of the cross multiples of times during the game is probable asking for forgiveness for all the diving, cheating, feigning injuries he does through a game.

 

I like him. I don't like diving, but as a footballer he was phenomenal - seemingly a bloody nice bloke off the field too, having read about him.

 

Just had a troll round the Spurs board and it seems their's growing unhappiness with the way things are progressing [shame]
they mention loads of possession but little penetration in the final third [sounds familiar]?
So it would seem, one or two more defeats in the coming weeks and poor old Poch will have his nuts well and truly squeezed?

 

Damn...we may have to settle for being runner up

 

Robbie Savage is clueless. "Don't think Shaw is defensively that great, you buy him as a wingback." He's just another one to add to the list of lazy journalists, anyone who watches Shaw knows his best asset is his defending.

 

Yeah, I know, bit of a downer, eh..?

ManU v Chelsea on 80 minutes. They might as well blow up for the end of the game now. ManU are industrious, but they're not going to score. That old thing about ManU not getting beat, they just run out of time. Well, they've run out of time already.
