pretty much same as usual guys lol
Man Utd lost to Swansea in their opening game of the season, Arsenal grabbed a late winner against Palace, City play tomorrow, so yeah. That's the Prem so far.
But yeah, talk about any football in any division and / or country =]
-

Swansea's in Wales haha, they've got a few decent players (Sigurdsson's a fantastic signing for them)
if you ever want to learn things then post in here, we'll help as much as possible =P

yeah the world cup really sparked my interest for football, im going to try and pay more attention to
epl this year C:

So Fulham lost their first two opening games of the champo.
one of them was against Millwall
I have never been so upset.
-
We're losing against City, had a good first half though. Wouldn't be too disappointed with a loss, we just need good performances that we can build on.
Shame about losing to Millwall, that's kinda criminal Liam =/
-
How. Losing to Villa at home is silly.
But we should be firing up pretty soon.
Liverpool won 2-1 over Southampton, goals from Sterling / Sturridge and Clyne in that one.
laughing at Man United though
-
Two draws- One against Port Fail and another against Bradford.
Business as usual down at Walsall then
-
Well, that Fabregas assist for the second Chelsea goal wasn't half bad

It's interesting in a way because on the one hand you've got this gifted footballer who could be a completely striker but on the other hand it is someone who can be as controversial as Suarez and on an off day is much of a detriment to the team than a helpful member. At £16m it's a little bit of a risk but it could be worth it.
That being I wouldn't have signed him if I were I'm charge, would have gone with Markovic, Sturridge and Sterling as a front three.

Pay more attention to the Football League, it's much better ;)

Football League is for proper football fans, not the Sky Sports generation. Premier League was founded on making as much money as possible.
Just casual observations

no
I mean, I do agree that the commercialised nature of the Premier League (and a lot for the bigger clubs around the world) can be somewhat crippling towards the sport as a whole (in a domestic perspective) but it's still not detrimental to the point where the football itself is tarnished; the ability of the footballers at that level is much better and it should be respected for that.
inb4 end of season drama
inb4 diving is damaging the game (even happens at the lower levels unfortunately)
all of it's football, tbh to be a proper fan you can appreciate all the levels and not claim any sort is worse because of the financial situations. The football at the top level is the pinnacle even with its flaws outside of what's on the pitch.
-
As much as I'd love to play up to the paradigm that the football league is for the proper supporters, I can't help but feel it gets used condescendingly by the fans of the smaller clubs, intentionally so as well, in the same way that fans of football get patronised by those who don't follow the sport; "oh, football, heh". We get that you support a side that isn't winning everything, that isn't highlighted in every news broadcast, but that doesn't make you any greater of a fan to your side than I can be to mine. The wonderful thing about the sport is that it can be followed in so many different sports, but we're all part of the same cause.
Any 'supporter' who peers down their nose at the lower leagues as though they're just cute, pretenders, are superficial and not true supporters of the sport. But I usually find it's usually those who latch onto trends who are the worst for it, supporting whoever is the 'in-thing' at the time, Barcelona one season then Real Madrid the next. Casuals, although that does no justice to the term casuals. You'll always find a minority in every majority.
-
Phew, Stoke nicking a point from Hull (controversially apparently but idk it's a point for us). Spurs did a pretty sweet job of taking QPR apart (Eric Dier can't be a defender surely!).
Angel di Maria is on the verge of going to Man United as well...
-
I would have stayed at Real to be honest. At least I'd be getting Champions League football.

I dunno, if you're an elite player and there's been someone brought in who's pretty much guaranteed to start in your position you're really gonna want to move on and, regardless of how good the team is, Man Utd are still probably the second biggest club in the world. It's a bit of a rebuild job but the lure of joining such a massive team is there, plus ££££££
-
After last night I reckon he's handed in a transfer request already! :laugh:
Edit: Rooney is now England captain. Screw this, I'm supporting San Marino...
-
Comfy win there for us, onto Sunderland away in the next round :D
So, QPR are out but Burton are through, Villa are out but Leyton Orient are through and Man United are out but MK Dons are through amongst others. Great week for Premier League teams [D
-
Yes the Ginger Pirlo's gonna run the midfield for England from now on get in there!

Never underestimate the Football League ;)
-
Fulham finally win a competitive match this season!
-
Never underestimated it.
Crazy day, Man United and Man City failed to score, Chelsea won 6-3 against Everton...and we actually beat Man City away :0
-
Never said you did, but too many people think that going up against a L1 team means an automatic win.
-
To be honest, you can't blame them entirely. Normally the difference in quality makes them seem less likely to win. Of course bigger teams will field weaker sides sometimes...but they'll still field good players.

Man United's formation for Saturday, if this Falcao thing goes ahead.
-
Am I reading that Leicester score right?
-
^ Yep, even Cambiasso scored!
More importantly, Super Frank stops Chelsea from winning. Emotional scenes.
-
Ulloa's been pretty darn good for Leicester so far, and great to see Cambiasso get a goal in the Premier League.
Palace stole three points from Goodison Park, impressive :0
-
Man United just need a couple more strikers >.<
Edit- A bad joke I just wrote:
'Things more secure than Man United's back four:
1. MI5's central computer
2. That shrink wrapped plastic you find on kitchen utensils and USB sticks
3. Jennifer Lawrence's iCloud password'
-
Chester v Wrexham is pretty entertaining. Forgot Championship / L1 / L2, this is where it's at.
-
Non-League is a great day out. I go to Hednesford when I can as it's cheaper and more fun than going to bigger clubs.
-
Well, I dare not imagine what Gus Poyet was saying to his players after that.
Pelle and Tadic though, pretty good signings they are.
That Fabregas goal yesterday was pretty damn good too, and Man City v Spurs had everything.

It's been PG-13 for a few years now bud =P
Great weekend of football though. Much prefer club to internationals these days
El Clasico next weekend too, hope Ronaldo and Messi put on a clinic
-
What a strike for Hearts, ridiculously good goal. Smashed it in from 40 yards off the underside of the bar.
Newcastle just equalised against Spurs too.

James Rodriguez showing he was worth the outlay...
-
That flick-on from Benzema though.
We threw it away against West Ham, we could have won 4-2 or heck, 5-2 with the chances we had. Diouf should have had a hat-trick and Cameron could have nabbed one as well.
-
:BUMP:
I'm just going to leave this here...

Walsall have never been. That's how much of a big deal this is.

Even though I don't support my local team going to see them at Wembley was so emotional
-
I lost track of how many yellow cards were dished out in the United/Arsenal game last night.
And Villa fans invading the pitch like they'd just beaten Barcelona. Calm down, it's only the Albion.
-
Wow, what happened to Real last night. Schalke were pretty damn good against them xd
-

They've almost imploded on themselves on the pitch the past few weeks or so, it wasn't just last night where they've underperformed
-
But with players like Ronaldo, James, Bale and co that should not be happening in such a way that they're letting the German version of Spurs put four past them.

Rodriguez has been injured, Bale and Ronaldo are playing so poorly. Kroos hasn't been great, they've missed Modric and at the back they've been reckless. On paper, they shouldn't do but they have, but that's football for you.
-
Suppose it's the same with Man United. On paper that team should not have won Fergie's last title, but they did.
Now we're seeing them for what they are and it's actually quite funny seeing the fans resort to bringing up history like they constantly claim Liverpool do.
JPT yesterday. Walsall lost but to finally see my team at Wembley was a fantastic occasion. Wasn't all doom and gloom though: Barca won El Classico and that put a smile on my face since Ronaldo's behaving like a child again.
-
Going to Wembley is great, I went there to watch an FA Trophy final quite a few years back now. Absolutely gutted after the game though =[
-
Typical Neymar, spending most of his time on the ground than on the ball last night.
And this is a man who likes Barca.
