This City v Villa game has been brilliant shame John Moss has ruined it.

I saw it earlier but struggled to find a link. Very brown envelope dodgy indeed.

One of the best games I’ve seen all season.

end to end, manager sent off, loads of chances, poor finishing and a blatant offside goal to break the deadlock.

John Moss won’t need his whistle next weekend.....

Do you know which team has been given the most penalties in the premier league?

Wow, that was a 'shop window' goal of the highest calibre.

Happens all the time in football , Sam needs to just keep his mouth shut

Howard's transfer to Everton

Saha transfer to spurs from Everton

Kabba Sheffield utd to Watford

The key is providing it's a "gentleman's" agreement they can't stop them

The rumour I've heard is we didn't want to sell them Snodgrass until after we played them but they wanted him for wolves

So they said if we don't play him against u will you let us sign him now

Which is what happened

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Bugger. Did well enough to stifle United for long parts but some strike from Pogba

 

[Kellfire]

Yeah and its not Yernited.

It’s why I always laugh when I see the usual suspects.

I think it tends to be the more controversial topics that get more talk time. The way Chelsea are playing at the minute, with the amount they have spent and the usual cycle of managers for me is a bigger talking point.

Leicester have shown over the last 2 seasons that they are a quality outfit and for me its not a great surprise that they are right up there in the table. I'm not sure there are many neutrals who dont like this Leicester side.

Lets face it, there are two aspects to Leicester's "acceptability" by most.

One, they are the underdogs, and what they did the other was truly amazing, and was a great title win against the odds, and was also cheered on by myself.

The other is that they arent rivals to the normal teams challenging - City, United, Liverpool, Chelsea and others over the last 10 years or so. They are not an "unbearable" winner by them teams, or any tbh, apart from Derby and forest fans, possibly. Everyone said we were unbearable, cos of our win, but if we won it another 2-3 times over the next 10 years it wouldn't be as much, as would be a bit more normal. Do people not think that Spurs, West ham, Everton fans wouldn't be unbearable if they won it? Not for the majority as the majority dont have massive countrywide fanbases the way Liverpool and United do, so everyone knows a good few United or Liverpool fans, but most people who live outside of London or Manchester dont know a good few City, Spurs, Everton fans.
