City will be fine this season, game should have been over by half-time, Silva was terrible and put City on the back foot. But they were still too powerful for Southampton. Which will be case for most teams.
Also refreshing to see UTD fans clinging to any morsel of hope already

Fair dos but the message isn't the reason he was booked, it was for pulling his shirt over his head (you're allowed to pull it up though...). That's the silly rule.
Now we switch over and watch Real. Sky Sports is unbelievable.
That is completely stupid.

Hmm, nothing to be frightened of unless Carragher plays. I'm petrified.
Coates was boss against Leverkusen, hope he plays alongside Skrtel.
Rodgers will have garnered a few positives from that, though.
It's annoying how the Real game isn't in HD on Sky. Looks so fuzzy compared to the City match.
Game made me nervous. The defense was not particularly good and Hart clearly was not as good as he needs to be. I'm not feeling confident about going to Anfield at all now.
I'm not confident that Kun's "twisted knee" is only that.. I can't see him being out for anything less than a month though regardless. No way Dzeko moves at this point. The good thing is there is no way that Silva will be as bad as he was today consistently..
Hats off to Southampton, they played a great game and made the most of their chances. I think they've got a good chance to stay up.

Please, don't talk about Aguero. I feel ill about it.
Stop being so melodramatic.
City game was amazing! I was very impressed with Southampton. They have great players and I was actually rooting for them at the end .
Now we start the league in 10 mins. Benfica drawed against Braga yesterday at home. If we win today we start with 2 points ahead of them already which might be important. We play against Gil Vicent away, the only team that defeated us last year. It's going to be hard but we have to get the 3 points!

Was Tevez booked when he scored?
Anyway good win, under great pressure. Largely our own making because it could have been 4 - 0 by the end of the second half, but it'll be a good game to get the rust out of the knees.
Speaking of knees, the real story will be the Aguero injury. Dzeko just received a lifeline, one that is deserved.
I know, sounds like United fans talking about their midfield.
Seriously. :lol
Yeah, I can keep getting exposed to Piers Morgan's tweets.

January game against Sunderland. Ji was offside for the final second goal, so I guess that counts. That point was almost very decisive.

Haven't even seen his goal yet, I missed the first half. That was the rule Martin Tyler or another commentator explained last season though. Players are free to pull their shirt up, but as soon as they pull it over their head (which you'd need to do to take it off) it's a bookable offence.
His attitude, his arrogance, and his face are three good reasons, for a kick off.
I hated the new shirt when it was announced but it's actually pretty sweet. It looks much more sophisticated than the golden one.

Agreed. This year's kit is good, but last year's kits (especially the away kit) were pure sex. I dunno what Nike was thinking when they designed the Barca kits for this year. Two-tone, eww.
What?? Is that right? I am mad. La Liga IS ray Hudson.
Yeah, but its full of Pakistanis and Indians arguing. Or everyone laughing at Australia.

Judging purely from yesterday's quad selection, I'm not sure Rodgers has the bollocks to put Carragher below Coates, even though the only reason for it not to happen is a fear of the vocal minority who can't handle the fact that Carragher is utter dirge these days
Right then so 8 months ago, thought it'd been a while. Usually these things balance themselves out over the course of a season, it didn't last year with Man City so maybe it's their turn this year. (not holding my breath)
Swapping Cassano for Pazzini is idiotic as it is already.

Higuaiiiiiin!
Edit: Di Maria assist.
Scores on third attempt from same assist.

Fucking :lol at the three attempts for Higuain. Poor, poor defending from Valencia.
After he saw Carragher get buggered by Lukaku, I think he might. Carragher really shouldn't be playing against the best team in the league; wouldn't be surprised if he started against Hearts though.
