I find it crazy so many of you are putting Chelsea above City. City's squad is ridiculous and are absolutely the favourites for the league.

Chelsea already have the best defense and like last season they will win most if the big games. Add Costa and Fabregas and that's all they need. They would have won the title last season but they lost stupid games to Villa and Sunderland. That won't happen this time.

City had the best team last season and should have walked it but they didn't and needed us (then Palace) to get the job done for them after they lost to both us and Liverpool in crucial matches.

We've bought extremely well and what we needed, their marque signing is a 36 year old on loan for 6 months, Kompany and Aguero are crocks too.

If Costa can get together any sort of goalscoring form then we'll win the title, not to mention we have a much better manager as well.

I'm also leaning to the side of Chelsea winning the league. They strengthened really well this Summer and it would be nice to see City not win it this coming season. Anything can happen of course.

Vidal says he's happy to stay.

Heading to Redcafe for the meltdowns.

lol. Happy to stay has proven enough times to mean fuck all.

Isco was happy to stay at Malaga when he signed his contract, till Madrid came calling 6 motnhs later.

Jaws was happy to stay at Liverpool until The Chiellini Incident and Barca cam calling less than 3 months later.

I'm sure lots of players would be happy to stay where they are if nobody comes knocking. Once they hear the front gate clang and the gravel under the feet of the approaching offer though, plenty change their tune.

I don't we'll get him sadly, but I generally ignore most of what they say.

Tottenham are preparing a bid in excess of £15 million for PSV sensation Memphis Depay, Goal understands.

The 20-year-old winger was one of the highlights for the Netherlands at the World Cup finals and has been attracting interest from Manchester United, although it is Spurs who look primed to make the first move with an official offer.

I'd never heard of Depay before the WC, is he actually good?

He was the best player of the Eredivisie after Tadic, imo. We won't be happy to let him go though.

87 - Only Dusan Tadic (133) has created more chances than Memphis Depay in the 2013-14 Eredivisie. Drive.

After despising TLoU's multiplayer at first, I'm finally getting to grips with it and consistently doing well now. Only playing Survivors though. Love that mode. The rest are nowhere near as fun. The amount of invalids online though is soul destroying. Sprinting around on their own and the like. Why.

I love social media.

Buzzing about this one, when fit he is a class player, our backroom staff have just got a full season out of wes brown so there should be no problems with rodders. Big step up from side ways colshite.

I was going to post that a while ago, but somehow forgot.


United's u21s need this competition. Too few games in the u21 league.

If Vidal stays, I'm expecting a contract renegotiation soon. Either that or United had no intention of near doubling his salary (as the rumors went).

Three hours into Infamous SS. It's pretty damn awesome so far.

New "concussion rules" for the PL season:


  • A player suffering a head injury must now leave the pitch.
  • Team managers or coaching staff will no longer decide if a player continues to play and the final decision will be with the club doctor.
  • Home teams in the Premier League must now have a third "tunnel" doctor on match-days to support the work of the doctors for both sides.
  • The "tunnel" doctor will serve as an extra pair of eyes to spot potential concussions and watch TV replays to see the severity of incidents.

Matic is only £5.5m on Fantasy Premier League, which surprised me. Trying to decide whether to have Young in my team or not.

United will win every match. Bribed club doctors everywhere.

Liverpool opted out of it, for some reason. Maybe they think UEFA is just gonna come along and smash like they did with Nex-gen

Midfielders get points for scoring and assisting but no defensive points, so DMs tend to score pretty badly in Fantasy football.
