Re: 2012-13 EPL Thread

How was it lucky to be a penalty? He took Ba out in a goal scoring position and I thought it was lucky not to be a red. Great save by Hart, I guess that was the 1 in 10 penalties that Lampard misses.

There was the Ramires one when he was running in at Hart but instead of firing the ball into the corner like he has been all season, he tried to take another touch and got to close to the defender.

Not saying that we weren't under the pump, but they should have both been goals(I know you guys had chances too).

Ba made more than the most out of it. From memory, the replay showed that and I remember the commentators stating as much at the time.

When I first saw it, I was ready to thump a fist through the TV directly for Hart ... Luckily he redeemed himself!

Ramires' first touch all game was extremely poor, surprised he wasn't subbed.

[QUOTE=chef;310304]I thought we defended well and tried to hit you on the counter as most away sides do at the Etihad(you have lost 1 of your last 40 games). We weren't even close to being humiliated.

You must admit it took two pretty special goals to get past our defence.

I enjoy reading the stuff on 'We ain't got no history', but its just another fans opinion.

I thought Cahill was absolutely amazing for you guys, it definitely took two special shots to nail it but I did think it was only a matter of time because we were playing well and moving the ball with some pace, which we haven't done at times this season.

Rafa's.

After todays rant he might be gone before the end of the season. Avram Grants waiting for a call.

Rafa's.

I'd say so. Mourinho is rumoured to come back to Chelsea but I'm not sure he will.

I'm starting to believe he will.

Nah I'm not Mancini Would you say his job at City come seasons end is in trouble.

Because united have been so lucky and City not so, I'd say he's safe.

Far cry from Dixon, Keown, Bould and Adams

Gee Oscars going to be quite the player. Him, Mata and Hazard are going to be a joy to watch over the best part of the next decade. Can't wait till we have a world class centre forward in front of them next season.

Pool beat Spurs 3-2.

Re: 2012-13 EPL Thread

oh Kyle Walker you moron. Spurs were in complete control until a wild, unnecessary and completely wayward backpass left Lloris with the task of trying to clear in mid air.

Defoe's pass into Liverpools penalty area for the penalty and BAE's challenge for the penalty was equally stupid.

Funnily enough the 3 positions I have wanted upgraded for the past 2 seasons.

Completely changed the game.

Re: 2012-13 EPL Thread

yeah Pool controlled the first 20 minutes, and the 20 minutes before that error Spurs were controlling it. Rest of the time was pretty even.

QPR have won back to back games in the PL for the first time in 17 years. Villa better watch out this weekend as it will soon be three wins on the trot. Part of the next chapter in 'arry's Great Escape.
