English League Football ** spoilers ** [24th - 28th September 2010]

[DanH84]

a draw please as either Biz.Kid or Gustov are going to be intolerable with any other result.

 

[Robert1986]

Its been all Man City in the first 10 minutes. good start

 

[Greenlizard0]

Neither side really going for it. I can see it staying as a draw.

 

[explicit4u]

No way is this staying a draw, once either team scores the game will open up a bit. It'll take a mistake or a great piece of skill to break this deadlock .

One attempt on goal

 

[Sho]

After Berba's Hatrick last week against the Dippers... Wana see his performence against Bolton.....

Should be a routine win.

 

[jakeke]

Boring first half, would take this score though

 

[Greenlizard0]

Same.

Thought it'd be like this: very midfield dominated, tactical marking, players not being able to find each other and Drogba being an utter prat.

 

[Biz.Kid09]

Nice solid half from us...Boyata looks a top player and him and zab have dealt with Cole and Ivan well, We still need a 2nd striker with Tevez though but Mancini wont change it this early. expect Ade around 70min
EDIT: Been really quite impressed with Silva, been putting himself about and hopefully 2nd half he can start expressing himself

 

[Robert1986]

Hope second half opens up. Tevez looks lonely up front.

 

[Greenlizard0]

I approve of his haircut. None of this long haired nonense.

 

[explicit4u]

city 1-0

 

[Cosimo]

City 1-0

 

[utajoker]

the only time i will chear a city goal

 

[Biz.Kid09]

Top goal...1-0, Bring A Johnson on now....

 

[Shamikebab]

Oh god On the one hand I want Chelsea to lose, on the other hand I want City to lose...there can be no winners today really. Oh and I don't want a draw. Match abandoned with all players banned from playing football again would be a suitable outcome.

 

[K1LLSW1TCH]

I've just got out of the bath and I missed the damn goal.

That looked nasty, a bit higher up and it could have been a dislocation or a broken bone.

 

[CliffyBiro]

Cudicini; Hutton, Corluka, Bassong, Bale; Lennon, Jenas, Huddlestone, Modric; Van der vaart; Crouch.

Given the format, looks like a 4-4-1-1

 

[explicit4u]

What a run from Y.Toure!

Is there a reluctance to play Bale in midfield? I've only watched a few bits and pieces of him this year but I thought he was much more effective playing on the left side of the midfield instead of being stuck at the back. You're only playing West Ham and I doubt they will provide much of a threat going forward, I'd say he's wasted at left back.

Nope, but Redknapp would be stupid to leave Modric or VdV out.

And with BAE being the liability he is, this is the best solution.
