EPL and British Football

[mhnessie]

Absolutely. I hope those players form some sort of protest and put on their blue jerseys, at least during pregame warmups. Just to make a point.

Im really happy that an owner like Vincent Tan is unlikely to happen for a German Bundesliga team. Changing the crest and team colours is one of the worst things I can imagine to happen to my team.
Its just like erasing all of the history and tradition of a team and club.
And why ? Because red is the better colour for the Asean market, ridiculous.
Come on and wake up Mr. Tan, as if they would care about Cardiff City in Asia.
Found a nice article about him and why he is the worst owner in sports:

My first game today will be Newcastle against Arsenal. Are you guys watching too ?
Couldnt watch a single game yesterday because it took me more than 6 hours to assemble an IKEA wardrobe.
I f***** hate IKEA. I wont do that again.

Ive been up since 05:30 to watch Arsenal and my Magpies. Slow first half except for the last minute of injury time.

Many misplaced passes now......

We have a saying - " Ein gutes Pferd springt nicht höher als es muss" . Thats what Arsenal was doing. Just as much as neccessary to win this game.....

Rats, no equalizer in that mess of chances in the last 10 minutes.

Chelsea- Reds now, Eto'o in the starting lineup?
To me a surprise, Schürrle and Torres on the bench....

And I honestly believe that Juan Mata is Chelsea's best player and Jose refuses to start him.

 

[mhnessie]

What a start, 1-0 Skrtl.....

 

[mhnessie]

World class goal by Hazard , 1-1

World class goal by Hazard , 1-1

Brilliant strike by Hazard.

 

[mhnessie]

And even Eto'o scored, 2-1

 

[Bundesbiers]

oh.... Totty with a PK.... and they convert.

 

[mhnessie]

Brilliant strike by Hazard.

Will be exciting to see how the Belgium team will do in Brazil....

 

[Bundesbiers]

And even Eto'o scored, 2-1

LOL... I missed the goal. I had switched over to the Totty game to watch the PK.

 

[Bundesbiers]

I think they will do quite well... And I fear if the USA can make it out of the group stage, Belgium will most likely be the next opponent. Rough.

Nicolas Anelka in a spot of trouble.

Hmmm, I must admit I've never seen this gesture before. But Anelka seems to be a troublemaker wherever he's under contract. Its a shame how he wasted his talent and his career. He could have been a world class striker.

Been workin all day just in the door, only to discover CFC beat the scouse Delighted!

He is what he is a good finisher but typically petulant and verging on childish when things don't go his way. The spoiled brat within stopped him becoming a megastar.

Indeed PackerFan71 and I've learned my lesson yesterday
Usually we dont buy at IKEA but we thought this could save us some money

Stupid move for accomplished player. Agree with the talent wasted.

Hehehe. The first red card was a little harsh against stoke. Not quite sure it deserved a 2nd yellow for a red. The 2nd red card was definitely deserved. And then Remy missed the PK, crap, it could have been 6-1. We have Arsenal this weekend at home. Hope for a good showing.

Good for Sunderland. But that was a little crazy with the other teams in/near the drop zone also picked up points. Fulham was the one that surprised me the most.

agree that whelan's sending off was harsh, but defo a pen and red card for the foul on remy, you also forgot to mention williamsons hand-ball in the lead up to the dirty mags first goal, and that the penalty was saved by a former black cat, hasn't sorenson done this before?
