Just to say again Caller....
All in all we played okay against the best team in the league.
Would we have done better with a full squad - who knows.

Chelsea are heads and tails above the rest of the league at the moment. Romans millions have everything to do with that. Some great buys this season... wish we had 100 odd million to throw about on a couple of players too. :wink:

I won't bother mentioning the penalty shout!
Missed that one. Surely you're not talking about Cole's. :?

Well bar the sour taste left in my mouth from the first game its been a cracking day of football. Flicking through the channels today I got lucky and saw most the good bits (normally miss them!) City playing with 10 men for most of the game and a goal down win 2-1 in the dying stages. United battling with stoke in a 4-2 thriller. Young Sterling getting his first premier league goal... second youngest scorer for the Pool behind Owen.

Gotta love the game! :D

By all means and please, go further than that. That was the worst I've seen for years and no excuses can be found for the performance. :twisted: :guns:

After Chelseas game I went shopping and then spent an evening with Elvis. After that I thought I'd enjoy MOTD, someone else decided strictly come dancing had priority, so I will comment on Arsenal after brekky & MOTD in the morning! Still deciding where to have Sunday lunch? Will it be the Hare, the Pheasant, the Plough, the Queens Arms or the Swan Inn? Tough choices!

As an aside, folk are getting good scores in IKTS aren't they - it has to stop!

Chelsea played some great stuff......Mata,Hazard,Torres and,especially,Oscar were top drawer.
Some clinical finishing but woeful defending,particularily Gallas.
Di Matteo seems to have replaced the old guard of Terry,Lampard and Drogba with the minimum of fuss and with some excellent buys.

For the first 25 minutes Manchester United seemed to be back in their bad pedestrian ways.Rooneys first 5 touches were two shocking passes,caught in possession twice and an own goal !
But his equaliser steadied things down and United ended up comfortable winners.Surprised Stokes defence was breached so easily though.
Once again Uniteds defence was nervy.A good attack would have scored a hatful.Lets hope its not Chelsea next Sunday.
I thought Rafael and the ever willing Welbeck did well for United.I'm not a big fan of Anderson but he put some lovely long crossfield passes when he came on.I hope he can do that more often.

I'm not surprised by the Arsenal result because I had them down as my Banker on IKTS.....5 weeks of bonuses down the drain ! :twisted:

And Liverpool had a narrow win over fellow strugglers Reading to pull clear of the relegation area.Baa Baa will be growing in confidence and may soon be able to post on an equal footing as the rest of us ! 8)
We're all on our uppers,we're all going skint,
