Well if someone moaned about aches and pains whilst being dragged around a golf course they are clearly for the knackers yard.

Ask anyone on here that has had to walk more than 50 metres with me and you think I'd been forced out of a wheel chair and up Everest. Especially if a black cab goes past.

Are you talking about what Ravel got booked for on Cleverley? %@#$&!s. It was a late tackle, nothing more, not a petulant kick out long after the ball had gone.

It was a deliberate kick after the ball had gone.
If Rooney had done it the commentators wouldn't have shut up about it for the rest of the game.

Not that I particularly care either way, just referring to the double standards.

It was an attempt to play the ball, albeit a late one. Rooney booted someone up the arse with the ball 10 yards away.

McCartney deserved to go though, £#%&!ing terrible that.

Not sure about that

a clear shot on his left there but shifted to his right where he had a defender covering - if that was Valencia you'd be all over it

:searcheshousesforscousegoggles:

[scousegoggleson] we won 3-1 and he had two assists[/scousegoggleson]

he once shinned an overhead kick to beat the berts and scored a hat trick on his debut and did a lot of other great stuff but does that mean he didn't do a Tony V and miss a chance of a goal because he didn't trust his left foot?

let me know

they play each other on boxing day

united play them both in march

we've just won 4 on the bounce and play hull next



fwiw united are attacking well down both flanks atm, and city are shite defending down both flanks atm

they also have aguero missing

good to see kompany living up to his reputation again yesterday


liverpool would be harder to score against, but i'd cancel suarez out by sticking jones on him and would expect us to win - just as we did already this season against them at home

Smalling was immense as centre back yesterday. Looks completely inept as a right back but so much more composed and in control as a centre back. Brought the ball out well, passed it well, never panicked.

Would have been a thoroughly deserved clean sheet if that brainless tit Buttner had any kind of positional awareness.

Agree, some of his first touches/control was outstanding. Moyes went mad at Buttner on the sideline for playing Cole onside.

Good, he was totally unaware of his position. And the way he trotted back to the penalty area was dreadful too.

Agreed, jones is solid at CB too, bout time we started playing these two at CB.

All we need is a left back and our defence and keeper is looking top class for the next 10+ years.

It was as though Buttner thought he was still warming up on the touchline and wasn't in the game
