No one can disagree that United did not deserve the win against WBA. They had the most chances, they played to win, ...... The win was lucky, but well deserved.

I feel sorry for Swansea. Thought there was little doubt that they'd get pwned, anyway... Still... That's almost harsh.

4-0 CITY!!!!
Aguero scored twice in 30 minutes and got an assist.
KID IS A BEAST.
No Tevez but Balotelli is on the bench because AJ is starting.
Forgot all about that match. Damn, did not expect him to be on this level so soon! Hopefully (or hopefully not

) he keeps scoring and playing well.

I was quite suprised I only saw the second goal as I just got home.
 
4-0 to City. Well that was a slightly disappointing premiership debut. But I won't get my hopes down. Losing to City isn't exactly disgraceful and hey it'll take a few games to get used to the Premiership.

Plus the fact we didn't expect to be the Premiership and the fact we have a modest budget in Championship terms than in Premiership terms.

Aguero, Torres, Dzeko and Suarez are gonna be fighting out for the Golden Boot

Tevez, Rooney, Darren Bent and Van Persie say Hi.
Tevez-Most likely will leave but with Aguero he might not get much time
Rooney-Too deep to win top scorer
Bent-Err maybe I guess
Van Persie-Too injury prone

Tevez is their captain, they will not leave him on the bench for Aguero. He'll probably leave though, true.
Rooney can become top scorer, he has almost done it before too. Hard, but certainly possible.
Bent has the misfortune he isn't in a team that is able to play for top 4. He's a certainty for 15 goals each season though.
Van Persie is injury prone, but Torres isn't?

Also, City almost always starts with only 1 striker. How can Dzeko AND Aguero fight it out then?

You would be suprised in how little some people know about the actual rules of football, but Im not saying everyone here doesnt know, Im just saying that alot of people who claim to know all the rules, dont know all the rules. Hell I played for about 10years, I still dont know all the rules only the rules Ive been told by my coach and grandfather.

Ever since I started watching [and playing - on videogames] football, I've learned what I believe to be all the on-pitch rules. Not the word for word definition, true, but I understand them anyway. The rules for clubs based on the FA's and stuff, well, let's say they're mostly unfamiliar. I'm studying up on tactics, strategies etc.

My main problem is that I can't play it myself [bad knees

], but I learn the intricacies of sports rather fast.



PS
Btw, is it true Spurs are lining up Adebayor? Hm...
