Premier League Games 13/14 Dec(midweek, page 53)

[lancs blue]

Not even arsed about the Premier League any more. Every season we are the best team but get constantly poor treatment every game by the officials and conceding with our opponents only shots whilst our rivals scrimp and get every decision and narrowly win every game.

Been the same every season, just getting boring now.

Yesterday was down to nothing other than our own incompetence, on and off the pitch.

 

[@BluePhil8]

You honestly believe we're currently the best team? are you mad?

Yeah, I do. Did you watch the Chelsea game? Because any other day, with an impartial referee, that would have been 5 or 6-0 to City.

 

[dubblue]

Chelsea's to lose, no Europe, a week to prepare for matches and a strong physical side who can also do the technical aspect of the game.

And take into account the strengths of the opposition.

 

[@BluePhil8]

I'm not talking about yesterday and I'm not solely blaming officiating.

5 or 6 nil. Put down the Meths mate.

 

[Gray]

The people blaming referees, cheating opponents, the Chumps League and the elements should wake up and smell the coffee.

We have been shit for weeks and it is nothing to do with the aforementioned reasons.

 

[cookster]

That's how to win the league, take your chances, don't concede and not be ashamed of a 1-0 scoreline.

Pretty straightforward. Keep a clean sheet and you've always a chance of winning a tight game. We'll be 10 points behind Chelsea/Arsenal come Jan 1

It was a game we should have won regardless of the officials. That we didn't was down to incompetence up front and at the back.

 

[cookster]

Chelsea today, conceded 1 shot on target.

Spot on. People are quick to forget we were 1-0 up and controlling the game. No decisions from the officials changed the game after that.

Chelsea not played at all well today but still ground out a win...7 points off the top after being 5 clear not so long ago?

I yearn for 1-0's sigh

 

[YaYa's Left Peg]

We're fucked in terms of the title imo. Top 4 will be a struggle.

Chelsea have a great set of fixtures coming up - suspect they'll get 12 from 12 points. Us - who knows but wouldn't surprise me if we only picked up 2/3 points. Could be 15 to 17 points behind by turn of year.

How the fuck have the manager and players allowed this to happen?

 

[Colin Bells Boots]

What time does the world's unluckiest team kick off ?

We've been shit for 3 of the last 4 seasons, not weeks. The blame for this rests almost exclusively at the feet of this over-pampered, overpaid squad of players we've still got. They destroyed Mancini and Pellegrini and are making Guardiola look like a poor mans Alan Ball!! They mostly get off scot free whilst fans rail against the city board, the city management, the referees, the FA, EUFA, the Premier League, Sky, BT, the press and most disappointingly, whoever is currently in charge of team selection. Until there is a major cull these issues will keep appearing sometime in October and continue throughout the season, save for the occasional, sporadic improvement. We've known most of this lot are lazy bastards and have been for years. Sadly, most of them seem incapable of changing their ways. Let's support Guardiola until he has his own team and then we can judge.

9 wins in a row and 7 clean sheets is some going.

 

[deano ou812]

Chelsea get wins when not playing that well,the old grinding out wins,if we don't win it and it's hugely unlikely unless we go on a very very long unbeaten run and others fuck up,I don't mind Conte or (reminds me a bit like Mancini )Chelsea winning it couldn't stand Liverpool or Arsenal winning it..

 

[cookster]

Bravo doesn't save that.
