This Weeks other PL Fixtures Week 9 17-19 Oct 15

Had to laugh when the commentator said that "Norwich are really going for it now", as they bring on Cameron Jerome.
The king of career thieves. IMO
 
Great first half at Inter-Juve, still 0-0, the bianconeri started positively for the first 10 mins but then Inter took over and dominated the first half, coming close to scoring on several occasions and were it not for Buffon's fingertips, Inter would be deservedly ahead.

Jovetic is pulling Inter's midfield strings, often turning inside from the left and looks very good indeed, causing several Juve yellows and is behind almost all Inter's opportunities. Icardi is very lively and has a great physical battle with Barzagli and Chiellini, who are showing great composure and strength. Felipe Melo was on an early yellow card and looks like a red card waiting to happen and should be subbed asap.

Very good show of intensity and desire in almost every tackle and touch, hope the second half continues the same way.

Second half saw Juve again starting very lively but this time they maintained the dominance throughout the second half, especially with Cuadrado down the right flank and Marchisio and Pogba driving Juve forward in the center. Inter came out very defensively and it's almost as if Mancini decided he'd do everything to secure the point at half time.

Jovetic and Icardi only showed themselves in flashes, instead Gary Medel stepped up and hounded Juve players from Cuadrado on the right to Khedira on the left. As predicted, Felipe Melo was subbed just after the hour mark for Guarín.

Juve pounded on the Inter defence and their best chance came when Khedira was free at the edge of the small box but sidefooted his placed effort on the far post, Handanovic rooted to the spot.

It stayed 0-0 until the final whistle but no doubt Mancini's point, which takes the nerazzurri to joint second one point off the top, tastes much sweeter than Juventus' which ensures to keep them just out of the top 10 for another week.
 
Tremendous game. Blood and thunder from first to last whistle. Juventus collected six yellows along the way.
 
Mid table affair. I am going for 1-1. Does Stephen Ireland ever play?
