EPL Discussion 2011-2012

United win at the Lane once again.
Down to a 2 horse race for the title.
Was great to see Young fit and firing again

[Jim05]

Villas-Boas is gone Roberto Di Matteo to coach for the rest of the season.

8 managers in 8 years, what a disgrace Abramovich is.
The Chavs are the laughing stock of football with a fool like that in charge

Don't know why I even bother watching the Spurs v Utd games

I thought we actually played really well for the majority of the game. Utd took their chances beautifully, which is the sign of a truly great side.

The second half was a great contest, scoreboard aside.

We are a million miles away from the top though. We've clearly overachieved this season and had gotten miles ahead of ourselves with a string of good results.

Will be very happy to finish 3rd, but there's a dirty steam train behind us...

I though you guys outplayed us, we were under the pump in the first half. The disallowed goal may of changed things, 50/50 call IMO, then Rooney hit you with a sucker punch right on the break.
The differance in the two sides is the squad depth, you need to have depth to win the league, you guys havnt the depth to cover Raf and Bale where as we can call upon guys like Young to step up in case of injury

[Jim05]

So now the Chavs players have won the battle and got the manager the flick are they going to stand up for the final part of the season.
Maybe Roman can flick the bunch of under achieving players at seasons end rather than having a revolving door of managers. Chavski have had the luxury of some of the best managers in world football and keep failing yet the same players that have too much to say are still there. Players can not run the club

Agreed. I thought the disallowed goal was probably the right call as much as it hurts.

Rooney now has 6 goals in his last 7 games v Spurs.

I think our depth has improved greatly, but agree the overall quality of our squad is still lacking.

as much as we dont see eye to eye DA, i dont agree with you again on your spurs over achieveing.....i believe you have done what was capable. Your depth is not great and without bale you dont seem to play well.I think the results and performances you have displayed is what you can do and no more.

very unlucky against man city at their ground with the soft penalty given and balotelli being the dirty scum bag that he is got away with murder during that game. Game against us you just dropped your heads that was all, happens to the best of us. You will smash Chelsea in the next week im sure.
Game against man utd you actually outplayed them but unlucky as they scored from nothing.

(i better go to the doctor as i am talking up tottingham )

What is going on?

[cossi11]

Looking forward to tonights game even though it starts at 4am. I am going to stick it out and stay up. My boys have been playing some good football beating Man City and Chelsea at home recently, wouldn't mind adding spurs to that list
Goodluck DA and fish

[Bully]

and you did add the spuds to the list

Well played Cossi.
We are a rabble at the moment.

Heaps good at maths.

49 points, + 3 points for a win = 52??
Tottingham are on 53 points.
this equals to ONE point difference.........am i missing something ??

Just my compliment.
Did you break out a calculator to check your adding?

[Jim05]

United up 1-0 at half, well taken goal by Rooney.
Should be up by more, have dominated Albion. Young has been outstanding, good to see him fit and firing.
Swansea and City 0-0 at the half. The Jacks had a very early penalty but Sinclair's effort was one of the worst penalty attempts ive seen in a while.

[Jim05]

Albion should of had a penalty early in 2nd half, dont know how the linesman missed it.
10 minutes later they are down to 10 men after Olsson collects his 2nd yellow

[Jim05]

Young wins a penalty and Rooney puts it away. 2-0 in the 70th

[Jim05]

The Jacks have scored in the 83rd
