BREAKING TEAM NEWS

City boss Roberto Mancini drops striker Mario Balotelli and recalls Carlos Tevez. Vincent Kompany has a groin injury so Kolo Toure starts.

BBC. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Krul saves from Tevez!

Excellent passing.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Williamson booked.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Yaya nearly does it again, playing Nasri in. Nasri's pass goes harmlessly across goal though.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nasri hits the post! Aguero has his shot blocked very near the line by Williamson!

It's so easy for Citeh to play around the Barcodes.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Cisse. :haha:

Pub team player.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Coloccini and Gutierrez struggling to take Yaya down, together. :haha:

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

what has happened to cisse?

from world beater to toilet cleaner.

every touch he's had he's miscontrolled the ball.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Clichy. :haha:

He just can't help himself. Could've initiated a counter-attack, nearly set Newcastle up instead.

[Mr. Lahey]

Dzeko with an absolute shite ball there on that 3 on 1

[McNamara That Ghost...]

what has happened to cisse?

from world beater to toilet cleaner.

every touch he's had he's miscontrolled the ball.

Any of these three things - two strikers played up front is incompatible. He is suffering from Ba mainly being next to him rather than when Ba was going out wide for him at the end of last season.

Or, he scored a lot of very good goals but ultimately, a string of flukes.

Barcodes 1-3 Citeh, FT.

[Mr. Lahey]

Yaya Toure is a beast - if anyone is the "next" Vieira its him.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

what has happened to cisse?

from world beater to toilet cleaner.

every touch he's had he's miscontrolled the ball.

2nd season syndrome tbh.

[Marc Overmars]

Yaya Toure is a beast - if anyone is the "next" Vieira its him.

He's pretty much playing at the same level now anyway as when Vieira was 29. Arguably even better.

[Mr. Lahey]

He's pretty much playing at the same level now anyway as when Vieira was 29. Arguably even better.

agreed, he dominates on both ends of the field and I would be inclined to say he is better than PV going forward. I hope Ivory Coast go all the way to the final so City are without him for quite some time.

[Marc Overmars]

That would also mean Gervais being out of the picture for a while.

Killing 2 birds with 1 stone. :bow:

[Cripps_orig]

We play City in January. Will he be gone by then? Imagine Yaya v our powderpuff girls in midfield :haha: They would be slaughtered

[McNamara That Ghost...]

I dunno, I don't think he is quite as athletic as Vieira was - in the sense Yaya can only do it two or three times in a game but when he does, it's usually devastating.

And yeah we won't play against Yaya, not that he has been that good against us when he has.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Yaya Toure is a beast - if anyone is the "next" Vieira its him.

He's awesome.

Diaby :haha:

Wumger :doh:

[Mr. Lahey]

I dunno, I don't think he is quite as athletic as Vieira was - in the sense Yaya can only do it two or three times in a game but when he does, it's usually devastating.

And yeah we won't play against Yaya, not that he has been that good against us when he has.

I agree with this actually and I think Vieira was able to get up and down the pitch alot quicker than Yaya. He can cover alot more ground IMO, I would still take PV over him but its close.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Maccy could've scored for QPR, missed a sitter instead. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

I agree with this actually and I think Vieira was able to get up and down the pitch alot quicker than Yaya. He can cover alot more ground IMO, I would still take PV over him but its close.

It definitely is close. I think Yaya's passing is probably a bit better too.

I first went 'wow' with regards to Yaya in his performance against Man Utd in the Champions League semi-final (particularly the second leg).

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Norwich 1-0 Wigan, Pilkington!

[Marc Overmars]

Bentekkers. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Weimann had a chance to make it 0-2. Johnson fuck-up for Liverpool.

Al-Habsi drops one for Pilkington, misses from a yard or so out according to Thommo.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Stoke 0-1 Everton, Shawcross OG. :doh:

[Cripps_orig]

Wtf?

And i thought we were bad

Liverpool :haha:

Surely the end for Rodgers?

[Özil's Panoramic View]

Liverpool 0-3 Villa

Oh dear

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

should have gone for lambert tbh

[Cripps_orig]

That is Kenwyn Jones first league goal since August 2011 :lol:

[Cripps_orig]

Liverpool v Villa first on MOTD then?

[Gervinho's Forehead]

Liverpool v Villa first on MOTD then?

They'll probably shove it to the back end somewhere to avoid embarrassment.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Man Utd 3-0 Sunderland, Wazza tap-in.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Fellaini headbutts Shawcross! :haha:

On purpose?

:haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

On purpose?

:haha:

Yup!

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Yup!

Well you can't fault his taste.

He will surely get a 3 match ban at least though. Even better...

[Özil's Panoramic View]

Man Utd 3-0 Sunderland, Wazza tap-in.

RVP assist. :sick:

No way the Mancs gonna surrender the lead. Their attack cannot be staved off by any of the shit defences in the league.

And they'll get even more potent when Kagawa returns.

Not even agent Theo watering down their attack, when he goes there in January, will ruin it for them.

Not even agent Theo watering down their attack, when he goes there in January, will ruin it for them.We all saw how good RVC and Theo were last couple of seasons as a partnership. If Theo goes there, they are winning the treble

[Gervinho's Forehead]

QPR 2-0 Fulham, Taarabt again.

Shit we're gonna have a fight on our hands if this keeps up.

[Cripps_orig]

Harry is going to do it

Cheeky bid as our new manager?

He is a gooner after all : ollie:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Man Utd 3-1 Sunderland, Campbell.

DREAM GOAL!

[Cripps_orig]

Stoke v Everton
Controversy at the Britannia. It looks like Everton's Marouane Fellaini has head-butted Ryan Shawcross following a corner. It wasn't spotted by any of the officials, though, and so no action is taken.

Doubt Pulis will complain about it

[Gervinho's Forehead]

Doubt Pulis will complain about it

Well he's stoke and they don't complain.

[Gervinho's Forehead]

Yeah a bit harsh. All ive ever seen him in is Blackadder and when he appears on Wossy and hes alright in that. Dont watch his other boring ass shows

Fellaini. :haha:

[Injury Time]

Out gheling Stoke :bow:

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Moyes has actually come out and condemned it :faint:

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

at what point do we start worrying about villa? a decent transfer window and they'll be up there.

[Cripps_orig]

Fellaini has to be the biggest Must Get of all time

Arsenal legend without even playing for us. Only the 2nd ever player to have that accolade

[cheesy bites]

at what point do we start worrying about villa? a decent transfer window and they'll be up there.

Villa? lol

When someone takes Benteke in January, they'll do well to avoid the drop.

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

private joke. i wasnt actually being serious.

[Cripps_orig]

at what point do we start worrying about villa? a decent transfer window and they'll be up there.
December 17th

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

'Joe Allen was woeful and I am getting annoyed with his safe passes side to side each game thought BR said that he had more to his locker when he will be playing higher up the pitch in one of the interviews.Also as other have said why do we try to play the middle then pass out wide to johnson to cross ( his crosses were shit ) Andy Carroll ?Inept in the final third.'

so liverpool fans agree that allen a poor mans arteta. who is a poor mans denilson.

so denilson > allen.

[Cripps_orig]

I dont see the point of players such as Allen and Arteta

They dont do anything

Pointless players

[Cripps_orig]

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers: "It's a disappointing result and performance from us. I don't know where that came from as it's not been like us. We were careless with our final ball and didn't end up taking our chances.

"We will have to take that as a bad day at the office and move on. I felt today we probably weren't quite sharp enough. It was a clear penalty [when Ciaran Clark pulled Daniel Agger's shirt] and if you get that it is 2-1 and the pressure can start to build. But they got their third and we went a bit flat. Overall, we didn't do enough and we must learn from it and move on."King Kenny has taught him well in the art of blaming decisions

[Gervinho's Forehead]

King Kenny has taught him well in the art of blaming decisions

MOTD will side with him tonight.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Allen has been pretty dreadful, so far.

It would be nice for him to sit out a few games, but he's a bit of a teacher's pet so that isn't going to happen.

Oh well.

[Gervinho's Forehead]

Allen has been pretty dreadful, so far.

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Throw in Walcott and halve the fee and I'll see what I can do.

I was going to sign up on the Oatcake to say Fellaini isn't that sort of player, but they have disabled new registrations. :lol:

Benteke :bow: :bow: :bow:.

What a monster.

Lambert :bow:.

Liverpool :haha:.

Ben Rodgers :haha:.

Norwich :bow:.

Arsenal the kingmakers :bow:.

Fellaini :bow: his best header this season. Although, I feel his chest would have had more impact.

I was going to sign up on the Oatcake to say Fellaini isn't that sort of player, but they have disabled new registrations. :lol:

would anyone take him back if the opportunity came about?

[GP]

nasri was brilliant today before his injury.

would anyone take him back if the opportunity came about?

Obviously not.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Sunderland defending :haha:

[Cripps_orig]

Fuck yes we'd take Nasri back. Better than all our midfielders. Anyway Stoke on last again :haha: Even when there are major talking points in their games, they are last

[Cripps_orig]

Howard :haha:

[Cripps_orig]

Didn't realise it was 3 times Fellaini totally owned Shawcross :haha: Shawcrosses reaction to the first head butt is embarrassing

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Just about to watch MotD now.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Yaya's pass. :cloud9:

Hleb would be proud.

Kudos to Nasri for setting up a FIFA goal.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Downing was one of Liverpool's better players today apparently. I think that might say it all.

Benteke. :bow:

What a tank.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What happened to fans knowing when the ball has hit the side netting?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Villa's second goal was superb. One of the best team goals this season tbf.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Shearer-bot: He was big, he was strong.

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

rooney rvp partnership unreal as usual.

makes me throw up watching him in that shirt.

footballing reasons :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Who needs a midfield for the Premier League? Bastards.

If they go the season without drawing a game they will surely beat the points record, I think they would only lose six at worst.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What a save that was from Schwarzer to deny Cisse.

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

fellaini :lol:

the only bad thing out of that is that shawcross isnt out for 3 months.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fellaini usually does the damage with his elbows. He should stick to that.

He can save that for Goodison though I suppose.

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

would love him here.

a real rough player who will put his foot in and do the dirty work.

no pussying around like the current lot.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bramble trying to work out what RVP will do is a completely unfair mismatch.

MON. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

would love him here.

a real rough player who will put his foot in and do the dirty work.

no pussying around like the current lot.

He is pure filth. An absolute scrote.

He's Belgian too, which is even better.

Vermaelen. :lol:

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

He is pure filth. An absolute scrote.

He's Belgian too, which is even better.

Vermaelen. :lol:

where would you play him? further up the field or the bone crusher role?

or go pure wenget mode and play him left back?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

I'd rather have him kill people in midfield, he would still get opportunities to charge forward like a maniac. We have Big Sexy to lump it up to for any other time.

All of this is predicated on Ramsey's bandy legs not getting in the way.

Great goal by Maloney.

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

drop arteta.

bone crusher alongside cocky english asbo.

:bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Wigan are doing it again, edging closer and closer to relegation. Not too long until Martinez turns them in to one of the best teams in the league, for a month, when everyone thinks they are finally doomed.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

What a finish from Shawcross. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

How the hell did Osman miss that? :haha:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Fellaini. :bow:

Funny how he looked away to see if the coast was clear.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Everton don't really win many games for a side having a great season.

Fellaini hit Shawcross in the face too? :haha:

Getting away for Christmas early. :bow:

That will be a topped up ban a la Barton, surely?

[GP]

Stoke fans sure are getting worked up over this for a club that don't complain.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

I wonder if Pulis will now consider this more important than focusing on diving.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Stoke fans sure are getting worked up over this for a club that don't complain.

:haha: Pubis

Someone should tell him Fellaini is not that type of player tbh.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Tottenham: Lloris, Walker, Gallas, Vertonghen, Naughton, Lennon, Sandro, Dembele, Dempsey, Adebayor, Defoe.
Subs: Friedel, Huddlestone, Parker, Sigurdsson, Livermore, Townsend, Caulker.

Swansea: Tremmel, Tiendalli, Chico, Williams, Davies, Britton, Ki, Dyer, de Guzman, Routledge, Michu.
Subs: Cornell, Graham, Monk, Shechter, Moore, Agustien, Richards.

Referee: Mike Dean (Wirral)

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Michu with a great block to deny Defoe. :bow:

[Shaqiri Is Boss]

Downing was one of Liverpool's better players today apparently. I think that might say it all.

Benteke. :bow:

What a tank.
Quite. We weren't that bad, we didn't do anything horrific we just didn't seem to do anything at all, and Villa did. Repeatedly.

He also says he's allowed to leave in January.

Rodgers needs the balls to drop Gerrard, which is a big ask for anyone, and to drop Allen, but he won't do that.

I don't know what Sahin and Assaidi have done to him but it must be personal.

The main problem for us is too many fans think we're better than we actually are, and still cling on to the idea we have a god given right to win everything all of the time, and can't accept that we are a mid-to-upper table team now. But that's not to say it's a terminal decline.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Michu goes for glory from miles out. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

0-0 HT.

EVERTON’S Marouane Fellaini is facing a possible NINE-GAME ban after headbutting Stoke skipper Ryan Shawcross. And he is also set to be fined £150,000 — two weeks’ wages — by boss David Moyes, who is still fuming with the Belgian.
FA chiefs will today review TV footage and are likely to hit Fellaini with a three-match suspension at the very least.
But they also have the power to take other offences into account.
Fellaini was also caught on camera trying to BUTT Shawcross a second time, aiming an ELBOW in his direction and SMASHING him in the face as the pair grappled throughout the second half.
FA chiefs will almost certainly slap the Toffees star with a retrospective three-match ban, as his butt on Shawcross would be considered a red card offence on its own.
But if they feel the other incidents are just as serious, then the FA could also hand down multiple suspensions.
Much will depend on ref Mark Halsey, who missed Fellaini’s blatant headbutt.
But he will be shown TV footage today and asked whether he saw any of the other incidents.
And that will dictate whether the player will get an extended ban.
That could mean a total ban of six to nine games — ruling the player out until well into next year.
There is a precedent for such action, as the FA showed when punishing QPR’s Joey Barton at the end of last season.
Barton was handed a 12-match ban after being found guilty of two counts of violent conduct in the Premier League title decider at Manchester City.
Angry Moyes admitted the Fellaini incident was “not acceptable”.
And he is not about to let the matter lie with Fellaini, who is set to cop the club’s maximum fine.
The Everton manager added: “We will take the punishment if it is given.”
Fellaini, 25, issued an apology to Shawcross on Saturday but that is likely to come too late for the player who will not escape trial by TV.
Everton defender Sylvain Distin, meanwhile, hopes the FA takes a consistent line on what he called “wrestling” by Stoke players at set-pieces.
Distin said: “They just catch you all the time and grab you.
“It’s wrestling, it was tough. I think the ref could have a look at it. There is no consistency.”
