*Official* English Football Season 2012-13

[GIMH]

Quite the counter attack.

 

[Scaly piscine]

Keeper was useless by the way.

 

[Meridio]

Well, didn't pick that. Casillas done far too easily imo.

 

[Uppercut]

Went to cover the good finish and got done by the crappy backpass. Didn't do the research on Dzeko's finishing.

 

[Uppercut]

Great finish. Dzeko's goal probably justifies bringing him on for Silva but still, I wonder why Mancini left Marcelo unmarked.

 

[Scaly piscine]

That goal reminded me of watching England in the Euros. So deep, they're letting people measure shots from barely outside the box.

 

[GIMH]

Meanwhile, whites storming to another home win. Gutted to miss this one but I'll take being top of the league as a consolation.

 

[Eds]

Just heard about United's chants at the weekend. FMD.

 

[Uppercut]

Citeh really going for this, leaving men up every time Madrid attack.

 

[Uppercut]

Great free kick. Casillas not particularly impressive again, though.

 

[Meridio]

Haha. Crazy game.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Sounds like I was watching the wrong one in terms of excitement. Montpellier had more ball than you'd like 2nd half, but their finishing was ordinary in the extreme. 2-1 away at the French champions (albeit pretty average looking ones) you'd take tho.

Diaby's Vieria impression going from strength to strength, which is nice.

 

[GIMH]

Incredible. Real deserved the win on the balance of play but pretty shattering for City.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Hart's had a ****ing mare for the winner, hasn't he? Might've done better with the second too.

 

[GIMH]

Indeed

 

[TT Boy]

Hart will get the blame for the third but who was that dumb Citeh player who ducked and let the shoot through, Kompany?

Madrid were good value for the win. Should have been 3 up in the first 20 minutes. Yaya Toure miss aside was immense, Madrid couldn’t cope with him.

Elsewhere, how good is Nuno Gomes? Taken him to the age of 36 to find out the Championship is the level for him. Another 30 goals and Rhodes at 8 million isn’t that bad.

 

[Uppercut]

LOL Mourinho. "Do you have any sympathy for Manchester City?" "No."

 

[BoyBrumby]

Getting fond of that third person too, eh? "Madrid can lose; Mourinho can lose"

 

[flibbertyjibber]

Wow, a crushing win for Shrewsbury. Who needs strikers?

 

[Scaly piscine]

Hart will get the blame for the third but who was that dumb Citeh player who ducked and let the shoot through, Kompany?

Yep, I haven't seen a good angle of it, but if Hart is completely unsighted until it goes past Kompany he has very little chance of saving it. He won't pick up the trajectory properly and the ball will be almost past him before he reacts.
