This is the first time I'm seeing Bayern play this season, and I must say, although they won they really look like a very ordinary team. Last season they were one of the best teams I've seen in recent history and that's including Barcelona. No one could stop them, they were a f*cking machine. It's still early days but I think that the overrated Guardiola and his possession football will never be a success with Bayern. I think he's forgetting that he doesn't have Messi anymore.
Watching the Palace Sunderland game, and they both look pretty bad, but my goodness the new Sunderland keeper is absolutely awful. If they get relegated it's completely our fault
Well we're now the only team with 3 clean sheets since Spurs have just conceded. IMO Arsenal are a bigger threat to us but I really hope they destroy Tottenham in this one. For us it might be best if they draw, but I'm really hoping that Tottenham lose. And it looks likely so far.
Spurs look a mess right now. Yeah, they'll get better, but they are in no way near as jointed as we are.

I won't celebrate Rafa going........ but I will be over the moon if Dalglish comes in. League within 2 years if he gets the job, AND YOU CAN QUOTE ME ON THAT.
It was hardly a foul to begin with, never mind it was a yard or two outside the box. The penalty was a mixture of things that you will see being given only at Old Trafford.
never a pen in a million years that, for a start it was outside the box and young did his patented dive as soon as the defender was anywhere near him, infact when you see the angle from behind the goal young pretty much instigated the contact by slightly shaping his run towards the defender instead of the ball. how refs cant (to use cricket vernacular) `pick` his diving technique is beyond me, he springs up in the air, flails and spreads his legs (in order to make contact with anyone nearby) and almost lands head or at least chest first. he does it practically everytime he`s near the box yet refs keep on pointing to the spot. you could see the ref wasnt sure and neither was the linesman but still he gave the pen.
manure are manure woeful game and that decision from moss was a joke, if he had to ask the lineman for help then he wasnt 100% convinced so shouldnt have given it. ashley young is renowned for diving and con's a ref yet again is the FA not taking retrospective action against diver's this year ? palace where only looking for a point and fell apart in the final 3rd everytime but no way would i rate manure as title contender's this season. they will be under pressure for top 4
