A few observations:

- Great officiating :tu - Redknapp has to be jealous

- Lescott, dude, just shave your head already, you really freak me out

- Great match

- Clichy is really dumb; Kompany was well positioned, no need for that retarded foul

- Manchester United has a shot at the title!

- Oh yeah, and the duo of Ian Darke & Steve McManaman is great :tu

Mystery over Bridge bust up

December 13, 2011

By ESPNsoccernet staff

Chelsea and Manchester City players were reportedly involved in an altercation after their Premier League clash at Stamford Bridge on Monday evening.
Mancini on Clattenburg


• Mancini bemoans ref (http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story/_/id/995889/roberto-mancini-bemoans-clattenburg-display) :lol


It has been suggested by City boss Roberto Mancini that Chelsea players, high on emotion after a crucial win which reduced the gap at the top of the table to seven points, and in particular Ashley Cole may have been at the centre of the incident.
When asked what had happened, Mancini said: "I don't know if Cole said something. I don't know what he said. I don't understand. But if the Chelsea players are saying we are a top team, for us that is important. There were really lively because they beat a top team. It's normal. It's important for them."
Blues boss Andre Villas-Boas denied the claims about Cole, saying: "It is untrue, it is unfair. There is always some troublemaker in our wins."
Mancini also took the chance to take a sarcastic swipe at referee Mark Clattenburg's performance, with a series of questionable decisions including Jose Bosingwa's tackle in the box on David Silva not being adjudged as a foul. Chelsea were given a spot-kick for a handball by Joleon Lescott while Gael Clichy was sent off for two yellow cards.
"I agree with all of his decisions,'' Mancini said. "There was a big penalty. There wasn't a fan inside the stadium who didn't see it. But the referee was very close and he didn't.
"I don't know (about Chelsea's penalty). The Chelsea player shot very hard from five or six metres. It is difficult for the defender. But, at that moment, the referee was really sure. It was after the sending-off, that the game totally changed.
"It doesn't change anything for us, because we knew before this we should lose a game at some point. It is unusual that a team comes to Chelsea and plays like we did in the first half because we dominated the game. We didn't deserve to lose but we did.
"The season is very long and very hard. Now we should prepare for another difficult game, against Arsenal.''
Meanwhile, Mancini said he will take no action against Balotelli for breaking a 48-hour pre-game curfew by going for a curry in Manchester on Saturday night.

[quentin_compson]

Well, the foul on Silva was a clear-cut penalty. And with 2-0 down, this game might very well have been over for Chelsea.

Neymar isn't going anywhere near Barca. You think a kid with that kind of talent wants to live under the shadow of Messi's? If Neymar goes to Europe, it'll be for a team whose star player is of lower profile than he is. That's the only way it can work out IMO

Arsene Wenger will decide this week whether or not to loan Thierry Henry for two months.

[ALVAREZ6]

United win and City draw...the clubs from Manchester are tied again.

[lefty]

Excellent

Imagine if the title is decided during the last round

[ALVAREZ6]

Well...at the end of the season they play each other, April 28. I wasn't aware that they're also playing on January 8 in the FA Cup.

I think United has better chances, if they stop losing players due to injury, to win this title. They simply know what it takes to win and I think they have the advantage mentally. City has been cruising at the top for a while now, they are under pressure to win a title after all of the big spending this summer, and United has momentum as they are climbing back to the top. The 6-1 victory was clearly a fluke win for City...United had a defender carded off and simply didn't play anywhere near their standards; Rooney was the only player that showed up that day.

[Muser]

Ladies and gentleman I give you Howard Webb.

Does anyone know of a season pass for the EPL? I'm tired of watching crap streams and would like to watch high quality matches online.

I think the only option we have here in the US is foxsoccer.tv (http://www.foxsoccer.tv/home)

They have a $10 trial pass for the first month. "Try FOXSoccer.tv at just $10 for your first month followed by an annual repeating $169.99 subscription, unless cancelled." (http://www.foxsoccer.tv/home)

[Vici]

Thank NA,

I went ahead and did that late last night. I was a bit disappointed in the quality but it's better than downloading torrents and watching shitty stream that drop periodically. The ability to watch replays is where the value really comes in.

Thierry Henry 'certain' to join Arsenal on loan, says Arsene Wenger

Thierry Henry will sign a two-month loan with Arsenal if insurance can be arranged with the New York Red Bulls, Arsene Wenger has confirmed.

The former Arsenal captain, 34, has been training with the club during the Major League Soccer off-season.

Gunners boss Wenger said: "For two months it certainly will happen. I don't take care of the agreement and insurance and that is not completed.

"We cannot announce anything [now] because the paperwork is not done."

With Gervinho and Marouane Chamakh set to depart for the Africa Cup of Nations in January, the Frenchman would offer back-up to captain Robin van Persie.

Henry is Arsenal's all-time leading goalscorer, with 226 goals in 370 appearances for the club before he moved to Barcelona in June 2007.

Wenger said: "To cover for two months is ideal. He has the experience and the quality. He knows the club and can help the players on and off the pitch.

"He has exceptional talent and is a very intelligent man. It can only be positive.

"He still has class, pace and quality. He is here to help the club he loves. But we must not put too much pressure on him, he is 34. He needs two good weeks' work. He is here to help - not suddenly be the main player."

The French forward does not have to return to the New York Red Bulls until March, which means he could feature in seven Premier League games, including key encounters against Manchester United and Tottenham, as well as FA Cup ties and the first leg of Arsenal's Champions League last-16 clash against AC Milan.

If agreement is reached with the Red Bulls, he could feature in Arsenal's FA Cup third-round tie against Leeds on 9 January.

I guess it's a good move. Can't be worse than Chamakh.

The "best" thing was Squillaci heading it straight to Zamora for the second goal. You couldn't make that shit up ...
On the other hand, the goals once again showed how poor Arsenal are at defending as a team. Once a second or third ball comes back into the penalty box after a semi-clearance, they just don't know what to do and the overall positioning is really, really poor.
It also didn't help that Arsenal weren't able to put any pressure whatsoever on Fulham in the second half. This team isn't exactly made for defending a 1-0 lead.

[ALVAREZ6]

I'm officially on the City bandwagon, Kun jersey finally came in the mail today after a long wait...but perfect timing for today's match.

They haven't had the back four sorted out for like 4 years now - they are fundamentally flawed in their defense. Dropped points like this is why I can't see them finishing in the top 4.

I didn't say MLS stars aren't leaving. In fact, go back to the Donovan Everton thread. One of said it was possible and one of us didn't even know MLS was on break. :lol:lol

NY has no reason to sell Henry. He's worth to them more as a player than anything Arsenal would want to pay. Of course MLS stars would rather play overseas in better leagues. That doesn't mean the ones under contract get that choice. Donovan is a great example. I'm sure he'd rather be playing for Everton but the Galaxy are better off keeping him than selling him for a few mil.

Geez, I didn't see the game live and I knew the Henry goal was coming since I read this thread beforehand but it still gave me goosebumps. From anyone out of the starters, he's already a better striker not named RVP. Walcott would have gotten that shot blocked, Ramsey would have sent that ball 200 ft into the stands and Gervinho would have danced around with the ball killing any moment and surprise :lol

I know I'm a late comer as an Arsenal fan and I never really watched him play when he was with them but what happened yesterday was special.

I was on /r/gunners on reddit and was looking at the injury table for the team. Supposedly Diaby, Vermaelen, Sagna, and Gibbs will all return by no later than month's end.

He kinda looks like Vince Carter here

I guess that answers my question on how Vince Carter would look with an Arsenal jersey... :lol

Tottenham vs Everton at 1:45 CST. Is Donovan going to play today?

Oh yeah, Citeh and Liverpool face off at that same time as well.

[Muser]

Don't see why Donovan wouldn't play, he's arguably Everton's best player alongside Jagielka.


Tottenham still gonna get deep in that ass though.

And City.

:lol no suarez

[Muser]

:lmao Liverpool are trying to sell Carroll back to newcastle for 10 million

:lol admitting it was a shitty buy
:lol losing 25 million on him
:lol newcastle not even gonna offer 1 million for him

[Muser]

That's how you take a penalty Mr Lampard.

[MannyIsGod]

I really don't find it hard to believe someone wouldn't know when the MLS was on break.. :lol I can't even see a joke in that.

No, the joke is in someone who pretty much knows nothing about MLS trying to make comments on MLS players. :lol

[MannyIsGod]

Donovan is playing, but he's looked Meh so far. Everton as a whole looks terrible.

[lefty]

Citeh


lol Citeh


They Citeh ....


Lol Citeh .........

Jesus, City were awful tonight. Hart was a beast though.

Or when all fails, go into twitter, search "*insert name of team you want* stream"

[NASpurs]

I don't even know what game to watch since they're all jumbled up together. I'll try the Chelsea game.

Donovan played well against villa. Hustled everywhere and provided a perfect Xavi like through ball to find Anichebe for the goal. MOTM for me

[MannyIsGod]

I only watched the first half and all I remember thinking was that Landon left Barrett in the US only to go to Europe and deal with Saha blowing every set up with a bad touch or shot in the same way.

2 assists for Donovan in 4 games on a really bad Everton team. I'm happy he's succeeding.

[Muser]

Yeah Everton wasn't the best club Landon could of gone to, they have the worst strikers in the EPL and that's saying something.

I'm surprised a team like Fulham didn't go for him. Him and Dempsey would have tons of chemistry.

[Muser]

Does he love L.A? He has the talent to play on a decent team somewhere in Europe.

[MannyIsGod]

Landon has said that the only team he'll play for in the EPL is the Toffee's. I think if it was simply up to him he'd have stayed with Everton after the first loan but LA wasn't having that. At this point there's probably no way Everton could afford to buy him.

I'm a huge Galaxy fan but I'd not be the least it upset if Landon left for Europe.

[Muser]

He's staying with Galaxy then, Evertons ownership are the Donald Sterling of the EPL. No way they shell out the asking price for him.

[TDMVPDPOY]

lpc and totts last night fkn fail big time...fck them

[Muser]

Swansea are legit tbh

[quentin_compson]

Swansea are legit tbh

Yeah, and Arsenal looking like shit once again.

[Muser]

Shouldn't of been a penalty though, if anything it's an Arsenal free kick.

[Muser]

:lol

[Muser]

Walcott actually didn't fuck it up :wow

Wow, that was some embarrassing stuff.

Frimpong had to be carried off on a stretcher with an oxygen mask, looked nasty.

[Libri]

Dempsey with a hat trick!

[lefty]

Arsenal vs MU tomorrow


Live on FOX

[MannyIsGod]

Yeah - I think its cool Fox is putting it live.

[lefty]

Yeah - I think its cool Fox is putting it live.

Especially for us Canadians, since we dont have FSC (but we have regular Fox)

[AidanNelson2009]

Arsenal 0 - 4 Man. United. Rooney with a hat-trick and Nani to score goal of the season.

[quentin_compson]

I don't have a good feeling about this ...

[Muser]

These two games won't be the domination from Manchester that they were before but it will be the same outcome.

WTF is going on with the transfer window, normally there are deals going down left right and centre. Disappointed.

[Muser]

How Dzeko keeps getting into the starting lineup is a mystery

[Muser]

:lmao

[quentin_compson]

Great second half between Spurs and City. PL football at its best. :toast

[Vici]

That's a tough loss to swallow.How Balotelli is allowed to stomp someone is beyond me. Please help my sanity and tell me that the Spurs aren't always on the wrong end of every controversial call. It's getting hard to take... week after week it's the same shit.

[Muser]

Defoe bringing back bad memories of euro 96.

[NASpurs]

Feels weird watching the pregame on FOX with the FOX theme and everything.

Can't complain though. It's a good thing for the game over here in the States.

[Muser]

Good to see Chamberlain start, he's a real star for the future.

[NASpurs]

Hopefully this is Ox's coming out game.

Arsenal's defense and midfield has me nervous as fuck though. I don't think Ramsey can't have a Jekyll and Hyde game.

[NASpurs]

Speaking of Ox, great run he had there. Hopefully there's more where that came from.

[NASpurs]

Walcott with the soccer version of an ankle breaker :lol (not laughing at Jones' injury. The dude is in a lot of pain.)

[NASpurs]

:lmao WTF kind of shot was that Walcott

[NASpurs]

Ramsey need to pass that fucking ball. Looked like a newbord calf barely able to stand up that last possession. Stumbling all over the place.

[Muser]

:sleep

[NASpurs]

:bang Ramsey again.

It would be nice too if the team looks more for AOC. He's the one making things happen on the right side of the field.

They've tried to pass him the ball a couple of times which resulted in miscues.

[Muser]

United turning the screw.

[NASpurs]

As much as I love Song, he's not playing that well today. He just fell on defense and that was a close call on that side of the field.
