2011/12 Barclay's Premier League Thread

Apologies didnt want to start a massive debate...
Totally agree with your points about Arteta and Liverpool having some supporters who are normal genuine fans like yourself. Each team does have a minority of bad fans, just Liverpool more than any other in regards to racism in ENGLAND. If we are talking europe that DEFINATELY includes Juve (I can tell from personal experience) in that having 'ratbag' supporters especially with regards to racism, thinking about it all of Italia for that matter, take for example the abuse Juan from Roma received from Lazio ultras last weekend. Its difficult to explain to people not live at games as a lot of songs from the crowds are dubbed out for television audiences round the globe ie the ten german bombers England song about Germans by England national fans for one...!!
The report I mentioned had to be retracted by UEFA after Platini decided it was not in the best interests to publish that naming and blaming one club, Im sure you can easily find it if you search on google!! We all know Platini's views on English football and Liverpool in particular though and you can understand that...
Personally I dont have anything against scousers, although Im not black. I think the image the club has portrayed itself in its response to the Adeyami and Evra incidents is very poor though.
As for Millwall being worse than Liverpool, thats a very easy question to answer IMO. Liverpool fans on average are a lot more racist for obvious geographical reasons in England compared to the Bushwackers, while Millwall fans are more the 'stereotypical' hooligans who would have Liverpool without any trouble as most other firms. Only the ICF and Leeds fans would be able to compete with them outside the ground for that accolade.
fantastic signing...4 year contract as well (£100k a week). dare I say it...replacing Van Persie after Arsenal have let his contract run down...? hope not, would be a good strike force together.
Mancini has also stated he believes Van Persie will stay this summer at Arsenal rather than joining Manchester City. The Arsenal board really need to renew his contract asap though.

What a joke. 2 of the officials out on OT today should be benched.
The referee has been appalling all night, sat on his whistle and wasn't letting the game flow, so frustrating, then he gives Bilbao a freekick in their own half after Evra lost his boot, with United on the edge of the box with a 50/50 chance of scoring, then shortly after the freekick they score. The linesman missed a clear offside that led to their goal, it's not bloody good enough. Not happy with the officials BUT United have played bad football tonight. Time to focus on the Premier League now.

Didn't Evra pass the ball with his boot off to keep play going? Why didn't he kick it out?
City were poor today vs Swansea. Seems to be when we're off we lose 1-0, when the rags are off they find a way to win... could well be the difference this year
