and Ramires is defintely at Chelsea now. In other news Jose Mourinho has said he would use Benzema as trade bait to lure Ashley Cole to Real.

Warney · Aug 8, 2010

Can't wait for tonight guys, The Community Shield! Man U v Chelsea of course. Starts Midnight EST

ljandkg · Aug 8, 2010

Can't wait for the season to start. Mancini is looking to sign Balotelli and Milner this week. Personally I'll take Balotelli - AV can keep Milner....

Goal.com Predictions: Chelsea 2 United 1
My Predictions: Chelsea 2 United 2 (United to win on Penalties)

Is there any where to watch it?
Isn't Evra playing?

Warney · Aug 8, 2010

nope Evra has been given another week off by SAF after his side's dismal WC.

Chelsea favourites to win but going on preseason form they haven't done that well, same as United, but it's preseason so nobody cares!

wow goal.com has been wrong for a change, United's XI plus subs

VDS, Vidic, Evans, Fabio, Valencia, Scholes, Carrick, Park, Owen, Rooney

Subs: Fletcher, Nani, Hernandez, Smailing, Giggs, Berbatov, Kuszczack

---------- Post added 08-08-2010 at 10:49 PM ----------

United up 1-0 at Half-Time, great goal to Valencia, creative from Rooney! A few of my mates (mainly Chelsea fans) commented on Hilario and how scared they are of conceding... I now understand why! He looks shaky

---------- Post added 09-08-2010 at 06:23 AM ----------

great win to United, and did anyone see Hernandez's goal?

rishgoon · Aug 9, 2010

Watched about the first 20mins then crashed - United looked solid from what I saw (which is always good reason to go to bed!) Always amusing to hear the boos for the returning England WC players. Lampard seemed to dodge it, with Rooney, Terry and Cashley copping the most...

Yeah that was crazy, i reckon Terry and Rooney coped the most booing.

Hopefully United can take their relatively good preseason into the EPL.

rishgoon · Aug 10, 2010

Martin O'Neill just resigned as Villa manager... apparently was ticked off regarding the sale of players, and the money not goin back into signing new players
Not a good move by the owners to p-off O'Neill, one of the better managers in Europe in my opinion, and had Villa on the cusp of Champions League the last couple of years

rishgoon · Aug 12, 2010

couple of days to go gents... apart from a couple, is there much interest in the EPL?? I can see with this being a trading card forum, and there not being an abundance of soccer cards out there, that there wouldn't be too much interest compared to AFL, NRL, NBA etc...
anyway, looking forward to taking another 3 points from Anfield

ljandkg · Aug 12, 2010

I'm sure it'll fire up once the season starts. I know Warney's gonna get it in the ear if City knock over United this year after all the gut wrenching heartbreak they caused us last year.

Lost 4-3 in the 6th minute of injury time at OT
Lost Carling Cup semi 4-3 on aggregate after a last minute goal
Lost 1-0 at City thanks to an injury time Scholes header!!

Like getting kicked in the balls from a 20 yard runup!!

I reckon we would have made the Champions league, likely won the Carling Cup (we stuffed Villa during the regular season and think we coulda won the final) - not that I'm BITTER or anything!!!!

Heafy83 · Aug 12, 2010

You are all dreaming Liverpool will clean up this year. Looking at our squad the other day we have lost a few decent players but also picked up some real talent and depth. We will have Mascherano for first half of the season i think. Reckon he will stick around until this takeover is sorted and sees what kind of money is splashed about.

Just remember fellas........

YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE!!!!

Heafy 83 your dellusional, Liverpool won't clean up! :|

I dunno, they'll be a great chance for the Europa League I would of thought...

I certainly think they will have a better season this season than that of last.
