boring derby, but ecstatic with the result. balotelli impressive. starting to play football. i decided that if when he was subbed, he didnt get upset, id re-evaluate him. mission accomplished. worked hard aswell...
united a shadow of the team they were a month ago. thank god. they were lucky to not be down to 9 men aswell...
worst home defeat in united epl history. love it...
couldnt believe the commentator mentioned the pig 'n' whistle in brisbane?! home of both manchester teams. hardly a claim to fame.

Arsenal 3 Stoke 1. What derby?

Warney · Oct 24, 2011

Ferguson should be shot. Only thing i have to say.

Harsh. New money beats the old money, can't blame Fergie.
I like the sound of it though: FERGIE OUT

sgt_pepper · Oct 24, 2011

RVP to the rescue was it? teach arsene for trying to rest him...

rishgoon · Oct 24, 2011

Yeah saved us. Might stay up now and watch some 'Six and the City'......

ahaha, and if all United fans turned all their '19' champions memorabilia upside down, would make a great gift for some City supporting relatives...
HEY, I'd rather lose 8-2 away then 6-1 at home

siladee · Oct 24, 2011

Hahaha on theme for rwc today haha
There's 3 things I love to watch in the epl, Liverpool beating man united, man united
Losing and Liverpool winning, in that order

Warney · Oct 24, 2011

So, theres only one thing that could improve my night. QPR smashing Chelsea by at least 10 goals. Loving it.

siladee · Oct 24, 2011

1 down 9 to go haha

sgt_pepper · Oct 24, 2011

crazy night. now chlesea down to 9 men. both a little harsh aswell as the penalty...
EDIT: only 4/14 chelsea players not on a YC. unbelievably, QPR lucky to get any points let alone all 3. looked like they were the ones down 2 players at times...

GiRDS- · Oct 24, 2011

WHAT A NIGHT crazy results.

ljandkg · Oct 24, 2011

I'm in dreamland - what a night. All Blacks win the RWC in the most nervewracking game for a kiwi in years.....

And then City put 6 past United in a laugher!!

Balotelli - what a character - so funny!

Anyway - might have to start up a sig like Warney's old one... listing all the scorers..

Balotelli, Balotelli, Aguero, Dzeko, Silva, Dzeko.......most of them were absolute class - so proud of them...

Milner, Silva were outstanding..

ljandkg · Oct 25, 2011

Can't believe the United fans don't wanna write about the derby....biggest one in years

There's tumbleweeds blowing through this thread.......

Where are u????? Warney?? oneal

Balotelli haters??

rishgoon · Oct 25, 2011

Did Na$ri play? I haven't heard his name mentioned... Arsenal have picked up somewhat, from their last 7 games they've 1 6 (get it?) Tough game against Chelsea at the bridge this weekend though.

Saw an interesting stat comparing how well the Mickeys are doing under the mighty lord King Kenny compared to Hodgson:

Hodgson P:31 W:13 D:9 L:9
Dalglish: P:32 W:15 D:8 L:9

shhh...this is the one time we dont have to listen them.

ljandkg · Oct 26, 2011

Nope, nothing - oh well I'll analyse it then......

First goal - Evra's fault - stopped tracking Milner who had an easy cross and Balotelli finished exquisitely before the funniest goal celebration of the year. By the way - the fireworks thing? His mate did that - set his bathroom on fire - no longer a mate apparently. Mario is now advocating kids not playing with fireworks - such a sensible lad!

2nd goal - Young's fault - stopped tracking Milner (sensing a theme here?) - easy ball across to Balotelli for a tap in after a superb backpass by Silva

3rd goal. Down Evra and Young's side again - great ball to Richards from Silva after a brilliant backheel from Balotelli leading to a tap in for Aguero.

United's goal - City's back 4 sat back and let United shoot the whole day - It cost them once via a fantastic finish from Fletcher

4th gaol - Barry wins a header (wtf?) and then United's whole backline watch City sort out who wanted to score.

5th goal - United's wings/fullbacks overattack and leave the centrebacks woefully exposed. Dzeko runs up the middle and offloads for Silva who is unmarked - he nutmegs De Gea for an easy goal...

6th goal - Evra loses the ball (or was it Welbeck) City hoof it to Silva who controls with an exquisite touch before volleying a magnificent pass to Dzeko who outpaced the backline again for a simple finish.

There I think that's the lot of them.

Felt sorry for De Gea - he was at fault for none of them.....

No Nasri didn't get on....
That's interesting about Dalgish - not something that's been bandied about much. he's moaned about the refs a lot....

sgt_pepper · Oct 26, 2011

/\/\ couldve sworn i saw nasri on in the 2nd half?
fergie blames it on inexperienced players pushing for goals when they were already beat. i found the game kinda boring despite all the goals...

Sorry mate, will try to score a few more next time.

JT in racist row... I read today that the Ferdinand brothers are not interestedin talking to him. To me this reads Terry trying to get in touch, apologise and cover his ass so Anton will let it fly...

Hope he doesn't. What a fine captain of England John Terry is...
