Mighty I You but really Barton a nice guy?

I you too Viva.

And I think he's genuinely trying to do something good with his life, after his shady past.

He's a good person?

Yes he's delightful.

Reasons

A 2008 video there Hero, yes he was a dick then, but now, I reckon he's trying to get somewhere in life.

He's made improvements no punches thrown

AC ALSOAM vs. AFC Swamp Donkeys

With the chemistry at the back for AC ALSOAM they are able to see out the threat of AFC. With 5 at the back AFC were pegged back majority of the game, only scoring their one go through Benzema on the break! Cavani and Benzema were unable to link up due to their difference in styles.
Again hard to seperate in the first game of the season
Close game both sides defence was hard to break and only managed to gain a point each.
Swamp Donkeys for me made a couple of mistakes today. Generally, they played such a defensive side which meant that they didn't have enough men going forward to cause enough of a threat. They also got Carlos Puyol to watch for oncoming midfielders, he doesn't have the pace to do that. He'd be better off marshalling the defense and winning headers. Alsoam put Juan at left back which for me is wrong, he's a strong centre back and should be deployed there where can win the ball, but with nobody really threatening, it didn't matter.




The London Silly Nannies vs. Cunning Canaries

A very tight game, with Cunning Canaries playing very defensive football. They get their two goals through the pace on the break with Chamberlain and Bale on the wings. London SN find it difficult to break through their defence but get the goals late on in the game.
hard to seperate the two teams in the first game of the season, with both strengthening
good game CC took an early lead but Ozils strike managed to pull them level. nearing the end ozil played a great ball towards Sanchez who managed to get the winner
Wes Hoolahan for me would have had a lot of space in front of the back four, and Demba Ba would win the aerial battles for Canaries. They look good going forward, Oxlade and Bale's pace would cause issues but going forward Sodhat has a lot of quality and I don't think there's enough steel in midfield for Canaries, Arteta should be played alongside Parker, dropping Huth or one of the centre backs should have got forward when in possession for me, a good win for the London side but the Canaries are improving.


FC United vs. Real Ale Sociedad


Cahill scores from a corner whipped in by Reus who doubles his teams lead at the end of the first half. FC United come back into the game straight after the break with their Brazilian flair. Neymar and Hulk find it hard to link up but eventually make their mark on the game with Neymar showing why he is highly sought after followed up by a double from new signing Hulk with a stinger from outside the box and a 1 on 1 with the keeper after a slip from Sakho.
Cherries tactics are good and if he can keep up this standard he will soon turn draws into wins
Close game both sides where very attacking but ended up settling with a draw.
I would play Reus and Nene a bit wider if I was the Real Ale manager and have them cut inside, as the way they played allowed Maicon and Marcelo to break forward. Hulk and Neymar are world class players and caused serious headaches for the defense, and Hernanes is used well in the attacking role where he gets deep. All in all, a draw is a fair result but if any team were to be the winners then I'd give it to Real Ale.


Viva City vs. Borussia Munchingballsack

Munching, take control of the game early on with Scholes controlling the tempo of the game, they get an early lead, Gaitan links up well, from wide, with Llorente who nods it past De Sanctis. Hamsik equalises with a storming goal from just outside the box, Pirlo doubles Viva score with a Freekick an hour into the game.
I feel that Borussia just have the advantage in this one, vivas tactics were good but borrusia are able to counteract
Viva city began well but Borussia managed to pick the game back up and after a great ball was played to there striker who put the goal away.
Borussia just snatch the game.
For me, Viva's side would dominate the midfield. Their players would work harder for the side. Scholes is aging and Di Miria wouldn't track back enough to help. Hamsik, Javi Garcia and Pirlo are a very good unit and would win them the game by dominating the possession. Borussia have the players to break forward but have a couple of weaknesses, Friedel isn't the best, and neither is Heitinga. A decent display by Borussia but a fully deserved the win for City today.

"Arteta should be played alongside Parker, dropping Huth or one of the centre backs should have got forward when in possession for me, a good win for the London side but the Canaries are improving."

I debated whether to do this or not! God #decisions

Cheers Hero.

Thank you last person on my reasons. Prilosec has been fantastic one of the best in Italy. Barzagli out for 20 days I think I cursed him after my praising yesterday.

I am unfortunately missing a couple of feedback posts as over the past couple of days a few people have beem PMing like crazy people which has resulted in some of the results falling off the bottom of the list, apologies for that.

Barzagli has been fantastic for Juve this season but I also think you were harsh on Chiellini, even though he's played this season predominately in the LB role he's actually turned out to be fantastic there, most serie A blogs/pundits etc still have Chiellini in their team.

It was a slight dig because I didn't get him. He has been good playing LB.

Can't wait to see Juventus in CL next season.

Aren't Juventus caught up in this match fixing thingy again?

the manager but that was at siena

Oh right! Italy might pull out of the Euros I read

I agree with the comment on playing Juan at LB, I had David Alaba injured so had a choice between Juan and Badstuber filling in at LB, Juan meant I could keep the all German/Bayern CB's.

Hero, I need you to sell me Hummels so I can play;

Boateng - Howedes - Hummels - Badstuber

Funny how two people think I talk sense

Bull sold Schweinsteiger!

And in other news, hell just froze over...

Marky how could he not sell him! Russ offered a mega deal

BBC Sport ‏@BBCSport
Manchester United agree terms to sign Borussia Dortmund playmaker Shinji Kagawa, subject to a medical and work permit.

Uh-oh. The dreaded Work Permit...

Olly I know it was a mega deal, but its Schweinsteiger and its Bull, so I'm a bit surprised.

It did take us about 5 hours to convince him on the Box

---------- Stekelenburg----------
Pereira---Godin---Carvalho--Pereira
---------Motta----Moutinho------------
Blaszczykowsk---Eriksen-----Turan
------------Hernandez---------

thoughts now?

so ive Bought Motta , M.Pereira , Lamps , Blasz.

Needs Schweinsteiger in there

seriously thoughts?

Still need someone instead of Carvalho at the back, he was a legend but his days are numbered now.

---------- Stekelenburg----------
Pereira---Godin---Lugano--Pereira
---------Motta----Moutinho------------
Blaszczykowsk---Eriksen-----Turan
------------Hernandez---------

how about now?

Urguiun Back four

Much better for understanding although Lugano himself didn't excel himself last year.

Also think Hernandez needs someone to work with upfront and that Eriksen really needs to have a good Euros for you.

ok so new striker.

im hoping he has a fantastic Euros!

Bull are u interested in Demba Ba?

not really.
Ba has Slipped after the rise of Cisse.

Yep Ba scored 16 Premier League goals last season, he has really fallen!

i dont rate him that high tbh.

So you would rather have Hernandez over Ba?

yes.

i just dont want Ba.

thats all im saying.

Wow I guess we see different games week in week out!

Anyway Ronaldinho has gone to.....

ATHLETICO MINERO!!

(Poor Marky)

poor marky indeed.

It's something I've noticed in these games is that the Premier League players have much higher peaks and troughs than players from other leagues due to managers familiarity with them. A player grabs a headline for good or bad reasons on a saturday and it does effect their rating on the Wednesday in here, a player in Europe or further afield could get a hatrick or have a mare in RL but it won't be taken into account. The only exception to the rule is the champions league and the forthcoming euros.
In other leagues Mario Gomez was slammed as useless after the champions league because of what they saw in 90 minutes, never mind the fact that only Ronaldo and Messi have scored more goals than him in the past 2 seasons.

Guess that analysis puts me at a serious advantage/disadvantage every week Hero with my whole Premier League/English league squad

It just puts you at greater degrees of fluctuation.

Oh well! Between my four strikers this past season they score 41 Premier League goals, 16 for Ba, 15 for Holt, 9 for Morison and 1 for WILBRAHAM!!!
I'm happy with that.

Scholes is ageing, what's Pirlo then, superhuman?!

Pirlo in fairness has only just turned 33, Scholes will be 38 by the end of the year.

Must say I am happy with my lawyers offers this week! I will have some cash

Also don't forget media questions I have a TP in mind (I think)

New media questions are up!

As United fans who would you prefer. Kagawa or Lewandowski? Looking from the outside I think you need a Lewandowski more than a Kagawa

Still would answer the above with Hazard
