News:

Mourinho has named his poo poo list:

quote:

"I'm not happy with anyone," Mourinho, who also criticised himself, said.
"I'm not happy with Branislav Ivanovic's form, Gary Cahill, John Terry, Cesar Azpilicueta, Eden Hazard, Cesc Fabregas, Nemanja Matic and Wayne Rooney."

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/34024188

After Brenda spent a whole week praising the 'excellence' of his team, the Premier League officially confirmed his team was in fact poo poo:

quote:

Christian Benteke's winner for Liverpool against Bournemouth on Monday should not have stood, the Premier League has confirmed.

In the incident in question, Benteke turned in a deep cross from Jordan Henderson at the far post after the ball flew past a clearly offside Coutinho, but referee Craig Pawson whistled for a goal. The League's statement used stills from the match to illustrate the rules and underneath it said: "Expected outcome: Offside offence."

In other news, Wayne Rooney is still missing. Please contact if seen.




Biggest match is Arsenal vs Liverpool, always a classic and other big matches to watch out for are ones that involve United, Chelsea and City. Everything else is poo poo.

Leicester beating Spurs will be cool and good. Also I hope Chelsea continue to implode and Mourinho blames an international conspiracy or something.

Our backup keeper is a little bit poo poo judging from the Europa League and pre-season games. He let in 8 goals against Bournemouth last season. I'd be surprised if Bournemouth didn't score at least 2 today

Welp, guess I am going to stay up a bit and watch the first 15 minutes or so. Do love me some proper mentalist action.

Also, completely queued up to do some more guffawing at Rooney's terminal velocity decline.

If there's one defence that can haul Rooney out of his rut its Newcastle's.

I hope Pulis plays the most negative football known to man and pick up a point or three and Jose makes a face.

Also United losing and Liverpool winning would also be nice.
