look at chelsea as a perfect example of buying to win.
it's patchy now but wait 2 or 3 seasons and city will be in the mix..
and cantona you realize that the reason manure, chelsea, arse and pool have a "history" or winning the EPL is because of their advantage in money over the smaller clubs (originally due to their location in larger metro areas and thus ability to become bigger faster).
i was starting to wonder if he was ever going to re-gain his form.
it's too bad he chose liverpool. their recent troubles have definitely rubbed off on his form.
personally i think it's too soon to know how the top 4 will finish. i think if chelsea had beaten liverpool things might be different but this weekend saw a few other upsets.
Arsenal are too full of themselves to beat the top teams.
While Arsenal are passing the ball around the box trying to look cool more clinical teams are putting shots on goal and balls into the box.
Chelsea
Man Utd
finish 1st and 2nd.. then it's between Spurs, City and Arsenal.
They should have let him free. An octopus that intelligent would know he is captive and probably ended his life knowing he was now going to be exploited for human gain and had no chance of breathing in the free ocean water again.
Bale has developed in the past 2 seasons a lot. When he first started with Spurs he lacked strength and composure.
I agree with you now that he is best as a left winger but I think he can still do a great job as left-back. He can run up and down the wings as well as anyone right now.
I really only rate Chamahk.. and once he gets injured it's Vela and Bentnerd. I consider van Persie and Walcott more as a support striker or winger in Walcott's case.
Inter showed their age at the end of that game but full credit to Bale for showing how to get it done. I have no doubt that he needs to play as a left winger rather than as left back. Unfortunately I find BAE to be unreliable defensively in the same way as Kaboul.. both lose concentration under pressure.
Spurs need a versatile defender and a striker in January. It wouldn't shock me to see Redknapp sign Rooney in January.. it could happen! I personally would prefer someone...
VdV has been fantastic so far, hopefully he can stay injury free.
spurs already had a pretty solid midfield though and really could have used another striker and/or defender. fortunately vdv can play well behind the striker as can kranjcar.
lose bentley and keane who's had enough chances but since he went to liverpool he's been a shadow of himself
fabianski is definitely good enough to be arsenal's #1.... SINCE ARSENAL ARE CRAP!
They will finish below Spurs this season.
I disagree with most comments. The PK is so skewed towards the kicker to begin with, it should be about the PK taker's technique vs the keeper's reaction and skill. Feinting in a PK is cheap because the keeper can only make movements which is not nearly as much of an advantage
Gary Neville seems more desperate every time he opens his mouth.
Arsenal on the decline.. the only question is how long will Wenger hold out.
Anderson has been a flop and Di Maria from what I've seen looks like he could be amazing.. ..or flop in England.
made no sense.. he must have been high.
the sensible thing would have been for him to go to the middle-east or asia to finish his career.. probably nobody wanted him.
