Wow, I have to say even I yelled out and felt great for City just because of the story. Didnt really care who won but that end would make anyone leave their chairs..

Im amused and somewhat upset how with the exception of Kompany whos been the best cb in the league all the difference really did turn out to be the money and right till the end to. O well, more debt inc.

Man now I have the chelsea barcelona semi final and the man city qpr game on my sky plus. Such epic viewing. The only way to make the CL final more exciting would be some sort of comeback like 1999 haha but perhaps with only 10 men or maybe coming back from 4-0 down lol.

If there would be a comeback at the upcoming CL final I wish Bayern is the one who come back. Dat 1999 final is just too painful for them.

Hahaha amazing quote from some random commenter on the bbc website:

Frank Warren has signed Barton to fight Dereck Chisora - Frank said 'It's good to sign a fighter who can't suffer brain damage"

Oh my god, I was actually hoping really badly that United would win this season, but even I had to celebrate when City scored the 3rd goal. Simply amazing, it was a moment that rivals Man U's win over Bayern in 99.

Omfg, I'm so fucking excited! Slightly out of topic but Olympiakos just won in the CL basketball final!!!! Holy crap!
We were a powerhouse some years before but not now.
For those of you that don't know about Euro bball this is something bigger than Chelseas football final appearance, it's a real miracle! Just for the record when the 4th period begun we were losing by 19 points!!!
My dick has shrunk to the point where it looks like I have 3 balls.

Joey Barton should just be banned from football. THe thing that always confuses me, why do managers ever sign him, the guy is either kicking people or is in court for some idiotic thing.

But really...get rid of Tevez, why is he even playing there? You put on Dzeko and he produced a goal and is such a presence that he makes space for others.


i mean honestly, my vitriolic hatred for tevez aside, qpr jamming the middle basically forced city to try to fling crosses in to players that are 4'11" combined, not going to work

City need to break teams down to be effective, ie they need nasri tevez silva all passing there way through teams, like barcelona and arsenal try to do, thats is what they play like. If they come up against a sturdy defense of 10 men behind the ball denying them space its easy for them. It narrows the game down, if they go out wide and try to cross like you just said they have 4ft 11" guys to aim at and it does not work so there is no point. Throwing dzeko on was the obvious choice maybe imo i would of took off nasri (think he was still on) and kept Tevez on he was doing well. Or maybe even take off lescott and put a striker on de jong after all cud sit in easily as QPR were not coming out of there half.
I think next season is going be a tougher test in the prem, with assuming Chelsea sort out there squad, will be in the hunt, and maybe if spurs add to there squad no reason they cant be knocking on the door again. And well maybe if newcastle themselves add to there squad they might be looking good (however with them playing thursday > sunday from Europa i see them low mid table and most next season) and then Everton i mean they played really well towards the end of last season (lol calling it last season already xD) so if they can start well im sure they can beat some good teams again.
Im just hoping Chelsea can push themselves back up to the top where they belong!

As a Spurs fan...grumble grumble Marton Fulop grumble grumble...although really Spurs should have comfortably finished in third and not required a favor on the final day.
Zero fighting.

Downing


Was about to say the same thing.

He really is, except he managed to actually score goals and he cost less. I like how Liverpool finishing below Everton and getting shutout by Swansea totally got drowned out.. now that the dust has settled..

To be fair, a little over two months ago Man City also lost 1-0 at Liberty Stadium...

But yeah, that image is very truthful lol
