The majority of great CMs were "cunts". Ballack, Vieira, Zidane, Kean.... I could keep going forever, but you get my point. You need to have a little nasty side to instill fear into your opponents and let them know the middle is their playground.

Nice Johnson, just like his name sake yesterday, similar sort of goal. An Arrow to the top corner

1-0 Scouse

1-1 Penalty, volley hits Allen with his arms in the air, and Noble dispatches the penalty

2-1 West Ham, Cross comes in and Gerrard has headed it into the top corner of his own net.

HT

2-2 Joe Cole gets played in the channel by Sterling and a beautiful finish across the keeper.

3-2 Scouse! Shevly scores it! Cross comes in and he throws himself at the near post, it flicks up off his boot and lobs the keeper

Gomez is good in scoring vs small teams. Everyone knows that.
He's scored one goal vs the top6 teams last season in the Bundesliga.

He also scored 3 goals against SSC Napoli, 2 gainst ManCity and 1(+1 assist) against Real Madrid, all small teams of course.

AVB has been very bad in his substitution so far. You were up 1-0 with 10 minutes to go against one of the main rival on the table, and you decided to experiment with fucking Faque??? Leave that bullshit for Europa League or something ...

ManCity in CL is a small team lol. But yes you are right. He did win the CL for Bayern after all... Wait, wasnt the final the game where he missed like 3 top chances? Ah well its just one game, he did win the league for Bayern, right? Or not... Or scored the most goals in the Bundesliga!

Even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while. Gomez is one of the most overrated strikers in the world. I still find it hilarious that Gomez wasn't the top scorer of the league last season (with more games played than Huntelaar). I mean he has Robbery, Kroos, Mueller, Schweinsteiger gifting him goals while Huntelaar has Holtby, Farfan...?

He scores a lot yes, but with the midfielders he plays with, anyone would even me.

Of all the substitutions to criticize, you pick that one? By far the worst was Huddlestone for Lennon. Huddlestone is STILL out of shape and gives the ball away seemingly with every touch. Carroll or even Livermore would have been much better.

Messi is the only person who scored more goals in a Champions League season than the 12 Mario Gomez scored last year. And he did score quite a lot of goals for Stuttgart without the help of Bayern's midfield.

Gomez certainly is no Ronaldo or Messi, but he is a top quality striker. And he is constantly improving. Whatever he will achieve, however, there will always be lots of people too blind to see his abilities. It was the same with Klose.

ability to be in the right place is a hard ability to gauge, and it certainly doesn't look impressive. but it's also one of the key attributes of lots of prolific goalscorers, gomez being one of them.

For me personally he doesn't bring enough to be considered a top quality striker. Don't get me wrong he is a great striker, but the reason people are "blind" to his abilities is because the only thing he does with the ball is put it in the back of the net. He can't bully defenses like Drogba and Falcao nor can he score out of nothing like Ibra and Van Persie.

He is a top quality finisher I just think he is too much of a traditional target man and doesn't really fit that well in the modern game. He will rarely move and is basically a poacher, which is fine but it really restricts the movement of other players. Same with guys like Dzeko. When they're on form and the defenders aren't for whatever reason shutting down their predictable style they will score goals and do it incredibly effectively. But if they aren't, they don't spread the field or create space for others, they stifle a lot of creativity because they are so useless or reluctant to do anything outside of the box, they just become a huge burden on the offense.

City should play behind closed doors for a game or two after that response to the winner. Absolute scum, who ever that was.


theyre gonna identify the guy who threw the coin and they're gonna ban him for life. and that's the perfect way to handle it. no way can manchester city as a club be held accountable for the actions of 50k people and no way can they search everyone for _coins_. this isn't a breach of security or whatever, it's one angry supporter showing his retarded side.


Prosection for assault. And they should punish the club, thats the only thing that deters fans. Punishing the individual wont mean jack shit. Maybe the club thing wont either, but itll make atleast some of them think twice.

I think a life ban from manchester city matches is absolutely sufficient deterrent for any supporter of manchester city. I don't understand how any supporter would care more about a fine for the team or 2 matches without attendance or whatever, than about themselves not being allowed to ever set foot in the stadium again.

prosecution for assault in addition though, sure.

Im not talking monetary fines. Im talking point deductions. It will set fans so straight so fucking fast (atleast the majority of them). No one wants to be "that guy" who cost their club points. No one.

It still might not work that well. But punishing that dude will do jack to fix the issue if it is indeed fixable.


Seems like Messi breezed past the record. And Jordi Alba just tried to play the worst offside in history.
