Proper Football season 2014-2015 thread

City play Barcelona tonight. CL football is always during the week (except maybe the final? I forget).

[Psychotic]

I hope City win 6-5, 5 Suarez goals and 6 Messi Own Goals.

One down, 10 to go...

EDIT: NINE MORE LET'S MAKE IT HAPPEN

Also smurf me Messi is delicious to watch. I feel dirty for saying so but I can't help but be in awe of his skill.

Congrats Manus.

The United result has been many games coming. With 'Pool away to go this season I'd put them as favourites for fourth based on current form. We still also have Chelsea away. We just can't afford to drop points against teams we're supposed to beat.

It's such a shame & frustrating that City can't get it together in the CL. It's an advert for the PL, and they're making it look like we have a weak league. Never exactly been fans of Barca FC either.

Don't forget we have Europa commitments though!

Glad to see we have Owen Coyle with us at EoFF.

Gheh, I'm watching Fox sports international so I can see the Premier league and Europa league, and because of some British stuff they don't air the english commentary. So you have a dutch commentary to it all, and I don't know if the guy knows it's not that well watched (pay to watch the premier league for dutch people), but the commentators get snarky.

I mean, the stuff they say sometimes, I just grin and think this is much better than the official one. I mean, the sheer number of times they made fun of Balotelli in Liverpool - Besiktas is just awesome.

Racist.

If shooting 20 meters above the goal is a racial thing... :P I think you're just mad Liverpool lost.

Watching the Man. Un. - Sunderland game and they gave a red card to the wrong guy.

Liverpool v Man City is the best fixture in the Premier League. None of this Mourinho bus parking bollocks, just two teams endlessly attacking the smurf out of each other. 2-1 up against the champions, 10 minutes left, go defensive? Do we bollocks. Went even more attacking if possible. Absolutely visceral and exhilarating. And it blows my mind because we'd been so turgid and insipid against Besiktas and now just two days on we smurfing explode all over City.

What a privilege to watch the wizard that is Philippe Coutinho. Absolutely delicious technique, flicks, vision and ball control. And that goal. I thought Henderson's was special, but that. smurf me. Oomph.

[Aerith's Knight]

The two goals of Liverpool were a pleasure to watch. It's what I think is lacking these days, decent shooting from a distance, not all this fancy pancy stuff until they get to within 2m of the goalkeeper.

On performances. Top 4 should be

Chelsea
Man City
Liverpool
Arsenal

if we snide a champions league slot it will be thoroughly undeserved.
