Utd have got a fairly easy Xmas fixture list, their next 5 games are all winnable, they could go on a run.

 

thats been said about them several times this season

 

Villa are like someone playing on Fifa when they don't know the controls

[Stickman]

Typical Villa performance = shite

[kalasoma]

I had Villa to get relegated last season at 33/1 and they barely escaped. I think they are probably going to run it close again this season, but the odds aren't as appealing.

Haha that's class! And true..

[Johnny Cougar]

Lambert has had a great deal of leeway off both board and fans so far, but they are a shambles today. He needs to look out or he could well be the next for the sack. It's between him and Toad of Toad Hall for the next man overboard.

[J-V]

and another shit cunt scores against Villa

[Baltar]

The mancs still have an aura that some spineless shit teams fear. Villa being one of them. Fucking shameful performance in front of their own fans. Wellbeck and Cleverly ffs.

Lambert should be fired after this.

[jamespp]

Aston Villa are doing in wrong, you're not supposed to roll over and die before kick off, I think they're still in Ferguson mode

[fowler9]

Man United winning 3-0 through goals through Cleverley and Welbeck, better step that match fixing investigation up a gear

[Tony Moanero]

Paul Lamblert.

[Brigant Moloch]

what, first wellbeck and now cleverly? Shite's literally on fire!

 

what are the odds on Moses scoring a winner today?

Chamakh and Torres yesterday too

 

wonder if Salif Diao is free this afternoon?

[Brigant Moloch]

Chamakh and Torres yesterday too

 

haha, I forgot about it. Return of the living shite this weekend

[Baltar]

If only we still had Borini, would have been nailed on to score today. Spurs still have Adebayor, right? Shit.

[J-V]

Talking of returning living shite on comes Darren Fletcher.

just seen Reina is on the bench for Napoli tonight, has he got a knock or is he still being pretend Pepe instead of the good one?

[RazorBack]

Reina is playing good for Napoli this season, some major saves especially in the CL. Their defence however is not the best, which is kind of a strange for Rafas team.. Anyway, watched Atletico-Valencia yesterday and Costa is a beast of a player. Wasn't sure of him when we were interested (don't know how genuine it was) but he has proved he is class. 17 league goals already, as much as CR.. Strong, good technique and he forces his way to the goal like a bull. Everything we though Andy Caroll would be (did we really?)..

[Trumo]

I knew Villa's record against the Mancs was shite, but I didn't realise the last time they beat them at Villa Park was on the opening day of the 1995/96 season - the game after which Alan Hansen on MOTD questioned Whiskeynose's policy of getting rid of a few experienced pros and replacing them with youngsters from the youth team by claiming "you don't win anything with kids". Do bookies still take bets on this fixture?

[jamespp]

They're not much better against us, I think apart from the game when Downing scored a few years ago I think the last time we lost there was about 1997

[J-V]

Easy draw for City.  Barcelona.

[Stickman]

Bad week for the Arse just got worse.

[Batigol]

Bad week for the Arse just got worse.

They're out but they'll only have the league to concentrate on from there on out.  Blessing in disguise maybe,

 

Fancy City to knock Barcelona out.  

[Russ Atmosphere]

I think Arsenal fans are conditioned into expecting the wheels to come off at a certain point in their season and this will either make or as seems more likely break them. They desperately need a consistently brilliant striker too and January isn't likely to turn one of those up.

[spider-neil]

Whether City progress is entirely down to whether Messi recovers from injury.

[RazorBack]

Some nice fixtures ahead of us, personally without Liverpool in the CL the teams I like most out of these are BVB and Atletico, both play nice footie, have good players and have good fans so what is not to like?
