5 Nil for the Champions in the end and it could have been a lot more. Rooney was clinical in front of goal today. 
A refereshing change from last year. Wigan is the only away game I can remember that we had the game sewn up so early. Early signs are that the summerâs business was good. Jones impressed again today. Between today and being destroyed at Anfield, Bolton look fairly shit and could struggle this year.
Suspected broken foot for Cleverley. Davies is a fucking animal.
Man City will have to ditch the light blue if they want to win the title. Very uninspiring colour that will not intimidate opponents. Maybe they should wear navy togs.
Cahill looked like a right chump there. Maybe Araenal dodged a bullet.
2 out of 3 ainât bad. Good prediction on Hernandez too
The Manchester -1 double came in again this weekend. Arsenal though ffs.
2 out of 4 mate.
arsenal -1 v swansea - evs
man utd -1 v bolton - evs
lay everton @ evs v aston villa
Might also have a nibble at Liverpool -1 at Stoke (7/2)
Unfortunate advertisement going along the electronic board a couple of minutes ago at Carrow Road. Zanzibar near Tanzania - A True Oceanic Experience. Reminds me of the time when there was a bit of flooding in Galway around a week after the big tsunami in 2005. The part of the city RTĂâs camera panned across to show the water on the news had a restaurant called A Taste of Asia, which formed a rather unfortunate backdrop to the scenes of flooding.
Donât forget the âOsama.comâ advertisement which was plastered around Serie A grounds on September 16th, 2001.
Your losing bets lost you more than your winning ones. Better luck next week mate.
Think you are struggling to count there again .
Bring the abacus with you if you want to engage in these numeric discussions again.
As I said I was considering a nibble of Liverpool -1 but decided not to. That left me 2/3 or 3/4 if you want to consider Hernandez scoring a double as part of the âtipsâ too.
Nah mate. As I said you always struggled with numbers. Donât worry. Youâll get it right some time.
apology accepted.
Missed pretty much all this weekendâs EPL football so tuned into Skyâs MNF coverage there where they do a review.
Yet again Gary Nevilleâs punditry was sheer quality. To Gary!
As good a save as youâll see by Paddy Kenny from Leon Best there.
Joey Barton has been appointed permanent QPR captain.
The second best Irish keeper out there at the moment. His continued oversight as I have outlined on this board before is an utter disgrace.
Joey is a legend.
Entertaining game here betw Blackburn and Arsenal. 3 players after scoring their first goals for their clubs, Gervino with the opener, Yak with Blackburns and Arteta has just opened his account.
3 classy goals. Loved Yakubuâs the way he took it so early. Very neat.
Ramsey has been very impressive for Arsenal, I rate him highly and believe he has huge potential. When Arsenal have all their players fit, they actually look a decent side. Need to unearth a better holding player than Song and another proven alternative in the attack.
I think that Koscielny lad is an absolute liability. Heâs either charging out of the defensive line recklessly or dropping back 5 yards deeper than the rest of the back four to play the opposition onside.
That he is.
