. Nice little fixture this weekend.

Man U v Sunderland (Saturday). A real chance of another upset since Sunderland would not normally be considered a real threat  to the almost unbeatable Reds

Then on sunday we have Chelsea v Aston Villa. A close one, but a goal will see us through.

Your thoughts pls.
cheers

ahem.... my thoughts don't really matter, however the ones in the paper say it all...


Chelsea often demonstrated their class but as usual they struggled at Villa Park despite some tenacious play from the likes of Didier Drogba, John Terry, Alex and Michael Essien.

CHELSEA 0---ASTON VILLA 2...read em and weep Tex.

err...what were you saying??....oh yes................

   

Who won their match today?
CHELSEA.

CHELSEA  CHELSEA  CHELSEA

Man U play tmw against a poor Tottenham Hopspur team, so shouldnt have any problems getting a draw

Update--- Would you believe it, I was s`oooo close. Only a last min goal saved Man U from the bottom of the table. Lucky sods.

  Unacustomed as I am to hear that the mighty BLUES had a slight mishap on sunday. The NWM has a very valid point that indeed Arsenal need to be considered in the race, Doing real well this season. Had to scroll down quite a bit to find Man U.lol
cheers

I was wondering how Liverpool got a goal difference that high... then I watch the weekend highlights... 6-0 derby... looks like they should have stayed in the championship...

Mourinho predicts open season
 Mon 03 Sep 2007

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho is predicting the Barclays Premier League title race will be more open this season after seeing Aston Villa end his side's 18-match unbeaten run.

It was their first league defeat since losing to Liverpool at Anfield in January.

But Mourinho feels the money spent this summer by Villa and other sides outside of the top four will mean more surprise results could happen in the next nine months.

The Chelsea boss said: "There has been a big input by teams outside of the top four so it will become more normal for the big teams to lose matches and points.

"The other teams have spent lots of money and brought players in to bolster their teams. Villa are one example but you can find a lot of other examples

"It will be more difficult to play against these teams because they are better. The league is open but it is the first weekend of September and we are only five matches into the season."

cheers

Can work the other way though... spending lots of money = starting players not used to playing in England and the team.

I agree with yer there Banana

[texasboy]

  Its probably the same for all the teams when they buy imports. They usually fit in after a few games and maybe an invite to "winkers" parties.lol
cheers

[gr1ngo]

all the "imports" in the English game will have a detrimental effect in years to come. the national team, will struggle when there will be a lack of home grown talent.

The England team played well yesterday, for once, when they beat Israel 3-0. Let's hope they play as well Wednesday when they meet Russia

  If they hadn`t have beat Israel you would have had a lot to answer for. It`s a shame they had`nt  played N. Ireland again and got their ass whipped  for the 2nd time
