Wouldn't be surprised if their Melbourne purhcase was to help them fudge the books. Melbourne can buy some 12 year old off Citeh for £70m, and all the Negredo/Jovetic money etc will have come out of transfer fees received.

I'm not sure of the exact terms in the current laws but 'adopting an aggressive stance' is a booking and not a red card. The reason he sent off Remy is because he thought he struck the opponent with his head, and I don't think he did that at all. I've no idea why Johnson was given the straight red but if they conclude he has simulated the head-butt, then that's two bookable offences in the incident. I only saw the game online so the picture quality wasn't great but did Remy actually make a forward motion with his head, or was it all just part of squaring up? Even if the FA can't identify any evidence of Remy moving his head foward after they'd square up, they'll stand behind their ref (at least publicly) and say the red was for the two-handed push, or professional misconduct or some bollocks. Shocked if it gets turned over.

If there are near enough full stadiums every week, it's implied approval of Ashley's running and ambition of the club, for those ticket-paying fans. 1) Loving and following your team; and 2) bankrolling Ashley ...are very much mutually exclusive for me, but not everyone will feel the same, which I understand if disagree with - but that probably oversimplifies the equation too tbf, as there are many other factors involved (eg - routine, family enjoy it, seeing mates etc).

What a fucking douche.

Hard lines, leffe. Least you have a bright future

Captain Aguero injured on 4 points. Had some horrendous luck in this since December. Down to 31 Gonna sack it off soon

Sack Pardew Sack Kinnear Restore SJP to its former glory Repair relations with fans Hire BrettNUFC as manager

Man City are unreal.

Fucking hell Aguero. What a player. Good save from Lloris, but the movement and execution to get on that header - fuck me. Got it all.

This, pleasure to watch in his time here and I wish him the best for the future. I actually suspect he'll really thrive in the PSG set-up if he gets enough time on the pitch. Dude looks ridiculously good in his press conference. No homo.

http://i.imgur.com/QgTMSr8.gif I want to know what happened to this guy. I hope he has a talk show of his own now.

haven't been convinced by him overall this season tbh, just doesn't seem terribly interested at times. Give me his half interested > 90% of our squad. I thought he was great yesterday like, very unlucky with hitting the woodwork three times. Stupid as fuck of course, but let's not re-write history and say that he was poor before the sending off. He wasn't great IMO. With the service and quality of balls in the box (not to mention the dishevelled Norwich backline) a great performance would have meant he got on the end of one or two of the good balls put in and won us the game. He's got some good attributes, but his finishing is nothing to write home about. With the money we're willing to spend not sure if we can get much better in today's market with wealthy club hoarding better strikers on their bench.

Reminds me of this post:

Solano

All happened so slowly, and I thought he was doing right by waiting - to make them realise what complete pussies they were being - and then he comes up with a shit decision.

Says the fan of the CB who closes his eyes and puts his head down when crosses come in. Anita was the best player on the park by a distance tonight. Not saying much, but there it is. The same CB you declared to be the best we've ever had? Stand by it, too. I don't know what to say. The oracle has won again. Just asking but which player is the best CB we've ever had ?

Krul Debuchy Williamson MYM Santon HBA Sissoko Tiote Anita Gouff Armstrong* * - on the basis that De Jong won't be match fit, and not Shola. Also, it'd be fun. Otherwise I'd put Sammy on the left and play La Gouff through the middle

Get up man Anita ffs

that Shola pass

Shite decision making from Remy

Hope he doesn't let the miss get him down or get discouraged if his first dribble doesn't go to plan. He's been class all in all.

Someone tell Vurnon he's allowed in their box from time to time
