Quick google says Man U - Everton in 1985 Chelsea/City was on ITV a couple of years ago

Yet when Shearer called him on it it was Shearer who got the abuse. Morons.

Probably 3d choice CB and 2nd choice RB atm. Think they'll buy a new 3d choice CB mind. Mertesacker's had no pre-season but they're up against Palace next weekend, so they could really do with all the height they can find.

It was good of City to buy a goalkeeper who cannot suffer from dandruff

Chico has left Swansea and joined some Qatari side

Robins leaves Huddersfield. Farcical really but Pardew reckons they are a good side

Imagine if your last name was Mings

Just think, Ruiz was our fake bid of choice a few years ago, he could have played at Blyth last night if he'd chosen better

Love how they've got about 10 players still on the books that seemingly just can't be arsed to play. Where are Ruiz, Stekelenburg, Mitroglou, Kacaniklic, Amorebieta etc? Stekelenburg is having a medical at Monaco. Fuck knows about the rest

Saw their team contained Harewood, Tommy Miller & Stuart Parnaby. Goodnight.

Called "Ken Darlow" on the Sky Sports News rolling ticker

Last season Aguero had no pre-season before we went there, and look how that turned out

It's him or Mame Diouf, assuming Crouch is to be shown the door. Odemwingie/Arnautovic either side (Assaidi doesn't seem keen on going back), then some horrific combination of 3 of Sidwell, Adam, N'Zonzi & Ireland. Also Whelan, Palacios and Walters hanging around for some horrific options.

I can't pick an 11 from Stoke, they've got loads of players who are very similar in ability.

Incidentally their home/away fixtures dovetail perfectly with Swansea's

Banking on Cameron or Begovic moving or just got a hard on for Stoke?

Toure took lots of pens last year when Aguero was knackered. If Aguero is back he won't score as many

Pitch needs time to recover after summer concerts

Really fancy Liverpool to twat Southampton on opening weekend but there's only Sterling I'd consider, however Arsenal, Chelsea, Man Utd and Man City all have better starting fixtures over the first few games. Tough calls this year

Celtic on TV?

Why is he often only referred to as "the playmaker" by journalists?

Aarons and Obertan about to come on

How predictable! He did it several times in the morning warm up tbh Morning warm up? You shagging Gouffran?

Wouldn't bother with Mirallas, Everton's start is tricky and he's been hit and miss in terms of points

Nearly forgot this was happening - couldn't even see a thread. Think we're possibly playing too many games this pre-season..
