Becoming pretty clear that Rodgers was carried by the 3rd best player in the world

Hope Suarez does something truly dispicable

No goal is too showboaty

It's one of the worst away trips as well, the one time I went there I paid 55 quid to sit down, no alcohol served to away fans whatsoever, smug as fuck fans, etc. Can't stand them. Chelsea fans were the type to wave money at northern fans and chant about being on the dole during the 80s. Either that or they were members of the NF. Thats the kind of twats that support the club historically - add in the plethora of new age glory hunters and its not a great mix.

Not much between Chelsea and Man City historically before the money came in. Plus Chelsea's money era stretches back into the 90s when they spent more than they could afford under Bates bringing in big names. Chelsea just got lucky that Abramovich swooped in when the shit was hitting the fan, unlike for e.g. at Leeds. The virtue of being in an affluent area home to billionaires rather than a working class northern town. I favour City over Chelsea because I see some parallels between them and Newcastle. Can't identify with Chelsea. Spend 5 minutes walking around Kensington and its a different world.

They went bust and started again in the 3rd division.

Dunne has always, always, been useless. He's the Irish Titus Bramble. How he's stayed in and around the top flight for as long as he has is beyond me. Didn't he win player of the year for City about 3 years in a row? Also gave one of the best backs to the wall defensive performance of all time in Euro 2012 qualifying against Russia :lol:

Fair play to Vergini if he did hit him

Oh come on, you're a Newcastle fan, I know for a fact that you've seen at least a dozen games this bad over the past five years. Not where the other team matched us in our shiteness.

One of the worst top flight games I've ever seen in terms of quality this was like. Really bad. Fitting that Obertan won it in a way.

France is going to be a beer and piss stained wasteland if all the home nations qualify

Iceland have a smaller population than Luxembourg and Malta and football isn't even their national sport.

It's definitely true imo

Has this thing about Pardew telling another manager a player had AIDS so he could sign him instead been posted yet

That's the best thing about big games, when the match feeds off the energy from the crowd and vice versa.

They won't ever get a better chance, its a terrible group.

They've got a player who plays in Israel's top flight and 2 or 3 ringers drafted in who play League 1 and Conference so they should probably be better than San Marino, but they look comically disorganised.

Adriano was fucking brilliant mind when he could be arsed

You weren't saying that under Steve Staunton when you were scrapping it out with San Marino. Ireland are practically minnows as well, it'll be a waste of everybodys time when you play Germany.

I just don't get it. Surely the Germany game should have seen a sea change in Brazilian football. Not bringing back Dunga and his boring football, Kaka and Robinho back in the squad and literally no new youngsters.

Do Brazil not have some kid they could play instead of drafting in random Brazilian league jobbers approaching their 30s
