Just sitting down to watch Villa v Liverpool and I'm wondering who will be singing on here later...Mark probably will either way as it's his birthday lol. I'll sit on the fence and say a draw.
Two defeats for Palace but two close games and with a few more signings I think we'll get a few points on the board, probably not enough to stay up but I have to remain optimistic. |

The wheels have fallen off already, lol.
Well done Mark! At least Villa have a few easy games coming up! |

It was a rare treat I got to watch some of the game - second half.
Apparently we were better in the first half, bloodily well hope so, wasn't too impressed with what I saw. Reminded me of an England game, protecting a lead, sitting back, everyone sweating for the last 30mins
I thought villa looked quite assured but seem to lack a final punch. |

A fair assessment I think. Liverpool were very good in the opening 30 minutes while Villa were sluggish and looked like a team that had already played two tough away games. But I think Villa turned it around after that and looked like the most likely to score but just couldn’t break down a stubborn Liverpool defence. Liverpool did nothing in the second half and they will not be able to play this way against the big boys. They need to learn to kill teams off, a problem they’ve had for a few years. Stoke nearly claimed a point last week after Liverpool dominated and to be honest, I think Villa deserved a share of the points at the end of this match but I would say that I guess. Look forward to see how this Liverpool side go against Man Utd this weekend. |

V good result. Anyone know how we played?
I would obviously take a 1:0 but so far we have had to hang on each time - better that than nothing of course. |

Like all our matches so far Bill, a great first half and a defensive 2nd half.
We're the only team with a 100% record and nobody was expecting that, so I'll take 1-0 all year. Utd won many a league on 1-0
And 3 more signings today, the squad looks stronger, also skrtyl might have just redeemed himself

It's good to see Liverpool top of the table. A decent display today, although I did think Utd were quite poor.
Also good to see Palace get their first win and played really well too. |

Congrats! I moaned when we gave him the job and I will moan until he hopefully proves me wrong... but David Moyes was a bargain basement manager option for a world class club. Frustrated to say the least! |

Thanks Andrew Sorry I had to share it When I see you guys in for Fellini and Arsenal in for Ozil, it's kinda sad....Ozil would have a been a great player for you. Fellini just a big bully in the middle. Mark |

I heard Utd wanted Sami Khedira but Madrid didn't want to let him go as they had already allowed Ozil to leave for Arsenal. |

It is looking that way!! Transfer policy was beyond bad. Scattergun and made United look anything but one of the biggest clubs in the world. I can't imagine Fergie would've been impressed by either the amateurish work of either Woodward or Moyes. The most ridiculous thing about Moyes chasing of Fabregas was how he was all high and mighty saying, 'Oh, I don't talk about players from other clubs', and then in the next press conference waxes lyrical about Fabregas and how he'll "have some news for you in the next day or two". It was pathetic, really. Fair enough, he's got big shoes to fill, but Guardiola or Mourinho would've never made the silly mistakes he's made so far. And that is the calibre of manager Manchester United should be employing. |
