Oh they are definitely punching above their weight. But its not a West Ham thing. They are playing almost as well as we did last year, only they won't need as many points as we did to finish 4th.

No but they still won't get it. Utd, Arsenal, Spurs and probably the RS will all finish above them. There's still a long way to go.
 
That Bertrand challenge* is a sickener, his right shin into the back of the victims right knee. A real stinker that. Shame it'll only be a 3 game ban because it could be a serious knee injury hes put on the other lad there. Idiot!

???? he got the ball. his foot rolled over the ball and that's how the contact happened. it wasn't even a free kick! football is still suppose to be a contact sport, injuries are going to happen, it's part of the game, you just have to accept it. it was a tad high, but he got a large chunk of the ball well before momentum took him into the man.

you really want to see people pull out of tackles left right and centre because they're not going to touch the underside of the ball?

the difference is that mourinho wins a hell of a lot of trophies, including league titles. moyes played that way in terrible games away and relegation fodder some of the time etc. mourinho takes 2 or 4 points off title challengers and beats most of the rest.

agree with LVG and moyes comparisons though, moyes wouldn't have been the failure he is with this current squad - would he have been able to attract those names though? who knows.

The problem I have with it is, I would rather watch an Ancelotti team or Guardiola team(the Bayern one not Barca,tiki taka is boring after a while) win. They won the same trophies while not making me want to slash my wrists watching them.

Fergie's teams won games being good defensively while playing attacking football that you could watch. Wenger's teams pre 2009 did the same but Maureen wants to strangle the life out of a good game. Everyone calls hm the special one because he is Tony Pulis with a bigger budget.

If you could pick any of those 3(Maureen/Ancelotti/Guardiola) bet you wouldn't pick Maureen.

mourinho winds the kopites up no end so i'd take him over the other 3 ha. to be honest, this chelsea team currently, especially when caudrado get's going are really pleasing on the eye, this has been by far his most atractive team. i doubt pulis would have won the CL with porto, regardles of the budget.
 
"What an odd, odd system. Rooney on the right, Fellaini on the left. What a way to play the players you have. I mean, does that fit? Why is he (Rooney) out there? Fergie used to play him there against Barcelona or Bayern, not Cambridge. If I was Rooney playing against Cambridge, I would be asking "what am I doing out here?"

What Claridge said btw.
 
Woah, United going all-out against Cambridge United! That's a CL line-up haha

Edit: We actually did pretty much the same so yeah, can't really complain.
