Paul Lambert has got to be in serious trouble now!..i dont think the fans or the board will put up with this for much longer..

...also, Chelsea have now scored four goals in a game eleven times in all competitions this season!!:crazy:
 
URZZZ! What a comeback from Reading! 3 goals in the last 8 mins.

Oh and I vote Walters as Man of the Match :lol:
 
He only equals Michael Proctor's infamy of scoring two own goals in a game.

Proctor, a striker for Sunderland, scored two own goals against Charlton in a 3-1 defeat in 2003. Sunderland's Stephen Wright scored another own goal in that game. Surely, that, is some sort of record.

Coincidentally, both Proctor and Wright ended their careers at my club, Wrexham. Proctor between 2007-2009, and Wright 2011-present.

Further coincidence? Jon Walters played for Wrexham earlier in his career. DUN DUN DUNNNNNN!
 
NO. I don't believe it.





That would have been an AWESOME goal.




EDIT: Scumbag fans. Reina doesn't deserve to be whistled.

EDIT2: GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL.

EDIT3: I think Vidic was offside when the ball bounced from Evra's head.

Goal from Sturridge, after a nice block from De Gea.
 
C'mon my 3-1 prediction.
 
Yeah, a wins a win. Now c'mon Arsenal!!! :D
 
Wow!

That escalated quickly....

Penalty for City, and red card for Koscielny! :dunce:
It's only been 10 mins!



AND DZEKO MISSED! Great save by Szczesny, with some help from the goalpost! :)
 
Extraordinary start to the Arsenal-City game! ive never seen a penalty quite like that one!!:lol:

Question to everyone:

If you could create a team with past and present Premiership players, then who would be in your squad.

_____________

Format:

*4-4-2 Only
*No subs bench

*You can convert one player to another position, but only if he had the chance to work in such a role.

And how far back in the Premiership? Any players of all times?
 
The first ever Premier League season was the 1992 to 1993 one.
 
Regarding Arsenal's red card. Why the hell did he try and rugby tackle City's player?! I was baffled.
 
My Premiership dream team:

GK: Peter Schmeichel
LB: Ashley Cole
CB: John Terry
CB: Tony Adams
RB: Lee Dixon

LM: Ryan Giggs
CM: Matthew Le Tissier
CM: Steven Gerrard
RM: Ray Parlour

ST: Alan Shearer
ST: Thierry Henry
 
My Premiership dreamteam:

RB: Gary Neville
CB: Rio Ferdinand
CB: Tony Adams
LB: Gabriel Heinze

Or I could just put the current United team. :sly:

Irwin could play both flanks. A damn fine full-back, he was.

Was going to have Paul Gascoine (did I spell that right?) as one CM but I think he went to Lazio before the first year if the Premier League...?
 
Gascoigne still played in the Premiership, with Middlesborough (1995-1998) and Everton (1998-2002), but was certainly not at his peak at those times.

Bale ahead of Giggs? Please tell me you're a whippersnapper who doesn't remember Giggs in his prime, even with Adams and Cantona in your team...

I am only 22, so... but I have seen a lot of old games; I just didn't think :P

Replace Gerrard with Gazza (in his prime obviously, since its fantasy and he did play in the Premiership, things like dates don't matter right?) and Bale with Giggs then 👍
 
Being Welsh, I am most certainly happy that we've gone from one world class left winger to another inside one generation, even though Ryan Giggs was a half-arsed international.
