As for the Rooney thing hes a great player but god I wish he was the player we had at 2004, I don't understan what happened to his pace which was on par with Owen and his dribbling skills which were goo as what Messi haas now

hes more a complete player now but I would of prefered a more complete striker.

I would only revise one thing about my prediction and that is to swap Wigan and Sunderland. Cattermole will vastly improve the Black Cats and Wigan will miss him. Those two teams are still down as my 'shocks' for this season though.

Robbo Robson on BBC has predicted Spurs to finish 4th. Laugh? I cried.

Erm, not even close. Messi has the best close control of any player I've seen. He's untouchable.

StolenThunder · August 16 2009, 06:33 PM

Well, decent opening weekend I think. Mixed results and performances for the top 4, goals throughout the league.

Pleased about the Arsenal result, anyway.

Starkers · August 20 2009, 01:32 PM

Well so much for hoping Burnley would beat Derby's 11 point low

Oh well there's always Hull

Only saw a bit of MOTD last night but if Glen Johnson plays like that consistently he was a snip!

Roger Wilco · August 20 2009, 02:40 PM

3 1/2 hours until kick-off, finally getting away from work - Aston Villa here I come! I'm expecting an epic evening, regardless of what happens, there's nothing better in football than European Cup.

HappyDayRiot · August 20 2009, 08:03 PM

I hear Vienna took the lead in 40 seconds - excellent stuff! Edit - haha you won! Well done!

Roger Wilco · August 20 2009, 09:12 PM

Ahahaha, muahaha. Aston Villa? Who the fuck is Aston Villa when confronted with the mighty SK Rapid?

Too bad my team failed to put the finishing moves to Villa, so the return leg still gets exciting, but who cares? Even if we lose 5:0 this will be remembered for ages. Premier League my ass.

<3 Rapid.

Tomalak · August 22 2009, 11:00 AM

Villa are a very ordinary team now they've lost Laursen and Barry. Young and Milner are decent players, but the rest are nowhere near top four material. They will do well to scrape a Europa League spot, not that it will matter because MON will treat it with contempt, as usual.

Roger Wilco · August 22 2009, 01:35 PM

Yeah, I think that was our biggest plus; Rapid wanted to win, desperately, Aston Villa was more like "meh, whatever". I don't understand that attitude - why even struggle to qualify for the EL when you then don't give a shit, is the Champions League really that much more interesting? Anyway, their loss is our win.

Jax · August 22 2009, 03:58 PM

With RIO out of the upcoming ENG games I was trying to think who could take his place but I can only think of 3 people who are already going to be in the ENG squad...Upson, Terry and Lescott but Lescott could lose his place with recent events.

Seriously who is there for cover especially if Lescott form continues to go down the drain ?

* Brown - Injured/Not Match Fit
* G.Neville - not a CB really
* Richards - better at RB
* Woodgate - Injured
* King - Can't really train and only play 1 of 2 matches
* A.Ferdinand - No experience for Senior ENG
* Turner - I don't rate him as some others
* Campbell - Can he really still play at this level ?
* Davies - No experience and Villa started poorly

in 2006 we had the likes of Terry, Ferdinand, Upson, King, Woodgate, Carragher, Campbell (all fit and good age)

HappyDayRiot · August 22 2009, 05:02 PM

Who springs to mind... Gary Cahill? Zat Knight? Michael Mancienne?... Titus Bramble?

Given the lofty position England are in Capello had just as well pick anyone and give them a chance. But he'll pick Lescott anyway.

Tomalak · August 24 2009, 01:56 AM

Cahill is the obvious candidate. Very underrated!

Starkers · August 24 2009, 10:24 PM

Good win for Villa, but not a great start to the season so far for Liverpool.
