    Argh..Aguero got one back. 3-1 Liverpool @HT.

    Why do I get the feeling City will tie it up and end with a draw :/

    Winning these kind of games is a quality, maybe even a difference maker at the end of the year. Our guys didn't look too well, but they got the job done.

    Happy for Martinez, great goal. Hope he stays healthy.

    LOl @ Wenger.

    Refused to buy anyone to back Coq up.

    Coq out with injury 10 mins in to the game. Replaces him with old Man Farteta.

    Farteta guilty of playing part in both goals Arsenal gave up.

    Utter disaster.

    But wait! There is more!

    Coq might have a ligament damage and he might be out for the season!

    Well done Wenger, well done!

    Everyone saw this coming except....Wenger himself. :grin:

    I was so giddy after that win. We looked pretty damn good.

    So little individual errors from some players,but overall a lot of other guys really picked up there game and came to play. Alot of that XI deserved praise for their performance. The Brazilian Link up was fun to watch.

    Hendo I can understand, but Sturridge and fit is not something a fan should ever hope for. He's as good as gone, really. He barely plaid the last couple of seasons.

    Also what the hell was Mangala doing when he cleared that ball into the net?

    The best part of this win was to stick it to Sterling. He'll probably win the league with City, unless Leicester keeps on winning, but still he lost vs LFC.

    I still hope LFC can upgrade the back line despite this weekend's win. January can't come soon enough.

    Their next matches will be a true test, doubt they'll stay on top after the next three games.

    It will be a success for former Juve and Chelsea coach Ranieri to stay within Top 5 or even Top 10.

    Their roster does not strike me as one of the best in Premier League before the season (mediocre)

    I am glad I got their players on my Fantasy roster.

    So it's spelled Leicester... pronounced "lester" but my head keep saying "lee-chester" for some reason. Damn you English spelling!

    If they can sustain this into January, I would be very shocked. If they can hang onto the 4th CL spot, that would be absolutely stunning. Either way, the season has to be looked upon as a success already for them. What a great story.

    There's absolutely no logic in the spelling of English towns and villages, been there on a roadtrip and some of the pronounciations dont resemble the writing anyhow.

    How do you pronounce Gloucester? Glu-chester? Was staying near there a couple years ago and never found out what was the right way to say it.

    I'm going to guess since Leicester = lester, then Gloucester = glouester. Lol.

    EDIT: I was close. Its "glohster".
