Newcastle are chronically overrated. 8-0 to City.

Two more goals from van Persie. The guy is playing insanely well at this point. if/when he goes down hurt, Arsenal are screwed.

I Lol'd.

He is playing out of this world right now. 1st goal was simple enough, but his second was very impressive.

Nice article on Citeh, by the way. As I pointed out a month or so ago, their club incomes at this point don't cover the player wages. That's pretty fucking ridiculous. Winning the Prem and Champion's League pays well, but its not like that gives you $200m per season and you obviously can't count on it either. I just don't see where Citeh are going to get the money to make the thing sustainable and meet the coming financial rules.

Managed to find a stream of the Bayern-Dortmund match today. Impressive 1-0 win for the defending champs. I missed most of the first half, but the match looked far more even than the stats bear out.

We're actually pretty decent.

Watched the Madrid-Valencia match from yesterday. Scrappy and the ref lost control in the 2nd half. The Valencia players were diving all over the place, but Robert Soldado scored a pair of nice ones for Los Che.

City stay shittin on the EPL. Huge game on Tuesday against Napoli in the Champs league. Must win to advance basically.

And they can't pay their players. Next offseason will be awesome to watch.

Just watched Barcelona go down 1-0 to Getafe. Thrilling last few minutes as Barca pushed endlessly for the goal. Real Madrid now have a 6 point lead and look like they might run away with La Liga.

Rough day. Really rough.

Im was fucking furious. I just didnt know which to be furious at. The Ass ref, or United for missing about 7 legit chances to win that game.

At first I was like....FUCK!!!!
Then I was like.....FUCK!!!
And, now im lke......meh fuck!

I actually felt bad for United after that shit call. How can the fucking FA do nothing over obvious situations like that? Do they not get that the integrity of the game ends up looking suspect when the ref is pushed to making a terrible and obviously-wrong call.

Kinda disappointed in the Arsenal result. Fulham worked hard and Arsenal never looked that threatening until they went down by a goal.

RIP Gary Speed

The former Leeds, Everton, Newcastle and Bolton midfielder was found hanged at his home in Chester this morning.

Police say there are no suspicious circumstances surrounding the 42 year-old's death.

The Football Association of Wales confirmed the news, saying that Speed's family had authorised the release of the information.

A spokesman for Cheshire Police said: "At 7.08am on Sunday 27 November 2011, Cheshire police was informed of a sudden death at an address in Huntington, Chester.

"Officers went to the scene where a 42-year-old man was found dead. The next of kin have been informed and have confirmed the identity of the man as Gary Speed.

"There are no suspicious circumstances surrounding the death the family have requested that they are left in peace to grieve at this difficult time. A family tribute will be released at a later date but not today."
