Thought I'd start a football blog, we might keep this going until 2010.....England doing well....did not see the match or even the goals....I'd like Michael owen back in the squad though....and I think Peter Crouch would make a very good substitute...remember against Argentina in Geneva a few years ago....with Michael Owen and some very good movements on and off the ball...they caused havoc.....did see Scotland's missed chance....that could be very costly losing those 2 points !.

Well the Gunners have reacted well to last weekend's defeat....incredibly difficult league ours.....and it's not surprising that so many foreign players want to play here now : at the moment it's no1 in the world.....let's hope the national side can emulate the league and become the best as well !.

propergame fo football today in manc land.....brilliant stuff...darren fletcher man of the match.....go on my son

Unlucky City, thought they'd taken a point from that game until the ref remembered his duties. All this nonsense about 1 min for the goal celebration and 30 seconds for a substitution - surely if you do the maths then the question becomes why so little time in virtually every other matck played.

And a welcome back to the real tottenham - made to look like the muppets they are without us breaking sweat.

Isn't it nice to see Michael Owen coming back into form ?...(sorry Man-City fans !..)....anyway talking about something else : isn't there a huge contrast between Liverpool's style of play and the Everton long ball and huff and puff, the thing with the latter is that they will surprise a few teams like Manu in the FA cup semis last year, so they might be a cup team again this year but I do prefer the passing style of the super reds.

Super reds ?

Have you ever seen Gerard win the league ?

MO back in form ?

He came on for less than 10 mins and was lucky to be in the right place at the right time. Any team worth its salt would not have defended the way city did in injury time - quite simply he and man u were lucky - that should have been a draw.

Winning the league takes some doing...I now think that Chelsea are going to win it....I would love MO to be back in the national squad and be like a super sub....who knows ? next summer 10mns remaining and...on comes... ?

I would love MO to be back in the national squad

RFif that happens I will start supporting Scotlandsince his move to Real Madrid in 2004 he has never been able to keep a first team place anywhereReal kept him for only one season where reputation stands for nixiehe was given the wink prior at Liverpool that his regular team days were numberedeven a poor Newcastle team dropped himor did he have a bruised finger?Shearer who loves him on screen dropped him at a critical stage last season.hmmmmm

Alex Ferguson took him on after all others rejected.to inflate his colossus managerial egoall in my own opinion of course

And the "ballon d'or" of france football : european footballer of the year award. I can't understand why on earth didn't he come on for Newcastle....baffling..

Cos hes no fuc*ing good

Alex Ferguson got Owen for nothingand that was overpriced!!his wage is 20,000 a week as a basic salary.Newcastle paid him 110,000 a week .. Owen signed a two-year deal and is owened by Unitednot exactly high risk for Fergusonthey might even get a return.Cash for clunkers

I don't think Campbell can play for a league club until Jan. over hear, so wonder if he can play abroad?.. assuming anyone wants him that is after walking out on County.

JS no Gerrard hasn't won the league but he has won the champions league not like TERRY, LAMPARD, COLE, etc.

Gerrard (if he wasnt a glorified footballer) would be enjoying the services of Her Majesty The Queen for his disgraceful off-field demeanours.......mind you the thug cant even speak English but i suppose he didnt go to school like most of the scum that purport to be the youth of UK

marni.........as opposed to the youth of iraq? lol...jog on....the taxi queues slow tonight?

Pure luck as every football fan knows. Had it not been for Platini perhaps JT, Frank et al could have joined the scouse one, with a CL medal in the cabinet.

Chances are had that been the case, the medals would still be there, unlike gerards where 11 scouse players have been burgled over the last year - what wonderful folk round there (as the media often remind us)

Whoops

Wigan

Liverpool not playing well....lots of people including myself thought that they would be the team to beat this year.....they might improve as the season progresses...

Alex Ferguson got Owen for nothingand that was overpriced!!his wage is 20,000 a week as a basic salary
After watching him the other night for 15 minutesI would say his medical bill for the two years Ferguson got him forcould top the sale of Ronaldo+what a wasted space
