and who do we bring on when we're struggling to break down reading?

o'shea and fletcher.
Haha that is gold unfortunately.

I missed the game as it was the late one and I had an early start.. didn't sleep so might as well have stayed up.. but after checking my phone for the score/news this morn at the bus stop I'm glad I didn't. Oh well, only 2 points off top! Can we sign Chopra?

Tevez to debut on Wednesday, just confirmed by Fergie. :thumbsu:
Great news for everyone.

I feel bad for Rooney (even though I dislike the dude) and wouldn't wish an injury upon anyone.

However, I think it's best in his month or so out of the game he improves his attitude. His attitude/respect towards referees is still disgraceful. Not sure how he constantly escapes punishment when he's quite obviously abusing + swearing at them.

Irrelevant though. He's a spanking footballer. (even if wasteful in front of goals, ie; last night)

Tevez will be interesting. With the service Manchester United often provide, it will be quite a show in seeing just how prolific he is/can be.

Why single out Rooney?

The whole league is a disgrace, can't believe they don't clamp down on it.

Absolute rubbish.

He is literally 10x worse than any other player. Doesn't just argue he goes ADD Crazy, swears at the referee and just acts lke a big idiot.

The fact you're even comparing him to other players in this regard shows you're hiding from the reality of the situation.

Not gonna wake up at 4:45, way too early for me.

Will definitely tape it and watch it when I get up.

I also can't wait to see Tevez :)

I'll be switching between the Chelsea, Manchester United and Manchester City (home) games.

I never thought I'd want to watch a Manchester City home game again after last season. :p

Hate to admit it, but City looked a top unit on the weekend, definitely played the most attractive football, Petrov looks a real quality purchase.

Get Bresciano in among them and they'll only get better, anyone know anything about his transfer, seems to have stalled?

palermo called it off ages ago. citeh wanted to pay in instalments but palermo weren't having it. I'm sure this decision had nothing whatever to do with thaksin's financial credibility.

subsequently "Eggy" has tried to "reel him in", with predictable consequences.
