The Greatest Show on Earth (Premier league) 12/13

Timbob

Let's get it on!

Biggus

How many PL threads do we need?
We've got Tony Tony's fucky fucky we no sucky thread.

Klaus

That one is in Arsenal talk though. I'd imagine this one is for general Premier League talk.

Mirth

Don't worry about it, Gus. Just think of it as one more thread where you can stick the boot into Wenger!

Timbob

So...Fellaini, he was good weren't he?

Rex

Owned Carrick and Vidic all night. Great to watch. 🙂

They usually coalesce into one though, there is really only one show in the PL -will we get our prize.

Still cant get over Di Matteo is the Chelsea manager.

He has got to be the luckiest manager in the league. I could have managed Chelsea and they woud have won the CL last season. Mourinho's old boys run the club.

Let's wait and see. If he was indeed lucky, I would expect him to eventually get found out at the end of this season.

I can never take this line of view.

How come Mourinho himself never won them the CL then? How come all those managers since Mourinho never won it?

Stars aligned for Di Matteo - exactly the right time, right circumstances.

Terry, Drogba, Lampard, Cole all without CL medals and nearing the end, all suffering some kind of blow to their egos under AVB, motivated beyond belief with a massive point to prove, all good enough to know their strengths and disciplined enough to play exactly to them.

You could probably have managed Chelsea to CL victory for those few games last season Tony

I can't see the image but if i think what it is that was the difference between Avram Grant winning the CL and being sacked. Mourinho was already gone.

That gif is almost hypnotic, the was the racist slips and falls in unison with Van Der Saar as the ball crashes onto the post.

Anyone watching this? Hilarious 2nd goal from Swansea (Michu), James Collins with one of the worst back passes you'll ever see. Fat Sam's face after the goal was wonderful. 😆

Mirth

Atmosphere's a bit flat, no?

Rohit

1st goal was a blunder too - by the keeper.

FantasticMrFox

Swansea completely dominating West Ham.

Good to see a club doing so well on their second season in the premiership.

gutted the team and yet still it stands
