Official 2012/13 Premier League thread

The reverse angle shows Reid's ass catch the back of Dawkins foot clearly. As I said, it woulda been harsh. But there was definitely contact.

[FLiam]

I'd agree, wasn't a dive.

This is amazing.

[Summers]

*slow clap*

& at least someone else agrees. First angle was unclear, but during the match they showed the reverse close up. Definitely contact.

[FLiam]

From first glance it looks weak, but the other angle, it was a foul. No argument against if you ask me.

Sam Allardyce does continue to be a complete cock too.

[Khain]

I think it was on a limbo, it wasn't a penalty nor it was a dive

[Baddar]

Big win yesterday. Still think QPR away is going to be dodgy, but at least Man City play Chelsea that weekend.

[Baddar]

And that was a beaut of a free kick from N'Zogbia.

[Plubby]

I kind of wish Man United lost.

I had over 17-1 paying on United, Spurs, Chelsea, City and a draw in the Fulham game. At least if United lost I wouldn't have been gutted by the debacle by Man City.

One of the most intriguing stories in this morning's papers is in the Daily Mail, which reveals

Chelsea's scouting report on Wigan

ahead of last Saturday's Premier League meeting at Stamford Bridge.

According to the Mail, the scouting report describes the marking in Wigan's defence as 'awful', while describing their captain Gary Caldwell as 'rash in the tackle'.

Since been taken offline, but lol. Hasn't this happened before?

Liverpool striker Samed Yesil is out for the rest of the season after rupturing his anterior cruciate knee ligament, reports the Liverpool Echo. Yesil, 18, was injured while playing for Germany's Under-21 side last week.

Peter Odemwingie denied papal post by West Brom?

[Jimmy]

didn't they have one on AVB's detailed analysis of Newcastle back in the day for Chelsea?

[Colly]

Think a few of Mourinhos Chelsea ones made the papers.

[King Ellis]

To avoid embarrasment this time, they just asked Demba Ba for his input since he'd just come from Newcastle.

He gave Cabaye a sexy out of ten.

[Hobo]

Liverpool team to face West Brom:

Reina, Johnson, Carragher, Agger, Enrique, Lucas, Gerrard, Henderson, Suarez, Shelvey, Downing.

Subs: Jones, Wisdom, Skrtel, Allen, Borini, Sterling, Coutinho.

[Lineker]

Sturridge is still out, then.

No Odemwingie for WBA, either.

[stokeriño]

Not really sure why leaked match prep papers are news. I wager every Premier League team will do something similar.

[Lineker]

Liverpool: Reina, Johnson, Carragher, Agger, Jose Enrique, Lucas, Gerrard, Henderson, Downing, Shelvey, Suarez.

Subs: Jones, Coutinho, Allen, Borini, Sterling, Skrtel, Wisdom.

West Brom: Foster, Reid, McAuley, Olsson, Ridgewell, Yacob, Mulumbu, Dorrans, Morrison, Brunt, Long.

Subs: Myhill, Rosenberg, Lukaku, Jones, Tamas, Fortune, Thomas.

Referee: Jon Moss (W Yorkshire)

[Thrilla]

Suarez better bloody score, picked him as captain over Michu this week. :/

[Nerf]

Enrique is having an awful game.

[Summers]

Suarez totes makes me laugh.
