The Barclays Premier League Thread 2014/2015

Oh man, Dembele just hit the post with an absolute screamer.

[Lineker]

Diego Costa draws Chelsea level just before half time.

[brenchill]

Costa again!

[Berober]

I took the fantasy captaincy off him in case he didn't play and put it on Eriksen. Why do I keep doing this?

[Gorka]

Bugger.

But those fantasy football points...

Pressurising the opposition on the edge of their box when we're the away team?! I love the way we're playing.

We look like we're on the brink of being a good team, but it's just not happening yet. That said, it's only our 4th league game under Poch. A little bit more fluency and it could be very good.

Man City USA signed Lampard and loaned him to Man City UK. Man City USA also have David Villa on their books, but he is currently on loan at Man City Australia.

Expect to see Man City Japan break in on these kinds of agreements in the future as well.

I was going to call you out on those names but then I realised I didn't know the name of our Japanese side, and Man City Japan is probably much better name anyway.

[Lineker]

Another early Spurs goals! Erikson!

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Break! Bundle! Eriksen!

[Berober]

NEVERMIND.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Costa (captain) and Eriksen in my fantasy team so I'm happy.

[Lineker]

Southampton are home and hosed. Jack Cork makes it 3-0.

[King Ellis]

Pardew out!

[Lineker]

2-1 Chelsea - it's that man Costa again!

[ZJ Penn]

With that return he really didn't Costa lot of money whatsoever.

[Colly]

Pardew really would have been gone long ago if he was at any other club in he league. Days are numbered, this tonking was coming.

[Lineker]

Goal at the Brittania at last - Ulloa gives Leicester the lead.

And Costa has his hat-trick. Fastest ever scoring start to the Premier League?

[Gorka]

Well, that's game over.

Yokohama F. Marinos. I fully expect them to follow the Aussie and US franchises and change their name to Yokohama City at some point.

It's a pretty good set-up to be honest. Increases your presence in emerging football markets and those with money to spend. I expect there might be a Man City China at some point too.
