The Barclays Premier League Thread 2014/2015

[EddieG]

Blind needs to stop shooting from distance.

[Baddar]

Glad someone quoted that, but to be fair, he's tried placing one shot now and scored from it!

[Lineker]

So Fergie has updated his autobiography with a chapter on the Moyes era.

Quotes from

the Guardian

[Baddar]

Is Costa just a doubt for Sunday, or definitely out?

Either way, I don't fancy our defence against 52 year old Drog anyway.

[stokeriño]

Depends whether you think Jose is playing mind games or not.

[Lineker]

The FA have charged Crystal Palace manager Neil Warnock for misconduct following media comments after the Chelsea game.

[MJB]

In other news, water is wet.

[Lineker]

You'll also be surprised to hear that Garry Monk has also been contacted then!

Sunderland have confirmed the signing of former France international Anthony Reveillere. The 34-year-old full-back has signed a deal with the Black Cats until the end of the season and will wear the number 15 shirt. Pending international clearance from the Italian FA, Reveillere could be available to make his Black Cats debut against Arsenal this weekend.

I'm curious, with Manchester United's form, is there any reason why I'm looking at decent odds for a Chelsea win?

Seems to me the bookies down here are overrating our chances versus Chelsea slightly.

[stokeriño]

I dunno, we're the away team...lots of people [united fans] are probably putting on United anyway...

Just looked on bet365 and a Chelsea win is at 7/5. United win is 9/5. Not a massive gulf.

[Colly]

Lineker, do you know Phil McNulty? Is he really as shit as his articles make out, or is he told to waste our license fee on shit that should be on addy clickbait sites?

[Lineker]

He's shit.

[Noah]

I'm tempted at $2.35 to put a little bit on a Chelsea win because it'll probably buy me a nice lunch.

[Thrilla]

Drogba will eat the United defence for dinner.

[Moses Julep]

Is Costa not playing for sure?

[stokeriño]

Nothing official as yet but he's only just got out of the hospital after a stomach illness he contracted when with the Spain squad.

Because, apparently, injuring his groin wasn't enough...

[MJB]

Victor Valdes is training with Manchester United.

Bit strange, IMO, especially as he's been linked with Liverpool.

[EddieG]

Brendan dropped his interest a while back.

[Lineker]

It begins!

[Colly]

I call bullshit, you can't take photos of Mario's invisible camo car.
