TWAT

ROFLMFAO

Chuck Norris doesn't need a bat.

he just roundhouse kicks the ball out of the park.

I thought a guy named Twat was actually starting

He was going to be my new favorite player.

by B Money on Nov 29, 2011 2:52 PM EST via mobile reply actions  

Might mean something in regards to Chamakh but if I remember correctly Benayoun is the Israeli Captain and by far the most experienced one on the field. Easy pick as captain in this kind of game.

by Roa on Nov 29, 2011 2:58 PM EST up reply actions  

that's kind of funny

considering he’s a loan signing. Also awesome, considering the stuff I’ve been reading about the effect he’s been having on the younger players.

The ticker on ESPN is already off and running with some gems:
Squillaci plays, which of course must be a concern for Arsenal fans, because, let’s be honest, he is a bit rubbish.
Both sides march out. City are sporting their warm-up jackets, which, I feel, look a bit daft.

So, apparently I can now be followed.. but no stalking. @alsonamedphil

So looking at the lineups not much chance of winning this. Best case scenario

Frimpong trucks the **** and ends his career while Kolo scores a hat trick off corners and Chamakh/Alex/Park score to give us a surprise tie.

We've been doing pretty well.

4 shots on target vs just 1 for them. (0 off target and they have two though) Park’s chance was the best of the game by far.

Really happy with the play by Frimpong and Alex in particular. Both are really trying to take their chance. Expect more from Park and Chamakh coming up though.

This EPL thing is as much a group experiment as anything. Only reason I’m an Arsenal fan is they were not spoken for in our group and I wanted to watch a competitive team. We still have not had a Man City fan and frankly Balotelli is too awesome not to share with someone. After some research he was hooked.

Nah.

He’s had very few shots on target to deal with.

May Cardiff use the powers of the ex-Gary Speed to defeat all enemies can claim the CC.

Bigger fish to fry… namely Tottenham, Newcastle, Chelsea and Liverpool. Need to get rid of three of them.

So, apparently I can now be followed.. but no stalking. @alsonamedphil

I'm sort of relived this whole Carling Cup nonsense is out of the way

That finale last year killed the entire rest of the season. I hate it when fans bite into the psychological warfare from other teams claiming a “trophy drought.” The only two trophies that matter are the PL and CL and everyone knows it. The team needs to focus on a top 4 finish and solid CL campaign this year.

I would actually really love to win the FA Cup.

I don’t know why, I just really like that competition.

The FA Cup is my favorite competition, always has been

Winning the league is great, but I have always loved the FA Cup.

I'd prefer the Champions League or the Premier League

but I firmly believe that the FA Cup is still a major trophy, even though Manchester City won one
