This weekend's other games | PL Gameweek 12

[Beefymcfc]

Think I'll watch Dortmund v Bayern instead. Not part of 'PL Gameweek 12' though so not sure if I can mention it here

Quite a strange statement, why can't you mention it?

[mr_nool]

I would prefer BvB - Bayern ahead of West Ham - Chelsea as well, but I can't be arsed watching a stream. So Hammers vs. the Rentb oys it is.

Cant see a way back for Hammers from here. Will be lucky to keep it too just a two goal defeat

Yeah, they've been dire. Chelsea have been playing way below par, but are still 2-0 up.

[Beefymcfc]

West Ham look garbage. It's OK saying they don't need a striker but the reality is somewhat different.

[mr_nool]

I've switched to the ruggers. Very entertaining first half!

[phips]

Gotze scores vs Dortmund to finally break the deadlock. you couldnt have scripted it this way.

[nottsblue]

Lovely goal too. One player i'd love at City is Reus. Always seems to have a good game when i see Dortmund. Or Germany

[phips]

too bad Dortmund are so decimated by injury

[london blue 2]

Just watched balotelli and co struggling to breakdown the ten men of Genoa, Milan are really struggling ATM. They looked pretty average. Notable things were:
- mario took 2 free kick of which none failed to get past the wall
- mario does far less work for Milan than he did for city
- he won a nice pen then failed miserably to convert it
- de Jong was his neat and tidy self although not really tested
- subhino was sub, he came on and added nothing

Whoever said mario could be up there with tranny and messi must have been on drugs, he can stay in Milan and jog around looking average. I would happily see dejong back in blue though.

I believe the only one saying that was Mario himself.

I think what people were saying is that he has the raw talent to be that good, but he has nowhere near the desire or work ethic of the other two to ever reach that level.

But he doesn't.

Even Mourinho saw his potential (and his lack of application). Are you saying he and Bob don't know what they are doing?

I doubt either of them think he is as good as Messi either.

That's because he isn't, in reality or potentially. I was agreeing with the point about people saying he could be good if he applied himself. (which we've seen for ourselves)

[Bridge'srightfoot]

I think ted made the point that players like Beckham and Keane had far less natural talent than Balotelli has, but they both had a million times the work ethic and desire.

I don't think anyone seriously felt Balotelli could be as good as Messi or Ronaldo but he certainly has the potential and ability to be far better than he is.

Poyet needs to shut up. Larssen should have been red carded against us. Karma I'd call it.

[bigblue]

shrek cunt should be off 100%

[Florida Blue]

8th minute Rooney gets a yellow for a textbook red. I love how nothing changes.
