There was this mildly amusing piece on fußball365, only slightly tarnished by the Bent signing...

I'd be surprised. they have the exact same squad as last season. I'm expecting slow decline rather than rapid.

Their worst ever season, since football began in 1992, saw them finish 3rd (3 times)

2001/02 3rd, Champions League Semi Final
2003/04 3rd, FA Cup Winners (Arsenal Invincibles 1st, Ranieri spent £150m to finish 2nd)
2004/05 3rd (this was the Mourinho machine season)

You don't think Moyes can beat that? 

How many points a season was Ferguson worth?

Ok, I'll rephrase my statement.

Man Utd could go either way, only debaser will be surprised if they have their worst ever season.

I bet you most Man Utd fans would take 3rd if you offered it to them right now.

This lot are going to be hilarious.

football is nearly back

I'm so excited, I woke up this morning with an erection.

Liverpool: Mignolet, Johnson, Enrique, Toure, Agger, Lucas, Henderson, Gerrard, Coutinho, Aspas, Sturridge

Stoke: Begovic, Pieters, Huth, Shawcross, Cameron, Whelan, N'Zonzi, Palacios, Etherington, Walters, Crouch

Dwarves against giants

I'm going to the pub and Im going to watch Mark Hughes take a thrashing ....maybe

Trying to watch the match with a hyper-active dachshund.

With an open net Huth hits the bar

Sturridge finds the net! But he's offside

Coutinho is magical

Why on earth did Inter sell him.

Bleh, missed the goal, taking the dog outside. What's with that red artificial turf strip? Looks silly.

for the love of god, which BT numpty thought it was good idea to hire Michael Owen as commentator

These shite links...anyway, what on earth was Stoke thinking buying Pieters. I can't believe they paid money for him, remember when you really wanted him Kimbo? Anyway, does Villa really have to play Arsenal and Chelsea away in 4 days time? Who makes these fixtures.

This is fucking insane

you kinda wonder what was the point of Stoke changing manager but none of the players

Yeah it's a bastard. due to Chelsea playing the Super Cup & not having any other midweeks they could fit a game for months. we then got Liverpool home on the Saturday then 3 weeks without a match.

Can smell a scrappy Stoke equaliser  

Boty teams, same shit, different season. Liverpool would have won the World Cup by now if every time they hit the woodwork they scored.

Superman in nets today

Villa:

Guzan
Lowton-Vlaar-Baker-Luna
Westwood-ElAhmadi-Delph
Weimann-Benteke-Agbonlahor

Subs: Steer, Okore, Helenius, Bacuna, Tonev, Bowery, Clark

pretty much as expected - only questions were Baker/Okore & Okore missed a chunk of pre-season, and whether it'd be El Ahmadi or Bacuna/Tonev (if we were going more attacking).

Arsenal have Cazorla on the bench, he injured?

How we miss El Ahmadi these days, cant believe I would ever say that. Just two more years Deb, and he will be good!

Ahhhh...drama...we meet again.

God I fucking hate football

God I fucking love football

God I love football.

fucksake

apparently been good pre-season but he tended to go missing against better teams so let's see today.

good save by Minger though not the best penalty. would've been a mugging tbf.

I will watch you on a dodgy link Deb. Instead of a big Bundesliga game in HD I couldnt care about

How good is Mignolet, shows again how dodgy Reina was over the last years.
