Some great games.

Luis, do you think you can win the league this year. If it's between Arsenal and you guys, I hope Liverpool win it.

Many people use Brenton as an excuse for having Moyes have another year, while forgetting, that Brenton actually achieved something with Swansea. And was quite likeable guy, till he showed his house with that narcistic painting of himself.

If Moyes can't get the standard Man Utd win at Villa (esp when we've been awful at home all season), then he really will be in the shit.

HSWHW out for a month

Not a chance.

I think with a bit of luck we could stay in the race for another couple of months but I think top 4 has to be the aim and for me, although that's going to be very tough, it's achievable this season.

There's so many factors that could work in our favour or against though - right now we've lost two of our best players this season - Gerrard and Sturridge for a month or so. With games against Spurs, City and Chelsea coming up that's a massive worry for me.

The January transfer window might have a big effect as well - United need something or they're in trouble. Arsenal might fancy themselves for the title this year and could cement that with one more tasty signing during that window.

Still think it's between City, Chelsea or Arsenal (have to take them seriously now) with Spurs, Liverpool, Everton and United fighting it out for the 4th-7th places.

In January I think I'll be able to tell you where I think we'll finish. The next 5 games are massive.

Van Persie out for a month. When it rains it pours in Manchester. Brilliant!

He's injured when he wants.

Big blow for Moyes that. He's been fine for 2 years, Moyes comes along and he's back playing checkers in the injury room with Jack Wheelchair.

All down to Rooney now - despite hating Moyes he's the only one that looks like he gives a shit. Average players like Nani, Welbeck and Cleverly can't even appear like they're good under him.

Next few weeks will be interesting.

Its his shitty British way of training IE do fuck all with a ball and just work on tackles or something like that.

more likely his shitty Dutch genes given his career history. Generations of inbreeding and excessive cheese consumption.

also enforced wearing of wooden clogs for the first 10 years of life is bound to put un-natural pressures on the knees, ankles & hips.

and all the rapes he likes to do in his spare time probably weigh heavily on his mind, causing him to sleep poorly which is known to lead to a higher rate of occupational injury, heart disease, gastrointestinal disorders, mood disturbances, and cancer.

No, it's Moyes. HSWHW is unhappy with his still of coaching anyway, if Rooney is more fit then ever, you know his training sessions are all about running hard.

It was about time, now watch him miss most of the rest of the season. This was a recurring pattern with him at Arsenal - get injured - return for one match - aggrevate - miss next 10 matches.

Excellent news.

City's home games so far this season:

Newcastle 4-0
Hull 2-0
Man United 4-1
Everton 3-1
Norwich 7-0
Spurs 6-0
Swansea 3-0

Not looking forward to this one.

Hope we win in the most PROGRESSIVE, controversial manner. I love the smell of salty scouse tears.

Spurs will probably win in their usual jammy fashion; you never get decisions at WHL so the best I'm hoping for is a point. We have too many injuries as well - it's like if Own Goals or Penalties got injured for Spurs they'd have no chance.

Arsenal: Szczesny, Sagna, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Monreal, Flamini, Wilshere, Ramsey, Ozil, Walcott, Giroud.

Manchester City: Pantilimon, Zabaleta, Kompany (c), Demichelis, Clichy, Fernandinho, Yaya Toure, Nasri, Silva, Aguero, Negredo.

Walcott running at Clichy   

Good attacking teams; can't call this but would probably just edge towards City being at home.

Aguero running at Kos may be more even than it would appear

Actually Clichy should do well against Walcott (did he do particularly poor in the past?), he's still very quick and it's not like Walcott is high on trickery. I am disappointed to not see a Spanish battle on the other side - Monreal starts, but Navas will watch it from the bench.

City looking more dangerous . Arsenal free kick make it count

Be good to see Wilshere step it up ..... Yes Walcott 11

Cracking game this

Thought our goal deflected off DeMichelis but replay shows he actually didn't touch it. It was as if Pantelimon expected it to be deflected into goal and didn't try to save it.

Negredo 2 - 1   

Nice goal 2-1

S**t, Kos injured and stretchered off. Looks like a knee injury.

Thought the same goalie missed it.
