Man City 1-0 Chelski

(Tevez, 58)

Manchester City 1 - 0 Chelsea

 

Nice goal by Tévez, really stupid play by Ramires.

full time 1-0

 

Manchester City move their neighbours Manchester United 3 points closer to their 19th domestic title thanks to undercover red, Carlos Tevez. I can see the headlines now!

Cue City fans going crazy and claiming they are a big team, forgetting the fact they did the double over Chesea last year and still did fuck all :lol:

 

They have a chance of getting 4th. Nothing more.

meanwhile if Burnley are going to win next season's Europa League, they're going to have to do it the hard way:

 

Carling Cup fourth round draw:

 

Newcastle v Arsenal

Birmingham v Brentford

Wigan v Swansea

Aston Villa v Burnley

Leicester v West Brom

Man Utd v Wolves

West Ham v Stoke

Ipswich v Northampton

 

Ties to be played on the week commencing 25 October

Arsenal - last few minutes were amazing

Tottenham - :shifty:

Chelsea - :(

WTF happened with Arsenal, losing to the Yo-Yos in what will probably be their only away win of the season before going down after finishing 20th

 

And why did West Ham have to win :P

DAVE! :o

 

 

Portsmouth hit six to crush Foxes

 

Portsmouth 6 - 1 Leicester

 

Liam Lawrence and Dave Kitson scored two goals each as Portsmouth hammered fellow strugglers Leicester.

 

Lawrence's first was a penalty after a Michael Morrison handball, and his second was a deflected free-kick after a foul which saw Miguel Vitor sent off.

 

David Nugent netted from a tight angle for 3-0 and then unselfishly set up Kitson to chip in the fourth.

 

Steve Howard netted a consolation goal before Kitson bagged his second and at the death Michael Brown made it 6-1.

 

Having won at Fratton Park on Tuesday night in the Carling Cup, Leicester's players stayed on the south coast rather than make unnecessary journeys.

 

But from the outset a repeat of that win looked unlikely, and with just 10 minutes gone Portsmouth were in front.

 

From Lawrence's own corner, Morrison stuck out an arm to very obviously prevent the ball getting to Kitson, and Lawrence stuck the resulting penalty to the left of goalkeeper Conrad Logan.

 

Leicester responded brightly, with Lloyd Dyer's pace on the left a major threat.

 

Having already provided a good chance for Andy King, who shot wide, Dyer then produced a delightful piece of control to set up King to sweep the ball into the net, only to be denied by an offside flag.

 

But any hopes Leicester had of getting back into the game went up in smoke when Vitor saw red for rugby-tackling Nugent on the edge of the box, despite there being two other defenders close at hand.

 

Hayden Mullins laid the free-kick off to Nugent, and his shot took a huge deflection off the arm of Bruno Berner and into the roof of the net.

 

With the hour mark approaching, Portsmouth's grip on the game went from tight to vice-like.

 

First, Logan made a superb double save from Kitson and Nugent, before the ex-Preston striker turned the ball in from a tight angle.

 

And straight from the kick-off, Nugent pressurised the Leicester defence, won possession and showed great vision to lay the ball off to Kitson, who chipped in Portsmouth's fourth goal.

 

Howard took the gloss off Portsmouth's evening when he poached a goal for Leicester by poking home in a crowded penalty area, but Portsmouth's four goal advantage was soon restored.

 

Kitson bagged his second from close range after Leicester failed to clear a corner properly.

 

That goal looked to have sealed the win which lifted Portsmouth out of the bottom three, but there was more to come.

 

Right on 90 minutes, midfielder Brown showed neat footwork and persistence to turn the ball home from the tightest of angles to round off a resounding win for the home side.

Finally a win!

You put Preston bottom, albeit for a few hours :D

But they are a big team!

 

They might soon have to buy out Old Trafford to turn it into their trophy store, as they have so many :laugh3:

Glad City beat Chelski, not because I like City, but simply because it keeps everything tight at the top of the league.

Also delighted to see Spuds lose again. Hilarious!:lol:

What about Mainz dominating the Bundesliga? Undefeated and beating Bayern today.

Mainz 05 is absolutely incredible this season and they have some talented young players in their squad like Lewis Holtby (who decided to play for Germany instead of England whenever Löw or Capello nominate him). So does Borussia Dortmund and 1899 Hoffenheim while Schalke 04 who spent most of the money this season for players like Raúl (Real Madrid) and Huntelaar (AC Milan) is 17th haha! I enjoy this season so far although my lovely Werder Bremen isn't that successful either! :)

yeah my Dad was really pissed yesterday:wacky:

but I can't imagine that it will stay like this during the whole season....

didn't Bayern start the last season similar to this one? I barely remember...

 

anyways...I sympathize with Mainz, because Mainz is the capital of Rhineland-Platonia, where I come from....:awesome:

It won't last. It never does.:dozey:
