to be honest with you i haven't gotten a glimpse of most of the league as of yet...so i will hold off judging what i haven't seen yet..everton always get off to a sloppy start then become the team no one wants to play come 2nd half of season...i've seen it too many times..and they hold some voodoo over the sky blues anyway...i don't fear chelsea..we have had their # for the last 3-4 years now....agreed about liverpool..they are good just not top 4 good(but then again who is the 4th team in this league right now with the madness that has been ensuing at spurs and arsenal?)..they are still young at many positions....tevez is en enigma...now he has his family living with him in manchester?..made a total mockery of the club.. but will mancini forgive the madness?...i dropped my brother a line after the game today to give me the 411 on him....could take or leave him right now...don't know where his mind is...will be interesting the next few days...the one i would sell back to italy in a heartbeat is balotelli...every time the camera has gone to him on the sideline during games he looks like a person ready to blow up a building...just pure evil...sick part is everyone on the team loves him...go figure...they say he is a real cut up...doesn't seem like mancini loves him anymore

lol don't get me started on balotelli. he's the city version of joey barton. if you find a way to can his great games without the hassle, then yeah he's a hell of a talent but not worth it in the end. Love Tevez, but not the player he once was and he's a cranky **** when he's riding the bench

agree with everton. start really slow, last year ridiculously slow, then turn it on after christmas. in their current form there isn't a team out there that can't beat them. bet against them while you can! they could play the blackburn match over 100 times and they'd have won once, just happened it was saturday. really look awful

personally hope you keep both balotelli and tevez as i know one of them will disrupt a good thing :)

watched Real Madrid this afternoon and gotta say that RM, City, United, and Barca are simply a class above everyone. I'll go Porto, Chelsea, Bayern, and one of the Milan's for next group of 4 but none have a prayer of being in the finals if they face 1 or 2 of the top 4. Inter can practically mail it in to get to KO stage as 1 seed so I'll toss them in there instead of ACM.

Hard to believe City has come this far since the new owner and it kind of pisses me off :)

btw congrats on your big $$ day. 4-2 City wasn't so far from happening for a dream match

well i know one thing for sure... unless the sheiks run out of oil all of a sudden, my brother will always have a job at city....which means i always have an invite to a match..and i am trying to narrow it down at this very moment as which one to attend...and i am leaning to the napoli match in 2 weeks....as for the exact score...yeah it was close but i never got excited because at any given moment that game could have been 9-5...i usually try to come up with an exact score each week...i figure a buck on the prop won't kill me..think i have hit 3 in the last 2 years....not a very good track record on them!!!

got a feeling wigan are going to try and park the bus this weekend...here's to hoping they don't and try to exert some form of attack...the price on this game is to steep..even the -2 at -130 is too much....was gonna take a poke at the over 3 but then city have to score all 3 as i feel wigan are about to be blanked...in their respective 3 outings thus far they have played each of the promoted championship sides from last year...now they have to head to the etihad stadium to play one of the big boys... at odds with what to do this week...so i am just gonna play a few props...each for a buck($100)...city 3-0(6-1 odds)...first goal scorer tevez(7-2)..my brother tells me he will be starting this weekend...i certainly hope so, now....(insert chuckle)....and first goal scorer adam johnson(9-1)...some of the regulars will be getting the day off is the rumor...and with champions league game on wednesday it's probably for the best...

lay it////don't let me talk u off it....i have a great feeling they cover that...i just am not in the habit of laying juice no matter what the price...that's all...obviously if i am taking a 3-0 scoreline i am confident in them getting that # u are talking about...go for it....seriously....if my brother is right and we see a version of the city 'B' unit...it will still be very potent,,,,trust me at least on that...cheers

if the object of the game were to get the ball passed the keeper w/o scoring city would be world champions today....brilliant at moments but seemingly lazing the day away...wigan are scrapping today....hope city crawl back out of this malaise they are in at the moment...

not a big fan of laying the juice but i must say that having only played one game thus far might be napoli's downfall tomorrow....they are a tidy team w/some potent weapons in cavani and hamsik..but i think the class of city will prevail at the etihad...hate 2 sound like a homer but i am trying to call it like i see it...and city are a few notches above this italian side...get ready to see the silva/nasri midfield in full effect...would love for my idiot brother to get back to me to fill me in on the rest of the squad....not a limit bet on this one...think i am saving that for the fulham game this sunday...but will throw 3 units on this one....(unit for me is a nickel)....so 4125 to make 1500 at -275....taking city win 3-1 at 10-1 odds fer a buck....and cavani to score anytime at 11-4 odds fer a buck as well....also hitting the over 2' for 2dimes at -140...lots on the line...confidence is high

like it gl on the man city m/l with ya lets cash!!!not fan of any 1 premier team, like watching the league, but this team is my fav to watch this year cuz i dont have to have my money behind a brainless center striker in tevez n watch my money go down the drain...they now got a lil quality up there which will allow tevez to make best friends with one of those plush sideline seats

well that was quite the beating taken today....i could go on a long tirade but won't.. i will take this one on the chin...all i can say is that for about 70 of the 90 mins. city dominated....but blew whatever chances came there way...why barry continues to get play over adam johnson blows my mind..the starting midfield was just too much today...yaya would get lost...nasri would get lost...i forgot barry was even in the lineup today most of the time...and one last note on carlos tevez...u look like fat ronaldo attempting a comeback...he is obviously not fit enough to be playing in such a high caliber match...even if it is for 10 mins off the bench...be back with my view on the fulham match sometime soon..but for now it's on to the bottle...this one stung today

thanks....and now adding city-cottagers over 2' -117 limit.....martin jol has decided to fight fire with fire apparently today...his team will press from the get-go and try to take city on with a different tactic than has been established this year at craven cottage..good luck dutch boy...

don't see why you love AJ so much...one footed player and nothing special IMO

crazy stat of day: Fulham and City have played 15 consecutive matches where they both scored in the game. Neither team has been shutout h2h since 2004

aj is much quicker than both barry and milner probably only true winger on whole squad...even though they have world class players..it's tuff to constantly come up the middle and produce
