have not wavered once...even after the recent disasters...tevez appearance is imminent...waiting for an email from my brother to let me know if he's starting or a substitute....would think he starts...though i would find it comical if say city were down 1-0 and 'the wop' tells tevez to go warm up before he is to come in,,,,,as for thinking this could be high scoring....well that's always a possibility w/these 2 squads..but they have only allowed 6 goals at the etihad all season in the epl....

well, as I'll be a Chelsea fan for 2 hours I won't be betting on match but objectively I'd say best bet is City 1H -1/4 @+100

City haven't allowed a 1H goal at home in EPL all season and have led at HT in 9 of 14 games. Chelsea have only led in 3 away games at HT all year (out of 14 played) so I'd say a -1/4 bet is pretty safe with worst result losing half your stake

but subjectively I hope the Blues kick their ass @):mad:

oh, forgot to ask what you thought of the rumor of city and real madrid swapping strikers...higuain for dzeko? i guess higuain and aguero are pretty tight

first i am hearing of that one....still waiting on my brother to get back to me...he must be on another bender..will surely ask though....i do know that city are balls deep in the race to swoop up eden hazard an that countryman kompany has had several convos about the 'new'($$$)culture around city....makes me wonder what the fuck all the signings are for if they are there for a season and gone after all the hoopla that surrounds their incoming fame....dzeko hasn't been given the proper opportunity to shine.....he's a premier league striker...i guess just not w/the right squad anymore if this rumor comes to fruition

mancici said he imagines tevez has 25-30 mins in him today ... so to me that means he will come off the bench second half. Tevez to score last could be an option just for kicks esp if you guys are up and chelsea have to attack. Chelski did rest some players on the weekend but I still think the game vs Tottenham is the one they want. They will fight hard as always but even with the near even odds and no movement i'll take them. Of course a Citeh win helps me so maybe just hope...we can always cover a live in play draw if it is looking that way in the 2nd half.

4-5-1 for Chelsea (or at least 5 midfielders on the line-up sheet).....they look to park the bus and get a point. Glad I didn't play the over.

some side bets i played as well..before we kickoff...balotelli first goal scorer n city win 2-0 @28-1 odds fer a hundy...city 2-0 @8-1 odds fer a hundy...halftime score 2-0/fulltime score 2-0 @35-1 odds fer a hundy....city usually wait til 2nd half to pour on...something tells me this attacking lineup strikes early this evening and holds the clean sheet thru-out......

love all the fighting heading off at half....nasri telling balo to shut the fuck up in french....pretty boy torres yelling at yaya(who i swear could play in the NBA, as he has never caused a foul in his life!!!)....i swear, if tevez comes in and scores the lone goal, this will have the makings of a wwf wrestling match...totally scripted....

Can't believe Balotelli panicked on his 1v1 vs Cech....should be 1-0. Shocking Lampard pass on that one. I think Tevez comes on for Mario and scores the winner....1-0 City win and Vince McMahon would be proud.

yea...super mario took a really bad angle and cech took a terrific angle and got a piece of what was a poor finish in the end....mata should have out chelsea ahead regardless and nasri should have nicked one himself....thus, the draw so far...city have at least proven the aggressor of the two thus far...the sub at half leaves me scratching my head..but that's 'the wop' for you...probably another bust up in the locker room..let's see if balo is even on the bench watching the 2nd half

at least it is 1-0 for someone...and RVP hasn't even scored yet...haha....interesting the live odds are just +100 from -105 at kickoff....bookies must suspect Tevez comes in and completes the storyline. I will shamefully admit i switched to women's curling once i saw nasri hit the post...and arsenal on the laptop. But when i flicked over same old same....chelski playing for 0-0 and lonely torres can do magical stuff with the ball 40 feet away from goal...

3 zero-zero HT and one 1-0 with game featuring City, Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool and Tottenham...wow...maybe Spain is better for goal and goal scorers.

newsflash....silva is shot...something has happened to me somewhere along the line...kind of like a rookie phenom in an american sport that peters out after the allstar break....he just isn't he same and giving away way too many ez balls....hands down nasri's best game ever in a city uniform...thought we were gonna lose on a freak goal....tevez can still buzz off..but it was a classic pass...almost shocked nasri didn't put it over the crossbar!...should be interesting to hear if anything came from super mario at half.....and to all the mersysiders(insert chuckle)....pathetic...ps.the race is back on rolltide

i don't think it could have worked out better for myself...Chelsea, Tottenham lose and Arsenal wins. But i would give all three results to keep the liverpool up 2-0 in the 77th and lose outright. The last 20 mins of the games just worked out nicely..even with RVP hitting the post. Congrats on the comeback win ... it didn't look like anything was going to happen. Funny seeing Tevez reaction - i think he was dissapointed that the penalty kick was good - a save and he could have had a soundbite...just a plain idiot and i'd rather lose than have Mario and Tevez win for my club.

Funny enough the Torres sub was probably the dumbest move of the night ... besides Silva's first shot on goal. That team out there probably doesn't win the EPL but i think better days can come from this...funny i forgot about the penalty stats and wish i took it.

ps - i cannot find it anywhere on the internet...can you tell me who is in 3rd place in the EPL now? I have no idea :)

simply put you can blame silva on the italian. he's had 7 guys play over 32 games so far this year while united have just 2. at this level you have to manage your squad...some boys can handle it, some cannot.

btw, congrats on the win...was a fn gutting result for me seeing as I left work early to watch it...argh

a few observations

1) all those city fans that cheered tevez onto the pitch can go fuck themselves
2) how do you sub out torres, the hardest working player on the team in the match? fn insane!
3) drogba, just head to MLS now. You are done!
4) ramires...putting your hand up asking for an offside call when the guy is still in front of you is typical of a lazy brazilian that doesn't make it in this league

the race is definitely on....f***
