ya know the drill...blackpool over 2'...8/13..very large...already have city +511 on sunday...fair size bet on this one...realize i am a huge city fan....but the blinders are off fer this one...city have owned chelsea last 3 matches played...i can only pray the players ignore mancini and play their own style of football and attack....expect dzeko to replace balo after his ridik red card on thur....cheers
blackpool scored 4 goals in the first half yet it is 2-0...i played 25 years+ of soccer...i think i have to go back and re-read the offside rule...cuz i think i have to have about 25% of my goals taken away.....albeit the one goal scored by pool was a phantom pk...of course howard webb is officiating so why be shocked there....
well looks like ancelotti does not want to 'go for it' today....with carlito out fer city and balo sitting in mancinis doghouse now.....chelsea sit anelka AND drogba???....hmmm....interesting tactic...i will believe mancini is fer real if he doesn't look at nor play balo today...rumors are a drift that he threw luggage at balo in the locker room after the kiev game thurs nite.....i swear the 2 were meant to drive each other into madness...
my brother gave me some great dirt last nite/this morning....he told me to take a good look at mancini and see if he even looks at balo today let alone play him...he is insensed about the red card still...and has been ranting sense, even with the public apology balo put out the day after....hahaha...this team is disgraceful sometimes.....emm..seems like ancelotti is okay with a draw if it happens..with the lineup today...it's a major statement to keep both anelka and drogba on the bench....i have 3 separate tickets with city at +522, +511 and +496.....i am all in with both fists.....why not?..with both decisions made by both coaches to go with their 1A lineups(so to speak) i give the underdog every right to come away with victory....i admit readily that carlos was a major factor in the last 3 victories v. chelsea and his bulldoggedness will be missed...but chelsea have not set the world afire this year and me thinks something is amiss with ancelotti not starting those 2....we will see....good luck whichever way you roll...cheers
mancini: your italian inventiveness leave marconi and tesla rolling in their grave at the moment...your stubborness knows no bounds....not to play balotelli up front with dzeko is mindless....dzeko has been quite an asset today...CLEARING THE BALL OUT OF OUR OWN PENALTY AREA!!!....why we play 3 holding mids and a WEAK milner is insanity...???...silva is trying to do his own impersonation of carlitos but no one is carlos....here's an idea....and to quote sean penn as nice guy eddie in 'reservoir dogs'.."first things fucking first"...give milner and his useless counterpart(i swear they are the same person)gareth barry the rest of the day off...bring in adam johnson and swp to roll up and down the wings....keep de jong in at all costs...this is important, as he is the 5th defender in a very solid back line....and around the 70-75 minute say bye-bye 2 ya-ya and put balotelli in and suck up yer pride.....then maybe we will give chelsea a run.....the only reason we are 0-0 at the break is the silliness of the OTHER italian on the opposing side of the pitch inexplicably not starting either of his 2 world class stirkers....i really can not stand italian soccer..it bores the hell out of me...counter attacking soccer belongs in serie A...not the EPL..cheers
arividerci mancini....have fun on yer summer cruise around the mediterranean this summer..cuz it's over....in the 82' only after going down a goal do u decide to play football by bringing in aj and balo....quite silly no doubt...if spurs ever get their act together(and don't rule out an ever charging and changing liverpool side)the 4th spot is theirs....not only was that effort and result disappointing...it was downright embarrassing.....and it starts at the coach on down...the shieks will not stand for this result nor the rest of them....and god forbid they get embarrased in the fa semi's(which is totally possible)mancini will get sacked on the spot...stop the madness...give ian holloway a raise and a free ride from the seaside to manchester to let these world class players PLAY..cheers
