ok...posting an early play...man city -165 @wolves....well, sitting one step above the foot of the table(only cuz of goal differential)sit wolverhampton...and mick mccarthy's dirty ass team....and yeah i know city don't have the cleanest midfield in the world..but wolves are dirty bastards....anyway...city are coming off a defeat not to be taken lightly but not to be taken harshly either...a suspect red card at best(shoulda been yellow in my opinion..especially 4' into the game)put city in a hole early...yet still had opps. to score....10 v.11 is hard on anyone let alone top of the table clubs in the epl....wolves have a week from hell that started last saturday with a 2-0 defeat at chelsea...now they have a trip to old trafford 2moro v. man u....then come home to play city on sat....then back to molineux to play arsenal...not quite cupcake city...the struggle for points will be at an all time high...city actually have a week of no europa, so full attention will be paid to wolves...kolo should be back after a knock on the defensive end and the return of balotelli leaves mancini with yet another option of which to roll with....would be brilliant to see balotelli get a start up front with tevez...with silva and johnson on the wings....who the hell knows what goes thru mancini's mind...don't get his in and out feelings for adam johnson...maybe he just has too much talent of which to choose from(if that is even possible to say is a bad thing)...regardless, the talent level between these two is extreme and should be evident come saturday..cheers
gotta be honest with you...i solely follow the EPL (man city specifically)and the dutch nat'l team...as much as i respect the other euro leagues like serie a, la liga, the erevedise and the bundesliga..i don't follow them...of course i know many of the teams and their players...my knowledge of them is not enuff to wager on...there are others on this site that make hay following specific leagues and do well...i don't know one thing about napoli....i do know ac milan has an attack that could be brilliant, but they are selfish....and their backline is easily beatable...other than that analysis, i apologize for bringing not much more to the table...good luck if you come across a winner today...cheers
looks as if carlito will be spending the next 2 weeks back in argentina...apparently he is homesick and the knock on his thigh is bullshit..he is my favorite player from the last 5 or so years and this coming from a dutch supporter...but cmon...love ya carlito..but play the damn game....u are making millions...yer lil girls are not gonna go poor while u r off at city making plenty of coin... i am on the opposite side of reports of him stying the full contract.....i say this year is his last..anyway...a front line with a newly healthy balotelli and silva and johnson on the wings should still be plenty to catch the wolves off of a late game blow up v. man u....i guess lazy ass ade comes in at some point ...but..who needs him...his play is so robotic.....was wondering...all week why the line kept dropping...now i know why...makes the value even greater...city have one of the better 2nd team squads in the league that could compete for a title regardless....cheers...another cupla units on city at -135 now..cheers...
looks as if mario balotelli will be getting the nod...mancini claims though not 100% he needs to start playing full games...one thing about balotelli, he won't come roaming back to the midfield ala tevez to receive the ball...he is more of a center forward..not down playing tevez at all...love the guy...but he puts to much burden on himself...this game will be won by the city midfield...with a plethora of silva making the cogs work...cheers
see that now...but i live in the u.s...don't matter anyway...i have many brothers....and lucky enuff one is located in london(bookies everywhere) and another is located in LV(bookies everywhere)...so i took the opening line of -165 with my brother in london...then emailed him back to put more on it at -135..and he will get another call this evening to put more on it at -125....cheers...
yeah...i can appreciate a great footballer no matter who he plays for....hope that's not too hard to understand...i think giggs and scholes are terrific too...drogba is an incredible finisher....andy carroll will be a rermarkable goal scorer in the epl for years to come if he keeps his head on strait...they do what's best for their respective clubs..i am not a supporter who hates....i love the game to much to hate....do i root against them when they play my team... completetly...but i certainly understand brilliant football when i see it...cheers..
I can understand and respect that. I, however, can't like Tevez for how he has treated my United. Silva looks a class-act and I am certainly anxious to see if Balotelli can hack it in the EPL. I am very glad you told Bellamy to get out because he was a twat of the highest order. I can't stand Adebeyor at all either, but I certainly can recognize and respect brilliant players.
sure we can agree to disagree on many a player...as i will feel jilted too when carlito leaves..and that will be coming sooner rather than later...but one we can absolutely agree on is adebayor...he is just too damn lazy for me....and has no speed at all..how can a center forward be so lax?...balotelli can be a star, so long as HE wants to...am loving this city line down to -115 at this moment....apparently wolves are the new champs.....normally such movement would get me worried...but wolves love to hand games away...and this will be a defining moment in the city season whether they can perform w/o tevez as the lead man today....cheers
when i figure out what was more pathetic and embarrassing my pick or the city performance today...then i will come back and let u know...what it comes down to is this....i am begginning to think the pundits, punters, and casual observers where all right...overpaid team with no cohesion and worst of all... NO HEART...quite unfortuante...cuz they have all the talent in the world...i guess tevez is the 'it' factor...cuz mancini proved yet again why he should be sacked at x-mas...the all time sub with zaboleta for adebayor is still bending my mind...this one is gonna take a bit to sink in...cheers
