In my clumsiness again I seem to have missed a memo. Apparently Manchester City now rank among the big clubs, at least according to the words of Mark hughes:
I’m not surprised David feels a bit aggrieved with the situation, you always are when a big club is trying to sign one of your best players.
We already analyzed Mark Hughes’ behaviour in the past but things seem to become worse and worse every day.
You don’t become a big club because of your spending power, but because of your results!.
According to Sparky’s logic, who seems to have another Code of Conduct than every other manager and will continue his chase to sign Joleon Lescott from Everton, there have been many big clubs in recent years, but he forgets where these clubs have ended. [Read more…]

Yesterday’s game was a hard fought battle and in the first half Stoke City certainly tried to prove that they are better than what can be called ‘there are 6 or 7 teams who do not deserve to be in the Premier League’ and kept the game open for the first half hour.
But the experience and pure class of ManUtd resulted in another deserved win for the Red Devils, one which brings us to the top of the table for the first time in the 2009-2010 season.
And if we love to call Cantona ‘King Eric’, Ryan Giggs yesterday once more proved that he deserves to be called Emperor Ryan. Again he outperformed the illustrous and already forgotten Portuguese player who once used to tumble run up and down our pitch. Way to impress and show who are the Kings of England!
Before I write about the main problem we are facing this season, here’s some pictures of yesterday’s game.
After the jump there’s some smug pictures as well and let’s see if you can find an oddity in one of those. [Read more…]

I do not know anymore where I found this picture or what the frack Paul Scholes and Pienaar do/did but funny it is. Apparently Pienaar just had received a yellow for a foul on Scholes.
