Glad EPL has started.

Big match tomorrow Arsenal V Liverpool.

Novacastrian, I thought Newcastle did well to retain all their key players during the transfer window.

Overall, I think Spurs, Man U and Man City benefited the best compared to the Arsenal and Liverpool.

BTW, How are you all ? Just thought I would pop in and say hello.

Here is a decent list

Personally I would argue against Guardiola at No 2 given the short period of time and no real history of recreating great sides but there are some great managers in the list... IMO Ferguson would almost certainly appear in the top 5 of any list of world managers he has won 48 trophies across 3 different clubs and has won world soccer manager of the year on at least 4 occasions. His break up of the dominance of the Celtic/Rangers stranglehold in Scotland was certainly one, if not, the greatest achievement.

Hello. Arse v Pool will be a draw.

We'll see whether Toon did well. But thanks for the thought.

Don't want to even go there. We were rubbish ! Arsenal played very well.
Thats life, win some, you lose some.

Great wins for Utd and Arsenal. Very impressive.

Novocastrian

Utd don't play until Monday.

DaveLovesDee

I think he means the red Utd.

Good, a decent performance from Spurs, against admittedly a rather poor team but it was away all the same. What was with Hoddle's barnet though?

Novocastrian

Why didn't he say so then?

JamesM

Hopefully we kick on and win at home against QPR next week.

We go to Old Trafford the week after which will be an interesting test of the new look Spurs side.

I watched the United game yesterday and once again they have another good crop of youngsters coming through.

Novocastrian

Well that was not exactly deserved was it?

I'll take point though.

Novocastrian

Well you did press on. And your Fantasy Vice-Captain scored a good goal. Although Cisse didn't.

JamesM

Ba should have taken the penalty.

Novocastrian

Yes. But WTF, Cisse needs to get back on track. 5 whole games without a goal. Tut tut. But actually Ben Arfa should have taken it, he won the game for us. He's bloody brilliant.

Tangram

Terry banned for 4 games and seems like a few weeks bling. Hmmmmmm.

Will be interesting to see details of the judgement if that comes out.
