I hate watching Arsenal when they're like this. I don't know what's going on but they're not keeping the ball, affording them too much space, and just sitting back. Very edgy right now.

Montpellier deserve a lot of credit. Seems like they've been waiting for this game at the expense of their league campaign. Full of energy even 85 minutes in.

nervy game. our away record/performances in the CL needs addressing.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013

I see the city fans were singing about Munich again tonight. I wonder if there will be any media coverage of that, after all the media coverage of what (didn't) happen at Old Trafford at the weekend.

Re: Football Season 2012/2013

Find some of the after game interviews hilarious.

Mancini dubs the Crouch goal at the weekend 'Something from the NBA'

Come off it Roberto, If it had been Tevez doing it you would be fine and that's what annoys me. His players can spend the season diving around penalty areas but as soon as one dubious decision goes against him he's furious.

Since when has football been about feeling contact and going down? Hearing a pundit say the player is entitled to go down after feeling some contact is an absolute joke. If the contact is not sufficient enough to take you to the ground then it is a dive! that's all there is too it, have we come to a stage of accepting diving now or something? I'm sick of seeing replays of penalty decisions been based on contact and hearing commentators claim ''well he's been touched so it's penalty'' and more recently hearing ''Welbeck took a nick there he should have went down'' Commentators encouraging players to dive? Am I hearing thing's right?

It's laughable to see ultra-slow motion replays zoomed right in to see a tiny nick on a guy's shin. Seriously if you have to go through all that then you know it's a dive for heavens sake. Doing this week in week out makes it completely acceptable.

Football is turning into a debt-ridden horrid sport. Used to be tactics involved attacking, how to defend a certain player and what to do from set pieces.

Seems like the modern tactical sheet runs along the lines of.

- If you get a knock in the box, go down
- If you come under a hard challenge, feign injury in an attempt to get the opponent booked.
- Waste as much time as possible in the dying minutes when we are winning by laying on the ground with a sore leg (1 Metre from the touchline)

I enjoyed the man city game. I couldn't understand kompany ducking, but equally thought Hart should have saved

I think (hope) man City will improve.

Yes there's still plenty of hope yet as at least you have got your hardest game on paper out of the way.:)
