Great result tonight after a shaky start.
Never knew Yaya Toure was such a dirty fecker.

Was thinking exactly the same thing.
So first he kicks Mata while he's down,and then he does that. What are the three referees on the pitch and fourth on the sidelines are doing that they can't see it?
'its great to see him back'
Don't know what the officials are doing.
fecking hate the bastard Yaya.

It's been really strange league so far..
M.United:8 Arsenal:2
M.United:1 City:6
Tottenham:4 Liverpool:0
Chelsea:3 Arsenal:5
Chelsea:1 Liverpool:2
Chelsea:2: City:1
I guess that's why PL is the best in the world. So unpredictable.

Just read that Santos is out for 3 months.
Without Sagna and Santos/Gibbs, they'll probably play Vermalen at LB. City will murder that Arsenal defence

Santos is shit though.
He's really come into his own the last few games. Produced performances that Clichy hasn't managed in 2 years, in fact.
Everton at home, Wigan away, Fulham at home and Norwich away?
Aye, you must be delighted he came through such a rigorous examination of his defensive abilities.
All I'm saying is that there's been a dramatic improvement.
Don't get me wrong, I wasn't chuffed to see Santos and Mertesacker coming in, but after a shaky start, they're becoming solid players for us, at least for our squad. Santos being out for 3 months is a big blow for us since we have no other fit full backs.
The "slap" wasn't a slap at all, he put his hand to the side of Mata's head and Mata slapped his hand away. Which made the gesture look more aggressive than it actually was.So first he kicks Mata while he's down,and then he does that. What are the three referees on the pitch and fourth on the sidelines are doing that they can't see it?
The little nudge with his foot was nothing either.
It all makes him look like a dick but definitely nothing worthy of a booking.
The only genuinely nasty moment from Toure was the attempt to rake Ramires' achilles.
The problem is the Santos injury will mean their best CB plays at LB.
and the Yaya incident. The slap wasnt an issue.
The little kick out wasnt malicious or dirty IMO, but it was silly. If the ref sees it and if the opposition player wants to make a meal of it, it could easily be a red.
He did a lot of little things to annoy the Chelsea players yesterday, but didnt think any single incident was bad enough to be singled out for criticism

You have got to be kidding. You don't raise your hands to someone's face, I've seen players getting automatic red for that many times.
Just because Mata didn't fall down clutching his face and demanding attention like many would in his case, doesn't mean it didn't deserve punishment.
He doesn't slap him. He puts his hand up to his face and Mata knocks his hand away hence the appearance of a flailing hand.
Nothing in those Yaya incidents.
He's a sneaky git regardless mind
