    Portsmouth V Burnley 12:45 Home (Should be a good game, **** or bust match for Pompey)

    Aston Villa V Hull City Home
    Blackburn V Liverpool Draw
    WestHam V Man Utd Home, I have a sneaky feeling West Ham might pinch this one

    Haha, it's actually sickening to think that!:D

    Nah, Chelsea will win this one
    City are far too weak in defence. And even if City take the lead, their defence is just too shocking for words, and with Drogba and Anelka lurking like wolves with blood in their nostrils, it'll be extra difficult.

    City's run of draws will come to and end... and with a loss rather than a victory.

    I think Chelsea could annihilate City. However in football, the result you most expect never seems to happen.

    Just as well as it was nowhere near a peno in the first place.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,493 ✭✭✭eddiehead

    Aye, Pompey are going to need some slightly more competent firepower than that bloke if they're to stay up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,589 ✭✭✭✭Necronomicon


    Pompey score after Burnley battered the door for an hour. Borderline offside though from the Herminator.

    I thought Heskey'd get the nod alright. With that midfield his tracking back will be important.

    Dindane the useless scores.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 88,972 ✭✭✭✭mike65


    Wolves one up - Jody Craddock goal machine defender.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,153 ✭✭✭everdead.ie


    Dunne with a goal for villa must be near enough top scorer at this stage for them;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,792 ✭✭✭✭JPA


    Bullard in trouble, knee gone again it seems.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,153 ✭✭✭everdead.ie

    Villa goal: Matt Duke comes out of his area to head the ball out - to where sub Steve Sidwell just happens to be warming up. He quickly chucks the ball to Ashley Young, who throws in to James Milner, who beats the back-pedalling Duke with an outrageous lob. Milner, who has scored five goals this season, immediately celebrates with Sidwell.

    Lol

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,806 ✭✭✭✭kippy


    Liverpool are back on form after their temporary blip of the last two games.
