Darlo Uncovered

Ozil to Arsenal for £42m. I can't believe Arsenal are going to spend that sort of money. Amazing signing if it happens.

Yes it was absolutely dire. I was probably expecting too much really. Moyes and Mourinho not exactly renowned for exciting football.

I wonder how Chelsea fans would have reacted if Benitez had lined up with those sort of tactics last season.

Were there chips?

Lost again today...

Looking forward to this Utd v Chelsea game.

Rooney starts. Interesting...

Great result in the end against a decent side. Credit to MG for changing it around when they were starting to get on top.

From what I've seen so far there isn't any great difference in footballing ability but the discipline and organisation is much better at this level.

Can we still do this? Probably not but it would surely destroy they Aussie's mentally if we did.

City losing to Cardiff wtf?

It's like Mancini never went away.

Thought this was funny as well.

Fifth test starts today. A dead rubber but it would still be nice to make it 4-0 and demoralise them a bit more given how close the next series is. I'm hoping to see better from Cook and Trott especially.

There you go. ;) http://evostikleague.pitchero.com/results.php?month=8&divisions=&divisions%5B%5D=7449&cups=&cups%5B%5D=731&cups%5B%5D=732&cups%5B%5D=733&cups%5B%5D=734&cups%5B%5D=735&cups%5B%5D=692&cups%5B%5D=737&cups%5B%5D=738&cups%5B%5D=739&cups%5B%5D=740&cups%5B%5D=741&cups%5B%5D=742&cups%5B%5D=...

Looks like Willian will sign for Spurs and they are in talks with Roma over Lamela. Haven't seen him play before but hes only 21 and scored 15 goals last season so he must have some talent. Willian looked quality in the champions league vs Chelsea. Franco Baldini has been the signing of the summer ...

Apparently he's been given the job on a permanent basis.

Surprising, but fair play to the guy I suppose.

Looks like Bale to Real almost a done deal for £93m plus Coentrao.

Incredible business by Spurs.

Back in the Premiership, Fulham are assembling what looks a decent side. Berbatov and Bent could be as good as most pairings if on form, Parker in midfield now and Hangeland at the back. Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2 Will be interesting to see how patient their new owner is. I had Jol down ...

@ The Toon. Could be a long second half.

Carragher talking a lot of sense on Monday Night Football but he's making my ears bleed.

This thread has more posts than the one about the actual match.

That looks scary.

Wonder if Fellaini will end up at Man Utd, although I can't see where he would fit in to be honest. Can't really understand why they want Baines either. Good player but seems a bit strange when they have Evra.

Thought I would start this for discussion now the season is underway. Seems like nothing much has changed so far. United continuing where they left off, Mourinho's Chelsea getting the job done efficiently, Arsenal woefully short of players, Sunderland still hopeless. I'm expecting Man City to destro...

Not as premature as 11 days like ours did though! Maybe there's something behind the scenes he doesn't like?

Or maybe it's because they were s*** last season, still s*** this season and he's realised he isn't up to the job?

Lost 4-1 at home yesterday. Christ.

Wonder if they will actually sign anyone now. Probably some 16 y/o left back from the French third division.

Just watched the Cleverly-Kovalev fight from last night. Kovalev looks like an absolute beast, completely destroyed Cleverly.

A s*** sport played and watched by thugs, posh c**** and repressed homosexuals.

Possibly. Thing is, he's been dodgy for a while now. Maybe the hype has gone to his head (and shoulders).

So happy that it's finally nearly here. This has felt like the longest pre-season ever.

I can't see that myself but it will be interesting to see what happens if they struggle early on. The younger generation of fans have never known anything other than Ferguson in charge and constant success. I've already seen a bit of discontent on forums about some of Moyes' comments and the lack of...

I can only assume it most be some strange attempt at mind games which for some reason all managers feel the need to engage in as soon as they take over at one of the big clubs.

Either that or he's bricking it.
