I remember Jose talking about how he likes to play "wingers on the wrong foot" and as Mata's the only left footed attacking midfielder we have, he'd be a certainty for the RW in a 4-3-3.

I think that's the first time I've ever heard taking a shot as an injury risk.

He's done stuff like this before, he's a wind-up merchant. Edit: Had no idea WUM meant wind-up merchant...

Journalists have taken even further steps to solidify their sheer ineptitude. Chelsea want Higuain headlines less than 24 hours after "So it's Rooney or bust?" "Yes." Incredible.

Don't believe a word he says, Ian McGarry mk2.

I finished Breaking Bad a while ago, but I can't wait for the end. I keep reading the Breaking Bad subreddit and getting excited, I have just over a month to rewatch the whole show again before it comes back on August 11. Can't wait.

I'm sure he's been mentioned, but of arguably available, proven strikers, I would give serious consideration to Dzeko. He'd be a better option off the bench than both Torres and Ba, he may even be our first choice with Lukaku off the bench, but he's a proven goalscorer in the league and has scored some vital goals for City over the last couple of years.

Really solid, good, logical signing. Exactly what we needed, on a free, and out of the blue. That's our FA/League Cup keeper sorted!

Definitely not. Not sure what the logic would be behind signing Benteke considering he plays a remarkably similar role to Lukaku.

Dans La Maison took me completely by surprise, I wasn't expecting much but I thought it was really good

No Mikel, Romeu or Ramires.

Not for me. Grown up with Chelsea through my Dad, never even considered another team, not even Cardiff, my most local team. I will say that some tweets and articles and posts on here do make me angry though. We all have our favourite players and favourite managers, but they always come and go, that's football. You stick by your club more than you stick by the club's personnel. That's how I see it.

On current form, Cahill is our best centre back. Centre backs for Liverpool should be JT and Cahill. Against Swansea Ivan showed he is more than capable playing centre back when needed, but he is a much better right back, and after how well Azpi played this weekend, Ivan needs to up his game a bit to avoid losing his place.

I hate NBC for what they've done to Community so I can't treat anything they ever do in positive light ever again.

Oscar for me, what a player he is, was unlucky to lose out when Ivan got sent off. Mata, Hazard, Ramires close behind.

Nothing will make up for yesterday, but we really really need to smash them on Wednesday. Can see Marin getting at least 30 minutes at the end, but if he was fit enough for the bench yesterday he could well start. Turnbull Dave Cahill Luiz Bertrand Romeu Ramires Moses Oscar Marin Sturridge

The Newsroom is one of the best new shows I've seen this year, started rewatching it this week, absolutely fantastic.

Mikel - Ramires as a double pivot has so far been excellent, the only issue is that Mikel has never been the most mobile of players. Mikel has been excellent so far this season, but on Tuesday with Shakhtar attacking at pace towards him, he couldn't keep up, so at some points Ramires was often deeper than Mikel as Ramires is a much better form of cover if a quick counter attack is on. Agree with an above poster, a mobile central midfielder to provide cover for Ramires is needed for January. Romeu is cover for Mikel, but I'm not completely convinced on his mobility either. As much as I didn't like Meireles, I think selling him may have been an error.

Housemate is a big Watford fan, asked him to keep me informed on how he's doing. Seems he's almost a nailed on starter every week, played well too. Got sent off last game for a 2nd yellow after kicking the ball away, but he's only 18, he's still learning. Definitely has a bright future.

All three of these things are amazing! Can also +1 The Cabin in the Woods. Absolutely loved it.

Well tonight went some way to making up for our loss last night. City currently bottom of their group, 5 points behind 2nd place Real Madrid. The only advantage they have is that Ajax and Madrid have to go to the Etihad, but they will need some sort of miracle.

Frustrating game. I didn't think we played overly poor, it's just they played completely out of their skins. Cech, Ivan, Ramires (when he moved to the middle) and Mikel deserve praise, all impressed. Not sure why Lampard started in the first place, Cahill didn't deserve to be dropped in place of JT (think Cahill should be first choice on current form). Patience with Torres has completely run dry, shouldn't start on Sunday but know he will. This isn't a complete disaster thanks to Nordsjaelland, have two back to back home games that we have to win. If we can beat Shakhtar in two weeks, and Shakhtar can beat Juve matchday 5, then we could be through safe and sound. Lots of ifs though. We can get out of this. KTBFFH

Just spent about 5 minutes just watching that GIF over and over again. Little genius.

Finished The Wire. While it's not an absolute favourite show, it's definitely up there with the best I've watched. Breaking Bad next!

Not sure if this has been posted, but it's worth a read - Liverpool related. http://richardp1975.wordpress.com/2012/08/24/full-kit-w**kers/
