Torres offside goal

mwhahaahaha . That is so bitter sweet

edit:
no giggs even on the bench today. Shame to see that, no doubt the man city fans will chant something about him being off at a hotel

 

[Vladamir]

I think you'll find I made that gag a few posts ago

Anyway here's Torres' finish

Fernando Torres scores, flagged offside vs West Brom

hmm the picture is fucked lost HD and normal itv is blurred? just me?

 

[Vladamir]

The ITV picture's shit here too.

 

[cHodAX]

Wtf is with ITV's camera angles? The elevation is all wrong, not getting total pitch width coverage when they zoom out.

Dire mate, fucking amatuers.

 

[Influenza]

Blurry as shite here aswell.

 

[cHodAX]

Using HD cameras and downsampling it to PAL standard resolution very poorly it seems, the amount of picture noise and artifacting is shocking.

 

[megadave]

it started off as standard definition but changed to HD at some point for me

 

[Vladamir]

Oh shit son, Carrick

 

[Embattle]

Carrick strikes

Riiight now we need another 5 and i need some rapid nail regrowth

Looks like we might stay up this season. Despite that being very good news it would probably mean Ged the Red staying for another season. The Villa should consider including suicide kits with each season ticket for next year. Really don't like the man and can't see him being a success. Or at least he'll need a whole lot more £24m players to get close to the top four.

Darren Bent is fantastic, just fantastic. The best goalscorer we've had since Dublin (pre-broken neck). It is no co-incidence that Sunderland have dropped like a stone since he left. Although I like the club it is quite nice to think of Bruce and Quinn in a sweat after all the things they had to say about Villa.

Ditto Holloway and Blackpool. They can definitely do one back to the Championship, the guy is a grade one motormouth.

Man utd looking a bit rattled ATM with city pressure, especially yaya who has been immense

 

[cHodAX]

Scholes and Carrick not at the races at all, poor on the ball and off it.

 

[Vladamir]

Oh Scholesy!

 

[Shagrat]

Scholes king of tackling strikes again

 

[Embattle]

You can't have one part of PS without the other.

 

[Fast]

stupid and needless /shrug

 

[cHodAX]

Bad bad tackle. Just glad it was thigh height. Defo red, no complaints. City far far better in the 50/50's so far.

 

[cHodAX]

Carrick is a lazy fucker, he just doesn't present himself to take the ball unless it is gonna be easy.

 

[Shagrat]

Super mario has had a decent game as well

A good few times he has been static when City needed him moving Vidic, not impressed tbh. City have massively outplayed us in central midfield though, until Anderson came on we were clueless.

 

[Corran]

We been piss poor today.
Scholes red, yes. But they both had high feet with studs showing though. Scholes was just slower getting there.

No giggs has cost us. We needed him when scholes left.
And Berbatov. oh my fucking god. Miss of the season followed by disappearing from the game.

Calamity carrick is amazing though. Guess the hope we had seen the last of that was to much.

 

[Vladamir]

Looking forward to Rio's twitter rant in about 20 minutes

 

[Corran]

Dont deserve a thing, heartbreaking game to watch this. needed hernandez on earlier as Berbatov was never gonna do the job. Out the 3 trophies we going for this is the one I care about the least, but losing like this is awful.

and wtf happened at the end there????

 

[Raven]

Good to see Carrick is back. I was getting worried he had been replaced by a body double a couple of weeks ago.

 

[Shagrat]

haha what did balotelli say to Ferdinand at the end to wind him up?

 

[cHodAX]

No complaints, Carrick v Toure is dogshite v dogsbollocks. We didn't do anywhere near enough to get a result.

Death knell for Berbatov I fear, just like Van Nistelrooy a handful of misses in important matches is going to cost him his place at United. How the fuck Carrick got a new contract is a mystery to me though, four good performances a season is not enough, I have a feeling that he is schlonging David Gill's missus.
