English Premier League 2012-2013

United's defense does not look good. Need someone to play with vidic in the middle. Carrick won't do. Need a keeper too - too indecisive and not physical enough. Should throw some cash at swans to try to pry away vorn.

Really find myself pulling for Newcastle this year.

AVB hasn't lost his touch.

Hazard looks good. Nice signing.

What a transformation for Chelsea. And to think Marin and Oscar are waiting in the wings. So far I'm liking them to win it all. They seem to have all the parts they need (except perhaps Hulk) and a coach who knows how to get the best out of what he has.

Liverpool looks like they have life again. Incredible free kick by Suarez, probably the best I've seen after Roberto Carlos' wonder goal years ago. Their finishing ineptitude and defensive gaffs will hold them back though, as will the money they wasted on Henderson, Downing, and Adam. The kid Sterling looks promising and Allen very steady.

i didn't get to see the united game. did rooney get one studs up to the quad? 4 weeks out for a flesh wound? must have been pretty deep/ torn muscle.

He was on the ground, Rodellega came down from a high kick and planted on then slid off his thigh.

It looked like a full thickness (right down to muscle) skin tear about 3/4" wide and 5" long across the inside of his mid thigh.

I was watching that, it was freaking ugly...really bad gash.

Agree on Liverpool and Chelsea. It should be a fun season.

I don't know. Vorm is suspect on crosses too and as good as Vorm is as a shot stopper Deheah (sp?) is as good. I do think Vorm has the respect of his teammates more so than Deheah.

The injury to Rooney could not have come at a worse time for him. He was kept on the bench as a reserve because Sir Alex (according to many ManU blogs) was unhappy with his condition and his approach to training. A four week layoff with that type of injury is not going to help Rooney find his form.

there was a story on brendan rogers before one of the liverpool games talking about what he did for swansea. i like him. maybe better than dalglish.

just watched liverpool vs. man city. old news but like the looks of liverpool minus the skrtel mishap.

he's certainly not the best, but i'd take him over what they got. de Gea is too lanky and not strong enough. Add that to his indecisiveness and its not a good thing. I think they thought he would grow into his body, but so far its not happening. I want a guy like Scheichel, they just don't grow on trees.

Agree on the strength but he is getting better.

I cannot wait to see Julio Cesar at QPR. He was amazing a few years ago but has been full of howlers for Inter the last couple years . He is such a character though and should be fun to watch. I expect him to fail but I would love it if he is successful. I just think it was such a risky move. He doesn't seem like a good fit with the EPL.
