The winners of the League Cup qualify for the Europa league.

Maybe Burnley are tiring now, seem to be sitting deeper.

Bit like a visit to the panto this. "Booo!" Maybe they'll give it a "He's behind you!" soon?

I think Hesketh has looked excellent, can see why Koeman put him in the side.

Kid has slipped FFS.

It's early doors and we're away from home on the back of 3 defeats. They'll settle in soon enough.

Burnley look well up for this!

I think we've been spoiled a bit with how quickly Pelle and Tadic settled in. Mane is just taking the normal amount of time. He has looked a bit lost occassionally but that's just the step up he's making.

Is he fit again then?

Appreciation?

Mods: poll - Is this thread i) pointless sexist drivel or ii) the funniest thing for ages?

This thread has gone so far downhill I that it should be moved into the Lounge, or closed.

Might be tricky to get everyone signing it but you should definitely give it a shot.

Boruc is a great keeper but he plays for Bournemouth this season. http://www.bournemouth.vitalfootball.co.uk/forum/category-view.asp http://www.rednblack.net/courtoffside/

Felt that way here too. Every single 50/50 and quite a few 60/40s in our favour went their way.

Arsenal players go down too easily.

Great run back by Long. He works so hard!

Gutted! Thought he was going to stick that away. Good start by saints though!

“Yes, because this training ground is fantastic, the stadium is fantastic, I love the city as well, my wife is satisfied, so if I play every week there is not any problem. The problem is I didn’t play long time now. " Sly old dog

I know what you're talking about WC but I think that the automatic red only applies if there is a risk of the feet of the tackling player coming into contact with the tackled player. In this instance fonte had his leg over the ball and his feet beyond aguero's run so there wasn't really any danger. Yellow for me but I have seen reds given for less.

I'm depressed too, but I feel like this is a bit of an over-reaction. The fact that City played so intensely yesterday was a sign for me of how seriously they are taking us in the league this year. We weren't going to go the rest of the season unbeaten and losing to a £350m team is no disgrace. Hopefully we will play with less fear against Arsenal.

City didn't let Saints play from the first second to the last. You can tell that they were taking it really seriously - Joe Hart had even gone to the lengths of growing a comedy moustache to put off our strikers. We were going to lose sooner or later, at least it was to a decent team this time. Hopefully we can have the right reaction against Arsenal. COYR!

Working now :-)

Anyone trying to watch on premier league pass? I just have "will begin shortly" at the moment. When does coverage normally start?

Seems like he is quite good at football. Sh1t taste in music though.
