When attackers run into the box before the penalty is taken, a goal kick should be given
When defenders do it, it should be an automatuc booking

Damn, I love Tim Vine
This is what Sam Allardyce sees in the mirror.
LOL. Seeing him sink lower and lower in his chair was pretty hilarious today.
Lucio was diagnosed with “a complete tear” of his ankle ligament. Which means he's expected to miss several months.
We missed it anyway, we're obviously not used to taking penalties.
He does?
I hear Conte showed them countless tapes of Milan 2011-2012. That dive was straight out of Boateng's book.

If you did, Tiote over Cabaye.
Lol twitter is so pathetic. Now that our goal turned out to be legit, they're clinging to an offside call that led to 'nothing'.
Deal. You don't even have to tell me his name, I'll sign the papers right away.
WAIT! Anyone but Macheda!

Oh but the offside! lol, that was the best part of it.
It came off the defender.
But I guess you're right, we won that game because of that offside call.

Wtf you want him to get hurt? I don't even wish on Pepe to get injured, and he is a bigger JT than Suarez, JT and Barton combined from my point of view. Seriously Valdes hate is going overboard now, Julio Cesar better than Valdes? HAH.
Tito isn't going to come out and say Valdes is the 15th best in the world, he wants to raise Valdes' confidence. And no he isn't better than Casillas or Neuer, but I would still rather have Valdes than anyone else.
edit
And that stat about him having the 2nd worst shot per save ratio or whatever, can you blame him when every team plays counterattack and its usually 4 attackers against 2 or 3 defenders, where nearly every goalie would concede.

So do they officially count those pens as assists for Hazard or is it just for Fantasy? Always thought they didn't count those.
I know some websites don't count it.

Messi's alt, I knew it! jk but come on man valdes leaves his line way too much on counters. Kinda like that noob friend that holds down y and then is pissed cuz you chipped him, lol. Was kidding about T Hawk but he is more consistent. Im not worried b/c if VV stinks it up this year again, even the Catalans will turn on him. I want Bravo the dude on Sociedad. btw, Tito > Pep...

Nope, forgot about that. Will tune in now.

Maaaaaaan you could have said Gilardino and I would have agreed and lol'd. Prince is too cool to dive #swag #superiormoonwalk #getonmylevel
IN OTHER NEWS LOL AT TITLE
Best player in the pre-season so I'm hoping for him to explode.
This is how you rock a light beard/stubble. It helps if you're beautiful like Principino.
Personally, while the injury is terrible, I am quite glad Roo is injured because right now he is not on form and if he is available he will always be in contention for selection, but as he is not available it will force the team to adapt and learn to play with Shinji and RVP. Ultimately the best situation would be a formation whereby we can use Rooney, Shinji and RVP and get the best out of them. It might mean a drastic change to the way we play, but if we can get all three ticking properly the we will have a good campaign I feel.
Arsenal fans, I've got a great suggestion for you. I think you're going to love it.
Just hear me out. Joe Cole. It does make sense if you think about it. Had a half-decent season in Ligue 1 last year with Lille, he's British, he'd be cheap (£2-3 million) and he would be very popular with the fans. Ok, wages might be a problem but Wenger could convince him to take a pay cut, if not he can pay all his wages. I reckon he'd be a hit with you guys. You'd also be doing your old chums Liverpool a favour by getting him off our books. But yeah, HE'D BE GREAT FOR YOU.

Another Cavani tease, Marotta? You rascal.
God, why is he bringing Cavani's name into this again? Even Dzeko is unlikely.
Buy now, and get Charlie Adam for FREE!
Of course you do. Get your Liverpool shirt ironed for today. You're one of us now.

Guys, my North American launch 60gb PS3 is dying.
Any rich oil czar in footy-GAF want to buy me a new one?
This shit and we're probably not going to get a striker? Tough times, guys. Tough times.

Bought my 360 one year after launch and I replaced it no fewer than 3 times (twice for red ring issue).
My PS3 has served me well. It's the reason I'm going to stick with Sony next generation, I reckon.
When I booted it up this morning it was working like a charm but I know its days are numbered. Keeping an eye out for deals. Might alternatively wait to see if there's a bundle with Fifa 13 at 199 or whatever the current price is. I really don't need a new controller and all that shit though. Just give me the goods.
I hope there's a price drop with this new model, though, but I could do without it being a ghetto ass toploader. Stay classy, Sony.

Hmm stokes set pieces are gonna be interesting

Match of the Day is compulsory viewing for all premier league fans.
If Eden Hazard doesn't get player of the month, there is something wrong with the voting process... he's been brilliant so far. This guy is the closest thing to Messi in the prem... I knew he was going to be good - but i didn't expect him to hit the ground running this quick... amazing acceleration, amazing pace, ball control. Him, aguero, mata, silva taking the league to the next level. Loving the collection of younger players at Chelsea... Oscar, Hazard, Lukaku, De Bruyne, Marin, Sturridge... hoping Hazard keeps up this form cause its great to watch.
And what a performance from my team - Everton... for once no one is injured and the engine is ticking... and I felt the game really changed after gibson was taken off... I don't think Moyes is going to play 442 again with Jelavic and Mirallas up front and Fellaini in the def mid role. Fellaini has to play as support striker... the funny thing is you would think they would just pump balls up to him all day long but Everton put the ball on the deck and played some great stuff for the three goals and for the first 60 minutes Everton were all over Villa.

Chelsea are going well, again, at the start of the season. But the real test for this new team and Di Mattaeo is what I dub 'The November Curse'. Going back over the time since Mou left, Chelsea commonly begin to break down going into November before repairing themselves and finishing decently in the spring. I first noticed it under Scolari, and it continued to happen afterwards, including last year. If they can get through the winter decently, they'll be right up there to win the league considering their start.
